I purchased my seeds from Nick at Dutch-Seeds and will start off by saying that I will definetly grow this strain again. All seeds germinated but due to space I selected the best 6 to keep. All plants looked the same with extreme lateral branch growth. After veging for 4 weeks they started showing s ...continued

I've grown 2 Mango's of Nirvana in 2003. It looks like Nirvana has changed the name from Mango to Papaya.
I had a germination rate of 80% and grew the plants under the sun.
So after the germination I had to hope that the sun reaches Germany and let my Mango's grow.
Firt they grew very nice and we

This weed doesn't taste or smell like anything in our area which makes it quite unique!
Even when cured it still smells really sweet and gets you fucked up after about 4-5 hits (everybody so far...).
I tested it on some unsuspecting friends and they couldn't believe how powerful it was.
So...to m

This was a very easy plant to grow. I germed 5 seeds; 2 survived, 1 shorter male was removed and disposed of (I regret this now!).

The female was much more vigorous; growth in veg was phenomenal, it literally grew before my eyes...

Flowered 4 weeks after germination as I was eager to see the

These plants where grown using only organics. They were vegged until they reached 18" tall, then I switched to 12/12. Both of the plants stayed under 3 feet tall. I recieved two different phenos. in this pack of seeds. One which finished in 57 days and had a really great fruity smell to it. Another ...continued

SI RatingNot Listed Vintage: January, 2004

Veg: Well this plant was a big fuzz with a lot of problems. Under the veg. period there were a lot of problems with MG, N etc. deficiency. While vegging this plant I discovered that the pH should be low (for organic soil) by low I mean 5.5 to 6 (more like hydro) - when this pH was hit, the plant grew well and after 35 day it was ready to set to flower.

Flower: Here we have something explosive! After 3 days of 12/12 (YES it's true!) the first sign of resin showed on my plant and I started counting days of flower. The flowering period did go well, and there was no special 'blooming-booms' as the flowers developed nice all the way. After 7.25 week (not 8 as Nirvana recommend) the plant is ripe and ready to harvest, this was done without any trimming - as I believe the best drying results is with a full leaf matter.

Taste, smell and potential, effect: The taste is nothing to write about (the plant it not cured yet!!); there was only a slight taste of something sweet, I think it is good, not bad. For smell, this plant is pretty low odor - sometimes there was a small whiff of plum. When it comes to potential and effect - the plant took me by surprise as I have figured that with no taste and 'thought hurt' the plant must have been weak (I did see all the trichomes, but...) - the surprise was that after 5 minutes I could notice a small visual disorder and a feeling of hot water running trough my body, 5 minutes after that my mind started to shine like a summers day – stress from work left me, and my mouth got active. Overall effect – this plant is a true worry-remover; Or as my wife said “This strain brings out the subconscious hippie…”

Final rating: This plants carries some trouble, but if u have the time, it's worth it

Bloom Wattage Used260w to 400w
Average Plant Height80
Plants per Sq. Foot9.00
Average Yield per Plant6.63
Pruning or Plant StyleBush
Fertilization MethodOrganically fed

Stealth cabin 160 Cm tall and a footprint that is 56X56 with 400 Watt Son-T GrowLux for light, due to bad ventilation (One pulling top mounted) the temperature rises to 35C, anyway I grow some good smoke there. I have gone from Chemical fertilizing to pure ecology organic systems (Only using the HPS is non-eco), actually I can see, and taste, it on the plants as they look and smell more healthy. For earth I use a 50/50 mix of worm castings lighten up with Leca (Made about 5 kilometers from where I live)The mix is enriched with a mix of chicken and sea-bird manure (Animix) and blended ascophyllum nodosum seaweed (Kelp) harvested from the local beach. As an addendum I use tea from the same seaweed every 3 day when plants are young, ecology fertilizer (Consist of micro-organisms to break down enrichment and humus to make soil more light) every week. When it’s time to flower, I brew tea from bone-powder (Phosphor enrichment) make from ecology cattle. Besides my cabin I’m growing outside as well (In the summer)

Ferts + Supplies: I used bog's method of growing, 2 weeks seedling stage + 3 weeks veg stage + harvest at around 74 days flower.

Papaya can mature either very fast, or in the case with this plant, very slow. One of my male papaya plants busted a pollen sack at only 4 weeks veg. Be very careful

Nirvana Papaya (Mango) is a good strain...
It's too easy for a new grower like me ...
But I think that it's also appreciated by the "old school" peoples.
She made big, dense buds. Typicial indica growth pattern.
Good for topping on the 4th internode.
Effects are quietly good.... A nice balanced

2 plants grown outdoors in a greenhouse with scrog tech. These plants were alot of fun to grow. Not a whole lot of trouble at all.

They loved the organic ferts especially the taller lankier one of the two. The taller one of the 2 finished about 2 weeks after the shorter one. I am assuming i
