ANGEL HEART the first of sixteen!!

Hello to everyone interested in the Mr. Nice Forum!And of course, hello to those who aren't.
Yesterday, the time had finally come, and the first of sixteen varieties purchased at auction was planted for testing. Since I couldn't decide what to plant alongside Angel Heart, I decided to try each variety individually in my small space. So now I'll probably be busy growing these sixteen varieties for some time, or rather years. As my nickname suggests, I'm from Vienna. The cuttings market is quite good here. But now I'm having trouble getting the right Sativa Haze cuttings. My dealer suddenly took a really good SSH Panama and the old Nebula out of their range. I quickly asked myself where I could find some decent Sativa genetics, and and then I remembered the first Cultiva event organized by my boss at the time. Never before in my life had I smelled cannabis with such a church-like scent. When I asked what kind of crap that was, the room suddenly fell silent in horror. Then I only heard Mr. Nice Seeds Shantibabas SSH, NH, and Skunk Haze. Anyway, until then, I mainly knew hybrids like White Russian, Sensi Star, etc. This kind of high and inspiration was a whole new level!Yesterday, eight Angel Heart seeds were planted in soil (Plagron Light Mix). These eight small pots were placed in a mini greenhouse, where they will be exposed to the light of the San Light Stixx over the next few days.There is a heating cable under the pots that keeps the temperature at around 24 degrees.There won't be a long growth phase, as my space, or grow tent, measuring 0.9m x 0.9m x 1.8m, is clearly too small for Sativa Haze dominant plants grown from seed. The AngelHeart plants will definitely be planted in soil with organic fertilizer if necessary. As a light source, I'm thinking about getting my old 315-watt CMH from the basement. We'll see—I still have a good two or three weeks to think about it. This is my first grow report. Suggestions for improvement are welcome.

Yesterday, after about 48 hours at a very constant 24 degrees, I checked on the eight AHs for the first time. After opening the lid of the small greenhouse, I was delighted to see that all eight Angel Hearts had seen the light of day. Everything went according to plan. Actually, even better than expected. I thought I might have to help one or two of them along, as I'm used to helping some of them shed their seed coats. So right from the start, I was pleasantly surprised that all eight seeds germinated at the same time. First picture after about 48 hours, the second 5 hours later! Now I'm giving the 8 AH 7 to 10 days to form proper roots.

Vielen Dank für die herzlichen Glückwünsche! Besonders der hilfreiche Tipp zum orangen Phänotyp! Ich werde mir den Thread mal ansehen. Vielen Dank, Tom Bolenate! be great if there was a female angel among them, like the one you mentioned in the Scunkd0cs report. With eight seeds, the chances are pretty slim. But hope dies last! Since I want to change my mother plants, or rather mother cuttings (too little space). The cuttings sellers I know no longer have any decent Sativa-heavy cuts in their range. Mr. Nice was the only option for me. I tried ACE Seeds before. The Killer Malawi didn't quite do what I wanted or satisfy me.
 
Hello everyone! A brief interim report from the eight AH.sm. Of course, a big thank you for all the congratulations on the trip with the AH's.So on Sunday, January 11, 2026, I continued by filling the eight small 0.25-liter pots almost to the top with Lightmix. Since I usually only fill the growing pots two-thirds full when planting Sativa/Haze hybrids, I can compensate for the initial stretching behavior of the seedlings a few days later and provide them with more support.On this day, the eight AH received a light solution of 80 to 100 ml (soil very dry, normally 50 ml) with Hesi Roots that I had left over. This goes against my organic principles, but I accept it at this early stage, as they are in this state and not in a mineral Plagron light mix.
 
There isn't much more to report yet. Of course, the seedlings already differ somewhat from each other. AH2 shot up the most, even though it had somewhat mutated, rather stunted leaves. Another one does not have this growth potential.Four of the AH have slightly purple leaf axils (I don't think so). I would also like to mention that you should carry out the germination test at 24 degrees and then keep the temperature a little cooler for the first few days, at only 20 to 22 degrees for the first 14 days or so. I read about this in my first book. I believe that cooler temperatures, regular seeds, and fewer hours of light (16 hours for the first 10 days) result in a higher potassium content. As I said, that was 20 years ago. But I somehow imagine that the cooler temperature really helps. Enough talk. Unfortunately, I've noticed in many threads that good photos are important. Unfortunately, I only have a relatively old cell phone. I hope it's not too bad.Here are two more photos of how things look in these pots. I'll give them another 5 days to really take root before I repot them. Best regards to all

