Looks good. If you remember can you post a smoke report after the cure. I'm always interested in comparing.

You've got your hands full. Med man is more indica than sativa. Afghan X Brazilian sativa/South India indica. Where did you get the seeds? All mine leaned heavy towards indica. The flower looks nice either way. I would never have looked to stihl for an atomizer.

It was a inherited, clone. Fast grow, fast flower, huge stretch, big buds.

There should be some sativa leaning PHENOS. I just didn't run into one. 25% of the genetic make is sativa. I'm not sure if that translates to 25% of the females expressing themselves in that way? But I'm sure there's a company out there selling S1s from a sativa pheno. They copy everything else and relabel/name it.
I've found it to be the fastest finisher of any widow strain.

Will do. I have another one that is ready to come down, but I am giving it a little while longer because it is heavily seeded. I just won a few more packs over the weekend also. I have some mango widow, skunk haze and nlxafghan on the way to my house.

The pheno that most reminds me of the killer pheno I accidentally lost last go around with Black Widow. Still has a ways to go. Doesn't seem as frosty either but I have some others just starting their bloom as well. We shall see what comes.

Tropical sun is something I want and need. Think I'd be putting down some SSH and some NH in that environment. Can't help ya I'm afraid but I'm sure there are some very interesting phenotypes to be found.

Wow, that is the first decent looking pot I have ever seen grown and posted by this company. 99.9% of what I have seen since overgrow looks like complete garbage or something that may have been decent 30+ years ago.only one i have grown fairly recently is angelheart, lots of phenotypes all had something interesting about them
i kept this one for a while, nice orange hash flavour and good dreamy high, not so great on the yield unless the plants were grown big
peace
^you just must not like haze, when it comes to hazes, Mr. Nice is the absolute best.
Super Silver Haze, Mango Haze, Neville's Haze, Afghan Haze, G13 Haze, NL5Haze, NHS.....etc....
if your looking for Kush, Mr. Nice Seeds isn't the place to go.
Just cuz some of the Haze's aren't absolute frost monsters doesn't mean it's not equal or better than some, if not most of the Kush and other types offered elsewhere.
But I do understand Haze isn't for everybody, and long flowering times really point lots of people in another direction....
however, he has some great short flowering time strains as well (Shark Shock, Medicine Man, Black Widow, etc.) and with all his strains, it comes down to which phenotype you get....some can be absolute knockout strains, but other phenotypes leave something more to be desired....but the cost gets you 15 seeds minimum per pack, so honestly, idk how anyone can complain, because your sure to find a keeper in 15 seeds of his strains.
In fact, Attitude/Choice is where i got the minimum 15 seeds, then i ordered some from Cannazon & got 18 per pack...your talking Shanti, who is one of, if not the absolute best breeder on the planet. So many classic strains have come from this company and it's for a reason.

Yeah, I have heard that echoed over and over again and history shows these strains to be the building blocks of most modern day, but my own experience with medman, blackwidow, sharkshock, and mango haze was awful. It all looked as bad as everyones pics they post in every forum on the internet. The entire forum at icmag for mns is evidence of this, so is shantis forum (althought its been a year since I have visited but there was not one growlog that looked decent), and this one for over a decade I have never seen plants even close to as nice as the ones I quoted. For awhile I thought it was just beginners and then I took the dive my self. I didn't even bother letting the medman pack finish, it was the first strain I have ever culled before completion in thousands of beans. Complete sativa lanjy and tall as hell I thought maybe he just gave me wrong beans. I was supposed to do a grow report on all those and did not bother because it was going to be so harsh. It was honestly worst than the ghs versions I grew and those were awful. I couldn't even sell it and I was in non legal state. They could not come close to anything else I had/have grown.
That angel heart looks fire though if some of his other hazes are of that quality I would def try them out as long as its not a 1 in 20 female thing....

I don't know what to say about that. I've read a lot of bad things throughout my time researching this shit. Personally I ignore most of it and tend to believe that most people aren't happy for one of two reasons. 1st obviously would be it's a beginner grower and it is user error. 2nd is they are under the impression that they are going to pop 18 seeds and get 9 females. Which they should be right about. Where I think the problem comes in is that they either pop too few seeds and only get 1 female and expect it to be the best thing since sliced bread. Or they expect every female to express themselves identically. If you expect either of those things you're looking in the wrong place and I'd suggest finding someone who is breeding with selected MNS genetics. Many if not most breeders genetics can be traced back to these guys. Even if they don't know it. Some breeders like dinafem give MNS credit for the building blocks of their library. Others just rip it off and give it a new name or cross it with something and think they reinvented the wheel. But if you use one of these knock off brands they gain "stability" or less variation. Personally I prefer to do the selecting myself. When I crack a new pack I enjoy looking at the different phenos and comparing them. The struggle I usually have is picking the winner.
I'm working with La nina and Super silver haze now. I started with 15 female La nina and I'm currently rerunning 8 of them. I still have all 15 original cuts. The Super silver haze I started with 12 females and I'm currently rerunning 6 of them. I also still have every cut of these. I reran the cuts that would be best for commercial purposes 1st because the patients only get what makes economical sense for me. As for myself I'm much more concerned with the final product.I call myself a weed snob. I don't mind growing a plant that produces less for myself as long as it top shelf. As the prize buds from each cut cures in a jar I wait to see if any of the less productive plants happen to be something special. After this second harvest I'm going to select the best to start inline breeding them. My plan is to take the best 2 or 3 females of each strain and cross them to make female seed for the inline breeding. That will save me a bunch of time by eliminating the sexing phase. If I don't find the premo keeper I'm looking for I have plenty more original seeds to run. Then I'm going to repeat the process with the other strains I have. With the extra room created by not running each cutting again I've replaced them with 10 skunk/haze and got 6 female, 9 g13/wid and got 4 females, 10 NL/afg and got 6 females. I made the choice of popping less seeds for these strains because I haven't worked with them before. If I enjoy the strain but not satisfied with the results I still have original seeds of these to run also. If I'm not intrigued I'll move on to the next strain.
I know I said I'd upload more pictures and I will. Once again I didn't get as many as I'd like. Since I'm a one man band it's the first thing I put off until the next day and the next. Until suddenly its harvest time and I'm inundated with work.

Here's the only cured pictures I've taken so far. I think this is a super silver haze. But I did a poor job labeling the pictures so I'd have to go back to the jars to confirm.

Here's a few pics of the only super silver haze I took pics of the day of harvest. It was not a producer and isn't being rerun at this time. It's labeled SSH 12 and I can't tell you anything about these yet because it's still curing. The same will be true for the la nina pics I post next.
