How to grow Peace Maker
Taste
Seb's take
Brazilian Super Skunk and South Indian White Widow, crossed into something that has quietly won three separate cannabis cups under two different names. Few have tried it, which given the trophy cabinet seems more oversight than caution. Notoriously strong, and the sort of peace that follows exhaustion rather than diplomacy.
Where it comes from
De Sjamaan crossed Brazilian Super Skunk with South Indian White Widow for Peace Maker, a 40 percent indica, 60 percent sativa line that has quietly won three separate cannabis cups, two of them under a different name. The record lists a first prize in the bio category at the 1997 High Times Cannabis Cup, a second that same year under the name White Shark, and a third in the Growshop bio category at the 1999 Highlife Cup. Few have had the privilege of trying her, which given that trophy cabinet reads more as oversight than caution.
Nose & flavour
The record does not itemise the aroma, so I will not invent notes it withholds. Drawing on Brazilian Super Skunk and South Indian White Widow, a pungent, resinous character is the reasonable inference from both parents, though I will leave the specifics where the record left them. What it does stress is a plant notorious for power of unseen proportions, the kind you will want available anytime once tried. A formidable, if unlisted, nose on that basis.
The high
The record leans on the strain's notoriety rather than detailing the effect experientially, so I will not manufacture a profile. It describes a power of unseen proportions, the sort that leaves you wanting it on hand anywhere, which points to a substantial experience befitting three cup wins. The peace in her name, one suspects, is the kind that follows exhaustion rather than diplomacy. Approach her with the respect a decorated, potent strain deserves.
Growing it
A tall regular strain, reaching 150 to 250cm, so give her serious headroom or train her down. She flowers across 56 to 70 days. THC is listed simply as high, with no figure attached, so I will not invent one, and the CBD reading is likewise noted only as high. The genetics are 40 percent indica, 60 percent sativa. The record gives no yield, so I will describe temperament instead: a rare, decorated plant few have grown, tall and potent, and worth the space for a grower after something out of the ordinary.
