I've grown Seedsman White Widow and it was pretty good, it wasn't close to being a one hit wonder by my standards, but I would say it is better than most if not all knockoff White Widows, which includes Green House Seeds White Widow.I wonder how much better Seedsman WW is to GreenHouse's WW.... anyone?
from what I hear seedsman is actually closer to the origional ww. the true ww is actually mr nice seeds black widow.
you guys are all so ignorant. howard marks never worked at the greenhouse or for themActually howard marks aka Mr.Nice, while working at greenhouse, made the
original white widow. Now Mr.Nice works with shantibaba. Both greenhouse
and Mr.Nice claim to have the original WW, but Mr.Nice renamed his version
black widow because so many other companys claim to have WW. So
try Mr.Nices, then try greenhouses WW, and its evident which is the real one.
What if the supplier was none other than SB?you guys are all so ignorant. howard marks never worked at the greenhouse or for them
shanti made it, and all the early greenhouse shit that was good. arjan just was marketting. they fell out and shanti moved onto mr nice which he set up with howard and neville in switzerland. he took all his parent plants with him so the black widow is the same as the greenhouse ww that won in 95. arjan and the rest bought their seeds and did an ibl to release their own "white widow" but the original is shantis. everything other than the black widow is not real white widow no matter how awesome it is. i got 4 of the ww from seedsman in atm, 2 60/40 phenos a sativay one and a nice stout indica, and they are lovely, looking great but they just are not real white widow no matter how much you pray they are
one golden rule of breeding, its all about the specific parents. good male selection is fucking hard and shanti is the king of this game. second golden rule is never let ur males go anywhere but your library. he never gave up the males. so fair enough it is most likely a very very well done back cross from seeds of white widow. but this would then involve stabilising out over a number of generations and essentially changing the plant from the original.What if the supplier was none other than SB?
I know back about 2008 (ish) the head honcho Tom siad they were from SB personaly.
Shanti as and still does supply "bulk" seed, Seedsman being one of the main wholesale resellers its logical to
Here are some pics of nuts from this plant just left out to dry.seedsman white widow chopped at day 69 I burned them I forgot that they are nutes sensitive and I was using fox farms OF too hot for this strain.
