Hello,

I??ve been growing for a while indoor with afghani strains, and concessive to say I??ve run into a genetic brick-wall, no-one is happy with the final product of this strain. Anyway this is where I turn to you guys, I??m looking for some suggestions as to high yielding outdoor strains ranging through sativa, sativa-domenint/indica, indica-dominant/sativa, and indica genetics to fully suit me and my patients. Elevation - 2625 ft, frost starts in mid-October and ends in mid-may. Our springs and falls are cold and short, and our summers are long and problematic, being extremely hot and dry (august temperatures can reach the low 100??s around 3:30-4:00pm)

This coming grow season I plan on propagating 14-18 outdoor plants for me and my patients, for this I would prefer strains that DO NOT grow only one main cola, instead I??m looking for plants that grow ??branchy? with many ??tops? yielding large amounts of small nuggets as apposed to fewer bigger buds, Any suggestions for strains that may suit my situation would be greatly appreciated. (my seed budget is about $400USD)

Hello,

You have mentioned that you grow for patients, I would suggest just going to some of the compassion clubs and picking up some top quality clones there. All you need to do is show your legal and they will help you.

This will be a much easier, faster, and cheaper. With all the cash you will save on seeds you can purchase an indoor set-up to keep all of your mothers alive, then you can plant your crop outdoor from clones. Your plants will have the oportunity to grow bigger and bulkier since they are starting from clone.

Hope this helps.

Peace

Sorry,

I forgot to mention the strain of choice (by some).

I would suggest picking up some clones of Trainwreck from the clubs. This plant is reported to do quite well outdoors, it has a killer high, with a medium to upper-medium yield.

You can force any plant to grow bushy with many tops by topping the plant throughout the veg cycle. This is another plus for Trainwreck. This plant is very vigorous, you will see almost no "down-time" after topping.

Peace

ty... great suggestion i will be looking into a local club, i'm fermilier with trianwrek, infact a local coop grew 4 TR plants that all got between 9.5 and 16 feet tall and they were beatuful, but the plants never finished before the first frost, the smoke still turned out ok but the plants did'nt get to live up to their obvios potential.