So here's a little interim report on the eight AH! I actually wanted to repot the eight little AHs into slightly larger pots a few days ago because the roots were already growing out of the pots despite their tender age.Unfortunately, something urgent came up. To be precise, serious complaints from neighbors. That the stench is unbearable. Despite new filters, etc. Of the twelve apartments in the building, three people are complaining and have even called the police.In fact, she once stood at the door. After I had unfortunately already been locked up for almost eight years of my life because of this wonderful plant and the products it provides us humans, such as medicine, etc. So I decided to get rid of my wardrobe with the four small flowering plants as quickly as possible. The tent I had set up for the AH also had to be taken down, of course. Everything had to be arranged so that the authorities had no reason to complain. Enough said. Fortunately, this meant I couldn't put the 8AH in larger pots, so they were easy to transport without a car. Because, of course, a new place was sought and found!In any case, the 8AH are crying out for larger pots. Tomorrow they will be planted in their final pots. I want to use a mixture of Light Mix (BioBizz) and Batmix from Plagron. That is, if I can get hold of some tomorrow. I'll also add a few Bio Tabs products. The Perfect Plant Set, which is designed for two plants, has been lying around for a while, so let's get started!So, now here are two cell phone photos showing how the angels have developed so far. The two photos were taken pretty much right after they saw the light of the San Light Stixx two weeks ago. For the first 2-3 days, it glowed at only 20%, then for another seven days at 40%, and now at 60%The soil was only moistened with stale water for germination at the beginning. With this moisture, they lasted for days after successful germination. They probably would have needed water after 10 days, as I clearly made the soil too wet. That's why I put some dry soil on top before planting the seeds, so that it wasn't too soggy!Since I had clearly made the soil too moist, I added some dry soil before planting the seeds so that it wasn't too muddy! In any case, I gave the 8AH half the dosage of Hesi Roots about 5 days after germination, even though they certainly didn't need anything yet. I knew I would be away from home for the next three days.Otherwise, I wouldn't have watered them yet.
I wish everyone a great time until next time. Thank you all for your wonderful reports. You can always learn something new in a great forum like this one.
!!!THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

The 8 AH were all planted in 11-liter pots with Plagron Light Mix. Each pot contains one BioTabs PPPack. 20 grams of Startrex and 0.75 grams of Myco Trex per planting hole. Half a gram of Mycotrex was sprinkled directly onto the roots of each of the 8 AH seedlings. They were then dipped in a Boom Boom Spray solution and planted.Due to careless ventilation, a heavy mattress fell on all 8AH. They were all badly flattened and one was decapitated. It has since recovered fantastically, so all eight are still in the race.
They now feel very comfortable under the Cmh 315 Watt 4200K for a few hours. Otherwise, the tent is currently only equipped with a recirculation fan and an extraction fan at 50% 400m³/h AKFilter 300m³/h. As soon as the females are known, they may be
connected to an irrigation system. Since I am not on site every day, the 8AH was watered with 10 liters of water in which 100 ml of Orgatrex and 10 grams of Bactrex were dissolved.A very simple setup. Just like they used to do it. At least that's how it was for me for a long time. The path to success. The eight Angel Hearts will probably get another day to acclimatize with 18 hours of light. Then they had two days to recover from all the stress. So, and finally, cell phone photos 😅 of how it looks. Front right is the decapitated one. Coconut mulch slices so that the soil doesn't dry out so quickly. Nematodes will colonize the soil in about a week. Flowering phase classically at night. You don't need to heat during the night phase at this time of year. As soon as the females are identified, they each get two more BioTabs fertilizer tablets. Now half a tablet per pot. Since everything costs money and no revenue is generated from the products, it's not a cheap hobby.

I agree, @Swifty. I'm enjoying this grow the old-school way, as I want to compare it to the newer equipment in terms of power consumption. I used the complete Spyder Farmer Genius growing system. It worked quite well for the price once it was calibrated and adjusted, but I want to know I think the MNS strains cope wonderfully with old-school conditions. Unlike many of the new trendy strains, which I find are usually real divas and often need perfect conditions to perform well. Don't hesitate.
 
