Daaaamn. Hammer and prop215 bringing the frost. Saw animal cookies for the first time a few weeks ago, way more impressive in the look and smell department than the forum cut.

The KWT used in the CPH Kush, is actually a S1 of the Niterider cut im running. I hate the fact that Zen keeps calling it KWT as it adds confusion. Many ppl grow out the KWT fems and call it the White.. Just trying to clear things up for folks..

Stay Safe
OK

Anyway, heres my KWT:

The thing I notice... and don't care for about "The White" is that while it does have TONS of trichs, they are very long and many of those trichs don't even possess glandular resin heads... so you end up with a bud that is very white and looks very frosty but it does't sparkle as much as some other buds and under magnification one can see a field of long trichome stalks with a proportionately low amount of resin heads (relative to the trich production)
gotta agree with that,
after looking for a while it seems some of the indica varieties are very hairy , lots of trichome stem/stalks,
but like infinatesimal i notice a shortage of trichomes for the amount of stalks ,,,

makes it look like they have more resin than others with that "white look" , the white look is due to the trichome stalks , not the resin unfortunately ...
resin glitters as infinatesimal pointed out ...

it adds to the theory that "look" is everything to a lot of the folks on the boards and likely elsewhere ,

other folks dont give a hoot what it looks like ,, as long as it works properly ...

that's quite interesting. ive never seen the white under a lens. what I notice a lot on these strains is that the bud looks like many others but they have the sugar leaf curl which looks like a double layer aswell.

I only see glitter with clear heads. When they get cloudy they dont glitter anymore.. From what I remember the white jones had full heads there all cloudy therefore no sparkle. If you man handle your plants you will lose allot of heads. I treat all my Lady's with care through out ther entire life span including the drying process. I dont trim wet I only remove the large fans everything else stays on until she is dry enough to trim..

I'd have to agree with that too Wal, noticed it on the White Widow I grew years ago.I was also just looking at some Wifi under the 'scope coincidently, and it's the same. Lots of stalks, and lots without heads. And it definitely hasn't been manhandled.

Cheers
Timmy!

Treating the plants like they are radioactive while they are growing is how I get done. The less you molest them the better they look. Every time someone touches a live plant and gets sticky fingers, the potentcy just went down a little. One of my ex- partners was good for that, raping the still growing buds. On more than one occasion he almost got punched in the face for it. Same goes for one of my dad's old grow bro's, raping my plants like he grew them, that's a big no-no in my book.

I have not encountered plants with just stalk. It would be a very weak strain if it did.. Stop poking your fingers into your buds. It doesnt take much to behead them.

This was after cure TWJ. She was yummy

I know this thread is a bit old now. I had to comment on 4 Dragons Warhammer though. I was blessed with 2 beans. One didn't make it. The other though... she isaid a truly stunning plant. I will search for ways to contact you, 4 Dragons.

Yeah Bodhi has the white lotus. and lucky charms.

White lotus is The White x Snow lotus
Lucky Charms The white x Appalachia

Useful Idiot has a lucky charms x white lotus that should be mostly the White.

All organic grown in amended compost, peak summer light dep, and the White came out incredibly pungent with a powerful funk stank OG nose. I'll grow this strain in a dep for the rest of my life. Insane hash strain.
