It's just the strain and how their grown. Me and my mate are growing the same strain skunk and his plants are on his window sill. They have about 8-9 sets of leaves, but each leaf only has 3 fingers, which is wierd.
Mines growing under CFL's and its on its 5th set and already has 7 fingers.

Just the way its grown i'd think.

Saying that, on closer inspection of my plant the 2 newest leaves have 9 fingers.

Sativa varieties tend to have more fingers and thinner fingers. As far as potency goes the THC in sativas which are native to Africa do not degrade into other compounds such as CBCs which gives some people a more couch lock high. Sativas have a energetic high for most but there are people like me who become much more motivated when I smoke any kind of variety.
