Mainline with WWxBB

Wanda is looking great! How tall would you say she is, from bucket to tip? Really love how well formed she is already, those branch arms are going to fill in great. Props!

End of week three in flower and Wanda is just jammin at the tail end of her stretch. So far, just water in flower and no signs of deficiency. Buds are developing nicely along each of the heads and should develop into very nice, continuous colas. Spacing is good so need for additional training this week.

Thanks for peaking in!

She is definitely coming into her own and has been so much more cooperative than the Hashberries I have attempted to Mainline. Its been a lot of fun and really enjoying the process. Should be a good show for the next 5-6 weeks!

From medium to tips I'd say she is about 14" give or take - I'll take measurements tonight when the lights come on and update this post. She has been incredibly cooperative with very little training - its all her man!

Looking forward to the rest of the run as she fills in and bulks up.


Appreciate your guys support and encouragement. Hope you are enjoying this run half as much as I am!
 
sure looking good there dude, listen, i'm sorry to kinda maybe put a dampener on things when they are going so well, but is this a pheno of the WW x BB you know already?? My reason for asking is my last grow was WW xBB and the biatches hermed on me at around 8 n half weeks in of the 10 i'd planned giving them. Only plant ever to do it to me (thankfully) but thought I wud warn you if you didn't already know they were prone to it... btw, my beans were from Female Seeds.

I've heard alot of hermie talk about Female seeds. Another grower in the 250 club grew their Pure AK and all 3 hermed on him.

Wanda got all the attention this morning and I think the other girls are a bit jealous. No before pictures, but she had all her new branching (lowest two nodes on all her heads) pruned off, trained to more evenly distribute the heads and make the canopy consistent and watered. That should be the last of the pruning until harvest. Three of the sixteen heads are a bit less developed thane the others and these are now trained to get unobstructed light exposure and such that their branch is higher than their twins - maybe encourage dominance in order to catch up.

So far so good with the new soil(less) mix - one feeding with a fresh dandelion tea in veg otherwise just water. No signs of deficiency yet but keeping an eye out for any.

Appreciate the heads-up man! This is a Female Seeds WWxBB that I got as a freebie so I will keep an extra close watch on her. Three weeks into flower and so far so good. Never had a hermie and don't want to start now!
 
Just took Wanda out of the flower room and did a thorough inspection of all sixteen heads - she is definitely not packin! Add "easy inspection" to the list of Mainline benefits.

I have heard a lot of people talk about hermies and Female Seeds (as well as CaliCnx) though I don't remember ever hearing WWxBB come up before. Always a good idea to look the ladies over every few days anyway - they love the attention and will reward you for it.
 
Apologies for a lack of updates to anyone who has been following this thread but life has really gotten in the way the past couple weeks. Work, travel and house guests have kept me from spending the amount of time I would like in my garden.

Anyway, Wanda is doing well in her fifth week of flower. Still getting nothing but water with no amendments - man I am loving this new soil mix! I am going to start adding molasses on her next feeding and will continue for the final three weeks. Of the sixteen heads, thirteen are pretty consistent in size and three are looking much thinner. I will get a close up of the buds for the next update.

Great work there Yankee, you got some good canopy control there, going to have a nice lady on your hands there :D. Keep it coming, congrats on the first ML with the HB as well mate, puff some for me ;)

looking great yankee, i have my WW clone ready for my mainline experiment though i think i may use a scrog net to keep some distance between the cola's and let some extra light in down there.... is that even feasible? or may i just as well do a scrog if i do it that way??? every time i think 'that's how im going to do it', summin else crops up in my 100mph head and plans get changed....lol

Scrog works well with ML. Nugs uses canopy rings to great effect.

I have seen a few Mainlines using SCROG but not sure its necessary unless you were going to 32 or more heads. Sixteen heads in a 5 gal pot is working out perfectly for me.

Thanks KC, high praise indeed! Puff, puff pass!
 
Been flat out here for the past month or so so continued apologies for the lack of updates. Wanda is winding down her flower stage and I am very pleased with the entire process and results. I am guessing another week, maybe two at the outside before harvest. Leaves are beginning to show a lot of yellowing as expected and I am amazed that she has grown through veg and flower with nothing but water supplemented with molasses in the last four weeks. I am very pleased with the soil mix and am running the Hashberry Mainline in it as well. I will be mixing a big batch this summer and will begin using it exclusively in the fall.

Smell is great, very close to the other White Widow strain I run, but not nearly as frosty.

Nice fade! She looks great. Did I miss where you switched to soil? The OP says soilless. Sorry, kinda baked here.
