Indoor Growing PURE Sativa - help?

[audiocide]

I am looking for tips on growing sativa indoors. I hate the body high and would rather have something to get me up and doing things, as would most all of my customers. Does anyone know of a strain (perhaps a direct link to a reliable seedbank strain) that has a massive head high that would be fairly easy to grow indoors?

By the way, if I hadn't made myself clear, optimal strain would be pure sativa. However I grow a 20I/80S mix outdoors now and enjoy it as is.

Also, does sativa or indica show betetr results from halogen bulbs? I can't afford to have a huge jump in my electricity bill, investigation would mean a bust. Anyone know of certain feeds or fertilizers to help the plant make the most of what light it does have? Or maybe seem to work for sativa's yield in general?

Also... Feel free to suggest some sativa that tend to grow shorter than most... Keep in mind I want very little indica in the strain.

Thanks for the tips if any, and feel free to share grow experiences with sativa in mind, or any special tending a mainly sativa plant would desire.

You should try a Shaman from Dutch Passion, it has sativa and indica, but more sativa.. 87.5 % sativa, and 13.5 indica...!

Try Armageddon 47... it's an AK47 that's been hybridised to flower quicker.
It's shorter & faster than ak47 but with a decent yeild and good potency.
Mostly sativa (75% +) with great potent head high and no couchlock.
You can begin flowering with 12/12 in 6 to 8 weeks from seed and flowering
can go from 55-80 days.

Powder Puff: Have you ordered from Dutch passion before? What about the US? Would it be a bad idea for a U.S. citizen to order these seeds overseas?

Spacebud: I've heard nice of kush, but there are many varieties out there with "kush" in the name... Just straight kush, or one of those more specific strains?

I'd love to hear more about the kush, as man yfriends talk about it.

Thanks, by the way.

Sorry about the double post, the computer locked (256MB RAM :dance: ) and it acted like it didn't take the signal from the mouse and kinda sat there.

The shaman sounds to have a GREAT high..

Shaman is a cross between Purple #1 and Skunk. The pack of 10 feminised seeds I bought gave me 5 healthy green Shamans and 5 healthy purple Shamans, so it's 50% purple and 50% green.
The purple ones grow out big and christmas tree shaped (check the plant on the left on the 4th picture), the green ones stay more compact and can be made very branchy if topped.
No real problems observed during veg period, except for the usual spider mite attack in the dry period of July, and the usual caterpillar attack starting in early August. But this wasn't a biggie, because I could see them everyday and it is outdoors after all.
Bud period: they produce and finish buds very fast. I had a purple Shaman last year which I could harvest on the 1st of September. The green one seems more resinous than the purple one and makes ball-like compact buds all over the plant with a couple of big balls at the end of the branches. The purple one seems to put all its energy in producing long, spear-like budsticks with a bit of popcorn buds left on the lower part of the plant.
Smoke report: it's the Sativa that is highest in THC from Dutch passion, so it's a very braincharging smoke. One half of a thin joint and you are able to concentrate in a deeper way on drawing, talking to people or watching movies. A whole joint and you find out you have mild visions with eyes closed, you can have loops in your thinking and you are able to understand more things out of the Bhagavad-Gita.
Any more than this is trippy.
In the vaporizer the most I have smoked from this stuff is a very thin joint worth and I had very vivid hallucinations. Sometimes it is like watching the channel on the tv where you see all the channels at once, because I had all kind of images, movies in my mind at the same time, so it got a bit racey for me.
But mostly I smoke a raisin like bud in the vaporizer which gets me very uplifted.
The purple one is more uplifting then the green one.

Look into Kali Mist from serious seeds. I haven't grown this strain before but I plan on it in the near future. From what info I 've gathered about it it's one of ths best sativas around.
