Strain: White Rhino from Nirvana, ordered through the attitude. Website says F1 hybrid of White Widow and a "powerful north american indica"
Growth: 10/10 germinated, 1 was culled at a young age for being way behind the rest. 5 males, 4 females.
I would say this strain has an average amount of growth rate. Not really fast or slow. There is a fairly large variation in the phenotypes. 2 plants had narrower leaves and a longer internodal distance, 2 had more of an indica dominance in growth. (these are my keepers)
Fairly quick to clone.
The first couple weeks of flower showed a fair bit of stretch (athough i'm not seeing it as much on the tables)
The buds grow in wide, solid, spiralling towers that have a nice blanket of trichomes.
Nutes: Holland Secret 3 part.
Yield: right around 3/4 oz per plant, not bad considering they were chopped up for clones right before flower. The true test shall be on the Ebb and flow tables(where all them clones went), only a few weeks left on those. Goody goody!
Bag Appeal: Pretty damn good, it's white rhino.
Smell: All through flower i wasn't that impressed with the smell, kind of plastic-ey if you know what i mean. However in the last couple weeks of its life it developed a very pungent lemon/citronella odour. Very good. My girlfriend says it smells like juicyfruit gum, i can see where shes coming from.
Taste: Not too bad, very sweet and lemony with a small amount of expansion in the lungs. I haven't had time for a full 3 month cure, but after a couple weeks it tastes pretty damn good. There is a bit of a hashy taste on the exhale that leaves your mouth watering for more.
The High: Not quite what i expected. I've always heard tales of the ass kicking, narcotic, super stoney body high of white rhino (aka medicine man). Well there is definitely more to it than that. Right off the bat it puts a nice buzz in your head with a feeling of euphoria that eventually does evolve into a strong body stone. Gave me the giggles. There is a bit of a burnout, but nothing too drastic.
I wouldn't call this an ideal daytime smoke, but a fat joint of the WR before a movie/concert/anything (and maybe a couple during) will certainly make it alot better.
Comments: I have to admit I was really skeptical of nirvana, how could their genetics be as good as breeders who charge 5 times more. Well overall i'm fairly impressed. It took a full pack of seeds to find a decent mother, but i found a mother so i can't complain.
I'm really impressed with how well this strain is doing 12/12 from clone on the hydro tables. Has some serious SOG potential!!! If you want a strain with some fat, frosty nugs with a pleasant taste and an indica dominant hybrid high, this might be the strain for you.
I'm still thinking i'm gonna try greenhouses Rhino and maybe Serious' Russian just for compairisons sake. All in good time.
Heres the ebb and flow packed with WR
Nice bushy growth with branching that begs to be cloned.
Job well done, time to reward myself.
