Day 35 update..

Day 35 update..

Swelling up @ day 35.
I just started using Fox Farm's Cha Ching today @ 1/4tsp per Gal.

Pheno#3 is definitely my keeper. Without a doubt..
She is very tropical fruit scented with hints of perfume and citrus.

Pheno#1 is a nice smeller...much different than #3.
Much more earthy 'musk' followed by floral scents.

I'll get to pheno#2 later..she is a nice girl but just not for me. Too damn tall. But plenty of bud sites.
She'd be great if I had more room.

Niether pheno#1 or #2 are yielding quite like #3.
She is a powerhouse in this box, already as big as some hps nugs i've seen.
Very dense too.
Definitely the hardest buds i've grown with these cfl's.

Visuals:

(Box#1 - 3 x WS#3 ; 1 x WS#1 ; plus one WS#3 put in on 2/16/09 <- more info on her later)
 
Looking great no doubt.I seen the seeds never looked twice though.Now things seem to have changed.This stain from ur experience is impressive.Great bag appeal,good yield,nice taste,and nice high what more could u ask for.Great job yo.

deadzombies420, Thanks!..I think anyone that tries growing this strain stands a good chance of finding a great pheno out of a ten pack.

And for $1.79 per seed you can't go wrong.
I think Gypsy's has a few of these left.

d2g, these were vegged from clone for about 30 days after rooting.

D0MiN0, yes...more to come...see below ;)

DAY 40 UPDATE..


This is mighty pheno#3. Did i mention she's my keeper?
Her buds are nearly twice the size than either of the other two pheno's.
They are also very dense and hard when compared to the others.





I just gave her a final feeding...a pretty heavy one at that.
She ended up getting fed only twice with the FF Cha Ching.

I will start her final flush on the next watering.
Should i do a two week, h20 only flush? or a one week flush with a bit of Clearex, leeching solution?

Im going to let the other two phenos go for a bit longer...in hopes of them bulking up some more.

Pheno#1 has dense heavy buds like #3 but they are only a fraction of the size of said buds.

Pheno#2 is completely different in her flower formation.
Her buds are 'squishy', for lack of better terminology.
They have the consistency of a marshmallow. Not airy though.
Full bodied..but not dense.

Wow those are some beauties Kish!!!

Bet they are real stinky too!
 
I always flush,but prob not like everyone here.My last 4 watering go like this.
Mol water,water till soil is saturated,then i flush my last two.Doing this lets my plants use everything in the soil,my plants seem to just do better with this routine.And i get more color,witch I love.Do what works for u though.
Great looking White Skunk pheno.How long u letting her go?

Thanks Red!..They are pretty stinky, yes...so much more 'fruity' than what i had expected

dz420, i would like to take a couple of them down at day 50 and the rest at day 60, perhaps longer.
I'd like to compare the potency of WS#1 and #3 @ 50 days to the same pheno @ 60 days.
I have seven that all started flowering the same day.
I'll make sure to get a few group shots of the entire bunch before i take any of them down.

Also, i had a bulb burn out, so box#1 is running with a 6500k 23w instead of the 42w.
Been this way for almost a week. They all seem to like the mixed spectrum too!

Fwiw, Box#2 is now running 2x42w 2700k; 1x26w 5300k; 1x26w 6500k

So, my total wattage is a bit lower than what i'd prefer.
But, it seems to be flowering right along...so no worries!

DD, thanks. The pvc is 4" and the fan connecting to it is 100mm so they line up perfectly.

The fan is a scythe. Its 2000rpm and is 58cfm. So quiet! Virtually silent.
Get them here.

d2g, they are in 3/4 gal pots.
My next run of WS are in even smaller pots. I am also flowering them a bit shorter.
3 of them are currently in the boxes. One of each pheno induced to 12/12 on Feb 16.

Here is a pic of the micro scrubber in action.
Still a little ghetto. But doing the job.
I still have to build one for box#2.
