What Am I Growing Here?

This is my first season as a grower, and in addition to the seeds I got from seed banks in Europe, I had a few that showed up in a couple of batches of budlets that I got from the local dispensary. Whether they were the result of an inadvertent fertilization or the plant doing a hermie, I did know that they came from a commercial-grade plant attuned to my local conditions. So I grew one.

And now I have the above. I'm in Northern California, and the plant has been outdoors since germination, approximately 90 days ago. It's about 30 inches tall, but would probably be 36" if I hadn't LSTed it. I had no way of telling whether the seed was feminized or not, and so had to assume a 50-50 chance of getting a female plant.

So yay, hooray, yesterday the plant starts demonstrating preflower pistils. So she's off to the races.

MY QUESTION IS: what am I growing? It appears to be Sativa dominant if not pure Sativa. Can anyone out there figure out the variety by looking at the overall plant?

Please dude nobody can tell you what strain you are growing by just looking at the plant in a picture. A general pheno is about as close as you will get.

Looks like a hybrid to me.

I was hoping it had a classic silhouette, or leaf proportion, or some such that would make the right expert stand up and say "Right! That's a [insert esoteric genetic pedigree here] . . ."

There's almost NO pure sativa anymore.

And this was an escapee from a professional grow operation in my town focused on productivity and not seed production. Maybe it's some sort of dwarf that they found convenient to grow. The fact that it flowered outdoors before the natural photoperiod has been reached (I'm guessing on this, of course) suggests that it might even be an auto.

You've already got half of the answer. What did you get from the dispensary that harbored the seed? Whatever that was is "Mom".

That's the thing with grow room "orgies", "Dad" can sometimes be difficult to identify.

It came from an eight of mixed budlets. It could have been anything.
