Finding out which strain is best for you is a little tedious at first, but by taking the time to figure out what you want to grow, in the long run you will be glad you did it. I have listed some simple questions to answer to narrow down your strain.
Where do you plant on growing marijuana outdoors / indoors ?
Do you think you would rather a good quality bud, less yield then you should lean toward a sativa plant. Or, do you think that you would like a small, compact, and a strain that will yield higher. Or. would you rather a mixture of the two 60/40 or even a 50/50.
When you smoke are you going to want a body buzz which is commonly found with indicas, or are you looking for a mental high which is found with indicas.
Next is the potency of the marijuana plant, many differant strains have different reactions, for example happy, paranoid, stupidly useless, clearer thought etc the list goes on.
Maybe this should have been first, but how much dough are you willing to spend rather it be on seeds from a seedbank or a clone from someone you know (friends are usually cheaper as you can pay them off with smoke)
The age old question quantitiy vs quality, are you looking for a high yeilding plant, medium or low, and will your sacrifice quality for yield
Now think where you will be growing this marijuana, is the smell going to get you busted and raped by buba ? To 007 grow you will need a low smelling plant, if your neighbors can smell it and you end up in jail you picked the wrong strain
Also think of the taste, differant strains have differant tastes, for example blueberry, grapefruit the list goes on...
How long do you want to be growing and how many crops do you want a year, some guys that are in it for the cash you can find six weeks strains and some will take up to fourteen weeks to bloom. Most strains will take seven to eight weeks. Usually when buying seeds it will tell you how long it will take.
The final after you have picked 3-4 other strains is to consult with other growers, your best resource is a forum like this where people will gladly help you. They even might be growing the same strain you are looking at and will give you pro's and con's
As for now we do not have a strain review guide, however if you would like to post information on strains that you have used it would be helpful. Use this link till then greenman runs this site and it is highly useful seedbankupdate.com/
Good luck if you need any help let me know
