i cant think of any strains that will be successful at all outdoors in scotland, Your crop will be far more successful in an indoor environment with lights ,or you could possibly use a greenhouse and supplement it with artificial light when the weather is shite. Don't take my answer as definite because im not too sure myself, its what i think. by the way where are you in scotland?

try autos perhaps, in a climate like that a plant wont be done till maybe mid - late october, by then the weather will be so bad you can get rot in places

a greenhouse would be good if you have one? you can get shitty plastic ones for 20-30 beans in woodys or whatever you scots have!. i'm in Ireland and our climates pretty much the same and i'm doing well!. You're too late for outdoor growing I think :O.

you dont ahve long enough to flower anything, seriously

unless your using a ncie greenhouse, some supplemental lights id say its a bit late and would be best going with autos for the last 2-3 months of summer

Yeah that's what I meant by giving the autos a shot!. My next grow will be indoors anyway cause very tough growing outdoors over here!. I'm really worried about mold in my later stages due to our very damp octobers!

It's a bit late in this season for a photoperiod plant but you can check out early biddy by Magus Genetics, it's the staple of British outdoor guerilla growing. Try it next year. As others have mentioned perhaps an auto is the way to go.

u can also try light deprivation to start them flowering sooner... that along with a strain that finishes fast i suppose its possible.

A mass planting of autos. Try to get ones that specify mold resistance , plant them close together to get more in, and plant them on a southern slope to again avoid mold.
