Starting a new grow soon to keep me busy during rehab post bypass surgery.
Probably won’t get started with actual grow for another 4 to 6 weeks but I will have help so it could be sooner.
Will be a RDWC grow probably using 400w and then 1000w HPS.
I have 4 different strains to choose from for this run all of which I’ve had for over 15 years -
Mr. Nice Super Silver Haze
Chimera Calizahr
Nirvana White Widow
Cannabiogen Destroyer
Don’t have the zipper yet - happens next week. Local docs afraid to crack my chest and sent me to a doc with very good record in high risk surgeries.
I won’t be able to slack off on the rehab, my wife has been in the rehab line of work for years and is absolutely relentless.
Nice selection of older strains not seen too often these days! Decisions, decisions!
Here’s a genetic breakdown of your strain choices.
SSH… (Skunk#1 x Haze C) x (NL#5 x Haze C)
Calizahr… California Orange x Shiskaberry red line
White Widow… Brazil x India
Destroyer… (Mexico x Colombia) x Meao Thai
It’s a difficult decision, but I think you picked the right one to start with. Calizahr is a strain I haven’t seen around in quite a while. It’s got great genetics, as do the other three, but it’s got the Shiskaberry red line in it and should be grown out.
Maybe consider a preservation run with at least three of those strains… the Calizahr, Destroyer and SSH could use it more so than White Widow. White Widow is still found pretty easily… the others are not. Just a thought.
My thought process exactly.
I’ve already ran a test germinate on 2 WW and 2 Destroyer and got 100% cracked and grown out by my son. Both Destroyer were males and pollinated the 2 WW females. Have a bunch of the seeds from that cross also. Need more space to grow out some of those to see if anything interesting is there.
Calizahr is still in the lead and will be grown with the purpose to preserve the genetics as will the others when I get to them.
Id go with the destroyer and calizahr for the first run. They seem like theyd help the most after heart surgery… id love some of those ww destroyer seeds too @Bullitt, pm me if youd like to trade for something…
I’m gonna pop a couple of the Destroyer X WW to see if they are viable. If they are good I’ll let you know, I would be happy to toss some of these around.
Yeah, I agree. I hear WW is really easy to grow and you can dial everything in before running more rare beans. I have thought about buying some old WW from a Dutch company and finding a keeper. Just to be able to bust out some killer White Widow at a concert or something. Make all those old stoners excited.
