4 weeks of flowering today......2 distinct pheno's, taller and shorter. The shorter are further along by 5-7 days it appears. I really thought the strain was pretty uniform, which obviously is not the case. The taller is taking a more sativa growth pattern, more like the blueberry mother and the shorter pheno is the white rhino. Smell is starting to come on.......5-5.5 weeks to go I'm guessing....

How did I miss this journal? Dude, they look great 
Big fan of blue rhino, I grew a fair bit of it back in early 2000's, not sure which breeder mine were from as they were from Emery but they look very similar to what yours do. You're in for some real dank smoke if they are the same, used to near knock me out
I've since made my own blue rhino though out of dj's blueberry and mr nice's medicine man, turned out even better than I expected!

Medicine Man.....yummy!!!!!!!!!! It was one of my top 3 grows about 4-5 years ago. Massive yield, I think I got over 4+ lbs. from just 2 lights. It took me 3 days to harvest it all, as with topping there were tons of buds. I stopped growing it when I switched to feminized seeds but this is truly a great strain- it's highly recommended.
There are a few people I've seen produce there own Blue Rhino (Rabbi was his name on THC Farmer I think) but Positronics has had this for years and years. Working on an updated pic with filter glasses for a clear pic.

Another morning pic, thru color correcting glasses to filter the HP light. This is going to be a massive yielder also. Look at the shorter plants, in the middle behind the taller plants, there is about 9 or 10 plants way shorter but more filled out already. Wife started complaining this morning about the smell- that's a GOOD sign. LOL

Nice man!! They will be pretty fat buds by the time you finish. They are definitely starting to fill out mate bring on the last few weeks I say!!
bring on the last few weeks I say!!Some of the taller "more sativa" looking buds won't "indica out", but about 75% look like they will be really nice, thick colas when finished.......
I'm back with an edit:
1. As I reported earlier, the strain is not very uniform. I have plants between 4-6 ft tall. If I was to do them again, I'd top most of them them once or twice. The indica leaning plants are the better "looking" plants right now- a classic indica plant, around 4 ft. tall with a crown of buds around the main cola. These buds are already quite dense and still growing. The sativa looking plants are taller, with a "spear" shaped center cola and some meaningless small buds scattered about.
2. BUT, and it's a big but, the Blueberry side of the strain has a lot of Thai (purple & chocolate) in it's background while the White Rhino is mainly indica (with just a hint of a Brazilian sativa). So, although the indica looking plants look better, the taller Blueberry pheno is probably more to my liking.
3. I've grown a bit of Blueberry strains previously....Dutch Passions was my first MANY years ago. Monster yields, with a "Flat-top" center cola, like frankensteins head. What I have now is way different. D.P.'s was more of a Blueberry Indica, as opposed to lets say E$KOBARS Cheeseberry is more of a Blueberry sativa.
4. It's a smelly strain, maybe 8/10 as of now. It's going to get worse too. Not for the faint of heart, for sure.
5. I like to go in my room in the dark period, armed with a 22 bulb green flashlight and look for bugs (it's easier to see plant damage underneath a leaf), resin, light leaks, etc. The resin looks great right now, it really coming on nicely. I'm not convinced the yield will be a 9/10 or higher- right now I'd say it's a 7/10 but I still have hope. The quality though, already looks like a 8/10 and that's high for this far out.
6. Summary......a nice, easy grow so far with no issues or concerns. All the plants are holding a nice green color throughout the entire plant. I water once every 3 days with fertilizer. No need to flush, there are no notable issues.

Hey man, sorry for the late reply!
Hmm blueberry crosses hey...my favourite to this day is still Big Blue by BC Seedbank. PeakseedsBC does a few blueberry crosses and they are all pretty fire, blue skunk is real good.
Only other one I could suggest is Blue Og by G13 Seeds, good hit off that.
I really only grow my own crosses of blueberry now, made blue shark, blue shiva, blue mango and nearly finished my other cross with medicine man and C99
Only blue cheese I can speak of was an auto and I think it was Barney's. It was ok, nothing special but still got me whacked!

No worries mate
Just a quick update...no pic's though, sorry- lights are out.
Things are progressing nicely.......I once thought I'd be going 65 days with these, but it's rather obvious these will be done in about 8 weeks. Loads of pheno's which really come out in the flowering period. In veg, it looked like 2, a tall and short. Now it's more like 5-6. Friday is 6 weeks finished, so the flush (and yellowing) will begin as I taper and stop fertilizing. Yield will be less than my normal crop too- off maybe 15% I'm guessing. Most of the buds are hardening nicely, but 2 plants have been just "running" buds like the Dr. Greenspan strain. Low weight on those. Smell continues to be quite bad, a good sign. I can't wait to smoke a bowl!!!!

Sounds like they're doing well man! 5-6 pheno's makes it hard to manage though hey. Ive got a few different pheno's in my box at the moment and managing them is getting difficult!
Here's a pic of my little setup. Most of my blue medicine x c99 are to the sides and at the back. So far ive got a wicked blueberry pheno, a medicine man pheno and a nice mix between medicine man and c99 the big cola at the front is a sin city nightmare og!
