Sleestack Skunk freebie from Herbies

So I germinated a Sleestack Skunk freebie from Herbies and I am almost sure it's a female. It's been on 12/12 under my 400w Lamp for nearly a month and still hasn't shown pistils. The growth pattern tells me it's a girl, so I transplanted her into a larger container and placed it on the outskirts of my garden. The fact that it still hasn't shown sex suggests it's a female, as a male plant would have shown by now. Anyway, here she is:

Done a sleestack freebie few years back and was almost peppermint like, very unusual.

You will have a very long wait if it's been a month no pistils 12/12. Look for 10+week flower time. I would also suggest cutting it back to 11/13 if it has that much sativa in it

sereesatakka!!

ill be peepin in

I did a SS outdoors. It had a piney smell, big buds, average smoke. Not bad but I doubt if ill grow it again.

You have a point, I've been on a 11/13 schedule for nearly a month now I know I said 12/12 in the OP, but it's actually been 11/13 (my usual flowering regiment)

If she takes too long flowering, I will just change to 8/16 for the last month and speed up her ripening process in a jiffy

Hey, how was the buzz on that SS>? Any medicinal value to speak of?

was a good smoke buzz wise but I prefer smoke like sour kush, skywalker kush, critical and so on.

I grew Sleekstack X Skunk before......I think it took 12 weeks of 12/12 and gave me fluffy buds. It'll stretch pretty good on you too so keep that in mind.

The weed was OK, but not worth the wait. Sorry for the bummer review. There are many other better strains out there. I'm loving G13's Pineapple Express these days....8-9 week flower time, good yielder, and above average smoke.

If you're looking for a fast Sativa-dom, Female Seeds C99 finishes in 9 weeks of 12/12, decent yielding, and trippy high.

Thanks for the review roach, yeah- it look like I may be looking @ a Long-ass flowering time which doesn't exactly thrill me, but these were freebies so I can't complain. She is vigorous even on the outskirts of the garden, getting moderate light. My "main" girls are taking up all the "prime real-estate" under the 400-watter. It's an additional female in my garden, that's how I look at it - The Pineapple x-press sounds very nice / I've been looking at this one for a while. Does it really have a pineapple taste / smell?

Got some of them there sleestack freebies too- wasnt at all excited about them...thanks for conforming my suspicions as I've got way too many truly great strains to focus my time on. I liked the g13 pineapple ex as well-a decent all purpose Indica

Oh well, maybe it's not going to be the kindest strain ever, but I consider it one more female in the garden

I got 5 of these sleestack skunk seeds for free with my last herbies order, not running them yet, will check how it goes for ya gl.

I have a sleestack skunk going and she is huuuuge.biggest plant in the room with huge colas that are somewhat leafy and outdoorsy looking...BUT she smells good and with time I believe she'll fillout and the buds will look better.outdoors she would definitely do well.

Is the Slee skunky tho ?

I would say she is perty skunky DL.the trick is to let her run her course and let the colas fill in.so far I see long sativa dense buds forming and im still out 3 weeks easily.ill post a pic in an hour.

I grew 5 of those freebies and 3 were female
After 45 days and just a few little hairs they got purged from the flowering room..........It is valuable real estate and a 8' tall plant that is 4' around and takes 14 weeks to flower doesn't fit the budget

I would love to grow one outside in coco

I too got a few freebie Sleestack beans. They grew amazingly in DWC but they both ended up growing balls so I tossed em.
