Same strain ( Northern Lights Auto) different effects?

[GenieMan]

I was wondering if the same strain can produce different effects? My first Northen Light Auto grew more Sativa and now my second plant that I'm growing seems to be growing more Indica.

Yes. You have two different phenos.

Thought so thanks for answering my newb question lol.

Yep that's why Photoperiods are king because you can clone them . Cloning makes sure its the same effect.

As @2Bad implied, growing weed from seed isn't like growing tomato seeds, where you pretty much know all the plants will be the same and have the same kind of fruit. A cannabis strain (or actually cultivar) usually has more than one pheno, and also has variations within the phenos. Some will ring your bell, others will be meh.

When you find a pheno that rings your bell like Quasimodo, you want to be able to grow it again, from clone. Autos don't allow for that.
