Narrowed Down the List

Narrowed down the list of what to run outdoors for 2015. Now I need to pick between the last few remaining strains that have made the cut so far. Also need to decide if I am going to grow mothers and run clones outdoors or if I'm just gonna run the beans 1 to 1 until I find a keeper. Anyways, here is the current shortlist. My main concern was/is mold resistance.

HSO Blueberry Headband
HSO 707 Truthband by Emerald Mountain
TH Seeds Mendocino Madness
Kaliman Nitro Express
AlphaKronik Heisenberg Kush
Delicious Seeds Critical Sensi Star

If you were in my shoes, what would you do?

any other choices?? i kid, i kid, well, kind of at least..
i'd probably go with the bb head band personally.

Honestly I got LOTS of other choices haha, I went a little seed crazy with all the x-mas and new years promos. Here are the one's that I had already excluded, but perhaps I was too hasty and the real gem is in what I left out?

Kaliman Cheese Quattro
Blimburn Grizzly Purple Kush
DNA El Fuego
Hortilab StarBud
G13 Blue OG
Kannabia Karibena
TH Seeds Burmese Kush
TH Seeds Bubblegum
Elemental Seeds Mango Tango
and
SinCity Seeds GG#4 x Sour Jack*
SinCity Seeds Keylime Pie x Sour Jack*
SinCity Seeds L.V.B.K. x Sour Jack*
La Plata Labs Quin n' Tonic*

*(As long as my order arrives intact)

Well, if your looking at HSO, their version of Blue Dream really is good.

I'll keep that in mind for next time, right now I'm just trying to decide which of the seeds I already have to run haha, gotta go through at least a few before I think about getting more just yet

I'd go with the La Plata labs strain if it arrives safely. Maybe the DNA one if it doesn't.

All depends on wot the weed is for.......if it's personal then you shouldn't need to ask .....if it's for sale then go for some research and c wot has the BEST KICK.......simples""""""

I respectfully disagree. I am growing for personal use, but my question was not related to potency or sale price, as I indicated in my original post, my main concern is Mold Resistance, which is the trait that I was primarily selecting for when purchasing beans. Was hoping someone on here would have experience growing some of them and could offer feedback (i.e. "I know you probably saw that Mendo Madness is reputed to be mold resistant but I just did an outdoor run of it up in Eureka and it got bud rot like a motherfucker once the RH hit 70%" or "You know, you wouldn't think a Chunky Indica like StarBud would be mold resistant, but I popped some outdoors in Monterey and they stayed mold free even with it raining three times in their last two weeks of bloom" Or something along those lines)

I'm gonna be running the Quin N Tonic for sure, but probably gonna run it alongside whatever else I pick since it is a Harlequin x Cannatonic BX so it will most likely be CBD heavy with low THC. The CBD plants are more for my wife's post-amputation pain than anything else, and I still like to grow heavy THC girls for the fun times.

Yea imo a lot of people r destined to grow because situations present them selfs and action has to b taken ......but it defo takes a FULLY committed person to complete the task..".in question....

Totally agree. Took me quite the commitment to take a batch of bagseed from this

To this

to this

to this


Now that I'm comfortable with the basics, I'm moving up from bagseed to real genetics since I think it may be worth the money at this point. Am very happy with all the choices I made, was just lookin' for some help deciding between em since I wound up with more than I can use at one time.

Wot ever you end up with I'm sure she will be good to you.......put the work in and you WILL see the benefits......

I did sincitys sour jefe and bosses sister
2years ago
sour jefe good mold resistance
Boss sister not as good

Really liked them though
they got the sourjack daddy
so i vote for one of them

stay away from HSO blue dream. Dont get me wrong, it is good. I grew 18 out about a year back and the keeper while good, does not compare to the real blue dreams you see in Cali. Also mold resistance is not strain specific as much as it is more pheno specific. imo. If you need something mold resistant, make sure you order plent of seeds from whatever breeder you want to try. Never order just one pack unless if you are growing something in the IBL category. To find your mold resistant keeper you will have to have a lot of phenos to chose from and you must grow them in a flowering room with constant high humidity. Also while I may have not grown everything on your lists, I know people who could fill in for most of the ones you speak off. The list you excluded carries some very good strains, that from experience I would not overlook unless if Ive personally had a taste of the other strains you are choosing from... wanted to add that my buddy met the guys from sin city seeds last year and was given a few dozen seeds to try out. the conclusion was a lot of bag appeal but the quality was not there. Their crosses that include the OG, has to be one of the most dominant old school og crosses ive seen. They must have really found a very old school and original cut, but being used to all the new crosses you will discover its no longer superior. Also go really light on nutes or hermies galore

Surely the conditions you grow in is more important than selection of bean or have I missed something .......indoor out door im not sure but with WAY to many varieties you certainly aren't making it easy for yourself ......but best of luck mate I'm sure you will have a hidden gem in that catalist of seeds you own..
