this is not my first grow but it is my first journal i decided to share with you here at rollitup.

i am open to any suggestions,questions,help or anything else anyone may have or want. You can post anything you want in here as soon its relevant to this grow . So lets start the journal.
Swiss Cheese is one of the strains I'm considering.

Have you ever smoked it or grown it before this time?

kostas are you attaching your carbon filter to your cooltube as you said you were venting outside an the last cheese i had was very smelly,i have not done swiss cheese so cannot really say on the smell,
also you may be better off just using your extractoin fan to pull air into your tent to create negative pressure this will stop smells leaking out an it will constantly pull fresh air in an will save a few pence on leccy bill just use oscilating fan to circulate the incomming air just a thought plus rep on your grow looks good

thank you very much both for the suggestion and the rep buddy :) i dont have a carbon filter, i only extract air with a rvk fan through the cooltube because we have REALLY high temps. here :/ they are going up to 46C and the fan was my last hope and did the job. sometimes i need to turn on the A/C too. if i was blowing air in the temp. will go like 50C. i hope i was living in a cold country :) about the smell i dont think it will be a problem since i dont live in appartment and the closest house to me is about 20-30 meters. i think that 3 plants will not be a problem in a neighborhood. what is your opinion on this? i may be wrong. enlighten me mate :) and thanks again

I wish I could try it before I grew it. There is nothing but schwag around here.
I am definitely getting Nirvana's Northern Lights. I have smoked that plenty of times,
and never been disappointed. The second strain I am getting is still undecided. It'll
be from Nirvana more than likely. I have it boiled down to a choice of like 5 strains,
and Swiss Cheese is one of them. Ice, AK 48, Aurora Indica and WW are the others.

if you seek flavour and smell i would definitely go for cheese or bubblicious . the second one is perfect if you score a phenotype but the cheese i think is perfect anyway. when i smoked it i said F**k this is oldschool and i saw that the description on nirvanas page verified my thought :) the yield also seems good. if you wait 2 months i will give a full report on it :)

on the cooltube be sure to push the air on through the tube as the hot air you pull through your cooltube fan will drastically reduce it shelf life an possible cause the fan to overheat so if you have it pulling the hot air switch to the other side of the cooltube so it pushes air out these fans work better using cool air to keep them cool,
try an keep the cool air to the lower half of your tent do not have any oscilating fans pointing upwards to the top of the tent as this will cause the warm air to mix with your cool air on the bottom it will cause humidity to rise an your temps to rise also

which.jpgsorry for crap drawing just did it on paint quick so you see what i am saying sorry if you already had it like this

I do like that old school weed flavor. Stuff from like 20+ years ago. Even 15 years ago.
The stuff floating around here now is pathetic at best.

For like 2 months there was some decent stuff going around. It reminded me of Big Bud.
Looked good, smelled good, tasted decent, large buds, but the high was only average.
For $150 an oz I couldn't complain.

I'll have a report on something in about 2-3 months.

no you said it very well . i have the fan sucking from the tube. you are right it would be better for the fan to blow through the tube instead of sucking but i dont have cool air somewhere that i can pull from the fan and blow it in through the tube. :/ is too hot in here. thank you for the drawing also man. also i would appreciate your opinion on the smell thing :)

Yeah, that stuff just tastes so good! My fiancee hates it, says "it makes the whole house stink like feet." So I said, "yeah, that's why I know it's so good!"

THEY ARE ALL LADIES pistils on all plants :) !!!!!!!! i would like to inform you that i made 300 ml of colloidal silver and sprayed the lower branches of one of my 3 plants and i will continue to spray it untill i see its balls. anyone who dont know what im talking about search google: colloidal silver feminised seeds. Btw this is my first attempt for feminised seeds, anyone who did it before throw some opinions!

Well, I can't say its a rip-off, but if you can do it yourself, why the hell not?
it is a rip off :) think of the price of 3 g. weed how many seeds are inside? consider the stable genetics and the colloidal silver added(i made it for 4 euros in 1 night) that the seed bank provides. and compare if its worth up to 80 euros for 5 beans :/ rip-off :P

Yeah, I get what you're saying. They provide some nice DNA though, that otherwise we wouldn't get. Its good for newbies like me that want to learn how to ge started. Then hopefully we grow up like you and start creating our own seeds and own strains. That's what sounds awesome to me down the road. Find two breeds I like, cross 'em, and see what comes out the other end.

The real trick is in creating STABLE feminised seeds, that only comes with practise and many rounds of flowered out seeds....
