Whattup RIU! Hope everyone had a great 420. I will be beginning my first grow here shortly and was looking for some advice on the strains im considering. Im in Colorado and will be using Craigslist(i know not the best idea but not the worst). Im a first timer so im looking for something forgiving to noob/ease of growth, good yielder, great bag appeal, smelly, and STRONG. Another big requirement is it cant get too tall. Im growing in a 6.5 tall tent and because im a first timer i dont want to use any advanced techniques(scrog, cropping, ect). Id like to just watch her grow in her natural beauty for this time.
I have started talking to some of the growers that have clones available and i have compiled a list. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. If you have grown it, smoked it, watever....the more info i have on it the better decision i feel i will make. Thanx big time peeps. BTW in no particular order and im only picking two:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:....


GDP(one of my top5 smoked)
Romulan
Deathstar
Blue velvet
Master Kush(really considering this)
Gorilla Glue #4
Bubba kush
Jack Herer
Ak47 (top5 smoked)
Chernobyl(some kinda blood pheno cut or something....guy says its highy sought after)
Blue Knight (says its a very rare strain)
Mob Boss
Larry OG
Kong(found a guy that wants $500 dollar a cut!!!! obviously not the guy i would acquire it from)
Grape Ape
Afghani
Sfv og
Alien OG

$500 for a cut of Kong is retarded. I have smoked many on the list, and grown afew out myself. I'd go for the GDP & Bubba personally. What type of hum are you looking for? Total couchlock or something you can actually go through your daily functions on?

Take Jack Herer off the list. Some phenos (seems like most) will grow ridiculously tall. I have one I have had to tie 10 different ways to keep it out of the lights and it is still too close.
Afghani is certainly hardy and will give you good end results in both yield and quality, but to me it is better as a cross than it is pure.

Most of the other strains are good to go IMO.

Thanx for the replies peeps. I'm not necessarily looking for a particular high. I love functional weed. My girl just told me I can build a green house so I'm goin to try and do 8 plants inside(2-4 strains) and possibly 4 outside(each a different strain...so 4). Kinda changes my question. I'm thinking Gdp, death Star, master kush, gg#4....inside. And ak47, Chernobyl, Larry og, sfv of outside.

Cancel the greenhouse idea....too much work/mny to contain the smell. Man I wanna use that sun. I think I'm goim to go with 4 strains inside. 2 of each. Definetly goin with Gdp. After that I'm thinking Gg#4, deathstar, and either sfv og,bubba,master, or larry. Oh I forgot to mention I can get Deadhead og. I guess it comes down to ease of growth and strength at this point.

OK so I have decided....I think on GDP death Star and gg#4. I want to add a kush to this. High yielding, easy for a noob, and strong as the first fire u ever smoked???? Any suggestions peeps. Bubba and master seem like they are tried and true. Sfv og, larrry, and deadhead seem a little more exotic. I want a great true kush. Even if it isn't on my list I'm down for suggestions. I'm in CO....it seem as though anything is possible out here...man this is so fn exciting!

There's a pretty good community of Colorado people here on the forums, you could most likely get cuts from a better place than craigslist I wouldn't trust craigslist much too many scammers there. What part of Colorado are you in by the way? Welcome to the forums !

To tell u the truth I didn't know what I could and couldn't do on here....I depend on this site for so much info I didn't want to jerpordize that doing something wrong. But on the other hand I would love to find a safer more dependable route. Thanx again Yoda for the advice.