The eight Angel Hearts have recovered from their ordeal. And very quickly, too. That's why, two days after repotting them into their final pots, I set the light cycle to 12/12. This was to take into account the 25% Haze content and the limited growth height. As mentioned, the plants were only watered once. Five days later, they received an additional liter of water per pot. So 2 liters in 10 days. Another photo of the eight Angel Hearts, taken exactly one week later in the 12/12 day/night cycle. Two days after repotting, with an 18/6 light cycle, the 315-watt CMH lamp hung a good meter above the plants.Over the next two days, I will take cuttings from them. If a treasure is found.So far, I've noticed a strikingly similar smell: skunky and fruity. More on that later.That's how it looks. As you can see, three plants were decapitated after all.Until next time, I wish you all the best...

The next step was to cut at least one cutting from each of the 8AH plants, preferably two. I cut two from four of them and one from the other half. I didn't want to sacrifice any more branches from the four where only one had been removed. Of these four plants where only one was cut, I suspect they are males. That's just my gut feeling. We'll see!The cuttings were placed in 4x4cm rock wool cubes. Even though I don't really like rock wool, I got these cubes extremely cheaply, at less than 10 cents each! They were soaked for 24 hours in hydrogen peroxide and Hesi Power Roots at a pH value of 5.0. !The interface was sprinkled with algae root activator.They were then placed in a plastic mini greenhouse under the Stixx LED at 40% power on heating cables, as the soil would otherwise be too cold. Above them, on the roof of the greenhouse, are two small pots with SSH plants to provide shade. Tonight, a place for the cuttings will be set up under blue LED strips. After each plant, the blade scissors are disinfected. I learned this 15 years ago in a cutting production facility where I worked. The daily target was a minimum of 1,400 pieces per shift.Respect to those who still manage to do that today.
Enough talk. Here's another good cell phone photo🫣of the cuttings.
Next time, we'll continue with sex identification. Until then, all the best, have a great time, and stay high!😉

Even with the eight Ah, there was some progress. Nematodes were added as a preventive measure. The most important thing is that they seem to be feeling well. I suspect that four of them are female. I also suspect that two are male, or at least that's what it looks like to me at first glance. We'll

see, as I won't be back on site for another two, if not four days. AH 7 smells very hazy but doesn't look that way. But it's too early to tell.
Unfortunately, I have a lot to do because of this. More details next time.As always, have a good time and stay high!

You won't be disapointed.
Angel heart is a beast.
Look for the ''orange pheno'' like the one in @skunkd0c report...it's killer.
Absolutely right about the beast! Transporting them in the cold. That stupid mishap. (Heavy mattress fell on all eight of them.) They were so flattened that I thought all eight were broken. Hemp can really take a lot. You can really tell that Mr. Nice has some really great genetics. And at auction, too, for great prices. Thanks to the good threads on the forum, the fridge feels full of seeds.It doesn't get any better than this. The forum has great grow reports on the strains available from Mr. Nice Seeds, written by lots of different people with varying levels of experience. You can see whether something is right for you or not. There are plenty of reports on the strains, but none are as transparent and detailed as the ones here!
Really great!!!!So, enough talk. Tom Bolenate wishes you all the best and hopes you all have a fantastic time in your beautiful gardens.
 
Now we continue with six female Angel Heart plants.
AH7 and AH6 quickly revealed their male sex. The remaining 6AH plants each received a Bio Tabs fertilizer tablet in their pot. Each of them also received 10 ml of PK 5-8 BioTabs bloom fertilizer in one liter of water.They have already grown in the meantime. Not as vigorously as expected, but there is definitely room for improvement. The lower branches are still very spindly due to lack of light. So, in the next few days, I will consider which leaves and lower branches to remove, or whether to do so at all. We'll see! I will probably supplement the light source with a HortiOne LED tomorrow, but not at full power, of course. I will keep a close eye on the 6AH plants, as three of them are not yet clearly in female pre-flowering. However, since the two males have appeared, I suspect that these are female specimens. It is better to check this carefully.The males go on the compost heap. Both men's cuttings are still rooting, but they will probably end up on the compost heap too. This is what they look like so far.

A quick update on the Angel Heart cuttings taken on February 19, 2026. While doing my weekly mini greenhouse disinfection and maintenance today, I noticed that they had all formed roots. Only one root tip was visible on 2xAH2 and 1xAH5, so these three were repotted in BioBizzLightMix under the hood with the ones I thought would root super fast (UltraSourTHSeeds and Marshmallow O.G). So every angel has a huge head start. Without rooting hormone, I usually expect at least 14 days. So 100% form roots. I therefore estimate that they will thrive!Now they are all standing in 0.25 liter pots so that they can thrive under the San Light Stixx.
