Picked up a 5 pack from the booth at the 2013 Emerald Cup. 3 of 5 popped, an 2 of the 3 are variegated.



And the non-variegated one, hoping this is a female.


Are variegated plants worth keeping around?

That's the weakest of variegation, if what I'm looking at is what I think you're talking about. Unless it increased as the plants grow, I wouldn't worry about it.

I harbor doubts whether that actually is variegation. Maybe a deficiency?

There's no question if it is, just wondering if its worth keeping around?

Don't know if I will keep the 2 doing this if it keeps progressing. Cant afford to grow weak meds. An what I keep reading is plants that are highly variegated are weaker in potency. Time will tell I guess.

Thanx kolah, gonna keep her around for a run to see what they all do. Appreciate all the info, Dj definitely has some killer funky looking girls. Now that I see the comparison I realize it's a light form of variegation.
Mahalo!

Ended up keeping 1 Black Widow. She was the non variegated lady, since I didn't have the space for the others.

Here she is....

She didnt like the H&G coco i transplanted her in an with epsom the salt overkill just messed with her. She is in week 1 of flower now an coming back to health but not where i wanted her going into flower. Fingers crossed she does well. Got clones to try again off her so will see if she's a keeper.

So to recap, 3 of 5 pop. Of those 3, all males. Killed the last one i thought was female. It didn't show preflowers developed enough till now an they were a cluster of sacs when i checked last night. Went all the way to the Emerald Cup for his work. No widow for me.

Ya asked me to let ya know how they do at the booth When I bought them, there ya go. Maybe next year after I get done payin for my sons college I'll grab some more for another try. Thanks for doing what ya do Shanti.

Damn...not so good for MNS and his BW. I always thought this was primo strain...maybe you just got unlucky.

Have you thought of contacting Howard Marks and explaining your experience? Sometimes breeders will send you some freebies ,,,,.it never hurts to ask.
