Please recommend outdoor varieties that give indoor quality

My guerrilla weed has less bag appeal than grow-tent weed. Top strains give me dark green UV-toughened buds which have 50% more hay/straw smoke than HPS weed.


When I planted gorilla glue and blue dream it resulted in high-THC dull brown, throat-roasting, hay-smelling weed... However, CBD crew once sent me prototype CBD (which was probably cheese or something, an order mix-up) and it had light-green leaves, low chlorophyll buds which smelt of a sweet shop.

The latitude is 45 and the UV radiation is very intense on the plants, resulting in weed with reduced bag appeal: there is too much chlorophyll, the buds are dark brown/greg.

PLEASE SUGGEST STRAINS THAT GIVE INDOOR STYLE RESULTS: SCENTED, LOW LIGNIN CELLULOSE AND CHLOROPHYLL FLUFFY BUDS !!! :p

How do you dry and cure your weed? I grow indoors, and am starting to move outdoors, and what I got this year (one plant in a pot, and one wind damaged branch of slightly early bud, rest was ripped) did not look any different from the indoor after dry/cure.
Maybe more leaves, but brown, harsh hay? That sounds like a post harvest problem. Not genetics.

I don't think it's the UV that gives it the dark look, light dep can look better than indoor. Try light dep greenhouse growing and drying in the right temperature. Certain strains keep their color but some of the purple strains almost turn black grown outdoor.

Up to 40º Latitude you can get very nice weed outdoors. Over than that, it is more difficult to succeed. But usually well grown weed is tastier outdoors. And needs no work like a indoor. If a had a place to grow enough weed outdoors I wouldn't grow indoors.
Here at 43 north, it's not bad, but we also have the Niagara Escarpment microclimate. There are vinyards and orchards all over the place here, not to mention being surrounded by the Great Lakes.

I tried outdoor in ground plants for 4 years and never again. Every year it tastes like hay. But grown dtw in a greenhouse in promix (35gal grow bag) it was great. My unpopular opinion is it’s getting too many nutrients from the ground.

Besides the taste was there a difference in looks? Are you getting a more light green finished product from the promix?

I can say without doubt that it was far better tasting and yes not as dark green. Also better burn quality. Last year was my first year with the greenhouse so I hope to find a nice mid October strain eventually that will be almost unrecognizable from indoor.
45n latitude.

I'm at 43° N and my outdoor smoke is fire, fuck what some people are saying in here, no greenhouse either. I suggest running many strains and find what works best in your environment.
I'm sure it's good but outdoor is half the price as indoor. Does yours pass for indoor and get indoor prices?

Maybe your right I’m still learning but is there no chance due to our different natural soil fertility that my plants grown in real earth tast terrible. Even when I’ve proven the cut worthy indoors? Last year I added nothing and they grew like crazy all summer.

I add gypsum to my soil, perhaps your soil is lacking sulfur. Test your soil and ammend as needed.

I'm at 43 north on the ocean. Fall flowering time brings tons of fog rain and humidity and alot of bud rot. Throw up a shitty open end and footing greenhouse once the weather turns.Took me alot of time to find strains that did well for me. Have lost alot of genetics along the way so I'm still currently searching every year. Last year the winner was blue cheese from dinafem. Harvesyed oct 16th. Over dried it did a light trim then started to cure. About half way thew cure I did a final trim and jarred with bodeva packs for final step of cure. Came out fire and can get dispensaries prices.Screenshot_20200116-125237_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20200116-125246_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20200116-125300_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20200116-125327_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20200116-125334_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20200116-125408_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20200116-125413_Gallery.jpg

Nice pics. I guess that when you grow outdoors at 43ºN you have to use fast flowering strains. In Europe there are some coming from Dutch genetics that work very well because they start flowering at the beginning of August and they are ready before October. For example, Green Poison from Sweet Seeds, that is based in Skunk genetics. I've had good experiences with plants harvested up to October 15th, including sativas like Mextiza. I live in an Atlantic weather at 43ºN and I get terrible fogs from the sea since september, and I've managed to get very nice weeds outdoors.

Well grown outdoors is tastier and can be stronger than indoors'. Was everything OK in your outdoors grow? What latitude do you grow?
Hell no. I grew outside for years, tastier NOT.........more potent? possible, buds get more mature as they get massive.
