Flying dutchman Fuma Con Dios, Swazi-Safari, Thai-Tanic and Nirvana White Widow

Ralphie · #1 09-05-2007, 09:34 AM

This journal I will be doing from the very start to finish unlike my last..

I ordered the seeds from drchronic.com..

I have the Flying Dutchmen "Mixed sativa divas" 12 pack which consists of:

4 seeds Swazi Safari(F1 "special cross" haze hybrid mostly sativa),
4 seeds Thai-Tanic (F1 hybrid of chocolate thai/skunk mostly sativa),
4 seeds Fuma Con Dios (F1 haze/skunk hybrid mostly sativa),
10 seeds Nirvana White Widow (Doesnt need much explaining, indica/sativa),

I ordered all of these from drchronic.com, paid yesterday and they shipped today.. Should have it by Monday (I hope)..

I will be updating this when it is time for germination everyone is welcome to post.. This should be a fun grow trying these different strains

I will germinate 11 out of 22 for this grow, and the second 11 will be saved for a later date

All 22 seeds arrived and 17 are now in germination.. I was going to grow only 11 but I winded up dropping a couple more on the wet towel by mistake.. Now all thats left is 5 white widows.. Everything else has been germing since early yesterday morning.. I ordered from drchronic and it came to mid us in 6 days from day of payment. ill be posting pics of plants shortly

Ok.. so far 6 seeds are germd and in soil.. 4 of the white widows and 2 of the flying dutchmen seeds.. The flying dutchmen seeds were extremley small, is this because sativa seeds are smaller?

Ok, well I currently am left with 3 white widows and 3 sativas from flying dutchmen (i'm not sure which).. im being very experimental with these, since i also have 10 master kush that are about to go into germination, currently i am heavily LSTing one of widows, and topping another one, i also put one of the sativas into flowering only 2 days into veg, to see what happens and clear up what people say about early vegging from seed.. i also have one sativa and one white widow which im lightly lsting(plus giving a foliar feed and strictly organic nutes which currently consists of foxfarm big bloom and oceans forest soil). the rest of the plants are getting non organic nutes

I am doing different things to all of them and giving them different nutrients (organic vs. chemical)

This grow is mostly an experiment so I know what methods i prefer for future grows

I will also be flowering out the males and crossing them for future seeds and different types of bud as well as taking clones of the females

Once I post pics, I'll explain what im giving to each

DAY 14 VEG

How far is the light?

Ralphie · #8 10-05-2007, 02:45 PM

right now its about 14 inches away.. however its in a completley enclosed highly reflective ventilated area.. stretching does not seem to be a problem.. they are under 8 high 23w(100w) daylight CFLs.. i found after my last grows that vegging them under a metal halide doesnt make much of a difference(atleast none that i noticed).. ill be putting them under HPS for bloom

Ralphie · #9 10-11-2007, 07:19 AM

they look great all have since doubled in size.. ill take some pics tonight

Ralphie · #10 10-14-2007, 09:27 PM

ok first pics are of 2 plants which ive just put in flowering yesterday, since ive taken these pics I've also put one other in flowering, which I will post pics of on my next entry

The larger (full flowering plant in some of the pics are posted in another journal which you can find in my sig)

on the other 2 pics, the one in the back in the smaller orange pot is a flying dutchmen sativa diva (either haze or thai hybrid), i have started giving it full strength nutes (open sesame, big bloom, tiger bloom, superthrive), for the past 2 waterings, it seems to be taking it well

the other plant in the larger green pot in the front is a nirvana white widow, which has been growing pretty great, eventhough i slightly overwatered it yesterday and got some nutes on the lower leaves.. i have also been giving it foxfarm full strength nutes

the plant hanging from the lights on the left is a white widow which i experimentally flowered from seed, im pretty sure its a male, ill wait a couple more days before i toss it, i wont be trying flowering from seed again
