Phenotype variance or a sneaky seed?

[UrbanGardner]

I am on my second grow ever. I am running Lemon AK Auto from Fastbuds. My first run I dropped 2 seeds and got 1 viable plant. It turned out well. This second run I dropped the remaining 3 seeds from my 5 pack. 2 seeds germinated. White (I used cocktail pics to differentiate) popped first and 4 days later Red popped. Both were planted from the same bag of soil (FFOF), same size pot(3gal fabric). Same fertilizer water schedule etc...

Today starts week 9 and the older they get the more different they look. Not only in size and shape but in color.

What my question to the group is: Is this a phenotype variance or is it possible another seed from a different strain got mixed in? To be honest I never really looked at the seeds to see if there was a major difference.

This is not a big deal but I want to learn.

As a reference. Here is a photo of my first plant at close to the same age. To me this kind of resembles white.
What do you all think??

Honestly I’d say either is a definite possibility

 

[Stormblessed]

When they r done if they r similar at all I’d say just phenotypes

Very common to get phenotype variation from hybrids, especially.

If they smell and taste the same, and have the same effects, you'll have your answer.

 

[UrbanGardner]

At this point they smell about the same.

 

[Stormblessed]

Probably just slightly different phenos would b my guess

 

[Jackalope]

If they smell alike then it is probably just phenotype. So many new smells around these days. The chances of 2 different strains smelling the same would be rare. They look a bit young for lots of smell so things may still change.

Different phenos of the same named strain can actually be 2 completely different plants with different characteristics and effects.

Nice grow.

That is an interesting concept. I would not be opposed to a more mellow pheno. My first plant is an energetic bullet in the head. But that is what I was looking for....

Here is an early photo from week 5. The plant on the right is red. It was larger and bushier in veg.
