Exardeso, Red has said in another thread that they were the same seeds.
I'd show some more pics 3 weeks into flowering but I have an aphid infestation that I'm having a hard time controlling and my plants look like shit.

i'll be watchin your grow Southern! big sativa fan here and was just browsing chimera's current line 2 days ago. im thinking about this one - so anxious to see how it goes for ya.

Hello everyone

I will agree this is not what i was thinking when i read the name sweetest sativa but I am not unhappy with these girls at all . Very uniform growth and structure very vigorous and healthy .

Ok after stressing them alittle bit to get them to show sex I have found 4 wonderful females and 8 males . All males were culled and all females were cloned and transplanted into 2 gal pots.
My mix is new just trying to keep this simple
1.5 bags Happy frog @3cubic foot
1 bag Fox farm Planting mix @1 cubic foot
5 gal of perilite
For the trans plant I added 1 tbsp peaceof mind flower 5-8-4 for each gal of soil watered in with 6.3 ph water and some superthive 1 cap full to a gal .

This has turned out to be alittle hot and you will see the slight curl on some of the leaves but i dont think it will hurt them too bad.

(these were transplanted into a flower mix to see there reaction to it. I would usually keep using the POM 5-5-5 for veg but with a new mix it is easier to dial them in veg and train them than to try and fix a problem in flower .)

Still have alittle ways to go before flowering but not much longer

well I kinda mess this thread up as far as keeping up with my part of posting a week by week grow but it could not be helped (sorry ,Dutch Grown and chimera )
but now that things have relaxed a bit and i have time to post alittle here and there i had to put up some pics of this wonderful strain Sweetest sativia and the 4 girls i got from these beans . 3 out of the 4 are considered outstanding and the other was not bad just kinda ho humm. The others, well I have smoked some nice strains over the years and would put all three of these pheno's in my top 5 for sure .

A quick rundown of the flower room 2x 600hps air cooled with a 465 cfm fan through six inch day star hoods . The lights covered a 5x4 area giving me 60 wpsqf. Temps were perfect this time high of 78 low of 60 ,humidity average of 33% ( allways had humidity problems cant get them high enough ).
Flower mix was 1 bag fox farms planting mix ,1.5 bags happy frog . 5 gal perilite , 2 cups blood meal 2cups bone meal 1 cup lime . 1 cup plant sucess.1med bag worm castings . Watered with phd water 6.3.
The plants were rooted into a 2 gal container and trans planted into a 5 gal container were they lived a happy life.

This one i wont spend to much time on, growth was outstanding big thick stems and buds . She flowered for 65days and looked fantastic frosty but has no real smell or taste. The smoke report to come later

bare with me i am not the most organized person in the world and am having to find the pic's on disk due to having computer problems

more to come !!!!!!!

This girl was a skunk hands down growth and buds were just like the sweet skunk i have done before with a slight berry smell. She trippled in size when she streched and packed on flowers with low leaf to calix ratio . No complaints on this one She was my fav she would reach out and hugg ya and leave her sticky sweet smell all over you .

This girl was really different can you say fox tail . She only doubled in the stretch . At first I thought oops i over dosed her with nitrogen look at the curl in those leaves . After giving out a few cuts to friends and seeing there grows i have found that the curl is a trait in this plant she is just going to curl her leaves . She has a very high leaf to calix ratio and a hashy berry smell to her in flower . I think this is what the breeder was looking for in this strain fast growth and sativa look with blueberry under tones and a pleasure to grow .

this girl was the keeper she was thick stemed and rock hard nuggs!

SouthernSmoker · 02-24-2008, 03:41 AM

ok from what i can remember of her this strain was easy to grow and even better to smoke .
pheno 4 was the keeper she was roock hard nuggs and berry smell !!

smoke report well not real good at this but here goes nothing

all the phenos high was real simalar . #4 had a berry taste with candy undertones . All of them would make you feel like your head was a balloon on a string and your feet felt like walking on the moon .very disconecting and not funtional at all just out there mentaly. Perfect for having to watch that chic flick with your girlfriend . You know you are there but not really !!!LOL
