Virginia's humidity is insane. It's 80 to 90% at night.

What are some outstanding strains that tolerate excessive humidity and have HIGH mold resistance?

I don't really trust most of the crap seed company's say about their hype genetics these days... Designer stuff bred for looks, taste etc.. ESPECIALLY in the US. When I was getting seeds from overseas year's before seedbanks became a thing here. I never had issues with mold/bud rot.

Im in Va and Im growing Golden Tiger Thai from Ace Seeds outside. I figured Thai, Vietnamese land race strains would be closest to matching our horrendous environment. Found a little pm last month and hopped on a Regiment of Lost Coast and BT once a week, this seems to be doing good so far.

I looked up the Lost Coast spray, what's the BT?

I had the same thought of trying strains from humid/jungle type climates. That'll be next year's plan. The 2 I brought inside are doing fine. The outdoor one looks worse every day

Monterey Garden Insect spray. Once they go into flower i will stop using the bt insect spray and probably continue with only lost coast but im not certain yet. I already did an inside grow with the gt thai over winter /spring and its a great strain From Ace seeds. I have some choc thai i recently bought for my next years run.

I was drooling at DFG's plants and then I finally went to DFG's website and realized that he breeds for mildew/mold resistant plants. That is awesome cause his plants all look dope as fuck and I would expect plants to be more airy. I live on coastal new England and the outdoor season is very brutal here. Indoors a good dehumidifier is a must, and even then you will probably encounter problems. I think as a breeder , the aim to select plants based on resistance to mold and mildew is brilliant, and even though I haven't run any of their plants I would consider a breeder who does this for myself, and be happy to spend any money I had on their projects

Same. I haven’t grown any of their gear but I’ve been eyeballing their strains for a few years. They’re on my short list for sure. I need all the help I can get living in the far northeast.

Haze and Mazar varieties should do well

Mazar? You recommend a strain that comes from a desert climate to a guy that has high humidity?? Smh

To the OP, any good Skunk plant would fit your needs as they are very tolerant plants.

Also GG4 has been an excellent outdoor strain for me and I live in the Northeast with hot cold rain and humidity. Hefty yielder as well.

Blueberry has also been an outdoor staple. I have never seen mold issues with blueberry.

Look at Duke Diamond's gear as maybe a reference. He is from Virgina and speaks about growing in the humidity that is Virgina.

Best of luck to your grow!
