So me and my friend are just about harvesting our second crop and we are gradiually expanding with better stuff, better venting, better light, better nutes and so on.
At first we talked about some fantasy thing getting a house together, split it in two and have a bellow surface hidden basement to grow in. This is very tempting but not realistic in a near future since i've only been working for about a month since i finnished school.
So now i'm thinking about getting up a female outdoor mother to next spring/summer and get about 30-40 nicely pre-vegged clones and bring them into the woods.
My plan is to veg them for about 3-4 weeks inside under a 600w hps light and bring them out in some cardboard moving boxes around the beginning or in the middle of may depending on the weather.
My big problem is that i live in sweden and guides that is suited for warm countries like spain doesnt help me much i guess.
I know the basics like having a good soilmix and scouting a nice and safe area to grow in but what i dont know is which few strains are best suited for handling a bad week with rain and down to as much as 5-10 celcius at night to be extreme on a very bad week, meanwhile it can be 30 celcius daytime in the shadow next week.
from what i can come up with myself is that i'd need some kind of early flowering plant which could survive a nuclear strike
The strains i'm looking on atm is (rated from the top and down in how suited i think they are for me):
Durban Poison

New Purple Power
http://www.high-supplies.com/catalog/purple-power-p-70.html
Hollands Hope
http://www.high-supplies.com/catalog/hollands-hope-p-73.html
Early Bud
http://www.high-supplies.com/catalog/early-bud-p-53.html
As said above i need something that is ready for harvest nothing later then september, if i can get something that harvest faster and don't lack potency its a great plus but i guess thats a very rare combo for outdoor strains.
Please come with feedback and info, i'm open for anything around the subject of outdoor growing
Edit: if it helps i guess Swedish weather is pretty similar to Brittish.

...kinda suck concidering breaking the trichomes will prolly come at the expense of quality but w/e...i'm just happy to build a big stash until next harvest where it can actually start paying itself and a litle bonus ^^.
