What is making people laugh is that if it is real Black Widow, they aren't feminized since Shantibaba has not marketed feminized seeds so far. Not all that long ago he did offer a very limited number of feminized seeds of some strains on his auction site, something of a public test, but none were released to seedbanks. If someone buys feminized Black Widow seeds they are either Positronics knockoff/fake/imitation Black Widow or a feminized F2 version of Shantibaba's Black Widow made by someone other than Shantibaba. So if feminized, they are not the Real McCoy Black Widow genetics.
Are you talking about the Mr. Nice Black Widow? I read that he is known to have created the original white widow.
This is a serious smoke once it cures properly. The best thing you can do for this strain is making sure it dries for the right amount of time, and drying for longer than usual is better than not drying enough. Err on the side of extra. Once cured then you really capture the nature of the smoke. His strain is a one hitter quitter.
Do not put the lights closer than 1 foot to the plant - check the heat output! Do this by making sure your hand can withstand the heat emanating from the heatsource for at least three minutes. If your hand can't handle three minutes of light then its too strong for the black widow.
Finally a big one here is don't over-nute! This strain is a picky b*tch that's why she's a widow. Most widow strains are not for novice growers.
Black Widow is not a nute sensitive strain and is not a finicky strain to grow. The breeder, Shantibaba, says Black Widow is for the inexperienced grower to the most advanced grower. Shantibaba does say which strains of his line are easy to grow and which are not the easiest of strains to grow. The only, as you call them, "Widow strain" that I have known to be nute sensitive (both under and over fertilization) and finicky has been Blue Widow, and that is because of the Blueberry in it, which is well known for being nute sensitive.Finally a big one here is don't over-nute! This strain is a picky b*tch that's why she's a widow. Most widow strains are not for novice growers.
