Is this sativa or indica? Is there a way to tell

So I may have mixed up my seeds during germination. Only one of the seeds sprouted. The two choices are 1. Big bang By Greenhouse seeds, which is indica dominate. Or 2. Power Flower by Royal Queen seeds, which is sativa dominate. from the beginning I've been thinking power flower but realized I may have mixed them up. Any thoughts? Thanks everyone! 2 weeks into flowering btw

typical hybrid, indica traits, sativa attributes. no true way to tell, all hybrids will display different phenotypes. sorry to not be of more help, but i think you're just going to have to call this one a maybe, unless there are other attributes to the strain you may find later in flower.

That's what my initial thought was. I'm a newbie so I just thought I'd ask. Either way I'll be satisfied. Thank u!

I'd go with the Big Bang. Darker green foliage, bushier, compact growth. I also notice some nice straight edges on some of your big fan leaves which is indicative of an Indica pheno. I just finished a few Sativa doms myself and they grow all over the place without training. Looks good though :weed:.

I think that sativas are generally taller and stretchier and indicas are short and bushy but I don't think there's any sure way to tell without the genetics handy.

My indica dom hybrid looks more like a sativa than the sativa dom hybrid i'm growing. I don't think judging the leaves is reliable unless
it's obvious with fat leaves or skinny leaves.

Click to expand...
Unstable pheno's grown from seeds are all over the map.
Just because the seed bank says 60/40 Indica/Sativa doesn't really make it so.

Yeah it's probably a hybrid. Those fan leaves look very indica in some early pics, and the bidding ones they look thinner, and like the plant stretched a bit more than indica style... A good way to tell if its mostly one way or another is, shorter bunched together plants are normally indica, as well as there fan leaves are massive in the middle, and normally 7, and not 9. Sativas are tall as fuck, are more spaced out, and stretched looking, take long as fuck to bud, and finish and normally have 9 spaded leaves which are far more skinny and long.

The more indica it looks, the lesser flower time you will probably need, and more sativa, the longer. You should be able to tell an estimated percentage when you smoke the final product, and in its last days and time-line.

Indicas are known for being shorter, bushier and having thick leaves and sometimes a deeper green, sativas are taller and have thin finger type leaves
