I think I've got some Sweet Tooth x Sensi Star seeds somewhere. Might be (STxSS) x Sensi Star - I think I cubed it back to the Sensi Star because it was pretty strong gear. Would have to have a look - let me know me if interested.

None of you have smoked Durban Poison.

Are you saying those Durban Poison seeds that Bedlamatic sent me from South Africa in March 2004 weren't the real deal? Just curious . . . He sent me some Swazi and Malawai Cob, too. Jeeze, I still have some NL#5 x Skunk #1 he sent me in the same package that I never grew . . . close to 20 years old now, those seeds.

The DP came via echo in Durban, and the Malawai from derrayld. All old OG members. There was a fair bit of interaction between the Saffas and Aussies back then, as we were only across the Indian Ocean from each other. Wally Duck and Erliquin were sending their stuff over there and quite a few African seeds made their way over to us.

It's taxing my memory now, but the DP had nice blue hues and reminded me of an indica cross more than an extreme sativa. A deep, relaxing stone, but also clear in the head. Not really psychadelic at all. I know the taste is often described as aniseed or licorice, but to me it was quite sour. I dunno. It was a long time ago. I'd be disappointed to learn after all these years it wasn't real.

I bought Durban Poison back in the mid to late 80’s along with neville’s skunk#1 and early girl. I ended up crossing the skunk to the early girl and just smoked the Durban. Still kicking my own ass over that one. So the Durban Poison I got that was bred by Sam wasn’t the real deal either?

soaking a 2nd seed to plant tonight.
guess i got 3 more try's if it does not pop.

sad prawn i picked it because of the taste described.
never found the old thai taste so figured i would try this.
also was getting bored so figured i would pop a seed.

Use the paper towel method and let them grow tails first. The make a hole in the soil and plant them tail-first with the heads (seed shell) just under the surface. Lightly water and don't let the surface dry out. I germinate in a warm room and wait until mine have popped the surface before placing them under lights. A few things can kill seedlings: damp-off if you bury them too deep in water-logged soil; fungus gnat larvae can sometimes eat the emerging root before it has a chance to grow strong; dessication if you allow the topsoil to dry out before the root has time to emerge and tap into moisture.

Most of the above problems can be avoided if you give the seed a head-start before you plant it. If I know I have fungus gnats, I'll water with a little added eco or neem oil initially to keep them away until the seeding is established.

thank you, we all have our ways to sprout.
i have sprouted many seeds this way before. << bull headed..
soaked another seed sunk in 4 hours.
planted in another cup. bet i cooked 1st seed.
so planted and watered well and set in a cooler spot.
will see how this one goes. i have many other strains going.
so not sweating it to bad. but does suck a bit on store bought seeds.

thanks.. got the seeds yesterday, need some soil/compost and perlite, cant wait to germinate them..

Critical Orange Punch is a feminized photoperiod seed variety, the first Dutch Passion strain based on outstanding Kritikal Bilbo genetics from Spain. The breeding began by crossing elite cuttings of Grandaddy Purps and Orange Bud (Orange Punch). The result was a supreme smoke with great taste but below-average yields. When this was further crossed with an XXL yielding THC rich Critical, the yields were dramatically improved thanks to the Critical growth vigor. Critical Orange Punch has a rich skunky citrus taste and an Afghan-hash aroma along with a long lasting powerful euphoric high. It’s an easy, stable XXL yielding variety to grow. She grows easily under a wide range of nutrient/growing conditions reaching around 1.5m indoors, taking just 7-8 weeks to bloom with commercial yields of rock hard, sticky buds. It’s a perfect, potent and easy feminized seed variety for fast XXL harvests.

[Prawn Connery]

Ooh, little bit stretchy. Have you got it under lights or on the window sill or outside or something?
