This time I decided on Skunk#1 as it’s in most decent strains and it’s always used as a comparison. I also belived that the older a strain, the more that the breeders have a chance to isolate better traits and maximise yield and flavour by years and years of the best genetic selection. So, I [...]

From x2 (feminized) Strawberry Cough seeds, x2 mother plants were grown. Each mother gave the same amount of clones. The clones were rooted in Jiffy7 peat pellets. Some Rhizotonic was added to help early root growth. At 1 week they were transplanted into small pots of coco fiber/pebble (9:1 ratio). They were all fed Hesi Grow [...]

x3 seeds were sown from a packet of Royal Queen Royal Automatic into a damp tray of coco fibre in the glasshouse at 25c. Once hatched the seedlings were thinned to the heal¬thiest plant. After 7 days the plant was transplanted into a large wide shallow plant pot filled with coco fibre and Bio Biz [...]

The BCN Diesel seeds came direct from Kannabia Seeds. The seeds were feminized from a x5 pack. One seed didn’t sprout in coco but the other 4 grew well. The seedlings were repotted into 6 inch pots of coco at 2 weeks old with added Piranha, Voodoo Juice and Rhizotonic. After another 2 weeks the [...]

Jorge’s Diamonds #1 is the result of a conjoint strain project by Dutch Passion and Jorge Cervantes, author of many popular cannabis cultivation books and numerous respective articles in worldwide cannabis magazines. I asked Jorge, how the collaboration with Dutch Passion came about: “I have known Henk personally for more than 10 years and we [...]

look the site Dutch Passion Back then the whole story of Dutch Passion began with a couple of outdoor strains, amongst them Purple Star and Twilight, bred by breeder Henk van Dalen in the seventies and early eighties. Until today, this seed company is known for carrying a wide range of superb outdoor strains, and [...]

This Nepalese Dragon is a great strain. I’ve grown these seeds in the summer 2008 outdoor and it was my first suc¬cessful attempt to get perfectly mature bud in outdoor (in northern Europe). I wanted to try it again in indoor and it was a good choice. The plants stay pretty short (80-90 cm) and [...]

They were grown under a 200W fluro for 30 days. During this time it was clear to see that I was going to have two very different plants. One was an ‘indica’ dom. Shape, while the other was on the sativa side of things. I trimmed the sativa one to see how it handles stress [...]

Undoubtedly a good example of what represents a White strain plant with a big Indica influence, fairly low yields, but strong buzz and meaty, firm bodied buds. Preventive measures must be taken and humidity kept dose to 60% during growth and at the start of flowering, in this way, attacks by the red spider mite, [...]

Skunk genetics are the basis of most current strains and there’s nothing better for virgin growers; she’s an easy plant with a high yield and guaranteed effects. For veterans, this classic strain also merits revisiting. Her Jong buds can be damaged by mould, therefore indoors it’s necessary to control the humidity towards the end of [...]
