Choosing the Strains & Germinating the Seeds

I still had a bunch of seeds from great strains left from my previous Dutch Attic Grow-op. Most of them I know and have already grown before. But the 'Sharksbreath' and the 'Purple Wreck' are new to me.

All come from DNA Genetics (am almost ashamed to admit that here), but due to some good connections, I kinda have easy (read free) access to DNA Seeds, so that makes the choice a whole lot easier of course.

Personally I can smoke Silver Bubble all day, but the L.A. and the OG18 are big hitters and gorgeous plants. Especially the OG18 is an amazing plant with white hard big buds and a great sour smell and taste.

(Not to trump my own horn, but B-Real from Cypress Hill was a huge fan of my OG18! Below I've added a picture of my final indoor OG18 Grow.)

The 5 strains I went with are:

LA Woman

OG18

Purple Wreck

Sharksbreath

Silver Bubble

Early April I started germinating all the seeds. Since I don't have any growing equipment here I had to make my own propagators from 1 white and 1 clear drink cup that I taped on top of each other with a drainage hole in the bottom and some air holes in the top cup. For light I just used the sunlight in the windowsill. That worked better than expected actually and they sprouted like good seeds should. From 25 germinated seeds I eventually kept the 18 strongest looking plants. (4 died and 3 just don't want to grow)

The plants are being fed, 'GHE One Part - Total Grow', every 3 days now before they go outside in the soil mix that I will make.

And if i had free access to it, i would for sure take them too :D

You would be un excelent tester for the Green House!The strains would be at there best for sure! :Dhttp://www.strainhun...-testers-rules/Do you still grow indoor or will grow again in the new place?Take care

Growing indoor in Austria as a non Austrian is way too dangerous! Don't want my permit to be revoked :)

So to answer your question, no, it has to stay at doing some outdoor growing in the summertime and for the rest try all my contacts every single week, over and over again, to get something to smoke at least. (And you would not even buy this crap they have here in the worst Dutch Coffeeshop)

About us

Strain Hunters is a series of documentaries aimed at informing the general public about the quest for the preservation of the cannabis plant in the form of particularly vulnerable landraces originating in the poorest areas of the planet.

Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.
