Same Strain, Different Buds... Which is Better?

Two Mandala White Satins I have in flower right now. They're both about 6 weeks in flower but they look completely different. One has a bunch of leaves coming out the bud and the other looks more hairy. I perceive the hairy one to be more like the strain is supposed to be because 3 of the other seedlings that came before it had the same look. This new one looks way off from all of them.

Anyway, my questions are:

1. Are the buds with all the leaves in them going to turn out lower quality than her sister plant? If so, is she even worth keeping?

2. Anyone with White Satin experience the same difference between seeds?

3. What are the chances I got shipped 1 single seed from a different strain within my breeder pack?

Please see attached photos
Pix 1-3 Are of the leafy plant
Pic 4 is of the "normal" bud
Pic 5 are the two side-by-side.

Also, the pix of the "normal" bud are just a side branch, not the cola. But the pix of the leafy plant are of the main cola.

TIA

Just different phenos. Dont now bout the strain but u prolly got a mix of the sativa dominate and indica dominate. Its to be expected with large breeders. Imo

yeah looks wierd but i wouldn't git rid of her
fuck smoke it

Yeah, if ur gonna throw her out. Im sure i can make room for her somewhere. Lol

Haha. Thanks guys. Oh no, I'll definitely keep her, I guess what I really meant to ask is if she's worth cloning anymore? She won't be ready to cut for at least 2 weeks. After drying and curing, I'm thinking it'll be nearly 2 months before I can test her out compared to the others. That's a lot of wasted soil and nutes for her clones just to find out she adopted the inferior qualities for the strain.

But to answer the question, yes, the strain is indica/sativa but is supposed to be indica dominant. When she originally started budding, she looked beautiful. I just feel like she's getting a bit overgrown. I mean, I know I'll end up trimming those leaves while manicuring. But it just looks like the leaf-to-hair ratio is very different, and I thought that might make it less potent. Am I wrong? I have no idea how that works...

Nah, wont make it less potent. It really depends on the parents. I assume u wanna clone this late in flower? Ive hear people do it all the time this late. I would harvest then revegg. That way if u dont like the smoke, which im sure u will u can take fresh cuttings during the vegg state. Plus ur not out any soil.imo

Well, she already has 4 clones under her. I'm actually running out of room in my closet because I took so many clones from each plant. In the past, I've had problems with heat killing some or all of the plants (long story, and I have that under another thread). Anyway, I took a bunch of clones (6 total) plus I have 4 seedlings and 5 plants in flower and I'm maxed out to capacity. I took the 6 clones just in case something happened to a few of them so I would still have at least 3 plants to flower at the same time. Well, thanks to winter, I haven't had any losses. But I just know that when those 6 clones and 4 seedlings ALL go into bloom at the same time that I'm not going to have the room for it. My flowering spot has enough room for 6 plants and that's it.

But if you think she'll be all good, then I'll keep them all until I can find out. But next time, I'm not taking as many damn clones!!
