Malawi F2 or Copper Orgi?

I had some leftover seeds from a year ago and decided to pop a few outside this past spring. I put three beans down, all feminized copper orgi from Briscos bargain beans. Two came up so I decided to drop one more bean, Ace Malawi. I bought a pack from Dubi a few years ago and grew them out. One of the best plants turned out to be a strapping male. I trimmed it down to a few pollen sacks and let it go. When the time looked close, I shut down my fan and waited. I was able to gather pollen and created some F2 seeds. One of the female Malawi’s was fast flowering short squatty but healthy. Might have been me and over watering. Any rate, I seeded this fast flowering female hoping F2 would be smaller and quicker finish for outdoor in the North East US. I decided to pop this bean and put it out a week or two after the others. For some reason a few weeks into it, a pair of morning doves decided they were going to pull my small seedlings out of their containers!! WTF.... All were scattered around and I attempted to replant but only one survived. Which one?? I think the survivor is the Malawi, though the leaves don’t look quite right. I grew out the copper orgi last summer and it behaved like an indica. It finished nicely, good amount of bud (was seeded by a herm next to it) The plant I have now looks nothing like that. It’s also not close to finishing. I’m worried it’s not going to finish. This thing stretched more than any plant I’ve ever grown by far. Even the malawis I grew indoor didn’t stretch close to this. This thing grew high and can be seen over my fence. Buds seem to be weak though veg was amazing. Last week I noticed purple veins and added some epsom salt and a bit of potash, crushed into water.

I also seeded two strong female Malawi and have a few seeds from this cross. At some point I’ll pop those indoors.

Some jpegs of the mystery gal..

Leaves look very similar to the 2 Malawis I am growing. I'd say there is a good chance it is a Malawi but I'm not familiar with the other strain.

EDIT

Actually I think it is conclusively a Malawi unless the other plant happens to have similar leaves.

Y seems it must be Malawi. Any thoughts as to purple veins?

At least one of my Malawi (if not both) has some purple to its stems

The fat yet pointy look of the leaves is very telling, look at my lower leaves and you can see how similar they are to some of yours.

Blondie, your Plant looks Hungry. Pot it up if you can, it is no too late. Or topdress with some Organic nutrients and Compost. Or feed it a bit more Nitrogen to Green it up and stop Leaf Drop. Any remedy you chose will reward you with Better Buds at Harvest.

I added maybe a gallon of soil on the top and some nutes. Thanks. Hoping it perks up some. This is the first time I’ve used fox farm soil and not sure I like what I see.

She looks quite a bit better now after some soil and nutes. Buds are expanding some and look frosty. She is a monster for me. I may do one more watering with some potash and Epsom salt. Subu yours look great! I’m hoping mine will fill out like yours!
