STRAINS FOR GROW #4

BLUE WIDOW
This F1 hybrid of Blueberry and White Widow marijuana seed has been created to give flavour, taste and colour. The intense
sweet & sour taste of White Widow and the forest berry aroma of Blueberry, when mixed, create a blend of fruity sweets
that smells like chewing gum. Due to its Blueberry heritage, in low outdoor temperatures this plant displays autumnal colours,
turning from blue to purple and even reddish colours when the temperature drops even further. It also grows somewhat taller
than pure White Widow, displaying larger internodal distance as well.
It has great upward growth and can double in size as it starts flowering making it a good choice for a SCROG.
Outdoors it can reach 3m tall which, along with good dry weight production, the precocity of the blue mother and the resin
production and sedative power of the White Widow father, guarantees high production. It is a good producer of fat purple
buds totally coated with trichomes, with a fruit chewing gum taste and a nice strength. It shows good mould resistance but
particular care is recommended during the last two weeks of flowering, because the size of the buds increases significantly
which can lead to the appearance of mould. It survives well when grown in a continental or Mediterranean climate, where it
can develop all its aromatic potential.
Flowering period: 50-55 days
Harvest outdoors: Until 10th October
T.H.C: High (12%-16%)
C.B.D: Medium
Production: High
Height outdoors: Can reach 3m
Blend: Indica-Sativa, with Indica dominance

Price $14.37 feminized seed, Dinafem Seeds

for some people. However, if you love an intense and powerful high, White Rhino will most definitely suit your needs!

2nd prize Champions Cup 2005.

SKUNK #1
The strain that changed cannabis culture and has astonished weed lovers for more than a quarter-century is now available
from Sensi Seeds as a top-quality feminized variety!
Breeders regard Skunk #1 as the benchmark of uniform, reliable performance and her rock-solid genotype has influenced a
hundred modern hybrids. The potency of this branch of the cannabis family tree is so notorious that ‘skunk’ is often used as
a general term for all powerful ganja.
Sensi´s new feminized Skunk #1 is remarkably uniform when grown from seed, with plants displaying consistent structure and
regular bud formation time and time again. In almost 30 years of experience with the strain, this is the finest example of
feminized Skunk #1 that we´ve ever seen!
Skunk #1’s energetic performance and bountiful yields demonstrate the true meaning of hybrid vigour. Growth and flowering
are mostly-Indica in appearance, though Skunk plants gain more height than pure Indicas when blooming. Flowering is both
rapid and rewarding, as Skunk #1 produces robust stems and branches to support her superior yields. Short internode gaps
explode into dense, rounded bud-clusters which merge into huge, heavy colas by harvest time. Skunk #1’s Sativa genes have
a subtle effect on flower structure plus a wonderful influence on her effect – a stunningly potent combination of stone and
high!
Flowering: 45-50 days
Yield: 100g
Height: 120-150cm
Price $7.05/feminized seed, Sensi Seeds

gr/plant. Great resin production and very resistant to mould! Recommended for humid or rainy areas.

JACK HERER
This multiple Cannabis Cup Winner is undoubtedly one of the most special types of marijuana in the cannabis world today.
Named in honour of the late Jack Herer, the world famous global hemp activist and author of 'The Emperor Wears No
Clothes'. Many years of extensive breeding and special selection gave way to this multiple Haze hybrid that will deliver good
yields of medium density buds glistening with juicy, resin coated Haze bracts that have a fresh and peppery, pungent Haze
smell mixed with a hint of fruity skunk. Jack Herer has an award-winning flavour of strong peppered Haze spiced with a
delicious dash of fruity acridness and the effects have a quick onset with a strong uplifting cerebral high and a giggly edge.
Definitely one for the connoisseur.

Looks I got a front row seat to one of the best CFL growers I've ever seen.

Check ya later bro and keep em green.

Thanks for the kind words bro, yeah it's time for us to get our grows on.... I still got alittle work yet to do in my grow area, trying to make it air tight to help w/ordor control down the road..... I've researched those Ona blocks or jell and allot of growers claim they do the job.... also may diy carbon filter exhaust fan.... hope to be cracking seeds this weekend, I struggle w/germination all the time, I even researched again these past days.... I use rockwool and PH water of 5.5-5.6, let the rw soak for 24 hours, slightly ring out, place seed point down, cover w/clear lid and place a heating pad under the pan, then I cover the lid w/black towell... I hope I have better luck this grow... later bro

Hey I wouldn't consider myself as an expert by any means but I just germed 6 seeds and 5 out of the 6 cracked. All I do is take one paper towel and fold it twice to make a square. I open one fold and lay my seeds in there. I lay the paper towel down on a coffee cup saucer and wet it with just plain old tap water and I don't worry about pH at all. Then I put the saucer in a zip lock bag and seal it up, then place it in a nice warm spot. Within 36 hrs I had 5 of em cracked and within 48 hrs had em in solo cups and placed into a humidity dome with the fluorescent lights right on top as close as I could without touching. Within 72 hrs I've got sprouts. I've never had a problem germinating seeds so you might want to give that a try.

Good luck bro and keep me updated.

Peace.
