Lol sorry for the mix up! I saw your pics that you posted. They look fine to me, as their a sativa they will take longer to finish. So don't worry about it. Yours will look way different at 4 weeks than a quicker finishing indica.

With sensi sk#1 theres a fair amount of phenos some as quick as 45 days i think, most going around 56. Ive grown out hundreds of sensi version, so whos ya got? the only two skunk#1 beans i would grow would be sensi or mr nice as im a fucker for growing out old school strains as close to the original as i can get.

You might find that different pheno's finish at different times. Indica leaning Plants may finish in 9 weeks where sativa leaning may go 14 weeks. Your best not to even listen to the breeders finishing time, just use it as a guide. Let the trichs tell u when she's done.

Lol no way man, 14wks for sk#1 are we talkin about the same strain. Never have i had one go that long, they are quick finishers. Skunk #1 is somethig like 50/50, dunno what versions you've grown out closet but ive never heard of that strain going that long and ive grown it for years.

I've never grown it jimmy. It's just with her saying that she read it can go 14 weeks, I put it down to pheno types mate.

Cant go wrong with sensi, atleast you have a good start. You will get different phenos some a quiet tall but still finish quick, 56 days 12/12 and they can come down in most cases.

Never with sensi mate other rips out there who knows, its a great strain in my book possibly one of the best out there still imo. An oldie but a goodie lol. If you've never grown it its worth a punt i think as its great value for money. She is an 8 weeker for sure mate.

The sweet tooth3 x c99. It was the pineapple pheno female that was used for the cross. So I'm hoping for good things. Have u puffed c99 before? I've not, but herd it's really good. I've also got some swt3 x durga mata to play with. I see a future breeding project maybe.

No mate, so im looking forward to doing so. The pineapple pheno sounds fuckin great so you should have something pretty decent, fingers crossed. Mine are just sprouting so a way to go yet, ive also decided to do some pollen chuckin this time round. Any nice fellas i think are worth it i'll move to a seperate tent, better than chcukin them and i might get lucky and find a goodun i should end up with a few out of these strains im growing so who knows.
