I can't see it. Is s/he still alive to get a good closeup? What strain?

in the picture of the 3 plants it is the short bushiest one. not the one with 3 colas but the other short one. i harvested it last summer. when i began to see the pollen sacks i pinched them off but as the buds grew i couldnt find the sacks so i isolated it and grew it out. the funny thing is only 1 small bud seeded itself but it had 30 seeds. i grew them out and every seed i germed turned female, i guess feminised seeds. it is bag seed. that was my first grow, on my grow now the buds are getting a little better from this strain.:peace:

Nirvana - New Purple Power! First and last time I tried that breeder. The 'high' was a weak buzz followed bya headache. Same reaction to all who smoked her.

No way!
Its a copy using inferior genetics.

Its said that Jack Herer come about when Arjan - Shanti left for the GH Arjan left his Recipe book behind and hence SSH-Jack herer
in SSH-Jack herer they used NL#5/Skunk XHaze
Nirvanas will be their NL/Sk x Haze it grows no were near either more haze like
Probably 1 of the worst Ive grown. Worst being KC36 sativa pheno

The Flying Dutchmans Royal Orange is probably the Best Cali Orange strain

The worst seed companies that I heard was Lowlife and K.C. Brains. Most of the seeds don't sprout and if they do, the majority of them are hermies and males.

mastakoosh told you he had an indica hermie, you had nothing to say

No one has said anything about Super Skunk from Amesterdam Marijuana Seeds Bank.. this seems like the perfect place to ask: Good/Bad/Indifferent?

That is by far my favourite smoke for after work or just relaxing.

I'm still undecided on what sativa I'm most inclined to grow..

If your plants die on you, it's not the breeders fault; get better at what you do. If you don't want hermies, stick to indicas. Since when does a bad experience with a strain lie solely on the shoulders of the breeders? A lot of the posts in this thread are just ridiculous. There will always be plants, even from a pack (or two) of crazy expensive seeds, that won't make the cut. Every plant isn't going to be elite.

If you don't want hermies switch to a waining Light period.
This light period is one where you gradually dial back the light cycle one hour at a time for a week for each hour. This process takes 5 weeks. After you reach the 12/12 is when you start counting your flowering time.

It also works well with Indicas, because you will see pre flowers with in the waining light cycle... (it also makes your buds slightly bigger with indicas)
DJ Short alludes to it in His book, Cultivating Exceptional Cannabis. The reason behind this is because you can not expect a Sub-equatorial strain to switch to 12-12 overnight.The region where they come from doesn't do that and neither should the grower. The Light cycle is genetically programmed into the plant. Any deviation from that will result in Hermies.
The Object is to try and duplicate nature.

Growing sativas isn't hard, it's just time consuming.

Ive been growing sativas like nevilles haze and other mostly sativa hybrids for years and ive never seen a hermie from a switch to twelve twelve so your last sentence that I quoted here is false. though i do agree the more like nature you make it ,the better. you can still never even come close to nature, inside, no matter how hard you try.

I've been growing Cannabis for around 30 years.... Suit yourself bro. I know that with many Sativas I have experianced Hermies, especially Pure Sativas...
one thing I did notice is that you said Sativa hybrids. Which would mean at some point there was indica intorduced to combat hermie traits.
The Waining Light period is a way around hermie traits in Pure Sativas.

well one other exception with me is my pure sativas i always start on 12/12 from sprout. ive seen alot more hermies in indicas then i have with sativas so indicas don't breed out hermie traits by any means, thats just ridiculous to even imply that. 30 yrs of growing doesn't mean you do it well. simple mistakes you may not even know you made are more likely your cause for hermies than anything to do with the light cycle ( with the major exception of light leaks during the dark period). some strains indica or sativa are more prone to hermie with even the slightest stress.and this isn't my first grow either BRO, ive been doing this long enough to have approx. a hundred harvest under my belt at this point. so yes i think i will suit myself thank you. if i had listened to most of the nonsense passed of as fact through declarative statements by people who have read a few High times and not much else i wouldn't have even passed the germination stage by now. thats a generalization not a knock at you

ok evryones arguing way to much! sativas and indicas both produce hermies...stress is the factor, to the guy who said all his died....well then you dont know how to grow...some of these strains may have marginal genes due to them being fairly new crosses.....it takes years to make a strain stable. 30 years of growing is a long time im sure hes got any bugs worked out. just because some of us dont agree dosent mean any of us are the one and true great master grower...i have grown a good many of these strains without any problems check ec and ph light issues water schedule not all plants are created equal. i knowa guy who stressed out feminised seeds so bad that most where hermie... i know idiot right! but yea lets play nice and try to figure these things out together....thats why i dont like to post on here, everyone thinks theyre better...unlesss you have a few trophys on the shelf for growing strains you created then lets not think we are god in this matter.
