I think i got a very vigorous pheno, or I'm doing something wrong with the nutes/lights. but i had to get the wide angle out to get a full shot of this stretchy girl. i put her in what i thought was WAAAAAAAAY early. she was barely waste high and she's easily doubled since then. still no bud sites yet and she's DOUBLED. nearly head high now she's even showing light signs of needing more food.
I feed pretty medium light so this doesn't surprise me she's supposed to be a strong grower. i dosed her again pretty hard with powdered ferts today so that should fix that. but besides that this strain is voracious, absolutely outrunning the critical mass i started her next too. without further adeau.
Thats her in the middle between an OG and a holy grail.
Edit* for size comparison. the blue buckets are 18 gallon round totes. pretty big almost knee high.

Mine stretched more than my Critical Hog and Pineapple Expresses so I'm thinking that Boss Hogg has a fair amount of sativa genes. I dunno, does Swerve still post here?
I love the fact that I got a purple pheno though, I hope it is as potent as it looks and smells.

I havent grown boss hogg but Ive grown chem 4 clones and they stretch a lot too. A clone (topped) once and flowered at a foot would hit like 4 ft

I also have one of the purple phenoms. I thought it was my nightime temps, but it has only happened to one of my two boss hoggs. One of them(the slightly taller more sativa type) has started to look more and more purple. I will post some pics this morning. They have both just finished 8 weeks of flowerr with only a couple to go.
I have a 60-100x pocket microscope and the little frosty one is almost all milky trichs, with a couple amber, so I'm thinking the little one of these Hoggs might finish at 63 days and the other taller purple one, maybe 70+.

These first three pics are the slghtly larger one.
These two pics are the shorter frosty one. It seems like it will finish a week earlier than the other.

Thanks, the buds are hard as rocks. The cola is not huge. It is only 6-7", but all of the buds are hard as rocks! Even the lower branches. I would guess average yield maybe 4 oz. or so, but it is sticky, stinky and nasty. I have four clones going in the veg tent. I am going to LST one, crop one, and let the other two go. In about 6 weeks I will have space to run those in the flower room and I will do a yield comparison.

Those purple phenos of the boss hogg look amazing. I ran one versus the chemdawg from HSO. In the stink the department and yield HSO beats it. In the eye candy crystal department neck and neck both those strains were. But in the smoke department the Boss Hogg beats the Chemdawg. I was really anxious to run these neck and neck so they only got 2 week vegetation period. Would I run the remaining Boss Hoggs I have and chuck pollen to other strains..answer most definately.

Hey Calicat, how long did that Hogg take to finish? My little frosty one looks like it might finish about 9 weeks and the taller one looks like its going to go the full 10 weeks or more. They both just started busting some new calyx with new little white and yellow hairs. (no they are not hermies) It looks like they might swell a bit more these last 2 weeks.

60 day flower time. Took 10 representative microscopic fields and the average was around 4% clear, 94% milky, and 2% turning amber.

Your plants look really good, you must be perfectly dialed in with the soil and nutrients. What type of soil do you use?

Well-Known Member
Ty and I am not perfectly dialed in because eventhough I have grown over 15 plus years off an on there is always room for improvements. For seedlings I use light warrior. For the remaiining part of grow after I make my last transplant it goes into a mixture of fox farm happy frog, fox farm ocean forest, a little perlite, a little dolomite lime and sometimes strain dependant dress with fox farm marine cuisine. I also use fulvic acid as a foliar feed in vegetation and molasses in flower at around 3rd week of flower.

Thanks for the info. That smaller frosty one is at 56 days today and I planned on cutting her down in 7 days, the larger one in 14 days.
