What makes an easy growing cannabis strain?

If you’re growing your crop outdoors, generally speaking your want a hardy Indica to withstand the elements. And if you’re looking to grow a Durban Poison in KwaZulu-Natal it is bound to do well. Finding strains perfect for your outdoor climate can become tricky. Let’s look at some outdoor Indicas.

Easiest Indicas!

Let’s kick it off with the Iron Lady!

The old, and easiest Thatcher is one heavy Indica strain. Boasting a 95% dominance, she’s nearly completely Indica.

This means the high will be a relaxed and dreamy one. So, if you’re looking for the true Indica couchlock experience, call up the Maggie.

She’s also a very easy cannabis seed to grow, with a thick plant profile. The flavour is pungently sweet, with some spicy aromas.

The Iron Lady is available in feminized or auto-flowering strains. Then the next strain to try is the Queen! The Queen of Sheba!

The African goddess is an Indica that has her followers wrapped around Her Highness’s little finger.

With a 85% Indica ratio, she’s also bound to create calm wherever she is enjoyed.

From seed, you can as usual expect a bushy plant to grow. With flowering starting somewhere around the 9-week mark.

As she is a sherbet-based strain, you can be sure to pick up on the exotic, fruity aromas of melon and mango.

The Queen is available in feminized and auto-flowering cannabis seed strains. Also, as a rule of thumb, growing auto-flowering strains is far easier than feminized – as it goes strain to flowering.

More Indicas!

Then a classic we’ve all loved is White Widow!

White Widow is a heavy hitter in regards to THC content with an average composition of 20%. Its white, crystal resin-covered buds should be a warning of its potency.

With a growing period of around 11 weeks, it also requires minimal maintenance. It’s suggested to be a great first-time crop for newbies.

It also delivers a heavy yield. If you are concerned with temperature, it’s not an issue with this tough girl. She grows outside comfortably in the UK. Also, it is a mould-resistant strain. \

This being said, it will perform better in warmer climates!

So, now that we’ve covered the easiest Indicas let’s focus on Sativas!
