I have one more batch of the Dutch Passion WW clones that I will flower in about 6 weeks. After that, I will be going back to my original strain. I guess it is more high maintenance than what I wanted. The length of the flowering time is not a good trade off for the almost unnoticeable difference in flavor and such. Add to that the need to push cal-mag and micro manage every aspect of the plants needs for an extra 4 weeks. I have enjoyed the ride and at least I can say that I have grown some of the best bud I have ever enjoyed, but I need to relax a little and go back to what I know. It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. I have no regrets but sometimes the grass isn't really greener on the other side. Perhaps biting off a new strain and switching to hempy buckets at the same was a bad idea. After all, there was quite a learning curve. I will keep the hempy method and go back to my original strain. I always knew it was a great strain (Michiganja) but it was all I had ever grown for 3 years and I just had to take a try at something new. I can remember how excited I was when I placed my order for 10 fem seeds of the WW. It was like being a child again and waiting for Christmas. I will properly store the rest of the WW seeds and maybe sometime down the road I will be ready to give it another go. My next batch of the WW clones will be grown without topping, fimming or any sort of LST. Just the way mother nature intended. I hope that I can go out with a bang. I will get up some pictures of my last batch of clones in the next couple of days. They are 8 in total.

Ok. I vegged her for only 3 weeks, due to space, and I am only using CFL's. I Currently have 333 (actual) watts of CFL on her. She is a feminized seed. Thinking of harvesting her around week 9? Depends on how she looks by then, we will see. Well, here's some pics!











** One cool thing about this plant is I have a "Poly-Ploid" bud. I just learned what that was when I did this grow.. but basically.. I have a branch that has double everything. Doublw the branches.. double the buds.. the bud at the top in doubled in size.. the stem is twice as wide as a normal stem. Theres buds all over this stem. **Here is a picture of it.. I think its really really cool looking**




You can notice how big the stem is.. and see alot of the extra growth..

My journal is my signature.. you can check it out if you want.. I always post A LOT of pics.. adn do them every Tuesday and Friday.. and have plenty more pics of the "Poly-Ploid" bud.. or as I like to call it.. the "Siamese Twin Buds" since its pretty much 2 buds growing in 1 single bud-site.

Ok. Well, let me know what you guys think of her! :bigjoint:

aww really? thats tooo bad. Oooo well. IO know for sure it will be worth it tho! Its CRAZY to think she's only 1/2 way into flowering then! wow. She's gonna be a fatty then. =) And thanks for the compliment. Yeaa I can complain. Not too bad for only 3 weeks Veg and ONLY CFL's. The buds smeel good, and are nice and tight too! Took a sample bud a few days ago, should be dry by tonight, gonna give it a try.. i know its not gonna be ANYWHERE near as good as when its finihsed.

How did you like the smoke tho?? Any good?

Thanks man! Yeaa this is the 1st time I ever had anything like this. The top of the bud is fucking LOADED with white hairs!! Its crazy looking! And right underneath that main bud.. is just a shitload of bud and leaves.. I think that this branch will be ablout the same size as the main cola.. or at least close to it.

And thanks again. The buds are alot tighter than I expected since Im only using CFL's.. But I got a shitload of them. Theres 10 bulbs all together. Got like one bulb for each of the main buds.. adn then a few underneath too. Cant wait to see the finished weight!

The smoke is fairly good. No one hitter quitter type of smoke, but still gets me rightly fucked up after a couple of bowls. Everyone around here loves it and want it badly, so it moves quickly.

My only complaint about it was moderate yields. I averaged a hair over an ounce/plant under 400w HPS. Even the plants I vegged to about 6 inches taller yielded the same exact as the smaller ones, but It was my first two grows, so that definitely plays into the yield some.

I had one beautiful lady that was nearly twice as bulky as the others, but in the end she didn't yield a whole lot more than her sisters. Both times, they seem to just not put on any weight in the last 2 or 3 weeks while Im waiting on the trichs to turn.

I wouldn't grow it again myself. Theres better out there, but its a good starting point for new growers since they're inexpensive.

The next widow I grow sometime will be Mr.Nice Black Widow. Im grabbing a pack as soon as they become available, even though It'll be quite some time before I even get to grow them.

I have been growing Dutch Passion WW. I had 2 mother plants that I grew from Fem seeds. They are very different. One has more Sativa traits and the other more Indica traits. I have 8 clones that I will flower in about 6 weeks. Here is a photo of the 2 different clone examples. On the left is the Sativa traits and on the right the Indica traits. I have 6 of the Sativa trait and 2 of the Indica trait clones.



Here is a shot of all 8 clones.



And a shot of the Michiganja Mother that I will be switching to after the WW are done.

My White Widow Max from fem seeds. Marijuanaseeds.nl.

14 Weeks, 29 days into flowering. Shares a 4 x 4 tent with two other strains. 400 HPS. Just a regular one, nothing special.

Fox Farm Nutes every watering as per bottle instruction.

Any comments?

I finally feel like I can add something to this thread. Been waiting for my girls to grow up a little!

For my setup, I'm using Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil, FFOF Nutes following their normal schedule, and watering with 1 tablespoon of molasses per gallon every week that I don't add nutes. They are growing under a 6 bulb, 4 foot, High Output T5 light.


Here they are at 4 weeks and 1 day of flowering...

These are from Nirvana. I bought 5 feminized White Widow seeds. I germinated 3, and all three popped within 30 hours with the paper towel method.

Ive grown out 8 ladies of NWW myself. I think you'll be happy with the end product. I dont think any of my ladies were that frosty at 29 days. I have pictures of my grow in my albums to check out since you're also doing Nirvana.

It'll be interesting to see how you interpret their smell during flower. I felt most of mine had a pine cone/tar smell, with a couple being a really sweet fruity smell. Easily the best smelling weed around these parts, and people really love it.

This is my first grow, and pretty much everything about the grow has gone great. Since day 1 they've grown like perfect, happy-to-be-alive plants.

Here's day 25 back when they were vegging...

They've always been pretty fast growers, and very bushy. I believe the bushiness comes from the T5 lights.

I think your plants looked great at 29 days. Heck, I think half the magic of getting your girls to look good is in your picture taking skills!

As far as smell... 2 of them smell like grape kool-aid to me. If I touch a bud, I don't wash my hands cuz it smells so good. My girlfriend rubbed it on her neck once because she loves the smell, and she doesn't smoke or even like the smell of weed.
The third plant smells different... I'm not sure how to describe it, other than it smells similar to the other two, but harsher, and more pot-like. That plant is also a lighter shade of green than the other two.

EDIT: I went back and smelled them after posting this.... While the buds do smell sweet and grapey to me, the leaves have that piney smell you mentioned Dave
