Seed type advice needed

[Disco Paul]

Hello all,

I know that there are a number of very comprehesive strain guides about but to be honest, everytime I try to read them I dont get much further than the 'a's.

I would like a recommendation for my first crop. Preferably available as female seeds, not too bothered about a massive yield (Im a fairly moderate smoker...cant get my life together if I toke too much )

I like a crisp energetic high, absolutly not a heavy headed one. I like to kinda buzz about doing things when Im stoned, having a chin wag with Mr Brown from over the street/doing a bit of DIY/examining how well or badly designed things are/how pretty things are etc. Probably a milder high than some skunk vareties too is my preferance.

Does anyone have a particular recomendation?

your looking for a more Sativa than indica

Try gypsy at seed's direct they have quite a few feminised strain's

D.P. Nirvana and Suma seed's all have feminised strain's on offer

OldPink: "your looking for a more Sativa than indica."

Some form of Thai, Juicy fruit, Jack Herer

In general Sativas are head highs and Indicas couchlocks.

I like a stone at the end of the day when I can just chill out and contemplate before crawling to bed. As a relative newcomer having only done bagseed before i went for a skunk and an NL#5 cross.

AFIAK when you harvest also affects the stone, so you could get a modest up aswell as a severe mong inducer, depending on the THC/CBN/CBD ratio (feel free to correct me on this anyone)

If your indoors then look for a sativa/indica cross to give you the high of a sat with the reduced height of an indica. Thats if you havent got 5-6ft of roof space or aren't Scrogging.

Also, if its your 1st grow then something cheap is best.....dont want to throw £60 of sprouts on the compost bin if things mess up eh?!

Sativas generally take longer to flower than indicas (~60 days), so its all a question of balance...

Just dont spend too long thinking about it

Hi cookaloid

You could try Durban Poison as it seems to fit your requirements exactly.

It is relatively easy to grow (although i had a nightmare with the last lot i grew for what ever reason) a pure sativa with a lovely up high that can have you in bits laffin' your ass off or chatting away till your hearts content. It always makes me feel like being cheeky, .

It only takes 8 weeks to flower, and has a relatively good harvest. It has a lovely aroma that isnt as overpwering as skunk strains, and subsequently, odour control isnt too difficult whilst its flowering.

It is a strain that apparently many growers hold in high regard.

I just finished some Thai a few days ago. Took it a little early because I overpollenated and was cutting my losses spacewise, but it was still very resinous and fragrant. The high definitely qualifies for what you're looking for, cookaloid, but it really is a light yielder. Beautiful plant, though, and a wonderfully earthy, lightly floral taste.

I've never had the pleasure of Durban, but it does enjoy a good reputation.

If I was looking for a bargain strain, I would consider KC Brains' Leda Uno. If money was no object, I would be very tempted by The Flying Dutchmen's Swazi Safari (which likely has some Durban in it).

durban most definatly causes a head high, spins your compass!! and takes a few minutes, well a little more than that to regain your bearings

funny that this is my favourite yet i am not growing it?

also being a medi user, it really helps with the pain, best of both worlds

good luck,

bc pete
