Seb's take

Seb Silverback

White Widow crossed with Northern Lights for a smooth-tasting variation on the Widow line, well suited to hydroponics. Sweet, earthy and pine sit over a tarry skunk base; the stone is powerful, though the mood stays happy, uplifted and properly giggly. Dense, sticky buds, big yields.

Where it comes from

White Widow crossed with Northern Lights, and Nirvana Seeds make no secret of the ambition - a smoother variation on the Widow line, with Northern Lights lending its indica ballast. Two of the more thoroughly pedigreed names in the cabinet, which is presumably why the offspring inherited the frost of one and the stone of the other. Sixty-five per cent indica by the record's reckoning; the White in the name is earned honestly by the trichomes rather than borrowed.

Nose & flavour

Sweet and earthy up front, with pine threading through and a skunk-and-tar base that keeps it from turning polite. The record notes a smooth taste for all that - the sort of smoke that reads rougher on paper than it drinks. Dense, sticky buds under a coat of trichomes; she will gum up your scissors before the trim is halfway done.

The high

A powerful indica stone, the record says, though the mood it arrives in is anything but heavy - happy, uplifted, and properly giggly before the body settles into relaxed euphoria. A companionable sort of evening rather than a solitary one. Strong underneath the good humour, so pace it accordingly and keep the later hours clear.

Growing it

She takes eight to ten weeks in flower - fifty-six to seventy days - and answers particularly well to hydroponics, where the big yields the record promises come through most reliably at 400 to 500 g/m². Height is not set down, so I will describe temperament instead: dense, sticky, resin-heavy buds mean ventilation and a carbon filter are wise, and a light hand with the humidity in the final stretch. Otherwise an unfussy grower that repays clean technique.
