The strain I'm referring to is primarily sativa, although there is also an indica. It is an outdoor strain and is hard to spot as cannabis to the untrained eye until it matures and begins to flower. Once it is flowering it is easy to tell its cannabis though. The leaves are webbed and look different than the typical indica or sativa leaves.
Compare:
webbed pot plant
webbed leafs
typical sativa leaf
typical indica leaf
classic sativa plant

THOSE ARE NOT MY PICTURES!!

species, darnit, not 'strains' though i guess they are used universally nowadays. Sativa is a species, not a strain.

There are three species of Cannabis, C. sativa, C. indica, and C. ruderalis. Ruderalis is the least potent out of the three; generally you will find sativa, indica, or hybrids thereof. Indica has somewhat broader leaves than sativa; indica grows short whereas sativa grows tall. Ruderalis has broader leaves than sativa as well. There are 'hybrids' so to speak between different species.

There are differences within the Indica and Sativa species, especially with hybrids. Within each species there are many 'strains' or 'cultivars' or whatever you want to call it, that although they are the same species, they have different growth characteristics and different potencies and scents. Just think of an analogy to tomato plants. Most tomatos belong to Lycopersicon esculentum, but there are many variations within. Such as Beefsteak tomato, cherry tomato, Italian tomato, plum tomato, pomi di mori, pomme d'amour, pomodoro, Roma tomato, sunny tomato, etc. Just because all the tomatos are Lycopersicon esculentum does not mean they are exactly the same.
Get my point?

LOL@thread.

This reminds me of a friend who in highschool walked around with the leaf of a Japanese Maple that grew outside of the school, holding it right infront of his chest. He wore a huge sh!t-eating grin making sure to pass as many administrators and teachers as possible and when seen he would say "Japanese Maple" and smile more. If you are not familar with the Japanese Maple or it's leafs they looks just like the marijua leaf. It's even funnier that this kid was a known druggie(he was suspected of dealing and a mutual friend that he was always around was busted with seven individualy gramed bags of opium...heroin trafficing on school grounds:roll:.)


Oh the days of highschool.

I get your point, but earlier you said sativa as a strain, although i knew what you were trying to say, it was just worded weird.
Family>Genus>Species>'strains/variations'

It's not dope.
I know the name of the plant in your pic and I can't recall it.
That's mainly because I smoked way too much dope.

I know it's not my argument, but I asked for pics first, so I'll chime in and say: that's pretty darn cool - I would probably walk right by it unless the breeze was blowing in my direction

Yeah, I bet if I posted a similar thread as the OP asking if it was pot, most people here would say no. Once it starts to flower it looks a lot more like pot and the smell is always a dead giveaway.

I agree that it certainly doesnt scream Cannabis, but I can tell because I know what to look for as far as commonalities in the Cannabis family. I suppose I should try growing that stuff in my front yard or along the levees 'round me and see if anyone notices, no?
