dyna rider im not shure what the islands are but i got some seeds from some somean guys in long beach few years back they sead the seeds are from older cats that grew up on the mountain side family of theirs and they sead the plants been growing way before anything got out thier, im shure the seeds arent called death widow but they called it the death widow this is back when og first started hitting the seen, can i ask you what goes on out thier and is this strain or any plants native to those island the guys i dont know anything about but that they were from a crew called S.O.S TRIBE he was a security for a mmj and what he sead was his family been growing it for generations he sead the family is realy well nit and nobody could have the seeds but he needed someone to grow it cuz he missed the weed from home????.. what plants are native to those islands ?? could anyone help me figure this out..

@thump easy I neva heard of death widow, not sure about that. Maybe one of the other Hawaiians in here would know. White widow is really common, commercial crop here. If you buy off the street chances are it's white widow.

Thanks Dyna, I thought you were on the Big Island this whole time, that's why I didn't recognize that spot.

@thump easy You've got some beautiful plants bra. We're in the Hawaiian Islands and there's not any cannabis that's actually "native" to the pacific islands, but cannabis has been grown here for a long time. There's too many strains to say what is "native" though and most of the strains that made Hawaii world famous (i.e. Maui Wowee, Kona Gold, Molokai Frost, Puna Budder, Kauai Electric, Elephant Ear, etc.) have either gone extinct or are closely guarded, but there's still world class ganja grown here. It's hard to beat the Hawaiian climate for growing outdoor ganja, especially sativa dominant varieties.

I can't remember hearing about Death Widow here, but there's 8 different islands here (only 6 with any substantial population) so each has it's own strains and some of those make it to other islands, but there's too many strains to know all of them and now we're getting all sorts of Cali weed shipped here too so there is a lot of variety.

That looks rad thump. I prefer the happy/blissful sativa highs, but that doesn't mean I won't smoke the scare-the-crap-out-of-you ones either. They freak me out and for some reason I still like smoking them. They're usually good once the ascent of the high levels out. There was some White Widow coming out of Ka'u district on the Big Island that was getting some fame for having people tripping out and looking through their closed blinds cause they were so paranoid and people were making 2-3 hour round trip drives to go get it.

But in reality there are a lot of islands in this world where people grow cannabis so you may never know the back story for it.

thanks but if you guys hear anything please let me know i dont know if i should crack the seeds it was hard to move and it was airy bud?? i like to keep it alive just in case and seed it up again just in case if it is or was a land race..

It would definitely help if you knew what ethinicity those guys were

what are the odds???

If the guy was Samoan like I thought you said then there's a good chance it's a strain from Western Samoa. There's a lot of cannabis grown in W. Samoa, but good luck trying to contact locals there. It's a third-world country (not that that's bad, I know there's lots of people that love living in third-world islands in the Pacific) and most people don't own computers.

Hey Dyna - Awesome picture! What kind of camera is that?

Yes, that's how I took that picture.

There used to be a strain going around puna called "the death," and it was undoubtedly crossed with the widow, because everyone and their mother was growing widow in puna in the late 90's early 2000's.

SOS tribe (Sons of Samoa) is a gang. I'm guessing anything widow would not have made it to hawaii earlier than around 95 at the earliest, and people were growing here way before that.

Anyone else get a visit by a chopper recently? My friend said a helicopter dropped guys in behind his backyard and pulled 9 plants yesterday. This is on the east side of Oahu

They flew Maui last week or the week before. I don't remember exactly. Maui and the Big Island get a week each, every month from around April through November, though I think I remember them flying the Big Island for longer than a week at least once. I know they fly Oahu at least once a month for at least a week and I don't know where they go for the other week, maybe Kauai. I know it's rare to never for them to fly Molokai and Lanai. So yeah, you should expect them at least once a month. And they don't fly the islands in the same order every month, so you might have a 7 week span in between visits or a 2 week span.

They don't fly during the middle of the winter from November-ish to April-ish so that's when some people take the opportunity to put a lot of plants outside.

What r they flying? H-60's?

On the Big Island I saw the Coast Guard cruising around before while GH choppers were flying and it looked like they were helping out, but that was only once or twice that I saw that. You can do a Google image search for "Hawaii Green Harvest helicopters" and see some pics. I'm not familiar with different types of helicopters.
