Yeah we have loads of political bs fucking shit up too. General election in the next 4 weeks. Hopefully lib dems get in. They want to legalise the green. Save the NHS and do more to assist young families. All of these appeal to me. Yet it will be a conservative landslide by way of rigging. I use growth technology PH up and down. My sister just lost one side of her business due to a legislation change over here meaning it's illegal to sell thiacloprid anymore. Ironically as she shifted all her stock I got vine weevils. The one thing that actually gets rid of them is thiacloprid. The other is beneficial nematodes to eat the larvae. Hope shit balances nicely your side of the pond soon enough and mine so we can grow and live in peace ✌
I sure hope so thats messed up you got weevils gotta look up what they are. check out some stuff called sms 209 https://sierranaturalscience.com/natural-pesticides/sns-209/

It is messed up. I managed to get half a bottle of trounce after I already chopped them so I blasted my grow area with it. Bleached it. And blasted again before this run so hopefully I'll be okay. Will go and have a look at your winter rose now mate

Great Genetics! Very very pleased with everything about her. HUGE yield, potent widow buzz. I am on my second run of her, and have made my own fem ceeds using this strain! Last run w her, very lemony (ww) smelling. This time, i shit you not, she wreaks like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich!

I like to grow multiple strains at once, I had 5 plants going under a 400 watt HPS in a soil mix using only one gallon pots. I grew her as a single stalked plant and popped off a bit over 3 oz off of her alone!
Old post I know but did u lst train and top this or ket her just grow I have 5 I want to start on

Yes an old thread , but if I may , my 2 cents worth ……..it seems to me that no matter what strain we discuss , there are lovers & haters , & all the inbetween , this 1 no exception , but a few things do stand out about WWxBB, the smoke isnt the greatest, but the plant is user friendly & the yields are pretty good if you have a little experience (just reading all the comments) & 1 other important factor , which pheno are U going to get 1 that heads toward WW , or BB
I also find it interesting that after a lot of research , BB does stand out when it comes to filling the jars , but the product isn't the greatest...……….in all fairness , the only way to find out if it suits your needs is to have a go !!
1 other point i'd like to make is that BB has been used exstencively with a lot of other strains to increase yield ,
comments please, taking into consideration that when this thread was started , a lot of growing practises have changed , lights nutes , environmental control...….also if you look at some eed banks WWxBB is right up there nowadays, or so they suggest ………..thx for reading &any further discussion appreiated

Well this is an old ass thread but I’ll try to start it back up. Currently I have 2 WWxBB going. One of them would grow 3 stems per node. I’m only at 7 weeks of veg now. Here’s a picture of the freak. Hoping it’ll be one of the better phenos. It’s super busy and should have LOTS of bud sites. Really like how thick branches are and lower branches are growing up nicely for flat canopy.

To each their own.

I have fond memories of growing this strain. My first successful grow and high yielding.

Gave me confidence and rewarding.

Enjoy your grow

I take it your not a big bud fan?
I have no issues with the set of genetics as I have never grown it out from any company that offers it. I came into the thread open minded and still am but I would grow no ones product in this thread. You would go homeless even in prohibition states with this quality of pot. I am a fan of pot that looks at least as good as mids. Every plant here is awful. I would be looking for another breeder if I grew out anything in the thread and got these results. In 2020 if you don't have flavor, smell, and looks why even grow it? I can deal with no looks I am not trying to sell out of a storefront, but it had better have outstanding taste and smell from start to finish of joint or bowl. There are a shit load of companies that offer nothing but top shelf these days /shrug.

You even hear people complain of the high several times in the thread...Sounds exactly like industrial grade hemp grown for extracts and not fibers.

I think a lot of it is poor growing abilities along with bad phenos because there are people who said the really liked it. You know as well as I do, you’ve got to have some skills to grow top quality weed. Obviously strains play a major part, but I feel, you get the right pheno and have some skills, you’ll have a product you’ll be more then happy with. Along with great yields! I don’t buy anything that has big bud in it is garbage! Granddaddy Purple is my absolute favorite, mostly cause of terp, and it’s a big bud hybrid!

Who offers good genes of this? I'll do some researching. So far I would buy Female Seeds version. They have been very reliable for me for over a decade now. I want something with heavy smell, yield, and taste. I can fix looks. This is a classic hybrid of two classics so it had me looking. I know bigbud paid the bills for years for many.

I grew snow white by nirvana years ago, a widow cross, and it was surprisingly really good. A unique flavor, earthy yet floral but lip smacking good. Stone was good.

I've never tried the ww x big bud seeds I've had, all freebies, because I have yet to see an impressive pic of finished buds. And all the flower pics look awful.

I just found this thread but no lie I’ve been running this ever since buying from Herbies in 2012.
I must have hit the lotto with it. It is the stankiest, frostiest, very dense buds and hard indica leaner (don’t wake and bake if you have plans) done in 60 days. It has a rotten funk to it, no citrus or any of that. This one was the smallest yielder of the pack, looked totally different than the others but very hardy and will take any nutes you throw at her. It is the go to for migraines and a good night cap.
The others were all big bud dominate and the smoke was very bland.

You found one of the good phenotypes. Unless you get lucky, you usually have to pheno hunt (10-20 seeds). Some commercial operations will pheno hunt 100’s of seeds (same strain) to find the best one. WAY to many phenotypes, of same strain, to make an intelligent comment about if it’s a good strain or not, unless you’ve ran a pheno hunt. Just need to find the unicorns of the strain. I actually enjoy pheno hunts. The runts suck though!

Yea I’m going to bump this oldie. I feel it a duty to Female Seed Co. and this thread as I mentioned the gem I’ve been running 2 posts up. I forgot I had her going this round and checked the tag on a frosty girl before lights out. Ah I should have recognized her. Somewhere in the 4 week range. The stinky funk on her will crinkle the nose to anyone who catches a whiff. Touch her and everyone you see that day will know your hobbies. I really would like to get her tested because she crushes migraines and the ladies cramps quick and effectively like nothing else I’ve ran all these years. FE5C97FF-1D46-4C4B-A637-A62E7529D5F8.jpeg
