Russian rocket fuel Bush pheno?

I've heard short stuff has not been great lately, but since I had good results with Russian rocket fuel in the past I decided to try it again.
Out of 5 seeds 2 died, 2 grew very small dense plants, and the other.... Well here she is... I'm thinking it could be the Bush pheno, but it is taking Forever to finish. Week 16 starts Tuesday. All the others were ready by the middle of the 12th week. This plant is huge, but the buds are not filling out and the hairs are mostly all white! Amber trichs on the sugar leaves, I guess it could just be bad genetics
Not sure what's going on here but if anyone has thoughts I'd love to hear them.
This is by far the longest living auto I've ever encountered.

youve already taken her this far you may as well hunker down and let her fill out for another 2 or 3 weeks, very inconsistent genetics imo but not necessarily bad.

just let her go and the worst thatll happen is she dies haha i seriously doubt with that loose a bud structure youd have to stress over rot.

yes I'm definitely going to let her go until she finishes or dies! I have good humidity control so luckily never (knock on wood) have to worry about mold!
I started putting her in the dark for 12 hrs to see if that changes anything.
I'm just running out of space, she takes up a great deal of room, and I have other strains coming up behind!

less light just makes it take longer, im speaking from much experience in this area.
yeah that sucks, cant take her outdoors?

I figured the auto gene might be screwy..
Still too cold up here in Vermont for outside

screwy? mmm in the sense that itll pop up in inbred lines that have rudi genes but are supposedly photosensitive but its not magic the plant is just flowering off of its maturity and life cycle as opposed to the light cycle. the more light you cram down her throat the faster shell swell up and give you some nice buds fr your jars.

In that case I'm Just gonna leave it on 20/4 with the rest..

I'll keep ya posted! Hopefully she'll finish soon!

If you got that seed sometime last year from a Seedbank I can tell you your growing a super auto not the rock russian fuel, all of the breeder stitches work was all mixed up people growing dr feelgood that are indica Dom that looked very similar to your gal and took forever and a day was nothing indica about it.... Be curious if you got those beans from herbies or the tude, supposedly Seedsman stock was untarnished though even from stitch direct people were getting wrong beans....

Interesting... Got these from attitude.. Maybe it's a completely different strain altogether!

Looks like it has quite wispy sativa buds to it, nice

Yup as I thought! Definitely not growing a rocket russian fuel there sorry to hear of another screwed stitch grower, and this guy just keeps up with his bs, I don't know what the freak happened ? His gear (stitches) use to be so good! Now I'd be hestian to go anywhere near it, thankfully I still have some of his older gear which always ran well and as described... Saw people with kve grows go 120+ days... I've grown several kvs and never one room more than 80days max for some sweet auto og goodness.... I wish people would just stop supporting these strains until things get fixed.... Its not that what your growing is bad canna just not what you were in store for... You'll still end up hopefully with some dankness! Just hold out awhile longer and if anything cut your lights back a few hours save some money and she'll finish quicker for you I think... Good luck with the grow and curious to see how it turns out, keep us updated!

I'll take more pics in a few days to share.. Shame I didn't research before ordering these seeds again.... But hey, you live and you learn! Dinafem is my new best friend.. They have been pretty consistent, with one exception... Critical +2.0.. Don't buy em!

yeah dinafems always done good by me the only issue is they only work with elites (which we have all day in california) and its all feminized but other than that pretty good stuff outta those guys.
what was the issue with the 2.0's?

short stuff has what they call " monster pheno's " if i had to guess they are like 1 in a hundred maybe more ..... i ran across one it was a HBD it started really flowering around week 11 roughly
............ those are actually the pheno's you are looking for just tossing that out there .......

So far out of 6 seeds I only have one healthy looking plant. 1 just never sprouted, and the other 4 are not doing well. Lots of brown leaves and very small.. I blame the seeds because all the other plants in my room are beautiful. same soil, same water, same nutrients, just shitty plants lol

Every pheno is different with different need's

im sure you do, the one thats thriving is most likely just better suited to your grow medium, water conditions, temps, lighting etc., the fact that the majority are crappy and falling apart tells me that your doing something wrong, pics?

seedlings dont ususally start looking like crap till they get a little older unless somethings wrong.
