Bag seed score! Big buds

I save all my bag seeds. I have some that are probably 15 years old. All random. I like to germinate 12ish random seeds out of the hundreds in there a season.
I have been semi successful with these (50% female rate) and the quality is always mid, however I do usually grow a plant from a quality vendor to ensure I have something decent to smoke.

I am now on year 3 of doing this and think I lucked out with something from my mystery seed jar.

I generally get good yields from my novices technique but this year I started really measuring my nutes which may have contributed to these buds but always just water from the hose, quick mix of nutes in the AM feeding, sometimes give a second depending on conditions of the day.

Just so happy with the size of the buds so far. About 90% cloudy 10% clear still.
I have never been so resistant to harvesting a plant before lol! Shes a beauty and want to leave er go for as long as possible.
Not a clue on the strain but I can tell you the leaves are very thin so its some kind of Sativa...

The maintenance guy in my building grows on the roof and in his closet, like me. He knows everyone in the building and I guess we're not alone. A few weeks ago a tenant moved out of the building and left a big sandwich bag of seeds in his apartment. The maintenance guy took them and hooked me up with a good 200+ seeds, which I'm guessing are random seeds picked out from shwag.

I'm curious if you see variance in your plants and to what extent... I'm wondering if they might all end up Mexican outdoor plants with some good variation.. I don't know what your sources are and if they're from kind buds, mids, shwag, brick, etc.

I'm stoked to try mine at some point when I have more space/time

I can imagine she would be huge if planted in the ground

All 4 of these are bag seeds. (Little one on the left started flowering 8 weeks before the rest and than stopped. Must of left it in a dark spot.)
I grew 3 last year + 1 peyote cookies (3/4 turned out AMAZING, one was complete brick weed that grew to about 7 feet, but made OK bubble hash!)
I'll see if I can find some pics from last year. Although the peyote cookies blew the others out of the water, that purple!

This is the one I threw in a slit in the ground. Literally 1/2ft wide of dirt. The girl is ~9ft right now.
My house faces North/South with heavy trees so I only have a few sweet spots as my wife takes her prime real estate for the actual garden lol I move the ones in pots to get maximum sun. I am about 500ft from Lake StClair, so that might be helping?
