Well GM,

Since your not a smoker, and your growing - regardless of WHY your growing, I'd need to know what effects your looking for before I could recommend a good seed bank or distributor. My selection of strains, along with reasoning is as follows:

Durban Poison - Migraine Relief & Stomache Issues, side effects are a very conscious buzz that isn't much of a couch lock (unless its over flowered)
White Widow - Pain Relief & Appetite Inducer, side effects are a lazy feeling, limp, and relaxed - This is also good for muscle pain.
Pineapple Express - Antidepressant & Mood Stabilizer, this is my main strain for some of the conditions I suffer from, the side effects are an energetic and elevated buzz, I've also noticed that this induces motivation as well as 'higher plane' thinking. This is great for people with 'asshole syndrome' or people who don't want to be stuck on the couch.
Bubblicious - migrain relief & appetite inducer - This is a good strain when you have company over for good times.
Super Skunk - Pain Relief & Antidepressant - This is GREAT for after a long days work when you just need to unwind and relax - Chill out on the couch and watch family guy.
PowerBud - General Treatment - The strain genetics are good for a multitude of symtoms, side effects are increased appetite (munchies like hell), mild muscle relaxer with a tingly feeling at first, and sever couch lock if taken in excess. Very good yields per plant.
Super Lemon Haze - Close to pineapple express in effects, very smooth taste, great sativa yields, this does have a longer flowering time (up to 14 weeks) and has a very heady effect, ever feel like your superman? If not, this will get you there.
Khali Mist - General Treatment, Khali can be used either for THC or CBD depending on who or what its grown for, and its effects can be great on everything from nausea to sleep disorders.

Most of my strains are sativa's or mainly sativa mixes. Your indicas are more for nausea, sleep disorders, etc. I use Grand Daddy Purple to treat insomnia, nausea, stress, and if taken in excess has morphine type effects, however an overdose can make one more nauseous!

Cinderella 99 is a new strain for me, the gentics are pretty solid, and although I need personal experience with it, I'm pretty sure this will be a pain killer/nausea/appetite treatment. Remember, I do grow for medicinal purposes for my wife and I, so some of these I have to keep on hand, like the pineapple express and the GDP - We're actually dry right now, my wife has sever IBS which includes massive nausea spasms lately, and I have a high stress job, so the anti depressants and mood stabilizers keep the 'asshole syndrome' at bay, without making me feel like a zombie. Imagine curing kids ADD with a vaporizer twice a day.... We're only a few years away!

Okay - So for your plants. I would veg these guys out til about 9-12" and hopefully at least 7 nodes by then, and honestly, I'd leave them in the 1 gallon pots. Your not going to yield much, but it is bagseed, so just getting them to flower and being able to harvest is going to brighten your day. If you want to switch them over to 3 gallon to flower, you can, and it will increase the yield, but these girls don't like to be transplanted alot.

I'd like to suggest you get ahold of me personally and we'll go over budget/grow options, and I will gladly design a cabinet that will fit your needs, if you, or someone in the house is handy with tools, we can go cheaper and better

See the purple button under my name? That's how you contact me.
low_rdr Reviewed by low_rdr on . Need help, don't smoke but attempting to grow! Hey all! I'm new to growing and pretty much anything cannabis ;p Because of my ignorance for my first time grow I germinated 5 seeds 2 weeks ago and am now trying to figure these ladies (hopefully) out. Needless to say they are only now getting their third set of leaves and it's slow going! It's been a bumpy road and I've researched like a crazy lady but still have questions. First: Lighting was not optimal in the begining and probably still isn't. Using 4 CFL 100W daylight bulbs 6500K about 4 Rating: 5
