Nirvana White Widow looking good ........

[foomar]

Just to show that fine plants can be found amongst the cheapest of source material.

Fast grower and cloner , around 24 days in and a very good trichome count , compares favourably with assorted C99X and Boggy stuff.

Two quite different phenos.




Short fat one has a glorious fruity smell and solid buds , leaf edge curling and trichs everywhere.

Taller more sat pheno smells like NL but sweeter.

Very impressed with these so far , these date back to 2003 i am told and have been worth keeping it seems.

Very nice looking babies. I have a pack of those beans sitting around just waiting. I have read nothing but great reviews on this strain from Nirvana, you sure have to be happy with the value there.

Keep the pics coming , I will be watching this one for sure.

 

[hazeified]

totally agree, done this a couple of times with good results.

some really nice pics in your album dude.

Thanks for the interest

Had a fine grow years back with White Rhino and not seen heavier yielding plants before or since.

Apparently the sat one finishes in midlands UK end of september and has been relable over the years , shows some resistance to mould and does two pounds or more.
Planted out at easter it yellows and collapses with the nettles around it used for cover , anything staying upright or green is ripped round here and a magor factor in choosing for outdoor locally.

The more indica one is a mould magnet outdoors but has a sweet fruty almost bubblegum taste , fast finish and high potency which has kept it around for a relatively long time locally indoors.

If this one finishes well with no hermies i have a Geisha male ready to kick some yield and additional flavours into it as it has some nice traits and a history of stability over several years.

If you missed out on a recent shark - like feeding frenzy and have $95 burning a hole in your pocket , forty of these could be as rewarding to grow out if you have the space to find something equally cute and sticky.

I grew Nirvana white widow a couple of years back and my grow had 2 phenos also.I thought that the short pheno was best.....a real ass-kicker....o.b.

I too think the shorter pheno is better. What a high! ...in less time.

This is turning into something special at 29 days flower after a short veg.
The sun came out briefly and looks better in real light.

Few fans in a tiny pot , could put a large number per light for a good yield in an alledged 50 days , not sure it is that fast but will see.

The taller sat pheno would not be a keeper for indoors , have just smoked a fresh sample of this years outdoor recently finished and it is a fine smoke even with no cure.

Am told the plants which survived that wet spell earlier ended very well with some high yields for once.

 

[foomar]

Day 39 and well advanced in maturity , will probably hit 20% amber and finish by 50 days in soil , could be pushed lower in hydro by up to a week i would think.

Fans now yellowing fast , no signs of hermies but am told it may throw the odd single banana on top that never opens if too close to the lights.

Heavy trichome coverage on low level nutes.

Lost the pics somewhere.

Sweet looking widows man!

 

[Surfr]

Good looking shit man!

This is the only plant to show these glorious shades in a cold room , everything else went black or was unnafected by temps down to zero .

Bud structure looking like bogglegum and had a touch of mould but not too bad.

Seems stable , little in common with other plants from this cross i have seen or grown out myself and looks made for low height setups , would fit in a shoebox and will dry near an ounce.

Could be a minor pheno or a freak or a seed mixup when packed but it definately came from a Nirvana WW packet.


Same plant before and after a few weeks in a fridge.

Bud shape changed in response to the cold , kept C99 style to the end in a warm room.

Will have some White Widow x Geisha freebies at the bay by easter if anyone fancies a gamble , this male is reliable and should add improved structure and a better set of flavours but still below 60 days.

Looking great foomar!

I've grown out some WW before in the past and was quite pleased with it. I think I can almost smell them from here.

Good luck on the crosses.

Interesting thread. I'm sitting on some of Nirvana's WW now, just waiting for my 1k to arrive...
