Mandala Seeds
This robust variety is subtle in aroma and silky smooth in taste.
White Satin a good choice for the novice gardener and
experienced grower alike. She combines genetics from one of
the historic homes of great landrace genetics, the area of
Punjab, North India, to deliver the triple treat of power, quality
and flexibility with a relatively short flowering time of 65 days.
White Satin has a slim growth pattern, with medium-long
side shoots and a generous main bud that is perfect for sea of
green from seed or clone. This 50/50 hybrid is also versatile
enough to make a good SCROG or multi-branch plant. White
Satin’s main flower power is located on her central stem, but
her side shoots also deliver quality “nuggets.” The stems are
firm and can easily support heavy colas in outdoor locations.
Even under low light, such as under fluorescent tubes, White
Satin’s performance is very satisfying; however, for optimal
yields, Mandala recommends 400 watts or more per square
meter. White Satin also performs well when grown in soil with
organic nutrients. This strain’s medium height, good yield and
well-balanced, intensive high have made her a popular variety
for all levels of indoor cultivators. Plants can be started and
harvested with fairly minimal effort.
Because White Satin can develop an extremely large and
dense main cola, during the last 2 weeks of flowering it’s a
good idea to keep humidity under 50%, and temperature above
68˚F (20°C) in the dark cycle, as a preventative measure
against mold. Outdoors, she does best up to 48 degrees latitude
or in climates with a dry autumn.
White Satin’s buds are characterized by a broad oval shape
and large calyxes. The most resinous plants will cover many
leaves with trichomes and provide an extra treat for hash
enthusiasts. White Satin’s growing odor is light—and stealthy—
but pleasant. The cured buds exude a mild apricot aroma and a
fresh sweet taste. This is a pleasure smoke, with a fresh,
mentally stimulating high, but no heavy body or mind
incapacitation. That makes her a great, functional choice for a
daytime enjoyment.
