- Subject: Sensi [Marijuana] Seed Bank Catalog -- less excerpted
-
- [in his previous post, an anon-o-neophyte manages to convince the anon
- daemon that the bulk of his posting is actually a .signature]
-
- Folks,
-
- I've just received the latest copy of the Sensi Seed Bank catalog from
- Holland and thought I'd type in the seed descriptions for your
- enjoyment. (Sorry I can't include the pictures, they're great!)
-
- Reading this makes me realize how enlightened the Dutch are. How did
- we get to the point where keeping the company of certain plants will
- get you a ruined life, courtesy of the Government? Keep up the good
- fight, let's make it legal in the US!
-
- Disclaimer: I only wish I could be their happy customer!

- SENSI SEED BANK
-
- All you need, you'll find at Sensi Seed
-
- Sensi Seed Bank B.V. is the first complete growshop in Holland. You'll
- find a vast collection of books for beginner or expert, fertilizers
- for growing in soil or hydroponics, lighting, ecologically sound crop
- protection, growing systems and of course our unique, world-famous
- seed collection. In short, a visit to our shop is a must for every
- grower!
-
- Grow it and you'll know it!
-
- This leaflet provides you with a survey of all the seeds in our
- collection. You'll find a description of the different varieties as
- well as some data on harvest times and yields which will help you make
- your choice. The plants fall into three categories: 1) Indoor,
- 2) Indoor/greenhouse, 3) Outdoor.
-
- The indoor flowering period gives the amount of time the plants need
- to finish off once you have put them into flowering (12 hours of
- light/12 hours of darkness). For the outdoor varieties the data refer
- to the approx. date of harvest in Holland. Because of uncertain
- weather conditions in September and October we recommend to choose
- early varieties for outdoor growing. The data on yield give you an
- idea of the possibilities of the different varieties. Since the yield
- depends on the grower as well as on the conditions the data are no
- guaranteed results. The prices are given for 15 seeds.
-
- We are not able to give any guarantees on these seeds, since we are
- dealing with living material. However, we test the viability and
- germination rates of all varieties on a regular basis.
-
- The seeds are only meant for agricultural purposes within the
- Netherlands.
-
- NORTHERN LIGHTS (Winner pure indica 88/89/90 -- Indoor)
- [photo: mouth watering shot of a sticky bud]
-
- An absolute must for the indoor grower! For the last couple of years
- the Northern Lights has dominated the various Harvest Festivals. Through
- selective breeding we have succeeded in producing one of the most
- powerful plants in the world. On top of that, we have developed a
- strain highly adapted for indoor growing: short, stocky plants that
- produce maximum yields in the shortest possible time.
-
- Flowering: 45-50 days
- Height 100-125 cm
- Yield: up to 125 gr
- Price: fl. 200.00 [that's Guilders -- 1.8 to the dollar these days. It
- works out to about $7.50 a seed]
-
-
- SILVER HAZE (champion 89 -- Indoor)
- [photo: mouth watering shot of a sticky bud]
-
- Although the cerebral high of Sativa is preferred by many, indoor
- growers aren't too fond of this type: Sativas get very tall, take a
- long time to finish off and produce skimpy yields. We have spent years
- searching for a superb Indica/Sativa hybrid suited for indoor growing.
- By crossing the Haze, the most powerful Sativa in the world, to a
- non-dominant Indica we managed to get the height and flowering time
- of the plant down to an acceptable level and still retain the unique
- Sativa qualities of the high. The result: the Silver Haze, winner of
- the '89 High Times Harvest Festival. Don't expect top yields but top
- quality that will excite the true connoisseur.
-
- Flowering: 65-75 days
- Height: 150-180 cm.
- Yield: up to 100 gr.
- Price: fl. 200.00
-
- SHIVA SHANTI I (Indoor)
-
- This Afghani with its penetrating Indica aroma is one of the best
- yielders in the collection. Due to its top indoor performance combined
- with a pleasant taste and high the Shiva Shanti is one of our most
- popular varieties.
-
- Flowering: 50-65 days
- Height: 110-150 cm
- Yield: up to 150 gr.
- Price: fl. 60.00
-
- BIG BUD (winner: Mostly Indica '89 -- Indoor)
-
- For sheer yield and hybrid vigor, this is the best yet. The plants
- surprise even experienced growers. Huge buds, excellent resin, taste
- and high. Somewhat variable, approx. 1 in 4 females will be an extreme
- heavy yielder, with the longer flowering plants giving the biggest
- yields.
-
- Flowering: 50-65 days
- Height: 110-150 cm
- Yield: up to 150 gr.
- Price: fl. 160.00
-
- NORTHERN LIGHTS #5 X HAZE (Winner: Mostly Sativa '90 -- Indoor)
-
- Finally for sale in Holland: this superb Indica/Sativa hybrid, a cross
- between our best Indica and Sativa strains. Extremely potent with
- unique Sativa qualities to the high. Due to the Haze influence this
- hybrid tends to stretch in height during flowering. Therefore it must
- be flowered when very small. An excellent choice for an ebb and flow
- table. Cuttings can be put into flowering as soon as they show roots.
- The 10 week flowering period is well compensated with an excellent
- yield.
-
- Flowering: 65-75 days
- Height: 150-180 cm
- Yield: up to 150 gr.
- Price: fl. 250.00

- RUDERALIS SKUNK (Outdoor)
- [photo: mouth watering shot of a field full of sticky bud]
-
- Ruderalis is an early-flowering variety that grows wild in parts of
- Eastern Europe and Russia. We have used the early flowering
- characteristic of Ruderalis to improve the outdoor performance of some
- of our best varieties. The advantage of a Ruderalis hybrid is that
- approx. 50% of the seedlings will begin flowering at the 5-7th
- internode, regardless of the photoperiod (finishing date Sept. 1). The
- other half of the seedlings will be much later (October).
-
- Finish: Sept-Oct.
- Height: 2-3 m.
- Yield: up to 300 gr.
- Price: fl. 80.00
-

- A very early strain from South Africa. Durban is a compact Sativa with
- a sweet aroma and an up high. One of the most reliable early outdoor
- varieties, it will produce chunky, solid buds even during the worst
- season. If you haven't tried Durban, you are missing out on one of the
- easiest to grow, highest-quality early varieties in the world.
-
- Finishing: end of Sept.
- Height: 1.5-2.5 m
- Yield: up to 400 gr.
- Price: fl. 100.00
-
- EARLY SKUNK (Outdoor)
-
- An excellent hybrid between Skunk #1 and Early Pearl. Outdoor growers
- are usually dissatisfied wit the finishing date of the regular Skunk
- strain. The Early Skunk finishes about 2 weeks earlier than Skunk #1
- due to the influence of the Early Pearl. The influence of the latter
- is also noticeable in the smell and the high: sweet and smooth. On top
- of that: the strain combines a good yield with mold resistance.
-
- Finishing date: Oct. 1
- Height: 2-3m.
- Yield: up to 500 gr.
- Price: fl. 60.00
-

- Height: 1.5-2m.
- Yield: up to 250 gr.
- Price: fl. 100.00
-
- EARLY PEARL (Outdoor)
