12/12 From A - Z Widowlicious Strain By Gairbud

[gairbud]

there is nothing more exciting then being hired as consultant and/or then being asked to be on retainer as a personal grower for a collective. i have been retained to do grows for a small collective of smokers who have been clients for awhile of my over stock. they will be funding the entire startup and costs of the system and everything. this is another milestone in my growing life and i am very honored to do it. they only need about 2 to 3 oz per month and are sativa lovers. so i am going to do my very own strain for them as i got plenty of f4 crossback seed. they were f3 forward cross and f4 cross back. the strain is very stable with minimum phenos and a 70% ratio average of female seed and no hermies. the seed is now 14 months old but i store them very well so i expect 70% or greater viable germination.also they do better indoor then outdoor. and i have purchased wonder woman from nirvana for the next grow. they will love it. they have smoked my widowlicious before many times and the blue cronic[green crack] . and i know the types of strains and highs to make them very happy campers.

how the genetics were done. white widow male crossed to very stony caramalicios female who is the mother.
f1 seed was grown and the best male and female from 100 plants were crossed for f2 forward cross.
f2 seed done the same way for f3 seed.
f3 seed i took the best male and put him back into the original mother for the f4 seed. all the females tested from f3 were averaging the mother. i have f3 seed still stored. all the f3 were at 5.5 feet.
the efects are great . this is a for real creeper strain as you feel right away happy and in 15 minutes the full effects kick in. 1 hit for light smokers . 2 hits for moderate to heavy smokers. 3 hits and you forget after 15 minutes you have a joint in your hands cause your way to happy to care . the draw backs are 50% report mild munches and 50% report slight cotton mouth to none. also if you try to sleep in the first 2 hrs of smoking you wont be able to. but after that you sleep very sound. also if you smoke to much you will be high the next day for most of the morning. duration is 5 to 6 hrs total on average. up part is 80% of the high and almost no down part at all.
22% thc is the lowest rating from side bud. highest ratted thc was from tops at 27% average, 26 low and 28 high from 3 samples the third was at 27.

the original white widow females from where i got the male from were at 28% across the board. and the caramalicious was at 22% across except the mother who came in at 24% from side to top.
the white widow traits i was after were major tricome and stony widow high. that passed thru 100%. the caramalicios traits i was after was bigger and faster buds and high thc/cbd/cbn very long duration and extreamly sweet taste all the traits passed thru 100%.
with this new grow i am going for f5 stabilization then f6 to f8 on a forward cross. wanting 90% 5.5 feet trait in stable f8. so i have f3 seed as well that all females came in at 5 to 5.5 feet. just incase i need to do some cross backs.

White Widow

This strain is the strongest weed in the world.
The buds have so much THC on them that it is hard to see the bud at all.
The high is extreme and the taste divine.
This weed has won more cups than any before.
On the top of all dutch coffeeshop menu's (mostly the most expensive!)
A must for anyone who thinks they are a smoker !!

PLANT INFORMATION :
Type : Indica - Sativa mix
Climate : indoor
Yield : 450 gr/m2
Height : 35 - 60 cm
Flowering period : 8 weeks
Harvest : begin september
Stoned or High : Extreme high
THC level : strong 20% - 25%
Grow Difficulty : Moderate

 

[gairbud]

the plan was scratched cause everyone wanted me to do the entire 12/12 grow seed in soil to harvest.

smart pots preped. seeds to be used above. almost no ferts to be used as the grow takes about 9 to 10 weeks total and the soil has enough in it. may use corective suplements and some flower nutes but for the most part this is an almost hands free grow.superthrive will be used in 1 drop for every 5 gallons as the b1 may get high/toxic.
the call for widowlicious [f4] was unanimous in the colectives vote. also the f1 aurora/papaya will be after this as the next stage to f2 . everyone really happy with the results , all testers gave a 10 rateing on the mother plants. so f1 hybred vigor is on hold for my widowlicious , back by popular demand.[ps.. and the seed will need the time to dry out some]

3.20.13 seeds dropped in small water jar with 1 drop bleach and 1 drop liquid dish soap.

 

[gairbud]

1.21.13
3 seeds so far have cracked their shell and planted in cubes.
cubes soaked for 3 hrs in 5.5 ph r/o water.
then cubes rinsed with 6.8 r/o water.
ferts added to water and poured over cubes 1 gallon with 1/20 grow fert and 5 drops of root tone. then new hole poked in cubes.[the hole they have are too deep for seed.]

coco coir covered the tops and sprayer[water mister the hood] and tray filled to just below the cubes[not touching.]

 

[gairbud]

the new soil pots. 20 pots air pots. so you can see and learn.
the strain is widowlicous and will be crossing it into itself for f5 and into skywalker ,girl scout and a few others as they need progression genetics.

[gairbud]

heres some update pics.
a very strong male of the D.K.S.#2 [85%indica/15% sativa][seed] with females of d.k.s.#1[seed] , skywalker female[clone] , ice female [seed], buba 98 female [clone][1st generation from original mother , sour d female[clone] , and going to add gdp female #2 [clone], king louie [clone] , and skywalker og [clone] , and head band[clone] from the sorce and a cali blue dream[clone],to the current system. all for upgrades to for seed f1.

only 3 plants havent showed sex yet culled only 3 males and 6 weak females.
i will be adding pics tonight as i move the last plants into the system.
the males genetics run at 25% thc and higher so do the females of the d.k.s. strain. and the the others range from 20% to 28% so a forward cross is needed to improve them all as the strains are a few years old now with no forward progression . the next step is putting an ice male into them all for extra tricome production in all the strains. then seperate them to different males on the forward cross to reenforce them again then take them to f5 and beyond.because of several growers will be growing clones from the best females for each step of the way for 1 to 3 grows[comercial] the improvements will continue untill each has their own power strains to pic ultimate mothers from. right now on the regular seeds i am at over 65% natural females up to 80% so the strains them selfs are way above the curve in reg seed feminized thru naturaul selection. no hermies show in any of the strains except the blue dream which is inherant in the blue dream strain recipee, when i did the blue cronic strain which took alot of grows i eliminated the hermies all together. less then 1/2 % under very bad conditions will one apear. i discontinued the blue cronic for now as quite a few cup strains got popular and blue cronic kicked their ass but what the public likes is the norm so i flowered the entire clone and seed crops and just ran out of the product 1 month ago. many people want it now as the market proved mine better but waiting 2 years for that to happen i already moved on to much better stuff the market is hungryer for now then i can supply so several growers are all helping out with the progress each with their own improved very popular products.they can name it anything they want , i really dont care about that, but when you here airbud or dks you know it is mine but i dont want the fame it just happens from time to time i am very carefull to stat underground as much as posible till fed laws change to all of our favor then i may peek out .
