Hello and welcome, hope you will enjoy the following show. To start off i will give a brief overview on my set up.

Light: 400W HPS
Soil: Fox Farms Ocean Forest
Pots: 3 gallon
Ferts: Full Fox Farms Line(Grow Big, Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, Open Seasame, Beastie Bloomz, Cha-Ching)


I let these babies veg for 3 weeks before flower. AS you can see the sativa in the Purp #1 has really made that plant shoot up. It double the size of all my other plants, which has caused me to start some LST.

Here is the breeder info on the strains.

Holland Hope




One of the first Dutch Outdoor strains, grown in Holland since the early eighties. A heavy Indica variety with a knock-out stone. Very mold resistant. Recommended.


Flowering period: 8 weeks Harvest time outdoor: end of Sept., 1 week Oct


Purple#1





A strong plant (50% Indica, 50% Sativa), easy to grow. Purple Afghan seeds have been crossed in Holland with Indica and Sativa varieties since 1983. The plants are fully adapted to the Dutch climate and have a respectable yield. This variety has calyxes that turn purple, starting at the beginning of flowering. Up to 90% of the plants turn purple. Has a rough but subtle aroma and a very good high.


Flowering period: 8 weeks Harvest time outdoor: 2nd half of Sept., 1st week of Oct

Everything is still going great with the grow. My ladies are packing on some bud. So far the Hollands Hope is the only plant showing any purple yet. You will see below the LST that had to be done to Purple #1.

Did I ever tell you I hate hermies, well I do! My Purp #1 hermied on me and a few of teh sacks opened before i caught it. I am hoeing it will not effect my crop to badly. So obvisouly I removed the Purp from teh closets it is drying now and i will try and make some hash from it i guess.

As far as the Hollansd Hope goes that plant is beautiful. It is growing a nice and dense cola of purple bud. Can't wait to see this thing to start packing bud.

The HH is a wonderful plant. Would be perfect for a SoG operation. The plant does'nt bush out at all. It is naturally compact and is making a nice size cola. The purple is really start to show through now and has a nice hashy smell to it.

How do the trichs look? Think it'll be ready in just two weeks?

Dude I NEED some Holands Hope LOL!

I'm right there with ya! I usually plant outside, and that what HH is, but I'm going indoors this winter, so I wasn't sure if I wanted to get some, or focus on more indoor oriented varieties. Now that I see that it will do well, I'm just waiting for the harvest to see the yield...
