Is the Durban Poison from Nirvana seeds?

Old school African strain mate. And its from Dutch Passion, she was the one I was most excited about. A strain I've wanted to do since I first saw it when I was 16.
She was the runt out of all 3 seeds and was slow to get going, but I'm happy to say that she is now the dominant out of all 3 strains and is the healthiest! I wouldn't be too bothered if the other 2 strains died (harsh lol)!
They are in their second day of 12/12 and I'm wondering whether to keep them growing natural or SCROG them. A DWC plant at this stage would be impossible to bend into shape, but these have such bendy branches that I will be able to train them.
It would be nice to see 3 big trees in the tent, but I think I will yield more from a SCROG.

Whats your plans with your plants mate? I've only seen you do Autos, so will be interesting what training techniques you will be using, if any.

They are looking alright, some yellowing on the bottom leaves, but not too worried! It just seems like its taken forever to get to the stage. Admittedly I sort of forgot about them, and remember that training I was doing around the pot? That went out of window! lol so they are a weird shape now!

Just for you Calli, I will post some! :razz: They aren't on the same sleep pattern as me, so may get some tonight if i'm still awake in a hour, or I will get some in the morning if I'm not a lazy twat and stay in bed! lol
If they are drooping because they need watering I shan't bother haha never had this trouble with DWC! Plants are always perky with DWC, but i'm scared to over water in soil and often come back to droopy plants! I need to find the happy medium with soil, but each plant seems to differ!

I would actually say the Hollands Hope has the best growth. But the Durban Poison is still my favourite. All trained differently.
Hollands Hope - Fimmed
Durban Poison - Mainlined
Frisian Dew - Topped

The Hollands Hope will be the first to flower, its doing that thing where all the tops start to go that yellow colour from the middle? Know what a mean? I love it when this happens!!

the thing I like about a sativa is you can flip them early & they will at least triple in size it's like the time after the flip is veg time except you're not paying for 18 hrs of light only 12 I know you're not fond of dirt I'm hoping you'll be pleasantly surprised by the final outcome I'm getting my mind set for my next strain I've found 3 candidates & will make a choice soon I've not had a strapping dwc harvest yet but I'm gonna fix that next grow

Ahh thank you!! :mrgreen:
heeey those are some pretty gals you've got there! They seem to have taken the rough treatment quite well too :P
Though really, now'S the time to watch your watering, they need more in this phase ;)
I love the three training techniques, makes them even more individual! :weed:

And I get why you're thinking of scrog, especially looking at the frisian dew - the way she's putting out those top leaves makes her look like she's wanting to stretch lots if given the opportunity haha. But maybe it's a tad late for a for a full reshaping, as you've already flipped? You see, it takes a few days for the plant to reorientate her growth - as in secondary branches that are then exposed to light from what used to be the side. So that would be happening instead of stretch, leaving those side buds relatively small. So personally, I'd lean toward some generous LST instead, tying those branches down a bit, but leaving them freestanding... OR switch back to veg and give them another week or so to get themselves sorted :bigjoint:

I'm going to turn them early due to the pineapple sativa being a tall plant. So we'll see what happens
