White Russian Growers

E

e4ian

hello, ..if you notice tho' i say "same smoke." re: ' ..is the same smoke'.
but yes logically there will be different structures from seeds and i like all growers have experienced this many times but NEVER have i thought "mmm that bud was more ak47 or mmm that one was more ww- PERIOD!.
if you meant that the smoke was like that too we are from different worlds bud. e.
p.s
in mid 90's big bud was known as being unstable i.e you may get 3 strong from 10 seeds,-all the same smoke tho' not one genetic here n one there-apologies tho' cus im talking of an issue i was going to raise as im sure a lot of ppl/newbies think they'll get a world of colours from their strains! ..mind you theres so-- many--- vendors nowadays, ..who knows.
ive currently got 2 fem skunk c/o sam the skunkman,with 1 being very tall and 1 a lot shorter.i doubt 1 is more acapulco gold tho'.

Hey man! no prob bro...you are right in a sense, the different phenos are not night and day like one is blue and one is red...lol..but very very easy to tell apart..and very different......I have a shitty camera, but give me a couple hours and I will try to take decent pics of the 3 different phenos, really the 2 different phenos, the other is so slight, you probably couldn't tell by my shitty pics.....But you will be able to see what Im saying...hopefully.....afterall a pic is worth a 1000 words.....

Im about to harvest them all tonight, but before i do, im washing some pots, repotting, and throwing some bushes into 12/12 to take their place, going to be a busy night, but I will try to get around to posting the pics soon....If not tonight, Ill post them in the morning....

But, just to be clear, I meant, different phenos...not different smoke, (PERIOD!), although, Im quite sure they will be different in that aspect as well...Soon you will see exactly what Im saying. White Widow Dom. .....AK Dom....and then a nice mix of the 2, and after taking them out of the HPS light, its clear that my favorite is the nice mixture of the 2.....second fav is the Ak dom...... Believe that!

"but yes logically there will be different structures from seeds"

....and just for the record, when I say different pheno's...im not talking one plant has 3 branches and the other has 2....lol...

"ive currently got 2 fem skunk c/o sam the skunkman,with 1 being very tall and 1 a lot shorter.i doubt 1 is more acapulco gold tho''

....and why would you doubt that? I have never grown that cross before, but pretty sure its not an IBL, so DO expect variations and different phenos...Just cause you cross 2 plants, does not mean their offspring are going to be the same, just like if you have 5 kids with the same chick, Im sure some will look like you, some like her, and some that have traits you both have....Would you agree? Im really not sure what is hard about this.....BUt hey, I'm listening.

I have had SS white russian for about a year now. Cant beat it. good high, easy to clone. 3 week veg and 9 weeks flowering produces a bit over 2z's per plant under a 600 watt hps. Next on the list is SS. Chronic

i have grown out WR from SS many times and they rock every time

Last selection round we got 3 differnet phenos, all super stars.

2 phenos are 7 to 8 weeks producing rockhard indica buds and the last is prop what pepol here call white widow 9 weeks and producing massiv colas

The only problem i have with WR is that they can produce nanners late in flower but it is not a problem when you hold the big fat sweet smelling buds up against it.

Newer try airy buds only rock hard well rounded buds

Very easy plant to clone, flush and grow not the best yeilder but she is up there with Powerplant, Ice just much better flavor and smell she looks much better to

Give her plenty off light and fertilizer and she will do magic

This is the AK dominated pheno...


...and the White Widow dom. pheno....

Widow pheno is more dense, and a very nice yielder...not HUGE but nice....The density bumps up the yield...

The Ak pheno looks frostier, buds not as dense but still very nice flowers...not airy at all...Looks to be a heavier yielder too....

I also have a pheno that looks like its a nice mix of both phenos, my camera wouldn't be able to pick up the subtle diferences...But its my fav, my 2nd is teh Ak dom, and then the WW....I got all 3 as a keeper, but will probably slim that down to the Ak and the Mixed phenos....about to run all three from clones, so Ill know more in about 9 weeks.....

The White Widow dom pheno looks to be the most common, I had 3 of them, 1 Ak pheno and the 1 mixed pheno....all very nice, with way above average yields, but not a monster by any standards.....I think I can get 1 zip for every week in veg, which I can live with.....

I wish my camera was better so you could really see how dank these buds look.....The AK pheno has as much crystals as Lemon Skunk, its got so much it looks fuzzy....

Overall, a very nice hybrid, that delivered exactly what I was told it would.....The yields could be a little higher, but all in all good yields can be expected even if yoru room isn't dialed in....My room is pretty stellar, and did not see any male flowers at all through the grow.....I took 'em to 9 weeks.....

Overall I'd give WR an 8/10 and the Ak and Mixed pheno being a 8.5/9 out of 10....A keeper in my book.

I agree, i got 3 phenos.....all very nice, as far as whats best, I think it would come down to an opinion....I like the "Mixed" AK/WW pheno the best, then followed closely by the straight up AK pheno, and from what i have seen from other Ak pics, its very close.....which is cool.....

Just from my small batch, it seems that the WW pheno makes up about 60% of White Russian beans, the AK pheno is about 20% and the Mixed is about 20%.....
 
Just for the fuck of it.....Here is a straight up White Widow I grew a couple of times....Its a keeper but for security reasons I lost the cut..she was really nice, dense buds, 1 zip per week in veg EASY....


Looks very similar to the White Widow pheno in White Russian.. .. This plant yielded 5.5 zips with a 3 to 4 week veg in a 5 gallon nursery pot.....under a 600 in soil.... Shit is so dense you really have to watch out for mold....I lost a big top to mold, so would have yielded closer to 6.5....

I've had only good experiences with WR. First time I thought it hermied, but I was a spacecase and was actually viewing slightly stressed plants from too much h20 which caused slight change in pistil color. I really like it...great high, big yield, and, at least in my experience, they were not airy at all. Would recommend.

White russian Pheno 1

White Russian Pheno 2


White Russian Pheno 1 timmed (3 oz on less than 2 ft)



the first pheno tastes and smells like peaches and mangoes. the second tastes and smells like peaches and mangoes with some skunky dankness thrown in. Both phenos that i have yield crazy. the first better than the second. the second has airy-er buds than the first and the hairs are in fuzzy cluster-like balls. The high is spacey and slightly energetic at first. At times, I really dont know what's going on. Then, after about a hour, couchlock. I definitely smoke it at the wrong times. No doubt primo smoke. The only real thing that i dont like is that tolerance that builds up pretty quick.

I've grown WR and gotta say it is a beautiful plant. Easy to Grow. Nute tolerant. Great yield. Very strong.

My only knock is that the high is has no subtleties at all...it is straight ahead punch me in the face strong. Prolly not enough sativa in it for me I guess. Ain't gonna be very creative after a vape bag of this strain.

First time I grew it, I made myself retarded for two weeks every night before I put it down for a different strain. It's great in rotation with other strains....cause every few days I wanna be slapped stupid.

Ticks all the boxes except: interesting high. And will be growing it again in a few months.
