el nino or la nina?

hello guys, for years I had wanted to try el nino (greenhouse) or la nina (nr.nice) outdoors in my area, 42 degrees north, hot, short summer and fall can be wet. first frost has been averaging the 2nd week of Oct but getting them out a little sooner is always a good thing.

anyway wondering if anyone has grown them out outdoors and how well you liked them? reading on them they are supposed to be he same or very similar plant. I think both were bred by shantibaba before he left greenhouse

they are supposed to finish early but have a very sativa like structure and high. if anyone has any input on them please let me know what you thought and your experience with them. thanks!

also which would you choose if you had to greenhouse or mr.nice? I have never had any mr.nice gear but I hear good things. I have tried a bunch of greenhouse products and it's been about a 50% rate for what I liked fro them

Hi there I am an indoor grower, so I cant answer ALL your questions, but I have ran a cut of La Nina a couple of times. Really good yield, flowering time was around 8-9wks, more of a sativa leaning high. Not the headiest weed I have grown by any stretch but it was well rounded in terms of having a really great yield and ease of growth to make up for that somewhat. I am sure there are lower-yielding, more powerful phenos-- like I said I only had one cut that a friend had gifted me and mothered from that for a while. I have never tried any Green House, but I can speak for Shantibaba's being worth your time. Very low maintenance plant, so I would suspect it'd run great outdoors as well. Here's a couple pics I still have.

many thanks for the reply southerner! I like the fact it is sativa-ish and from what I hear the yield is nice. good to hear the low maintenance part as well. I'm leaning towards the mr.nice version as well since I have yet to hear complaints about their products.

very nice looking buds as well mate!

Love the avatar. I live in the north east and grew el nino outside this year and it was my first strain to finish up. It was done by the first week in Oct.

thanks jimmer, how well would you rate the high from her? i'm not so concerned it being able to be the hardest hitting just have some power and be enjoyable to smoke. also how well would you think she would handle a few days straight rain late in flower?

like your avatar as well i'm babysitting a bulldog puppy for a few weeks he kinda looks similiar. the puppy is an english bulldog cutest thing ever. is your a bulldog as well? this one here looks way fatter than yours.

ghs are copies of mr nice, mr nice has the original parents but had to change the names for legal reasons. you can never go wrong with shantibabas genetics!

Amazing bud Southerner

thanks crazy kiwi, I had thought I've read that before. I'd rather go with mr.nice never tried them but have had some greenhouse I was less than impressed about.

ghs pretty much just by clone only strains from growers and feminise them. my top 3 seed banks of all time are Ace seeds,Cannabiogen and mr nice. have a look at panama from ace and cbg - i think they're all right up to 43degrees - I'm currently growing panama and malawi from them outside in new zealand

nice, thank you. your top 3 banks happen to be 3 I have yet to try. mr.nice has things I have wanted to try for years but have yet to get around, I hear nothing but good about them.

is that panama sativa(ish) in growth structure? have you sampled it yet? I'm realy not crazy picky about getting the biggest or stongest (it's nice however to have) just nice hardy plants with positive vibes on the high. looking for sativa(ish) plants that would finish in my area. I mostly grow indica dominant plants here because they finish on time for me.
