Michigan (and nearby states) what strains (outdoors) are you growing and why?

I'd be curious to know what strains Michigan Growers are growing and why they grow that strain. This year I have GG4, Early Misty, Skunk 1, Critical, OG, Headband OG, Hollands Hope, Hemp (for CBD), Widow Skunk. I think that covers it. The only reason I'm growing these varieties is because they're either strains I new I liked, wanted to try them, or just happened to have the seeds. So far the skunk 1 is the farthest along. Still searching for a good mold resistant early strain. Thanks in advance.

C99 x blueberry, Mama Mia, Jack Herer, northern lights x big bud, super skunk and gelato og. All will do a pound easy and be done the beginning of oct or earlier. All from Seedsman. Seedsman also has a section of fast variety. In theory you could harvest late August, early September, mid September,late September. And if you want early and mid Oct. Staggered harvest so not one great big black breaking trim session

cc pre 98 bk, cc gg4, northern lights, snow temple, dragonfruit, lucky charms and unknown gg4. bk, northtern and gg4 are the early buds. Mid Oct for all I think. bk sooner.

Thank you for sharing. Can you tell me what is the earliest variety of those you mentioned? I've grown super skunk but it was not the best quality, although good, and I also had mold problems with it. I may give Seedsman a try.

They are all about the same but C99 x blueberry is more productive. Super skunk I'm not impressed with and gelato og I'd hit and miss. Next year I'm replacing them with gorilla girl fast and critical poison. Both should be done last week in August

C99 blueberry

I may give the gg Fast a try. Nice plants. A skunk 1 bud.

I thought bk Was supposed to be earlier but I've never grown it. Grew some nice purple kush and it didn't finish early but was a good smoke and no mold issues.

It was the first to bud. But slow grower and short stature. Was literally buried under my Northern and a GG4. I got clones and some more fems. I'm convinced it is a good MI plant. PM magnet though. It started my dilemma here.

My gg4 was huge last year. Not so this year.

This yr I'm growing everything from a bag seed (because it finishes early with huge yields)
Jelly pie and maverick from greenpoint
Incredible bulk
Wonder woman
Lemon crash og
Hashplant

Mostly because a fellow grower on here gifted the seeds and wanted me to try them. They will all have different flowering times from beginning to end of oct. I find that it is important for me at least not to have them all done at the same time because harvest would literally overwhelm me. This way I can do it gradually over a month.
As long as we dont get a deep long freeze I dont care if they are in the cold ... as of today they have already gone through a 3rd frost.

Wow! Surrounded by goldenrod even. I cleaned that stuff out of my grow pen when I found out it was susceptible to mold. Not very familiar with any of those varieties. Do you do anything for mold?

This year im running:
4 Gorilla Glue fem
1 OG kush photo
2 White Widow photo (1 was male, culled back in aug)
1 Cornbread (bag seed - random dispensary)
1 Mint Chocolate Chip (herm'd back in aug, culled with the WW)
1 "R19" (Random bag seed from 2019)

Everything is coming along, looking like mid oct will be earliest for me.. front runners are 1 of the 4 gg phenos and the cornbread, the R19 is stunted and tiny, but have some of the best looking and smelling buds on her already, they seemed like they appeared overnight as soon as she started flowering... Wish I knew what it was.


Will try to get some pics up soon
Everyones looks great, they're getting there for sure.

Looked at Seedsman but they say no shipping to USA.

Blueberry headband and a couple monster cookie just because I had no other reason. This Michigan weather at least where I am is holding up so far

Shit I really start checking the side with less sunshine and this what I found,what should do to stop the spread ?

Seedsman is having some problems right now but if your signed up as a previous costumer they will ship

Mac one
First time growing

Actinovate or other brand of bacterial fungicide. Safe to use up to day of harvest.
