really along side a "reputation" system we also need an "negative-reputation" (for lack of a better word) to sort out posters who don't know wtf they talking about and people who speak the truth. Sure everyone to some extent would get negative rep because someone doesn't agree with them...but the most idiotic posters will get most neg rep so they can be sorted out.

I grew slh and it was eh, kinda ok. If it was the strongest you've had, you're missing out on some real goodies out there.

Yeah man haven't smoked as much weed as you people here and dunno it felt like the strongest to me I went to amsterdam the moment I had it and I was searching for something like that without success.Even the greenhouse SLH wasn't as potent, maybe its cause he flowered it like 12+ I think....

I did not say it was a weak strain, read what I wrote. I'm just saying that white widow have been hyped up so much (at least where I'm from) that it should be damn near impossible to live up to the hype. I'm sure white widow is an excellent strain, and it seems like a strain that I would enjoy, but I doubt it is this miracle weed of a next dimension that many think it is. You can easily sell 5 grams of White Widow for 170$ over here (5g of anything else costs 130$, to put it in perspective of the prices here). Just putting the nametag on bumps the price 40 bucks up.
It's like the movie Avatar. It was hyped beyond what is reasonable to expect, even from something that's excellent.

If you missed it earlier in the thread, black widow is the real white widow. It is from Mr. Nice and it is great. Often not the best tasting, to be honest, but the best phenos have moster potency. It is also a great plant for breeding stock. Medicine man is a pretty killer hybrid with great medicinal value made with the real widow and an afghani, I believe, it was originally white rhino (again, I think) but changed like the widow due to too many imitations.

IMO, White Widow and Nothern Lights. I smoked both on many occasions at many different coffeeshops, and I was never particularly impressed. Don't care much for the smell/taste. They get me high, but it's really not anything special. I am pretty sure I had properly grown, real deal WW ad NL. For example, I had bio grown NL#5 at Sensi's coffeeshop in Rotterdam. It was good, but not nearly as good as people say.
It's not real White Widow if it's not Mr. Nice. LOL, who told you, or what made you even think it was "real" White Widow? Everyone knows the original is hard to come by, especially in a coffee shop.
Dude, coffee shops rarely have something that is worth smoking when it comes to old genetics. Most old genetics from the 90's have been crossed and back crossed but still retain the same name. Sorry, but you missed the boat by about 20 years if you want some REAL ORIGINAL genetics. See, all these people that gave good smoke reports smoked the shit when it first came around, anything after is just watered-down genetics.
And Northern Lights #5 hasn't been around for years, just crosses. And if you want the real Widow, order a pack of Black Widow from MNS, those are the original genetics, not some coffee shop bullshit.
p.s.- if someone knows of a breeder with NL#5, enlighten me. NOT NL x Haze
lol you mad bro?
If you meant Northern Lights #5 hasn't been around for years in seed form then that's what you should have fucking wrote.
And all I was saying is that NL#5 is alive and strong. My buddy has a old cut of it. Sorry you're such an agro asshole.

"Not around" isn't true.
Admittedly, lots of the commercial versions aren't great, and even Sensi Seeds' version has supposedly gone downhill, but people have kept personal lines of this for years in clone and seed form; the genetics haven't been lost.
Since NL#5 is a true breeding line (in fact, its probably the "ultimate" indoor inbred line), its entirely possible for the line to retain potency after being inbred, even after many generations.
Dr. Atomic's version is supposed to be excellent, and I'd start there.
Mr. Nice's "Ortega" is probably an excellent rendition.
BC Seeds is also supposed to have a good one.

Not only are there any number of sellers claiming pure Northern lights lines, but in fact this is probably THE most widely sold cannabis line there is, period. Here are a "few" examples:
KC Brains Northern Lights special
Sagarmantha Seeds Northern Lights #9
Seedsman seeds Northern lights
Sensi seeds Northern lights
Doggies Nuts Northern lights.
Ministry of cannabis Northern lights
Pyramid seeds Northern lights
White Label Northern lights.
There are probably half a dozen more autoflowering versions which I won't bother listing, since they're clearly not "pure" enough for you.
Now, I can't tell you who has the "pure" genetics, or which lines are good and which are not, but I think its probably safe to assume that at least a FEW of these are true NL#5 genetics, and at least a few are good. See my last post for three other versions with good reputations.

PeakseedsBC has a rep for having a legit NL. It's believable as the mother/father plants did find their way to the island years ago. I'm growing 6 out right now, still haven't shown sex. Flip gonna happen soon. Was planning to do a journal but not quite ready to start that yet. Sometime in the next week hopefully. Probably when I flip.
It's supposedly true breeding for a number of things, the plants look fairly uniform thus far. Some more vigorous than others, big fat ass indica leaves.
Since we're on the topic of old school genetics, I'm also doing 18 Black Widows and 6 sweet skunks (also peakseedsbc).
Plus Sannies Sugar Punch (6x), Extrema (5x), Mad Shack (1x), Critical Mass 33 freebie, Purple Kush x Blueberry (peakseeds again)x5 and that's it for now.
Next up?
Maybe MNS Critical Mass, NLxHaze, TGA Vortex, C99 from Peakseeds, Kush x Skunk (PSBC again), or Cheese #1 from kaliman.
If I run em... I'll pop em all. I'm fuckin tired of the local genetics for the most part, so it goes.
I also have my killing fields coming back into my stable in about 3 weeks.
I also have some Tombstone gifted to me by Phx which are in the ground at a friends (10x) and Qush (also at friends). Those will be run eventually. I wanted to get em in the ground though before I could really get started so we'll see how they end up.

bodhi had a nl cross sometime bet its legit too....

The bodhi was like tt nl #6 x bcsc nl #5, one would have to have some exp with those breeders to know what the parentage is like but it's supposedly dank.
Mister Nice has the Ortega which is #1 x #5, I have eyeballed this one for years. It's supposedly got both representations in it's progeny.
You probably already knew this though...
