i am currently growing northern lights x skunk #1. It is a pretty resilient strain, good for first time growers. The buds get pretty fat and is usually ready in the standard 8 weeks. The high is great, smooth smoke and mostly head high if you harvest 10% amber. i highly recommend if this is indeed your first grow.

I also grow white rhino which is a descendant of white widow. I've grown it a few times now and have only had good success this last round. it was a tricky beast to conquer but now that i have it down it seems to be flying. tends to take 9-10 weeks though. haven't had a great harvest of this yet so i'm not 100% sure on how good the high is. current plants are 3 weeks into flower and already over 40" tall.

hope that helps. (go for the NL x S)
