Hawaii Maui wauwi

Was thinking about growing this for my dad cause he's kinda old school with his pot. Anyone got anything to say about nirvana's Hawaii Maui waui?

man ive been lookin at that for awhile never grew or smoked it though id love to know to

I grew it out in 2008 and it was very nice. The plant was grown outside in the ground the first time and finished a little over 7 meters and bigger around. One plant grown in container was more indica pheno but was a great producer. The sativa leaning pheno was great and I still have a few buds in a jar I break out from time to time. Not the same maui I use to get in the 70's but it did bring back memories.
For an old timer he would love it if not for anything more than the thought.

I grew this one (from fem seeds) earlier this year. I only sampled the "old school" maui from the seventies once in my life, but I was a different person then (hadn't tried nearly as many strains at that point, and didn't smoke much at all either)...but I doubt it's the same thing. I wouldn't say it's a poor representation of Maui Waui (it's still a good smoke,and I too still have some in my stash that I save when I want a slightly different effect than some of the other strains that I grew at the same time. It was my favorite of the three, but one of the others (Sweet Seeds Sweet Tai) was a better producer, so I have much more of it left to consume. If I had my choice, I'd smoke Nirvana's Hawaii Maui before the Sweet Tai...but I'd also choose a few other strains that I've grown in the past over the MW.

Bottom line, imo...it's worth growing out (esp since Nirvana's prices are relatively good), but it's not quite up to par to the Maui from the seventies, so if your dad's got high expectations, he might be a little disappointed.

Thanks for the info

becarefull if its anything like hawaiian snow its nute sensitive, i burned up my snows with half strenght nutes

Good to know. I didn't even think about that. What would be a good way to test the sensitivity of a plant? Just go full bore on it and keep an eye on it? Or gradually work up to the recommended dosage?

I found the Nirvana Maui Waui to be pretty easy to grow. Clones easily, and didn't appear to be too nute sensitive (although I really didn't push it much). Although apparently they can grow quite tall, I had little trouble containing mine in a three foot high grow space with topping and tying down. It's actually a fun plant to grow, and looks pretty, too.
