a indaca .short stocky and smells like orenges and has a very nice sativa high.
why i made seeds was it was the first strain i had grew that smells like fruit. and me and my brother loved the high.we never new pot could smell like that.

yea it had that old weed kinda high and the flavor was greet. it was the frostiest plant i had to date .very resin coated buds. the high would be great on a bright day. you could tell it was a good skunk cross.after that they started using a different skunk that gave off colorful buds. like Purple phenoms. and i think the strength of the 2nd skunk to give it color is not as strong as the one they use to use .i guess trying to cash in on the Purple thing.
i am glad i found these seeds i was looking for a good skunk for crossing .and shit i think cali-o would be a good start.to me cali-o looked like a skunk#1.but with that orange flavor and smell.its like a mix of orange and skunk. and its strong too.
this has given me the idea of going through the seeds to find a good male and female.
and using it in some crosses.

Oh, man - my taste buds just sent a message to my brain...hansel said:
I love that taste...
I had nirvana cali-o last year and had both indica and sativa phenos. Almost no stretch on the indica pheno, sativa pheno went something like 2 weeks longer and yielded much better and more sativa high. All plants had same kind of fruity taste, with some variation more citrus bite to more spicy and one more of orange-vanilla-yoghurt.
Would grow and will grow someday just for the taste.

Here's the one I'm growing right now. Sorry the pic is sideways!
And here's her children!
She smells pretty orangey! My fingers smelled like oranges after cloning her for hours!
She roots Super fast and easy

So...what's the dividing line between the new version and the old version? I bought a pack of Nirvana Cali-O about 3 years ago, they've been in the fridge since then.

Hey guys, I smoked some Cali-O the other day for the first time. Some decent outdoor. Nice light green fat chunky buds covered in bright orange hairs with a nice sweet candy orange aroma. But not very strong aroma unfortunately. I was pleasantly surprised. Good tasting potent pot with a nice Sativa buzz and a some Indica body. Very little Indica comedown. I always heard it was an Indica dom strain with weak potency so I stayed away. No idea what seedbank the seeds originally came from but I kept some nice healthy seeds for later. Sad to see it looks like Nirvanas new version is more Indi..... Cheers, Ah.
Nirvana buy seeds from all over the place, they recently bought a kilo or two from reeferman, god knows what packs they will end up in. They call themselves a collective to cover the fact they will sell any old seeds they can get their hands on!
I heard it was the other way around that Reeferman bought them from Nirvana.
I have about as much evidence about that as you do about your statement.
How many Nirvana strains have you grown. None by the looks of you gallery.
If you want to bash, go somewhere else. Nirvana genetics are excellent.
Hi Shifty,
It is still good, but it is different in growth, very indica while the older version is sativa like you said. I swear the sativa made everything appear brighter and more colorful. Watching the Sun rise was a religious experience. he..he.. The buzz reminded me of good Mexican herb back in the mid 70's.
Even though I was dissapointed at first because it was a fat indica, but it is very flavorful with a sweet orange skin/hashy flavor and smell. It has a very good yeild and virtually grows itself. It also has a flavor that reminds me of the Jamaican weed we used to get in the 70's. Don't hesitate to try it.
I guess if you get a strain that you enjoy, make seeds from it or keep a mama.
