Hi yall.
Ive been doing a little research on other strains, because, as I suspected, I want to grow photos, instead of autos. But I dont have any photo seeds, except whatever I might be able to find from a bag. Ive found 3 strains that pique my interest. Im wondering if any of yall have grown, or know anyone who has grown Kali Mist, Durbin Poison, or Amnesia Haze. Of these 3, Amnesia Haze is the only one Ive ever heard of.
Here is a description of them from SeedFinder:
Kali Mist
Indoor clone grow time: 1-5 days
Indoor flowering period: 70-90 days
Indoor yield: 300-500 g/m²
Harvest Date Outdoor: middle - end of November
Arguably the top sativa strain available today. With 90% sativa genetices, Kali Mist grows into tall, running, classically sativa plants with very few leaves. This strain produces dense clusters of full fluffy buds, producing much higher yields than you would expect. The plant structure and few leaves allow the light to pass all the way to lower branches, allowing bottom buds to develop fully. When planted outside early in the year this plant can grow very tall. Expect spiraling flowers with a high resin content and a delightfully spicy scent.
Kali Mist is often the choice of experts for their own stash grows. Also, particularly women seem to like this strain, next to the sheer pleasure of smoking it, we received several reports that it works great against menstrual cramps.
We are proud to announce that Kali Mist was improved in 2000 to produce bigger yields. In Spain it proved to be very mold resistent, even outside during bad weather. This strain has flavor and subtle cerebral effect that gave it a Cannabis Cup first prize in 1995 (Hydro Cup) and again (with this new and improved version) in 2000 (Seed Company Sativa Cup)! Without a doubt the choice for connoisseur stash. Gives a very strong, clear and energizing High.
Durban Poison
Imported from South Africa, produced in Holland. Exclusively inbred, never hybridized, 100% Sativa. Large long budleaves, buds are also large and long with lots of resin. A sweet licorice or anise flavour. "Up" high similar to Thai. High yields. Well suited for outcrossing with late bloomers to produce earlier flowering. Also does very well under artificial light. A very popular variety.
THC: 8.6%
flowering period: 8 - 9 weeks
harvest time outdoor: end of Sept.
Amnesia Haze
After the haze genetics came to Holland and several hybrids were made, an American expat would later combine one of these hybrids with a male derived from old school haze seeds creating the Amnesia Haze. We felt our collection of marijuana seeds would not be complete without one of the best hazes to ever be smoked, so we got a hold of some Amnesia and made feminised seeds.
Our Amnesia haze is a well maintained plant growing just over a metre tall, to about 1.2m. She can be grown outdoors but will require hot weather like Australia, North Africa and California, however may need to be grown in a greenhouse due to her long flower period.
Amnesia haze is one of our best yielding cannabis strains, producing 70-80 g per plant with up to 600g per metre squared under a 600w light. She can produce big outside, with full sun, reaching as much as 200g per plant. However extra care should be taken outdoors as this is a sensitive plant, so problems with weather, bugs or irrigation will harm your final harvest.
The only down side with Amnesia haze is the long flower time required of 12 weeks. Although this is high enough to make most commercial growers run for the hills, true cannabis connoisseurs will find the wait more than worth it. Amnesia haze is suitable for both hydro and soil grows, sea/screen of green too.
So after 4 months of growing, 2 weeks of drying and curing and your finally ready to smoke the Amnesia haze that has taken you so long to grow. After your 1st joint or bong we are certain you will be more than satisfied with the smoke after waiting such a long time. Our Amnesia Haze really is one of the best cannabis strains in our entire stock.
Every hit comes with a truly psychedelic head high, likely to send any user straight into the astrosphere. The flavour is fresh and fruity like you expect from a haze which only makes the smoke so much more enjoyable. Smokers are warned this is a strong smoke and, as the name suggests, users can often turn their brains off completely after a session.ÿ
Type: Sativa: 80%; Indica: 20%
Yield: 70-80 grams
Harvest month: October
Height of the plant: 100-120 cm
Genetic background: Amnesia Haze
Effect: Psychedelic high
Cannabinoid content: Extremely high
Flowering time 12 weeks
The Kali Mist interests me because it "gives a very strong, clear and energizing High". This seems to me the pinnacle of what Im looking for. Energizing High. Yes, please. I also like the reports of high yields. Now that I have my first grow out of the way and I "know" beyond a shadow of a doubt I can get a harvest, yield and quality will be the mainstays of my grows from now on, that and learning more and more.
The Durban Poison interests me because of the flavor. Anise or Black Licorice. Yum! Yum! I love that flavor so much. lol I also like the high yield reports and resinous buds. The "up" high is interesting too, if a little vague. What concerns me, and its likely no cause for concern, is the 8.6% THC. Isnt that pretty low? Maybe I just dont understand how THC percentages work in regards to the potency of a strain. Anybody wish to correct me?
Finally, the Amnesia Haze spoke to me too when I hunting for a new girl. The long flowering time of the strain makes the impatience in me curl up my nose, but words like "psychedelic head high" and "turn brain off completely after a session", make me stand up and pay attention.
What do yall think of these strains? I really need mas seeds. I only have 4 autos. Which is fine (for now) because Ill only grow one or two plants at a time, but what if one or more fail to germinate? My options become VERY limited then.
