New round of Aurora Indica from Nirvana :cool:

Hey all!

I'm back again with another grow log!

Some of you might have noticed my recently started disaster thread with the sick plant?
Sadly it's dead now. I had to chop it. All the leaves were dead and I just didn't feel like fighting for/with it every single day.
Bad soil and a absent mind will do that for you.

So lesson number one (or a humbling reminder to the rest) is; never start a grow if you're absent minded and not 100% invested in it. That will only result in a bad time/bad harvest.

So two days ago I placed a new seed between two sheets of paper towel on to a plate and placed it in my entertainment center (living room) where it's cozy and warm 24/7.
And today, by lunch time, I could see a nice little tap root. So I decided to clean the tent and start this new project.

My setup is;

Secret Jardin DS60 grow tent.
Dual Spectrum 200W CFL.
Semi wide old school reflector.
100mm exhaust fan with carbon filter.

The seed is planted in Plagron Growmix, and I'm planning on feeding it later on with the GHE Organics BioThrive line; Bio Thrive Grow, BioThrive Bloom and BioWorm.
I also have a tub (glass?) of Molasses, a bag of Epsom Salt and a bottle of Neem Oil, for when or if I should need some "muscle" to handle problems, or to boost the budding etc.

Since the last failed stupid attempt on growing wen't to crap I had to use more seeds than I were planning, so I'm kind of running low on seeds as we speak. So I was thinking on buying new ones for the next grow. Or at least plan on.

I'm located in the EU, in a country still acting like its the middle ages, where the state pounds you really hard if you're busted for growing.
So the seed bank needs to be discrete and use stealth shipping. I've used Nirvana Seeds before, and I really love their way of doing thing. But I've also heard that Seedsman is a good source for cheap quality seeds (they also give away loads of freebies if you buy using BTC), which I like.

So please enlighten me with your best choices and why, hope you all will enjoy my log. Thanks for being such an awesome community!

Much love!

Hehe! You're trolling right? :P

If you read the thread you can clearly see;
And today, by lunch time, I could see a nice little tap root. So I decided to clean the tent and start this new project.

In other words; there's not much to take pictures of.

I'll be back with pictures as soon as the little one pops out of the ground. My guess is in a day or two.
So be patient ;)

Peace!

No, I'm not trolling. I'm just kidding. We just love pictures around here. If I offended you, I'm sorry. Didn't mean to.
 
Nah, it's all good man! I didn't get offended. But I thought you were trolling :P kind of hard to see the irony in a post (easier when you're looking at a face).
Anyways.. I feel like I'm doing a decent job when it comes to posting pictures. Nothing fancy, but it gets the job done. So if you're looking for pictures you're at the right place!

I'll be posting 2-3 times a week on average, maybe even more if there's a lot of changes in short period of time. So I suggest you subscribe to this thread if you want to follow me. I sure appreciate it, and am glad for all the input I can get. These plants are so easy to grow, but at the same time so hard to figure out at times.

Much love!

Nirvana is prompt (shipped the same day my card was charged), always in stock (no hemming and hawing), and they do have some specials (if you hit it right), and of course those sublime Amsterdam genetics! You really didn't need to ask did you Cocho?

Still waiting for my Seedsman order. Ordered September 26th same day as my Nirvana order. 7 business days to receive the Nirvana order deserves the AAA rating.

True. I forgot how fast they are. Been a little while since I last ordered. And I remember last time, when I got the delivery.
I believe I spent several minutes trying to figure out how where the seeds were, hehe!
And I like their genetics too. Only had one seed on total that didn't sprout. Or it sprouted, but did't grow any more.

Any suggestions for good strains from Nirvana? I like the hybrids and Indicas. I have nothing against Sativas, they just take way to long to grow, and I really don't have the space for it in this tent :P

The strains I've grown in the past are (that I remember the name of);

Skunk #1 (Indica)
White Widow (Indica)
K-Train (Hybrid, mostly Sativa)

I have also grown a few random strains from a breeder called UFO Seeds or something. They were freebies from a trip to Amsterdam many years ago (if I remember correct).

I'm a big fan of Nirvana. I've had several strains from them and my all time favorite has to be "Blackjack". It is the best tasting weed I ever smoked.
 
Still waiting for my GG#4 Auto seeds from Seedsman along with about 20 other seeds. I haven't tried it, but my son and daughter in-law rave about it. Better put it on your shopping list.

You might like their Master Kush. My wife certainly does along with the Aurora Indica. My last order of 20 seeds consisted of Aurora Indica, White Widow, Amnesia Haze, and Girl Scout Cookies.I am partial to the Sativas having grown their Maui in the past. Of course I have plenty of room out here in the wild wild west. I see Nirvana has changed the name of GG#4 to Original Glue.
 
it is Nirvana's Jack Herrer and Black Domino. The effect? It does the job. Nice relaxing mellow high. But it is the taste it leaves on your lips that stands out.
 
I'm considering a new round of White Widow (always a classic), Original Glue or the Blackjack. I did read some about the Blackjack and it sounds like a nice plant.
I'm going to buy 5 packs of seeds I guess (10 seeds), so I'll be buying two different strains.

