Does anybody else ever grow out seeds they find? Show those little bastards off!

I'll start things off with the seed that got me back into growing. Last fall, I bought this bag of "Blue Dream" and took a picture of it to brag to all my friends, because this was the cheapest pot I'd ever bought in my life. I think it was like $15/7g. It was not good.
But it had a seed in it, and I was bored, so I put it in some dirt to see if it was still viable. It was, but it got off to a sloooooooow start. Here it is in a hempy bucket ~30 days:
It autoflowered on me, which could have been my fault, but it wasn't under an unusual amount of stress, so I think the commercial grower is actually running autos. Not that there's anything wrong with that. That said, the final plant came out pretty decent, and if I can brag a little, better than the commercial smoke I got the seed from. Not great, but it had a pretty low bar to clear.
Nothing spectacular, but it got the itch itching, and got me motivated to get a tent set up and start growing again.

It just dawned on my stoner brain that there is a whole other part of RIU outside of the seed and strain forum that I often forget about. If this is the wrong place for this thread, somebody chime in or pm me and I'll move it to general or something.
That said, the reason I'm so baked this morning, and what inspired me to start this thread, is some bagseed. I found 13 perfect beans in an 1/8 of Dalai Lima, which is described as S.A.G.E. x SSH. The buds were pretty good, but breaking them open and having these pop out one after another was like Christmas morning. I've paid top dollar for breeder's packs that didn't look this good:
I cracked one and sent a couple out, so far 1/1 female. I have another one going now but it's too early to tell.
I topped this one and put it in the flower tent pretty early to time it with the rest of the grow, and it responded well on both counts.
This is it at flip:
and at harvest: 
.
Some of the leaves turned a crazy dark purple, and then they started doing this. My best guess is magnesium deficiency coupled with the purple fade, but it was too close to harvest to do anything but flush and take pictures.
Someone hooked me up with some Bodhi Soul Mate pollen and just for schnitzengigglen, I dusted some of the lowers of this one a few weeks into flower. Curiosity got the best of me and I started poking around the buds, so I knocked a couple out too early, but I ended up with 4 shitty looking seeds and 4 pretty good ones:
And so the saga continues...
It's still drying so too early for a real smoke report, but I dried out the lowers that I picked apart looking for seeds, woke up this morning and smoked them, and, well, made this whole fucking post.

Here’s she is.I could’ve done her more justice but kinda neglected her and it caught up with me..Came from a bag of gg4..looks to be sativa dominant and frosty.. she’s around 5-6 weeks into flowering.
