Choosing Strain

Hello,
I am planning my first outside grow, I don't know much about growing cannabis since all i know is theoretical, not to much knowledge, and I never even seen a plant in real life.
Since I don't know much I think it is best if someone who does know a thing or two about growing cannabis can help me reach a decision for the strain.
I will try to provide as much detail as possible to help you figure out what would be the smartest seed to choose to grow, if you do have an answer, I would appreciate it if you can give me the site where i can find the specific seed considering it is possible to get it from there (need a discreet site since ordering seeds is illegal in Israel, someone that ships worldwide, and a site that will not rip me off of course, if the site is expensive I am willing to pay a few extra bucks considering the shipping and strain worths it).
p.s I read somewhere that niravanashop does not ship to israel, so that is not an option.
Since I dont know enough about soil and can not control the time of sun I think that autoflowers are the way to go, if you think otherwise than you may be right since I don't know enough about growing so I may be wrong.
I live in south of Israel (located in the middle east) and my growing place is like 0.5 - 1 miles away from the beach, therefore the ground is made of mostly just sand, as far as I know its no good for cannabis, so I assume buying soil and bringing it there is a smart option.
Note : After 16.11.14 no one will be there to harvest/take care of those plants, and they will propobly be left there/destroyed/sold/whatever so I'm hoping to get the biggest output as possible until then.
High : Good enough not to get any complains.
I have arranged a few factors that I think should help understand what strain should work best at the growing place.
Temperature :
Temperature of the growing place in Celsius
MonthJanuaryFebruaryMarchAprilMayJuneJulyAugustSeptemberOctoberNovemberDecemberAnnual Average
Average of the daily maximum degrees °C17.219.523.726.927.429.531.830.129.226.523.619.225.38
Average of the daily minimum degrees °C7.19.812.315.916.819.221.620.418.115.511.79.514.83

Temperature of the growing place in Fahrenheit
MonthJanuaryFebruaryMarchAprilMayJuneJulyAugustSeptemberOctoberNovemberDecemberAnnual Average
Average of the daily maximum degrees °F62.9667.174.6680.4281.3285.189.2486.1884.5679.774.4866.5677.684
Average of the daily minimum degrees °F44.7849.6454.1460.6262.2466.5670.8868.7264.5859.953.0649.158.694

Rain : from this day until the time i'd stop taking care of the plants there should be absolutely no rain, if there will be rain, it should be small dripping, should not last much time and not a high amount of water, I am willing to go water them on a regular basis myself.

Wind : not strong enough to destroy the plants, should be some breeze around noon time, and around the evening should be weaker wind(because its by the beach)

Sunrise-Sundown Time:
January Feb March April May June July August Sep Oct Nov Dec Annual
Average Sunrise-Sundown Hours & Minutes/ Day10:1810:5911:5512:5613:4614:1114:0013:1712:1911:1910:2910:0512:00

If more factors are important to make a decision, ask and I will try to give you further information if possible.

Thanks in advance

Herbie's has a good selection of Autoflower.... http://www.herbiesheadshop.com/autoflowering-seeds ....I've never ordered from them but I've read a lot of good about them right here on RIU. I've gotten seeds from https://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/ many times so have a few of my friends with no issues at all.

Growing so close to the sea could present the problem of salts in the soil so imo it would behoove you to bring in quality soil.

Use the search filters to find a good strain for an outdoor seed that grow in your climate. If you've never grown before I would recommend doing a lot of research beforehand. Google is your friend...I would google "how to grow cannabis outdoors" I'm sure you'll find everything you need.

Good Luck!

MJ is actually tollerant of salty soil , I have seen lots of healthy plants growing in salty marsh type lands , Directly in the native soil that is once it was mounded up to help stay dry