How is the Girl Scout Cookies then? I know all the hipsters and celebrities over in the States are smoking it, but I thought it was like vaping. Something "trendsetters" do and nothing more :P but is it good?

Would love to grow some Amnesia Haze. First time I smoked it was in Amsterdam in 2010, and it kicked my ass. I was unable to move from my seat at the coffee shop for 3-4 hours. Just sitting there, watching Dutch TV while all the locals where going about it as if it were a normal Thursday. But from what I've heard, the Amnesia Haze grows crazy tall and takes week upon weeks to finish?

Yes White Widow always makes it into the comfort zone. I didn't grow it this year, but chose instead White Russian a close relative. Nirvana does not sell WR though. It has to be obtained from Serious Seeds. I chose GSC for its high levels of THC. I abhor trendy myself. I met a Dane on a flight from Toronto to NYC who found hipsterhood just as distasteful as you do. The THC made my choice. I have not grown Amnesia Haze before but like all Haze it is sure to be over 6 feet easily. 12 weeks, and up for finish. I have grown Super Silver Haze numerous times in the past, and like its psychoactive effects.

I think you'd be most happy with the White Widow, and the Original Glue.
 
Distaste is a good word for it, yes. I don't have anything against hipsters, and I'm sure it's all fun and in good spirits. But it has just gotten way to damned far at this point. 50 year old men, with man buns, neck tattoos, suspenders on long boards? Are you kidding me? Haha! I almost drove off the road here the other day I was laughing so hard. It's just too hilarious!

White Rhino is good. I've had some of that, which my friend grew. And I believe I had it in a Volcano vaporizer in Amsterdam too. So I know it's good.

And yeah, that was what I expected from the Amnesia Haze. I know there's different phenoms of the Amnesia Haze, but you can't tell which one you've got before you're 3-4 weeks in. And I believe the auto variation of different strains have other physical attributes than the original? Some of them are shorter etc? Anyways.. I believe you're right. Sticking with what I know will work for me would be my best bet.

I actually have a funny story about Super Silver Haze. Maybe I'll tell it one day I have the time to write a short story on here ;)

Anyways.. what I would love to grow would be Tangerine Dream. But then I would have to buy from Barney's Farm, which is expensive, or buy from some other place (claiming to have real Barney's Farm seeds), and I don't trust that stuff. Heard some edgy stories about people getting scammed with second grade seeds while paying 50-100 for the supreme stuff. But that is some of the tastiest bud I've ever had. Good high and awesome taste. So good in fact, that I smuggled some through the customs on the airport just to bring some with me back home. So good!

It's alive! :D

Today when I woke up I could see a little tiny green and purple thingy poking above the ground.

The conditions inside the tent are promising this far. I don't really need to do anything. The day starts of (when the light turns on) at about 19C (66F), high 60s.
And it goes all the way up to 30C (86F) through the day. And the humidity varies between 45-50% to 60-70% depending if it's dry outside or not, and if I'm using the humidifier active or not.

This will also stabilize greatly when I move it over to a larger pot. The soil helps humidify these small tens.

I also have a small humidifier which I let run for a few hours a day. Nothing fancy, but it gets the job done (if need be).

A small update from me. Hopefully she will grow like weed from now on :)

That "thingie" is a goddess!!!! A magnificent seedling. I am about to harvest a Nirvana Aurora Indica in a week or two. I'm growing it in a tiny fking grow box so it's a micro plant, but she is beautiful, and budding vigorously. As soon as I can get the Blue OG cut down and out of the way, I'll take a pic. Welcome back, Cocho!
 
Welcome Back Cocho! Missed seein' ya hear mate.
Mostly just read your first post in the thread, cause I been out of town, but hear's what I can offer up from reading what ya asked up top.

I would stick with Nirvana for seeds, I have gotten great seeds from Seedman, and they are an awesome company, but Nirvana is known for it's stealth, and I have gotten my Seedsman orders confiscated by customs, there stealth is really not very good.

That Molasses is dinomight! I used it my whole grow this time, and along with the earth worm castings and Bat Guano, think it is a huge part of how big and dense this seasons buds got. D.A.A.S. is the one to watch, to learn more about that molasses, but basically, two Tablespoons per gallon, and you can wait till the plants are in flower if molasses is hard to come by up there.

I started using Neem oil to water my plants with, and it worked great. I mix about half a table spoon in a gallon of water when they have about 5 sets of leaves, and then a tablespoon per gallon 3-4 weeks later, and every 3-4 weeks after that. I stop once they start flowering, to keep the flavor from getting in the buds. I had a bad aphid infestation in my tomato plants all season, and they were one foot away from the pot, gave the pot neem, but not the tomatoes. Pot was almost completely bug free. Think you might even use less neem doing it that way.

Good luck with your grow!

I am very certain that I have had another order hijacked by customs. It should have been here days ago. I have notified Seedsman, and received the expected reply that I have to wait 25 business days for a resend. At least this time I paid the extra for discreet stealth shipping. Unfortunately my CMH is cooking away in the basement on some clones awaiting the ordered GG#4 Auto seeds. This bullshit is costing me money.
