So I'm planning on starting my own grow and I'm having a hard time chosing the strains. I want to get 3 strains, I probably won't grow all 3 in the very first grow but it's kind of a pain in the a$$ to get seeds here so I'll order 3 and be done for a while...

The strains I'm considering are:
Sensi's skunk #1 (or super skunk)
Nirvana's white rhino
Nirvana's bubblelicious

Any thoughts??

I would say yes.

Just whatever you do, grow strains worth growing. Good genetics, good seeds, it's a key and makes plenty of difference.

Better yet try one of the strains off the link at the bottom of the page and I doubt you'll be disappointed with the results, unless you royally screw things up which is doubtful with a resource such as this website.

Good luck with your grow mate.

My first grow was AK47 smile.gif

I was considering AK47 at first, but it's a little to expensive for me right now. But who knows, maybe I manage to save some more money...

thanks for the quick reply! thumbsup.gif

sounds good to me
white rhino particularly good begginer

skunk no 1 is a very easy plant to grow if you are new to growing good choice there.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm reading about growing for years now, was going to move to my own apartment a few years back but then I decided to build a house so all my growing plans were delayed once again... Now the house is almost ready but I'm broke hahahah. So now I gotta save some money, build a nice growdrobe and finally get growing...

The problem is that it's kind of hard to buy grow equipment here, if I want a cooltube ou carbon filter I have to get one shipped to me (or build it myself), the same goes for specific nutes, so it can get quite expensive...

Anyway.. I still have a lot of planning to do!

Hey rafa420,

Those sound good, and you may want to consider auto flowering man. Auto flowering is excellent for beginners and advanced for fast crop.

Good luck mate.

grow a tidy strain mate forget autoflowers they will cost you much more in electric and you will get a much smaller yeild so whats the point.and only finish a couple of weeks before a normal grow where you could double your yeild maybe treble depending what type of set up you got.
rafa420
I'll just go with normal strains, I've read a few things about autoflowering and to be honest I don't really see an advantage..
I get that they can be faster, but at the cost of a smaller yeild?? So what's the point anyway?? I guess I'll stick to the 3 I mentioned above..

all the best.. spliff.gif

I've only done the White Rhino off your 3 choices and it's very good. Nivana is what i practiced on also..I've done there White Widow,White Rhino,Ak48,B-52 and Ice,which was the worst of them all none germed. For best it's a 3 way tie,between the ak, and both whites would grow any of those again...But I've moved on for now.

Also when you do get a chance do get some of those AK47 seeds you will not be disappointed...
rafa420
Yeah, I was really interested in AK47 from serious seeds (kind of a legend isn't it?), but is kind of expensive so I'll leave it to when I'm more experienced and will stay on the more cheap side for now thumbsup.gif
Snatcher420
Yeah i was the same way...But the seedbay lowered the price to 80 us dollars right before xmas 2008 and i couldn't pass it up. And I'm glad i didn't. Easy to clone and grow. I believe the hype now. Load my dugout 1 hitter half way with it and after the first hit i could feel the high coming on.

Have you seen the mixed pack from greenhouse seeds. The indica H mix looks great. Think its got cheese,trainwreck, lemon skunk, white rhino n white shark. They're coloured too so you would know what u where growing. I would go for that if your on a budget. Take a cut or two as u go. I'm sure there'd be at least one worthy of keeping. People dis greenhouse cos arjans a complete tool but he has some great strains n there quite cheap. You might not get the perfect pheno for each variety but surely one will be nice.

If I'm abble to afford it when I buy my first batch of seeds, I'll order a pack to see it for myself. thumbsup.gif

Seems great, I'll take a look at that. specool.gif

i was going to try the color coded seeds but the breeder packs look to bulky and not very stealthy. Didn't want to chance it.

lol.gif all 3 were my first grows and all from Nirvana, shit hot seeds for the low budget, alot of ppl slate them, but i've never had a problem, their white rhino and bubblicious are in every grow i do now, rhino is extremely hardy and almost impossible to kill or mess up.
