This spring will be my first outdoor grow. My plot is on a farm and has plenty of deer, ground hogs, rabbits ect. Do they come for your plants? How do you protect them?

Here’s my situation:

• I’ve been burping my buds in mason jars for about 2 weeks, twice a day for 30 minutes each.
• I may have missed a few days of consistent burping.

My question:

• When should I expect the pre-harvest smell to return?

I hope this information helps others as well.

So this is my yield from my two auto flower plants LMAOOO. So i learned just because it’s auto flower doesn’t mean you can say fuck you nature i’m planting in the fall. There wasn’t nearly enough sunlight or warmth for these to really grow and I couldn’t afford supplemental lighting and heat. That being said, my babies were healthy and happy and the buds smell amazing so i’ll be happy with the two joints (one of each) my crop gave me and will cherish this experience forever and in future grows. the left bud is my green crack and the right is my wedding glue

I am growing outdoor, in ground, using a polytunnel, organic, no-dig approach. This year, my automatics harvested during the summer heat, foxtailed slightly despite ample ventilation and the taste was rough, reminiscent of old school weed. I know I am not going to get top shelf buds this way but I’d like to have something that tastes at least decent.

So for next year I am looking for auto strains that fulfill these requirements:

• can tolerate heat during flower, not prone to foxtailing
• can tolerate relatively low night & soil temps during veg and early flower
• is resistant to mold and pests, aphids are a huge problem here early season.
• has at least decent terps and taste
• ideally sativa leaning, not GSC related. That’s not a must though.

Any recommendations?

I just moved here from a much colder climate and I am overwhelmed by the number of shops and strains!

Edit: thanks for all your suggestions!

Looking for any tips for growing in colder climates at high elevations.

Sun is so strong here that greenhouses can get to + 100 degrees in 30 degree weather but unprotected plants get damaged from winds and rats.

So this season I went with one each of Humboldt Seed Company's Humboldt Dream and Trainwreck. They both grew well with minimal issues, including rot. I was going to grab thier Gazzurple and Bigfoot Glue as they are described as having good mold resistance, just as the HD and TR do. I also like the sound of Gazzurple's "psychedelic" high which would be balanced by having a nice relaxing strain like GG. I still have 2 seeds each of HD and TR and was thinking of running them as late starters in June and have the other two as my main crop. Now I'm considering trying Next Generation's Timewarp and Avalon or Purple Romulan. I like the price and quantity of seeds as well as trying a different breeder. Unfortunately, I cannot do all of them. I find it funny that 5 years ago I was stoked to grow a random bag seed and leading up to that growing was just a dream. Now I'm envious of all the choices out there and want nothing less than 10 different strains in my backyard. Anyway, what's everyone think?

Total: 19 32oz jars of Durban Poison and Blue Dream. The husband is as happy as a stoned clam.

Hey guys, can you recommend good strains for heavy yields. Thanks.
