Exotic Strains: Purple Pakistan x Nepalese


Special limited edition.

We had some very good results while searching in the selection with the S1 seeds we grew from our purple mother of Pakistan.

We found really nice plants including some better yielders and vigour still remain in all of them.We were surprised also with the different smells we found in these plants,much more sweet and strawberry alike than the mother.

All the plants still got the purple colour of the mother,including some softer purple colours and more pinky ones,being all small and strong very quickly flowering indica plants.

The Nepalese male influence adds a quicker and more vigorous general growth,wich is a little bit slow in Pakistan,also some more facility to find branchy plants.This f1 has bit more production and days of flower time (60-65 days) than the Purple mother,but still a very easy and good resulting plant indoor and outdoor.Flower scents vary from earthy-mushrooms to some very sweet phenos and some strawberry ones also.Happy effect that leaves you with calmed and with a smile on your face.

How to Quit Smoking WEED?

How to Quit Smoking Weed for Good

Taking that initial step and firm resolve to quit smoking, requires a lot of determination and self-control, on the part of the pot head. Smoking is an addiction that labels you as someone who cannot do without weed, making you want to smoke it all day everyday, or when you get together with friends. There are some people who do it in the dark, and don't frequently indulge in the habit (out of living circumstances), but are all the more addicts because of the craving. Marijuana effect on the brain isn't pleasant, and can be long-lasting. Here we help out those of you who want to nip the habit, and bid that stash of weed goodbye. Here's how you can learn how to quit smoking weed everyday.

Say it Proud
Giving up the habit is no small feat, and it requires you to be bold enough to spread the word, that you're off the habit for good. It is important to make a conscious decision of how it would improve not just your health, but your life, if you were to know how to stop smoking weed. It's no easy task, and it pulls in that help factor, that you will need, for others to assist you in aiding you to stay off the drugs.

Help from Family and Friends
If you've been doing this long enough, and your parents know about it, it's time you put them out of their misery, and confront them about needing support to quit smoking drugs. They'd be glad to help and suggest places where you can interact with others in weekly meetings, on trying to stay off weed. It would help resolve a lot of issues, and build a bond between you and them, that was broken when you were indulging in your addiction. The family strain wears out, and you can look forward to a whole new you. Friends alike who didn't want to hang out with you, or those that spread the word to others about what you were up to, can be your stepping stone to quit drugs. Take their advice, and be open to suggestions to help you stay clean for good.

Managing Diet
Getting off the weed, means dealing with a lot of hunger pangs, and overeating to substitute the craving, as a mixed signal to eat all you can instead. It'll take a while for your body to get used to the idea of not getting any drug intake, and it will slowly adjust to the switch. Try eating more of healthy edibles like fruits and greens, to help you binge on at least what is beneficial for you. Slowly help your system recuperate in its own way, and don't let junk food substitute your healthy meals.

Stay Positive
You need to tell yourself to be positive, and that smoking weed is not your only option in this life that you lead. There's more to it than that. Think of those who love you, and those who want the best out of you, when doing something more solid with your life, than smoking it away. High school/college going students face a lot of troubles in their lives, having to deal with individual pressures from family, abuse, negligence, misleading peers and bad influences, often getting into drug abuse to deal with these factors. You need to get your act straight, and seek help from someone you trust, if you feel like you don't have anyone to turn to. Seek help from school/college/work counselors, and get the required help that you need. If you feel that you're experiencing anxiety, you may need to ask a doctor to prescribe antianxiety medication for you.

Submerge Yourself in Hobbies/Activities
Get active and immerse your thoughts in trying to fulfill a hobby you've ignored, or never attempted to try out, and be a part of different and new things. Help yourself to stay distracted, and not allow you resort to faltering, even for a second. There are many ways for you to start-up on something, by doing ample research on recreational outdoor activities, or centers that help you to be a part of them. Get involved, and put yourself out there.

Brush Off Discouragement
There may be people who will put you down, by throwing discouraging / sarcastic comments at you. They can pass statements like 'You'll never be able to quit', 'You're going to quit smoking weed? No way!', 'Losers can't quit smoking weed', and other such similar comments. Don't let them get to you, and avoid backtracking into your habit out of depression or rebel against yourself impulsively as an outlet for your anger and frustration.

How to Quit Smoking Cigarettes

Smoking is another bad habit, that one shouldn't overly indulge in, since they have repercussions that will follow over time. Look through, the harmful health effects of smoking cigarettes, to see what I mean. Here are steps on how to get started on quitting the habit.
  • Tell family and friends that you've quit smoking, and stress how important it is that they support you. Tell family members to smoke outside the house, and don't encourage friends from smoking at home, but outside instead too. After all second-hand smoking is just as bad.
  • Get rid of the last traces of cigarettes in your home, and throw away ashtrays that you have lying around.
  • Get yourself a nicotine patch, and try to seek help with Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT), where a nicotine patch is stuck onto one's arm, where it seeps through the skin of the smoker. It switches smokers from inhaling cigarette smoke, to nicotine providing patches, where they slowly stop using the patches once their bodies no longer crave smoking.
  • When you get restless and fidgety after you've quit, keep alternatives to keep you busy, like carrot sticks, sugarless gum, straws, toothpicks and so on. Like weed, the body needs a distraction, since food cravings are evident here as well. Eat healthy foods or get involved in other distractions that don't keep you constantly thinking of having a smoke.
  • Use bupropion, which is an antidepressant, that will help you deal with depression bouts that tend to take place in those who want to quit.
  • Varenicline, which is a medication for smokers, and has a success rate of about 44 percent in 12 weeks to help in snuffing the habit.
Aftereffects When One Quits Smoking Cigarettes

There are a lot of changes that your body goes through after you've let go of the habit of smoking. These changes include the following.
  • Not having to deal with yellowing stained teeth.
  • Sense of smell goes back to normal, and becomes more distinct in picking up aromas/scents.
  • Clothes and hair don't smell of cigarette smoke anymore.
  • Being active doesn't leave you gasping for air.
  • Yellow fingernails and yellowish finger skin tones, will go back to their normal color.
  • Food tastes a lot better.
  • Carbon monoxide levels in the blood drop.
  • Heart rate drops back to normal.
  • Coughing decreases.
  • Lessens the risk of infection.
  • Lungs are cleaner.
  • Decreases your chances by half in getting coronary heart disease.
  • Chances of getting esophagus, cervix, throat, mouth, pancreas and bladder cancer decreases.
  • Makes you avoid getting wrinkles, and stops you from aging faster.
Now that you know how to quit smoking weed, as well as cigarettes, you are on your way to staying healthy, by also noticing significant changes in your overall appearance. Good luck!
