I just ordered seeds for the very first time today! I ordered Swiss Cheese and Northern Lights from Nirvana. I am going for quick flowering periods, low odour, short plant height and good to great yileds. Has anyone here had any experience with these strains?? :bigjoint: Mucho~ appreciated for any info!

Nirvanas beans have been good for me. I currently have 2 very lush NL girls with one seedling,,,,NL12-19.jpg
One is being raised with Nirvanas ultimate grow tabs, the other is on Bio Bizz.....the tabs were slightly ahead till I juiced up the BB...the one on the left is BB

Hey thanks for showing me my genetics that are on the way! Very much appreciated, exactly what I was looking for. Wow those big broad fans look dark and glowing with health, I can't wait, gonna raise em' up, select the best for cloning and away we go! thanks again, I also have swiss cheese.

I grew Nirvana Northern Lights outdoors this summer. It was so-so. Very easy to grow and didn't need much nutes. Germed two beans, but one ended up getting eaten by animals shortly after moving them outside. The surviving plant was definitely low odor. Actually more like zero odor. I topped it and also did a little LST since it was a little on the leggy side. I don't know if I'd ever grow it again unless I absolutely needed a low odor strain. Although from what I understand, Nirvana isn't exactly known for there genetic stability so it's quite possible that there are several phenos out there with only some of them being low odor. I germed the other 3 beans a few months later for an indoor grow and they sprouted no problems, but I decided to abort that grow after a couple weeks due to personal reasons. The yield wasn't all that great considering the size of that plant. I thought I was going to end up with much more. Although I did harvest a little earlier than I had planned due to mold.

BAD genetics ordinary in every way i bet 80% of your beans dont pop an of the other 20% they have massive hermie issues

pay cheap get cheap
I wish you would of bet with me this past summer.
10 NL and 5 Swiss Cheese.
All popped. No hermies.
4 of the NL were monsters.Over a pound each.But I did veg them indoors for about 2 months before putting em out in june.

thanks for the info and the pics. Was hoping for some more indoor experience with the nirvana NL though.

That may be your opinion, but I've had nothing but positive results from the Nirvana gear (Snow White and Jock Horror) that I tried. All seeds germed. The Snow white were fem seeds with no hermie issues. I still keep a clone of my favorite pheno from that going. The Jock is killer smoke, but it comes with a 12+ week flowering period.

yeah, I've read some good reviews of their genetics. The swiss cheese is supposed to be killer, can't wait. I understand I'm not paying 100"s for 5 seeds like some of you guys out there but I've never ordered before and figured Nirvana'd be a great place to start. There selection is small though, I would have preffered a #5 of the NL and I wanted a pure Jack but I will settle for my new strains and see what happens :leaf: Other strains will wait a little while...not too long ;)

I've grown out the NL a couple of time and it was some fairly good smoke.

Never grown out the SC before.

I have grown out several of Nirvana's strains, most were really good while a couple were pretty average.

i havent tried the swiss cheese but the northern lights can be a pretty squat plant but it grows like a christmas tree.
pretty easy to keep the smell under control too.

I did swiss cheese when nirvana still called it swiss miss. Put some out guerilla style and it was good smoke, didn't yield as well as it should because shitty midwest weather but was nice. I ended up finding like five beans in a few pounds of bud and one of those seeds had an unbelievably great tasting orange pheno from the skunk genetics. Not sure if the plant hermed out or random pollen hit it.
