Well i'm doing a bit of planning for the summer, and have decided to do my first outdoor grow this year.

Problem is, i have no idea what stain would be good for me to grow. So i'm looking for recomendations from you lot.

I'm not too fussed if its sativa or indica of a mix of the 2, the main thing i'm looking for is a stain that will do well in the UK, and finish in enought time before winter starts and mould sets in.

The area i'm planning to grow in is on a island on a lake that i fish, its tree lined, so will be be in full sun all day long. If thats helps you at all.

One more thing that might help, i normal go for strains that small / taste really nice, my indoor grow is normal blueberry, bubblegum, leamon, etc. So something along this line would be good. I've had my eye on Ducth Passions Frisian Dew, got a thing for purple strains as well. Would this be a good strain for me?

After doing some research, i've opted for Greenhouses Himalaya Gold and Mandalas Mandala #1. I too am in the UK, was thinking Blueberry and Passion #1 (has a low odour, may be useful and lemongrass flavour), but they're more expensive, a problem if flowering doesn't go to plan and there's no regular maintenance.

The HG yields great anywhere and reaches superior sizes, but might not have the very best taste.
The M#1 has both a heavy Indica pheno (purple) and a fruity Sativa pheno.

Autoflowers and KC Brains Mango (33) have been known to perform well in UK.

Whats the odour level like on your Blueberry and Bubblegum?

lol, err very high, but i'm growing them indoor with ventelation system, so no problem with them.

I've got loads of auto seeds (that i've done myself) so i'll be putting a few of them in as well.

A mate of mine has grown Greenhouses Himalaya Gold indoors, which we quite looked, might see if he can sort me a coupld of clones out.

Thanks for the input people, anymore, please keep it coming

My uncle does Orange Bud every year guerrilla style and he always gets 1+ lbs off of each plant and its really good smoke and has good flavor . And it usually finishes mid to late september before the weather becomes a problem. Also check out canadian outdoor strains they usually do very well outside almost anywhere and usually finish flowering in September.

Here is a good outdoor mix that has some really good outdoor strains and its not expensive. Its got the California Orange Bud I was talking about along with some other really good outdoor strains.
The ones Ive tried are the Cali Orange, Erdbeer < Spanish strawberry strain, and Black Pearl and all are very good quality stains. In fact I will probably be getting this mix myself.

For me, that rules out BB and BG for now then, would still love to try them one day though. A cut of the HG would be a good choice in my opinion if you can easily get one, but Pick'n'Mix sells the seeds individually, feminized for next to nothing anyway.

That Sannies mix sounds decent, has Mango (KC33) which i've seen perform well locally. Even the Durban Poison in the mix might just finish in time.

Check out Pinewarp, Early Pearl, Anti Mould System, 8 Miles High etc. Anything that does well outdoors in Holland and Canada, good luck, keep us updated, i'll make sure I let you all know how I'm getting on. Think i'll try with Himalaya Gold, Passion #1 and Mandala #1 this time round, can't find any heavy hitting Indicas that won't fall to the mould and cold.
