    I don't know where you are going to find purple haze, because there is no such strain.

    I would suggest going with Northern Lights since its your first time growing, if you want to order seeds. Personally, however, being your first time, I would suggest just planting some regular old bagseeds and trying to grow them. That way you aren't spending more money than necessary only to make mistakes (which you will make). Practice, then order some good strains of seeds. Of course, its your money, do what you want. Good Luck.

    Haze is not for the first time grower. I do not know what you want from your plants but I am assuming big yeilds and good smoke. I would recomend Afghani Northern Lights and white widdow.

    Skunk#1 is a great for a first timer as its a very easy to grow and is forgiveing which you should look for in your first plants and as stated above northern lights is also good choice and haze plants are very difficult.

    My Man Skunk #1 - while yes it is nice, reeks!! It does smell like a skunk. Haze is not really that bad its the 12 weeks of flowering and the height (if indoors).

    NL#5xHaze is pretty sturdy and can take some beginner abuse. But if you are going to pop some $$ for seeds. Work with bag seeds a bit to help your learning curve. You need to germinate and raise the lil ones into a somewhat healthy plant. Then you can either flower or cull them and move onto what you purchased.

    Overwatering and overfertilization are common mistakes.
