First Mainline Attempt!

~ Was this difficult to grow? ~ A little bit, as I stated in my harvest review with Mazar I used the same nutes for all of the plants. This caused some issues since every strain had its own needs. The Mazar was very sensitive to any changes. The White Widow had Purple development due to low temps, and other issues like nute burn, stunting, etc. Super Silver Haze had the most buds, insane amount of frost (compared to others) and best effects. Finally Cbd Blueberry was the least affected by high nute levels (3 times) or any environmental changes. But to the point, White Widow had issues, those of which I mentioned briefly above. Though these difficulties where due to ignorance of the individual needs of each strain, including but not limited to phenotypes. I’ve learned a lot for this project, Mainline techniques, defoliation timing, nute levels in amended soil, curing and more. This has been an exciting though anxious period of time. 19 weeks of work went into this project so far, and I don’t regret a thing. ~ What would I do differently? ~ There’s a few things I’d do differently in hindsight. I never checked the runoff of my plants (ppm-ec, or ph). This led to me experiencing certain consequences from the overuse of nutrients. Another thing is sterilize, sterilize, and you guessed it, sterilize everything! I may have done an okay job, but that’s the point, just okay. Because of the mite and pest issues in the area it makes it essential to serialize the garage every single day. Sounds crazy but I’d experience little to no issues if I worked on the main prevention, sterilization. Finally, patience… I need to take the time to properly attend to my plants. Sometimes I forget to check in on them, and this didn’t help them. I need to set reminders to do maintenance checks, don’t want to keep this habit. ~ How was the effect(s)? ~ Strong is the first thing I’ll say about White Widow. I didn’t anticipate this when I tried the first usable cured product. Wow, you know what I haven’t felt high in years, I was heroically high, learned quick that I can’t use my standard dose with this girl, nope! The effect was intensely cerebral complimented with a fuzzy, tingly sensation in the prefrontal cortex and paleo cortex. Short term memory was affected, this includes being easily distracted by anything. When used in small doses It’s pleasant, clear, and mentally simulating. I started cleaning… Bad idea for someone trying to recover from surgery haha. ~ Final thoughts ~ This White Widow turned out better than I expected, though the taste, smell, and effect is different than the White Widow I was familiar with. This one is so different that is doesn’t seem like White Widow to me. But, times change and it’s hard to maintain a certain profile over 13 years. I’m quite pleased and can’t wait to order more seeds from Grower’s Choice Seeds. I’m glad that I got the chance to grow this strain, I have more seeds so I’ll grow another run of widow soon. Well done GCS, this was very good!
