slimjim Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Hi huntersOn my last visit to the grow shop i picked up my supplies and stayed a bit for a chat, well the chat soonsteered to the new beans from strain hunters and i was hooked, if i had enough money on me i wouldof got Flower Bomb Kush, however i did buy the White Strawberry Skunk, i will come back for you FBKi promise.So as soon as i got home started to ph some water for them (wasting no time), only put 3 in the waterPH-6 left there for 12 hours.Soaked jiffy blocks in water PH-5.7 and sowed the seed, this is the morning of the 12th septemberthey were born on 13th then 14th and the last 15th which made me very happy, nice fast germination.Just before i upload some little pics i would like to thank Strain Hunters Seed Bank for the new geneticswe now have, and next to the reputable UK supplier where i purchase my seed and powder feed fromCHEERS DUDE PEACE BROS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinky Pete Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Hey man. You mentioned that you have to feed them everyday. Is that just what has to happen with coco or do you give them small doses on a daily basis??? I sprouted a bean in some coir that will be outdoors.

slimjim Posted October 26, 2013 Author Share Posted October 26, 2013 Hi huntersNow after 12 days more growth the WSS are looking nice, one not sure wrong with herThe conditions have changed slightly because i have a veg tent running now and for the firstweek it ran a bit cooler that the other and now has been tweeked so it runs almost the samebut with a bit higher humidity which is goodTemp 24c RH-65-68Feeding 0.5g/l hybrid GHSC powder feeding PH-5.71 of the WSS has claw like leaves and could do with suggestions to help.The other 2 plants are going to be topped, however to be honest i try to FIM them but it does notwork, at the moment 3 tops is the most ive had what is suppose to happen?Thanks for dropping in see ya soonPEACE HUNTERS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinky Pete Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Ahoya SlimJimI'm no expert and I am still learning my way around defficiancies and problems. If I had to guess I would say that its either over watering or over feeding. But please don't take my word for it. My coco experiment is coming along nicely. My 2nd set of leafs are forming and I'm hoping for some good "porn". LoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimjim Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 Hi huntersSince my last post in this thread i decided not to update because of lack of care that has been given tothese girls, and had a lack of branching (dont know what i done) and had bit of root rot so i repottedand just flowered to see what happened.They been in 12/12 for 5 or 6 weeks (i cant remember), one i pulled open the top to make canopy wider,she is the best smelling pheno really does smell like strawberry chews or candy, the other the buds are soclose and getting big im scared it will get bud rot later her smell is not like the other but still very sweet.As yet no male flowers so after the stress they been under this strain is slimjim proof (stable).Here is 2 pics of wss as they are now and closer to harvest i will do some more unless i get big changewith them and then soonerPEACE HUNTER 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamsbread Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 You've gone through some trials, but have some nice buds now. Root rot not nice Try to let there be a wet/dry cycle - letting the soil dry out before next water, this allows air to the root and avoids root rot.Adding some perlite to your soil mix, which will make the soil more airy.Watering at the start of the light cycle allowing more time for the plant to take up water, watering at lights out will just leave the plant siiting in wet and colder soil.Make sure to have adequate air flow in your tent to help avoid bud rot, use a oscillating fan to move air around, keep humidity at around 40 RHHave a good end of grow and be sure to let us have a smoke report too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrogs Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 WOW! Thanks slimjim,This thread is exactly what I've been looking for! I actually asked you a question on another thread as I noticed you speaking about it! Would love to know more about WSS, I've got a few pheno's with the hooking leaves, that seem to be growing quite vigorous, in terms of developing side branches, one short indica type one and a few that are different to the rest. Which of yours would you say were closest to the description of WSS, or showed traits that you felt were worthy keeping as a pheno? I also had the thing with leaves bending sideways, but it seems to be fading out as time goes. Mine are 4 weeks today, with 6 to 7 nodes each.
