So bog did a grow show and outlined 4 main phenotypes in sour strawberry.
Hot pants, Fruity pebbles, Strawberry creme and strawberry kush.
They all have their qualities but the strawberry kush was rapidly found to be what to look for.
So growers started to find ways to identify it as soon as possible, the long middle finger and somewhat slimmer leaves is one indicator.
Another would be vigor, SS having sour bubble as a parent is not known to be a fast grower, but the strawberry kush type can grow 2x as fast as others.
Then, good stretch, basically it will tower over the others and finally the in your face strawberry hashy goodness when in full flower mode, canât miss it.
Edit: the strawberry kush is slow to show sex, and last to finish!
Hereâs one example
The f3 look a lot like the f2s I grew, they still have enough variation in them to find every phenos even though I excluded the hot pants type (dwarf sour bubble like plant).
im trying to stay on track dont lure me to go off trail my next seed i pop are dedicated to test dongnosis: pre98 bubba kush x (??)kush
after that im going wild
I know what you meanâŚIâve been trying to stay away from seed giveaways lately, cause I already have too many decisions to make. But then one comes up and Iâm like "Oooh, that sounds interesting".
Just droppinâ in to report on an oddball SS that popped up outta nowhereâŚ
Found one of the BOG Sour Strawberries went âString of Pearlsâ/Foxtail without me even noticing it! My foreman must have cut & hung it without me noticing. It was barely dry when I saw it but I cut this little pile up and rolled a nice fattie and did a garden tour w/ a visiting buddyâŚhe gave up after half a joint! I, OGâer that I am, soldiered on and really enjoyed it. Thought I was managing to still get things done pretty well, but looking back with a couple hourâs perspective shows me it was just an illusion! But a really nice buzz Iâll be trying again! And again!
I have been trying to figure out if itâs my mix, my climate, or my timing, but I seem to get quite a few âweirdoâ phenos of strains bred by OGâers in very different conditions. Quite often it tends towards the foxtail/String of Pearls look. One of Buddertonâs Carlâs Shoes did it and a couple of the Cobra Lips. Despite being such miserable producers when it comes to weight, the resin content on the SoP plants is just crazy! Iâm growing mostly for my own enjoyment (and sanity!) and making RSO for my own use so Iâll probably always keep a line of these (SoP) in the works! Wish Iâd seen this one and pollinated it with the purple Black Creme Auto male.
I often associate foxtailing with high temperature and possible low humidity. Nutrients can be a factor in bud density but donât think it can make buds push foxtails on their ownâŚ
I donât recall seeing foxtails in any run i did but my grow environment is similar in and out
Also big yes to breeding with it, Iâve had good results with multiple crosses, although the initial skunk cross was plagued by intersex.
Overall the ss has a pleasant high, a fair proportion of them are average potency so it does need a little hunting to find the strawberry taste with sour bubble potency. #12 is still the one to beat
Well, then the ghost of Musashi was with me this cool autumn morning as I cut down my guerrilla crop with my work knife. This is ZANG(Vietnam Black x A5/Thai Haze))
