@TopicalWave I’ve seen those grows, @TexasTea is over here too, we’re sorta neighbors IRL I think so that’s at 43 degrees north or so
I think I remember you mentioning that to me when we spoke last year! And I mean if you have the time, ability and desire to, then I’d say working a line to the early side is a perfect option and the way I would go.
But aside from the tried a true, old school outdoor Canadian strains, I wouldn’t hold my breath and put all my eggs into one basket without anticipating some disappointment on a strain like green mountain Grape at these latitudes.
Red Snake keeps going, but she is ripening now. I figure at least two or three more weeks until seeds are starting to be ripe enough.
I’m at 50.5 and put a few plants outside last year. i would recommend you autoflowers. With good timing you can grow them indoors a few weeks ahead of time. And then when the weather gets nice at the end of April. The beginning of May Put Them outside. Ready in ±60 days. this means you can do a few harvests in a season outdoors. I have also put regular plants outside with good results but takes longer. Happy growing
I think Lolab is a good landrace rabbit hole to go down for you, along with Nepalese or vintage Canadian stuff. There’s a good grow thread here of the ILE Lolab that makes me think I’d personally want to work with a hybrid of it to a modern high potency outdoor strain to jumpstart selection (also I love reading Ngakpa posts):
I will find out. I live in a region with a lot of wine growing going on. And my understanding is the wine farmers today can grow varieties that weren’t able to ripen to end 20 years ago (vegetation periods are lengthening probably due to climate change). My micro climate seems to be generally favorable this far up north.
Same.
On paper it looks like this is exactly what I’m looking for. The Green Poison F1 Fast Version looks to tempting not to buy. Thanks for the link. Much appreciated would never have been on my list.
I should note that I’m in a 3b zone so you have a much more mild area being 8b.
No problemo, if you’re ordering in the UK hit up @George_The_Vault he’s a longtime Overgrow site sponsor and carries Sweet Seeds among many others:
Here’s some of the posts I’ve seen about them on here, folks who’ve grown them:
That reference to Dinafem’s lab:
Czech guy with a short grow log:
Thanks. I tried 3 different Auto Strains outdoor this year, I found them very low yielding and sensitive to mistakes. If the vegetation period and up planting doesn’t go well you are left with a tiny harvest. I also was growing a Photoperiod Runtz from RQS that was a freebie. I harvested the Runtz mid-october, and there was no amber trichome present. I have to admit all the plants needed more sun but my one Runtz-plant beat 5 Autos regarding yield, effect and taste under sub optimal conditions. But I will definitely run Autos again in 2023.
I was very interested in Nepalese too but it seems to have a longer flowering time.
Great Idea.
I had a plant that was loki’s whisper autoflower didn’t get big but very tasty , I think about 50gr came off dry. nice buds. but i understand you.
I had the same problem as you with those regular seeds. i had butrot and no amber tricomes
So I think we should start earlier with those regulars and order special types. suitable for our climate. I’m in Belgium so a lot of rain…
Because I don’t have much money and because it’s for outdoors I order my seeds here.
Check https://nordicgenetics.net and seedheaven
But you probably won’t need to use this because we have such a good forum here that people just help you and send you seeds for free. Best wishes brother
D-man exotic spice all finished end of sept really solid outdoor not the biggest yielder Humbolts lemon kush have some phenos that finsh mid Sept and was better smoke then the later ones both are mold resistant D-man has some other early finisher and does his breeding in Canada
They advertise it with “Massive Production”, can you confirm? The Terpeneprofil looks interesting:
I got my self Dream Queen from HSC with 45 days flowering time. Its supposed to be their fastest “sativa”.
No it was low yield maybe with a long veg could be better I start mid Feb and move out mid may was expecting them to be tall but nothing over 4.5 ft
Early Skunk(sensi, mr nice) Early Pearl
Early Durban
Ealry Maroc
Top44 (not sure about this one)
Thanks man. I’ve grown Sensi Seeds White Skunk 2 or 3 years ago and was very satisfied with the Result (looking back I’m not sure it was really finished).
I keep those in mind. The last time I smoked Durban Poison was probably 25 years ago and I liked it very much.
I got my first order out today:
- Texada Timewarp reg (BC-Bud Depot)
- Green Poison fem (Sweet Seeds)
- EEP - 75% Erdbeerli reg (Helvetic Seeds)
- MAC1 fem (Helvetic Seeds)
I didn’t choose the Green Poison F1 because the Original Green Poison seems to have won some competitions and is pretty fast too. The MAC1 is of course not an obvious choice, I’m just curious how far she will get up north, I know she probably can’t be reproduced by seed.
Would have loved me some Cinderella 99 but Brothers Grimm seem to be a bit pricy (FDM Cindy 99 wasn’t in stock at my chosen Seedbank.
I will order some more Seeds another time. I still want to get me a 100 Day Auto and some of the above mentioned Landrace type cultivars. Cindy 99 and Friesland are also still on the list.
Prohibition rears its ugly head again…
Nice! I hope you get some Green Poison Fasts that look as good as this guy’s:
