Getting ready for the upcomming outdoor grow. I've been getting the garden area cleared and ready, hard work for an old guy. I had to cut one oak tree down and it broke my heart to do so. But it was shading too much of my grow area and had to go. Put up the deer fencing and laid out the locations of the 45 gal. smart pots that I will be using. Most of the hard work is done now, except for the soil which I expect to be delivered in about a month.
Now comes the real hard part. Choosing the strains from my seed and mother plant selections. Thats where you guys can help me out.
Last year I had problems with several long winded strains ( Haze ) that didn't finish out befor the bad weather hit. So except for one quick growing haze ( Super Lemon Haze ) I plan on growing mostly indica or indica dominant strains.
What I need to know is if anybody with experiance in growing any of these in the great outdoors, can give me a heads up on which strains did good, bad, had problems with, or where real good grows. None of the following strains have been grown outdoors by me.
Strains I can choose from:
BuddA Tahoe Kush Cali Connection
Super Lemon Haze clone
Chronic clone
Critical Royal Queen Seeds
Romulan Next Generation Seeds
Fruit Spirit Royal Queen Seeds
Chem91 Cali Connection
Afghan Kush World of Seeds
Blue Widow DinaFem
Pine Apple Express G13 Labs
Blue Hash DinaFem
Super Skunk G13 Labs
So far, from what reasearch I could find, these are all 8 week or less strains. I hope to have all my harvesting done by Nov. to avoid the weather issues that I had last year. What I don't know is which are the best yeilders, which are mold resistant and which are not, which are more trouble than they are worth and which are the real deal.
The only ones that I have grown, out of the bunch, is the Critical by Royal Queen which I am growing indoors right now and looks very promising, and the Chronic which is about 3 weeks from indoor harvest which also looks to be a good producer, and Afghan Kush, also growng indoors right now, about 4 weeks from finish.
I plan on taking clones by early March from my existing mother plants and am starting seeds right now so as to take clones from them.
If anybody has any comments on the above selection I sure would appreciate any observations, especially from people who have grown these, as I really don't want to waste time and space on strains that will only be second rate or prone to problems.
Thanks for any help in advance
