UnorthadoxDude After receiving a mail call today from Sensi Seeds, I was delighted to see four old school indica leaning strains and regular seeds to boot. Thinking about when I might get to grow these out, I figured next season is basically going to be the earliest. I just cannot wait that long to try these epic strains though, and since I have 14 of each seed, I thought I would try a little experiment.
As soon as these seeds germinate I will plant them into small pots in the poly tunnel. I expect photoperiod plants to start flowering around late August here in the UK, and it is rapidly approaching mid august now. So this is essentially going to be a 12/12 from seed type of run, but outdoor in the poly.
This strain is Shiva Skunk, this will be my first skunk strain. Beans put into moist paper towel in open sandwich bag at 16:45pm 7th Aug '25, and thrown on the floor of the tent. In three days I will check on them and hopefully they will be ready to plant.
I am very excited to run these beans - are you going to follow along for the ride? 😄
Update at 36h: Checking the beans at 36h I see that 4/4 have popped. I will leave them for another 36 hours then check again.
Thank you very much to Sensi Seeds for sponsoring this grow.
I have not yet decided on which nutrients to run, either shogun or plagron.

UnorthadoxDude Hello growmie! Welcome to first week of veg for this crazy experiment with classic indica strains.
These four shiva skunk seedlings are all looking very healthy, very excited by this strain.
The aim here is to get one good female.
Anway, let's see what happens shall we? Regular updates to come.
Day 5: After four days in the greenhouse I have moved into the poly tunnel as these girls stretched for light. They have been in the poly tunnel for about 24h. Two seedlings looking good, one seedling has some deformity, and one seedling unforunately looks to be damping off.
Day 7: Plant 3 damped off. Plant 4 is looking very strange but at least it is growing. I think these three should survive from here.

UnorthadoxDude Week two is here and we have two good shiva skunk plants and one that is growing strangely.
Day 9: The first photographs here at day 9 show the girls transitioning into veg - except weirdo number 4.
Day 13: Two girls look good, one looks... well not good. I am going to let it carry on but I think it will die.
