cali con's boss hogg

Hi RockyMntMan! Yours Boss Hogg were regular seeds, they weren't automatic, right? If so can you give some advise about when to put them into flowering by shortening daylight hours? I am just impressed seeing your girls were full of flowers at day 36 or smth. Tnx, man!

Yeah, they were regs. from a UFO freebie from the Attitude. I got lucky and they were both girls. I vegged them for 5 weeks under 18/6 and then put them into 12/12. They streched and set out a beautifull side branching and structure between day 5-10 in 12/12 and have been cranking buds since then. This is a ten week finisher, so this should yield pretty big! I took a cutting a week before I put these two in flower just incase I liked them.
I like them so much, I gave away 4 other cuttings last night so I could make room in my cycle for more Boss Hoggs. I am mothering the single cutting and it is 12 inches and ready to give up a few clones.
I can't wait to run 4-6 of these at the same time!
I didn't LST or supercrop or any other manipulation. It spreads itself out at flower and doesn't seem to need anything. I did notice it will drink nutes like crazy though.

Not long ago I ordered some stuff from Attitude and chose the same freebies. So what you share is pretty helpful :) I am considering of growing them in balcony at summer. Theese babies doesn't look like fast ones so I guess I should sprout them in a month and put under some fluos for the beginning of veg.
 
They are 10 week flowers. I just finished 6 weeks today, so a month to go yet. I am excited though! Hope you get a couple girls out of your regs.
 
Got 2 boss hog freebies. one was the biggest seed I've ever seen and one was pretty tiny. not sure if it just looked as such next to the appleseed wannabe but it looked really small. the little one didn't pop sadly, gave it a pre soak and it showed me a lil white tip but it never came out to play :(

This girl here is the appleseed wannabe bout to throw her in bud. i keep saying girl cause I'm hopin i can will it so. she's showing all the signs of a boy tho, she's grown twice as fast as some critical mass cbd crew seeds that i planted at the same time (thats the one in the side by side pic) i know u can't judge with different strains I'm just saying. she's also very very very dank right now super skunky and dank in veg has always been a precursor to male for me i get all excited thinking "damn if it smells this good now" BAM! plant wieners everywhere u look!!

She also clones like a dream in the cloner. 4-5 days and i got roots. thats usually a sign of incoming wieners, so I'm crossin my fingers cause she sure grows beautiful.

Today is day 45 in bloom for the Hoggs. They are swelling nicely! I have now noticed a slight difference in the pair. One has always been a little slower in growth than the other one. Leaf pattern and brnch structure and internode spacing the same, just one was always a couple inches behind the other.
Now the shorter of the 2 has become extremely frosty with massive amounts of trichs. At first I thought powdery mildew, (The leaves are white!) but upon closer inspection with a 30x magnifier, I saw 1000s of beautiful trichomes everywhere.
The taller one ( by about 3-4 inches) is still stacking and swelling, but doesn't have the same frostiness yet. Also the canopy leaves on the taller one are slender and sativa like, while the shorter has wider blades and seems more indica dominant.
Aparantly there is more than one pheno in the Boss Hogg seeds.
Will post update pics later this morning after cycle switch.
 
ya im excited to see the Critical mass its very hearty in veg. the boss hog is showin me fem pre flowers now, i almost don't believe it lol. she really clones in 4-5 days I've never seen any female clone so fast.
 
It's irritating that seed distributors have only been given one crappy photo of this plant from cali connection (as far as I can tell). The picture is out of focus, and looks like all leaf. It's also sad that the freebies appear to be tester subjects of an unreleased strain. If you (the breeder) have been growing a strain long enough to know its habits and vouch for its quality then you should have had the opportunity to amass better photos and more information about the plant than is provided.

Anyway, I'm just suspicious of these seeds.

I wanted to test out a new setup without risking the seeds I actually purchased, so I planted these instead. I got 4 different pairs of freebies and these were the ones I decided to blow.

Anyway, they finally surfaced today. I'm not sure if it's my current environment or what, but these seeds took much longer to sprout than I'm used to. I was getting ready to toss them when I noticed the tiny necks peeking through the surface. I soaked for 16 hours, then potted in FF Light Warrior soil. If I have my days straight, it took ~11 days to surface. Assuming all goes well, I'll try to share my experience when they get going.
 
Here are the two Boss Hoggs 48 days in flower. one is still swelling and stacking buds, but the little frosty one, is just getting smellier and nastier, with little growth change.P1010358.jpgP1010357.jpg


The other pics are of a single CH9 Vintage 2006. It has become the smelliest of all the plants in the flower room.

Here are dome more of the Boss Hoggs day 48 in flower. Couldn't pull them out for a full shot, but they are still kicking ass!
The little frosty one is smellier and has slowed considerably. It's almost as if it may finish before the other bigger one.

Thanks, I'm thinking about keeping that one little plant all to myself for personal. It smells dank! I got some more pics of that vintage 2006 in another thread I started yesterday. I have one cutting going and I'm thinking of running it again but with som LST to spread it out a little more.
 
The Boss Hoggs are still kicking ass! The smaller frostier one has slowed down swelling and seems like its just riding out the last couple weeks.
The taller one with the larger cola, is still swelling and growing. It definetly has longer narrower blades on the leaves and its stems are stronger and it looks like it is going to yield bigger thn the smaller one. Definetly at least two phenos of this strain.
The smaller one is so frosty, it looks like PM at first.
I hawkeyed both plants with a 30x today and not one nanner, hidden yellow busted sack, nothing. It looks like I made it without hermies, since the chatter on this site is CC gear is prone.
Anyhow, finished 7 weeks today and I am thrilled with both phenos! I have a mother, but I don't know which pheno I've got since I lost one of the two cuttings I took.
Either one is fine with me. Especially if it is stable and I've got a mother.

Looking good RockyMtnMan. Do both of your phenos have reddish stems? Thanks
 
Hi everyone,
Long time lurker, first time posting. I recently got 2 reg Boss Hogg seeds from an attitude seed bank purchase. I figured I'd give them a go. Here they are freshly sprouted. Hoping for fem's. I've got them in rockwool (I generally clone in rockwool, then move to soil -- working on moving into rDWC setup when I've got a couple more grows under my belt. I'll be keeping this updated as I know people are still receiving these seeds. Also in my tent will be GHSC White Rhino and some seeds I have from awhile back that were labeled "Blueberry x Trainwreck" that I received from a fellow grower who's been a friend and mentor. We'll see how it all turns out, but I'll stick to posting Boss Hogg pics here. Here's the babies:
