Wow! A great indoor Sativa that, with some work and pruning can be managed for an high yielding indoor grow. Only noticed two phenotypes in my pack of seeds. One was lankier than the other, with fluffier buds. Overall a great yield and works well in soil and hydroponics setups, with both organic and chem ferts.

Cloning is about average and there is no need to veg, as light will always be set to 11-12 hours. Bud production starts and continues building up over the long flowering period in true Sativa style. For a Sativa, a finishing time of 10-11 weeks is pretty good with no veg. One problem was the major branch tieing required as the lanky stems and branches are no match for the heavy buds. You may also need to prune the tops in the first 4 weeks since this plant wants to grow to 6-8 feet if it can.

Cure buds to maximize the spicy smell and taste. The smoke is smooth and very fruitylicious. Fairly potent, especially if grown with Chem ferts but better taste and flavour from soil+organic.

Last thing, Girls just seem to love this strain! (pssst...it's the
part about smoking and having sex). Girlfriend not into pot you say? Grow some WW together and enjoy the pleasures of life.
