Is this a pure Sativa, or just a slow flowerer?

[trivergata]

I'm growing 3 plants from bagseed, and after 20 days at 12/12, 2 are in full flowering, one is not really keeping up. I think, based on leaf and general structure, that she is more Sativa leaning than anything I've grown before, but I thought I'd post some pics here and see what you guys think.

Just for reference, here is another plant I call "Agent Orange". She's been in flowering for the same amount of time and in the same room/lights as the other, but is in full bloom:
"Agent Orange", close up:


But here is my skinny, finicky "Supermodel"

"Supermodel", here you can see the large amount of long, thin leaves around all the little "buds"


Anyone have any thoughts?

Nice job with the bagseeds! They look healthy... The only problem with growing bagseeds is you know nothing about the original strain or the plants parents...

Take notes on your plants and keep on flowering... 'Supermodel' is definately sativa leaning...

could you try 11 on 13 off? might help push those buds out, pure sativas sometimes need this hour less of light to really take off. Just idea like Ulysses said theres no way to know about it's genetics.

I'm afraid going to 11/13 might mess with the other ladies. Time is not really an issue for me, so if she takes longer, so be it.

It sure seems that Supermodel is a highly Sativa plant. It doesn't look like a 100% pure Sativa, but certainly it has about 80% Sativa traits. I would love to know how she turns out. And if time is no factor, let her go a long time. With as much Sativa genes are in here, you will have to be patient if you are going to leave her in 12/12. But she may be well worth the time and effort.

I don't know what strain they are, but they sure look secksie! ^_^

This makes me want to grow some bag seeds...hmm...*rubs chin hairs*..hmm...

Can anyone tell me what strain mine is? I haven't a clue...clones from a friend. He told me this is Grapefruit:


And this is Purple Kush:

Unpredictability is why people gripe adout bag seed grows, but to me, that is half the fun! Don't get me wrong, if I could easily get my hands on good genetics, I'd do it in a heartbeat (if they were affordable at least). However, I am pretty happy to turn freebee-seeds into killer herb!

Agent Orange is a strain that was bred crossing orange velvet and jack the ripper.
Super strong stuff. The nugs are just beautiful.

 

[trivergata]

Believe it or not, that's just what I call it - it's bag seed!

I can't wait to see what she looks like when she's all done!

jepcb25 i was reading a crappy magazine called heads 1 day and agent orange was in thier they said it was california orange from the dutch, but now that i think about it i also read the whole breeding and what went down to make agent orange in high times so who knows(wouldent agent orange from (cant remmber names) be alot more sativa leaning?.... either way its problley good, what were the buds you got them from like(lots of seeds, or just 1?)? the sativa plant looks good man sometimes they really can get going those buds will get alot bigger, id imagine ,usally sativa hybrids can make a nice sized bud. what kind of smells are coming from it? has it streched alot in the 20 days it kinda looks like it.... defanatley a sativa look, hopefully the buds will be trippy for you. you might really find that these sativa's get you high, and everything else gets you stoned.

Don't get me wrong, I love a good Sativa as much as the rest of you.

As far as the one I call "Agent Orange", it was, as I understand, from NCal or Oregon, and is bright green with more orange hairs than I've ever seen on a bud. It was grown carefully, because it took breeaking up an ounce to find 5 seeds. The buds were sweet, with a hint of pine and a touch of fruty flavor.

The best part is they kept you going for about 4 hours. Kinda a Cheech and Chong moment, where 4 hours later, you friend looks at you and says "I've smoked alot of weed, but I've never smoked anything like that before!".
