White Widow

monkeboy First week was a little nervous but my little widow-baby feel fine and growing up day by day.

monkeboy There are some leaves twisting started in 11 day of vegetation. I don't know why it's happen, but this is doesn't look so bad, I guess

monkeboy Time for training my girl! I used FIM technique and defoliation of couple useless leaves. On the next day after training the plant it's looks like nothing bad happened :D

monkeboy This week was a little nervous and full of preparation to flowering. As always I f*cked up and apply the FIM too late (have extra nodes). Anyway it's works well for me, plant must be dwarfy and has enough colas during flowering

monkeboy First week of 12/12 schedule and starting of flowering. I'm using some LST training and defoliation. Very satisfied about my widow-girl, because she feeling good all the way (actually I never used quality nutrients before lol).

monkeboy Got some calcium troubles (I guess) but I fix it soon. My last experiences with autos make me losing my patience so fast with photoperiod strain like white widow. It would be a long ride :D

monkeboy Like I said before a small problem with nutrients was solved and flowering continues. The stigmas quantity has increased and I finally saw a trichomes. I also apply some LST and defoliation for save my free space in grow tent

monkeboy 4 weeks of flowering has ended. The plant is still growing up but already slowing down and increases the stigmas/trichomes number. I hope the main cola will not approach the lamp :D

monkeboy Increasing bud mass and trichomes. Added some flowering booster. I was awaited a strongly smelling plant but it's actually no smell at all (maybe covid done this to me lol?)

monkeboy Another week, another report~ Dudes, this smell is breathtaking! Sticky and flavored buds kicks me into my childhood, when my mom washed my head with a baby shampoo called "quack-quack" or something. Unfortunately I'm not some kind of sommelier and I can't describe a bouquet, but I dare you, it's awesome! I also applied a "Simplex Power" stimulator with chitin and vitamins for better smelling

monkeboy Another week is over, and my girl is getting closer to the harvest! She is looking well, and her buds are gone bigger day by day. In the next few weeks I'm going to apply flowering stimulator for the last time and look at the moment to the flushing

monkeboy So what do we have now. It's 8 weeks or 56 days since switching the lighting mode to 12/12 (the Dutch Passion's White Widow photo/fem recommended flowering time). Next week I stop adding fertilizer and prepare the plant for harvest. Visually, the buds have stopped growing, amber trichomes appear and transparent ones become cloudy. Based on the experience of previous years, I can assume that under my lamp I will not get a larger or higher quality buds, which means it's time to finish my little girl :D

monkeboy The last week of flowering. Cleaning up a coco and simulate autumn. I'm zeroed nutrients and feed a plant with a "Simplex Taste" to clean leaves. Next step is a harvest

monkeboy It was a long and smooth road to the harvest. In the beginning I was a little happy to see a strong root on germination stage. Widow learned me to be patient and do not harm by overdosing plant. She really likes a trainings, FIM cant stressed her, defoliation make she stronger and short dropping the temperature cant harm she. I would like to mention separately a smell, most part of the time she doesn't smell anything, absolutely nothing. But in the end, then buds are formed and starts growing, she make the sweet and pepper smelling. I'm really appreciating for a long brand history and precious genetics of Dutch Passion that makes me a part of giant worldwide community of growers. ❤️
