It was way one indica side, which really surprised me. It reminds me alot of Misty, but is more potent. The high/stone had a alot of great effects. It gradually builds up, like walking up a mountain, it gets harder and harder, and then when you finally reach the summit, you're like wow, this is a ve ...continued

I love this plant. Grew quick (in veg) and easily although I felt the flowering time was far too long (10 weeks); I wanted to cut 'em down!
Beautiful looking plants in veg and through to flower. For a big grow smell may be an issue but it was fine for me. Careful when moving and checking plants, st

This little thing was a by-product so to say of my main grow, grew it from seed and veg'd for roughly 3 weeks under a 7W (yes, seven watts) compact fluoro desk light. After that it was put in with my main batch under a 250W HPS. During veg and flowering the plant was practically odorless, very handy ...continued

Started 3 seeds, all popped, seedlings were growing very good, you can see some sativa on their veins, seedlings grew kind of tall, not too bad, they were fast growing plants for sure and at 2 weeks the roots were coming out of the bottom of the dixie cups.

I started with 4 seeds all germinated and two were female. One was a little bit taller and yielded a bit more but the bushier one had more white all over.

They were 5 week in veg, growing slowly IMO. They were 11in and 13in before I move to 12/12. I recommend to veg them much more, they don't str

I loved this plant. They grew exceptionally the entire time. I planted 3 seeds and 2 were males. Believe it or not the plant that turned out to be female was twice the size of the males nearly. This girl had a pleasant smell a bit different then most, not really skunky, but you could smell it as ...continued

This garden had only one WW, so my report may not be complete, as I had no different phenos for comparsion.

The plant was tied down in early flowering to assume a more horizontal shape and receive more light. It vegged for about 45 days and started flowering. It flowered for about 55 - 60 days,

This one was started by itself after 2 others and grew very well. It was budded at about a foot and 1/2 tall. It finished at 3 and 1/2 ft. tall. It was stressed and turned hermie early in flowering. Even though it was pollinated early on it was still more potent that the others it was grown with (durban poisons).

I budded for about 2 months and it was harvested premature due to needed space for other plants (skunk#1s) The one White Widow I had grew bushy and stout. See in the one pic I have the White Widow circled. I had the WW raised a foot to stay level with the other plants. To dry I just hung them upside down with clothes hangers. The harvested herb was very potent compared with the other bud. It was visibly crystally and smelled like berries. The smoke was somewhat harsh but tasted floral/citral.

It gets me a very hungry high but couch locked so you don't want to get up to make the food you're craving. It was fairly easy to grow as I had no problems with pests or mold. I reccomend this strain for anyone who has sleep problems. It makes a bed so comfortable! This plant isn't normally hermie I just stressed it a lot. (sometimes the temp got above 100! also I messed up the light cycle many times)
 
 
  Garden Information for this report  
Bloom Wattage Used410w to 1000w
Average Plant Height40
Plants per Sq. Foot1.00
Average Yield per Plant2.50
Pruning or Plant StyleBush
Fertilization MethodOrganically fed

Grown under flouors during veg (250 watts) for about a month and a half. Then flowered under a 400 watt MH agrosun with 118 watts of flouros. The bulb I use is a special MH that has more red spectrum than most so it is good for veg and budding.
It was grown in peter's plus potting soil and organically fed with worm castings, guano, liquid concentrates, blood meal, bone meal, seaweed and love. I watered every day or every other day and fertilized every 3 days or so (twice a week)
I flushed for a week and let it stay in complete darkness for 2 days before harvest. Also I stop watering a few days before harvest so most the moisture in the buds transpires for quicker drying.

It was budded for about 2 months but still needed more time. I use fans and regular opening of the space (closet) for ventilation. I have mylar on the walls. I use an air purifier to clean the air and a mini dehumidifier during drying to keep the humidity down. I blow on my plants to give some CO2 as I believe every little bit of love counts.
