My White Widow Adventure

[4twenty4all]

I germinated 10 Nirvana White Widow seeds and all popped out of soil on 5/19. One of them was deformed as the first leaves were joined together and no new growth could get out so I pulled it, now there are 9

Soil: Equal parts all Fox Farm: Ocean Forest, Original Planting Mix, Light Warrior Agro-Ponic

Light: 400W MH

Humidity: In dome 70% and in the room is about 55-60%

Temp: 80 - 85 F during day and 70 - 75 F at night

Water and feed schedule: I started foliar feeding with diluted 1/4 solution with liquid seaweed and fish emultion every 3 days. I am watering using wet/dry cycle and just started giving 1/4 fish and seaweed every-other watering.

I plan to add 5 Arjan's Haze #3 seeds from Green House Seeds on 12/12 when the white widows go to flower so they don't get too big and will pollinate the haze with white widow pollen. That should be fun!

Anyway, here are the pics of the babies now:



Here is a close-up of one of them:


Wish me luck on another fun grow!

White Widow is a wonderful strain, and one of my favourites. it is also a forgiving strain to grow for beginners. Powerful and euphoric high.

Thanks guys! Hey *****...... Have you had Nirvana white widow? Is there much of a difference between breeders with this strain? Just wondering if one white widow with one breeder is better than another for some reason.

Anyway, here is the update.... We are at day 25 from when they first popped through the soil and as you will see from the pictures their sizes vary greatly. They all look very healthy to me so I'm not worried about the size as the smaller ones will probably catch up during veg.

I am now feeding with Maxi Crop Veg growth 1/2 strength every-other watering with a few drops of seaweed and fish emulsion. Also, I am foliar feeding with seaweed and fish emulsion 1/4 or slightly less strength every 3 days. No more delay.... here are the pics. They all look a little droopy because I just sprayed them:





Here is the runt, about 1 1/2 inches tall:

Very nice :-) Great start!

After a lot of research I found that the Maxi Crop nutes are just ok so I decided to switch to Advanced Nutrients Sensi 2 part grow and 2 part bloom for flowering. I have given the plants their first feeding with Sensi grow a & b. I also decided to add the 5 female Arjan's haze #3 seeds to the grow and will veg them for approx 30 days or so. Here are some pictures, the haze popped out of soil 3 days ago.







These are the haze babies, I'll get better pictures when they get bigger.

MaxiCrop, or any "sea tea" is a supplement, not a replacement for a nutrient regimen. It can stimulate root growth, decrease internode length, adds wonderful trace elements, and mitigates stress. I think it also helps your plant to use the other available nutrients more effectively. I wouldn't give it up - it is definitely beneficial to the plants...along with the appropriate N-P-K nutes.

Hey Freak..... So you think that I should use a small amount of Maxi Crop in addition to the Sensi A & B grow formula? I am still adding sea-tea with the nute watering and spraying with sea-tea every 3 days.

I'm not familiar with what Sensi A&B are comprised of, but if they are veg and flower nutes than the seaweed extract shouldn't be in conflict and should benefit the growth and quality greatly. As long as the ladies enjoy the potion, it's all good.

your babies are growing up nicely. make sure you dont overwater.

[4twenty4all]

Thanks Freak! I'll keep using the sea-tea and probably use the maxi-crop on my vegetable garden.

Hey BigGreen, thanks! They look droopy because I just watered them and sprayed them with neem oil. Here are a few pics showing they look better dry and I also have a close up of one of the baby arjan's haze.







Peace:
