Has anyone seen this before? At the very beginning of the main, it's as if the vine collapsed into itself.

The plant is 18 days old. There is about 6 inches of vine growth after the point shown in the picture, so I guess it isn't that detrimental.

Looks like a ribbon vine. Not your typical ribbon however I had a section just like that when a plant ribboned on my last year.
Does the growing tip look normal or does it have a whole bunch of junk along with the regular stuff?
