I am thinking about growing this strain next. What is the average height of it as I will grow it in a tent? Is it as potent as they say it is? Also, what are the average yeilds like? Thanks in advance gals/guys.

all potency and yields are only as good as the grower growing it.. you can have the best plant with the strongest potency but unless you grow it properly and care for it you will only get what you put into it..as far as white widow its a great stone with some very gnarley buds,, lots of nitrogen during vegg.. it WILL get twice the size when flipped into flower.. smell is strong and indoor when vegged for about a month then flipped and topped you should get about a half pound from one plant if its about 3-4 feet tall when finished.. blue widow is another widow breed..leave the plant in total darkness for the last 3 days and only water the last 2 weeks

Which breeder are you going with?I have grown Dinafem,Greenhouse,and Mr.Nice(Black Widow) strains of WW.All 3 were potent and were pretty easy to grow.all handled nutes well.Greenhouse Seeds have s pretty bad reputation but their White Widow strain was straight Fire...I yielded almost 7 oz. off a 5 foot plant vegged for a month under 400 watt mh and flowered under 600 wt hps. for 8 wks.grown in cheap soil with compost and 20% perlite and Bio Bizz grow&bloom. The bud was potent as hell,really good pain reliever and helped with anxiety and nausea.

5 feet holy shit, didnt think WW would grow that tall. I just started growing this year. My first plant was auto black widow. It grew about 3ft. I got 3oz off of it. It is probably medium potency. It has alot of sativa characteristics to it. Smoked some at 8pm, had hard time getting to sleep at 11. Now I have 2 blue dream, 3 tangerine dream and one called the black on the go. The blue dream plants are almost 6ft tall. I grow in about 3 gal pot using Pro Mix and am using Dutch nutrient Formula grow and bloom nutes. Also add worm castings and perlite to the mix.

If you like the Black try the Big from BCBD,some of the best herb I ever grew.

Got 5 Mr. Nice Regular Black Widow's in the cabinet now.
Planted directely into 2 gallon Hempy buckets 65/35 Perlite/Coco Coir on 12/23/14 and all had sprouted by 12/27 under 2'x4 bulb T5's. Capped the buckets with pure Coir on 12/31 and transfer to my cabinet under a SS400 LED, about 235W in the veg mode. May switch to a 400W MH but have had good results from the 400 in veg. Will flower under a 400W HPS.
Just a few pics.

What's wrong with growing in straight perlite? I've done it for years with great results..do some homework, many people use it!
What is your irrigation method? I have grown in pure Perlite but had to water daily sometimes twice in a 24 hr period. Got a good clean grow out of it. So there is nothing wrong with straight Perlite, if that works for you. Good growing friend!

I use a recirculating hempy style hydro irrigation system that feeds every 3-4 hours depending on where the plant is up to. I have a pot with holes in a pot with only one hole on the side to drain back to the res. I love perlite, it has always done me well :) i also use it in straight hempy buckets as well and usually water once a day ;)
Good growing to you too mate :-D

jesus do you grow in like pure perlite? lmfao
Lmfao bro u can grow in anything long as the medium can stay wet. The system Eastcoast is talking about I use too and just harvested a Blue Dream beast in all perlite. The link is in my signature. But I've seen people use mattress foam different cotton materials. Perlite is very good medium to use clean inert and gnats and other pests can't breed in it. But like someone said it dries out pretty quick so it's best to use a hydro system of some sort but like gr865 said he hand watered his but I couldn't do that with the size plant I had.

Agreed Ruby, once its dialled in it's pretty close to the perfect medium :)
Have you got any pics of your 8000w setup? Would love to see that :-D
That setup was from the days of pathetic nokia 5110 mobiles lol...prob around 1999/00 so no pics but wish i did have some.After that for 5 yrs it was down to one plant and 1 light due to the nazi laws here.Under the 8000wts i only done 10 plants and veged for 8 weeks from ready to go clones....they were gigantic mofos but im telling a story with no proof so its just my word.Mostly northern lights x haze
