I live in Atlantic Coastal region and growing guerilla and some will be in areas in the forest with not full open sun constantly. Any recommendations on strains that do well without blazing sun, I have no choice but to grow this way.

Ive never guerrilla grew and certainly haven’t grown hundreds of strains but my garden gets more partial sun than full and doesn’t suffer. Wouldn’t keeping plants smaller be wise anyway in that scenario?

Oh yeah but, got to be prepared for best grow. I am putting out a lot of plants and hoping to harvest 1/3. I get what I get and it should be better than getting busted or thiefed.

If it was a dry shaded spot id say deep chunk or x18 as they yield good under trees as thats how tom hill grew em in cali but the atlantic bit sounds like u need more mould resistant stuff like maybe friesland

Is it worth its effort. I read low thc but that is not a tried and true method and was certainly determined under best grow conditions.

The best ones for partial shade are sativa hybreds they get bigger than indicas in the shady spots. My best one was a durbin cross with a mid october finnish. The indica, afgany's, tend to get heavy and finnish in sept when hurricane or rainy season is, whereas the sativa hybreds are still thin and not filled out and make it through to finnish in better weather in oct. Look for a largish sativa 8-10 feet with a mid oct harvest date, a lot of larger sativas I see for sale are now hybreds that have lots of mid size heavy buds. oct 11th

Im not disagreeing with thumper but it’s weird that they list NC frost free dates exactly the same as mine in mass. That cant be right can it?
