Same strain, but they don’t look it

So allegedly these are the same strain (Apricot Kush), same breeder, same pack, same soil, feed sched etc. They don’t look anything alike. The one in the left had its main stalk snapped by a squirrel, but has bounced back like a champ. How much variation are y’all used to seeing?

Part of the crap shoot of popping seeds.
One reason I don't really pop seeds anymore. To many undesirable plants compared to fire keepers.

Look into F6 F7 crosses from mephisto, some strains they have had F8. These have even less ruderalis, running 4 now all the same height and identical looking except one is a little taller then the other 3 but they look identical. They are bout 40 days in. Edit- Sorry thought this was autoflower forums

Weathered Islands Cannabis, a breeder out of British Columbia. They are an 8 week finish and I don’t doubt it as the buds are packing on weight nicely :)
cool cool nice I was just asking because I’m into autos and one of my favorite breeders just released a strain called apricot Kush

They look like the same strain with slight differences. It is common to get multiple phenotypes from a pack of seeds.

A high percentage of "breeders" these days slap crosses together and sell the beans, sometimes untested even. There will be a lot of variation.

The only place to get clone like plants from seeds, to my knowledge, is Serious Seeds. Simon puts in the work to create stability, which takes years. This method is not going to work when you plan to release 40 crosses a year. So depending what you are looking for do a lot of research before purchasing seeds.

Most are untested the only time i have the same plant and seed's is my own one's. I seed's this year just to try them just like l i thought they are small plant's breeded for indoor's will only get top's 5 ft.My plant's 8 to 12 ft .The other plot biggest is 4 ft planted same time all store bought seed's.Only good thing is got 6 Afgan hash plant seed's reg. and only 2 came up just looked at them got a male the 4ft and fem. so that worked out will use seed's to acclimate to this weather here 2 year's will have 10 ft plant's instead of 2ft or 4ft. I have better luck with oversea's seed's that's just me A outdoor grower from start to finish. No greenhouse that is indoor. Heart of Dixie

I literally get this EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. I pop two or more seeds from a pack

One is tall and lanky, one is short & squat. Literally every time. Just different phenotypes

That’s exactly what’s happening here. One presents lanky and sativa-esque while the other is squat and more leafy. They are both healthy so as long as I keep ‘em that way, we’re golden :)
