that's how you trained it to be. Needed to keep the top down a bit longer to keep it even with the rest.
did you by chance strip leaves from it? the mostly look small or minimally developed. That too can cause stretch trying to seek light.
and who knows. if growing other of the same strain you might be able to find enough similar traits / differing traits that you could distinguish. Which package has fewer seeds? should help out, lol. or, if you grow more in future, you'll know retroactively.
Relying on what he breeder says certainly isn't 100%, either.
