Best Northeast US outdoor strains?

Gibson1972started grow question 4y ago

I like Barney’s Farm genetics. Does anyone know which Barney strain/s best for outdoor grow in northeast US? Weather is hot and humid, leading to quick drops in September temperatures and frosts in early October. Just above’44 latitude 78 longitude. Any info would be great!

Whatever strain you choose, 60% indica or more would be ideal. Sativas like a longer growing season and might not get all of their flowers growing by frost. This is largely solved in most modern genetics, and is why most common strains are a cross between sativa and indica.

Yellowing of leaves during flower What is causing yellowing of the bottom/backside fan leaves during week 5 of flower? Should I worry about it spreading? Increased bloom nutrients to 3ml/l recently but could have started when feeding 2ml/l. Or is this just leaves yellowing as a part of flowering?

I identify already about 40%+ amber trichomes at the top of the main cola fading to 20% amber in the middle of it. Lower buds/colas have 20% amber. Am i just overreacting over nothing?

Yellowing Too Fast Or Natural?I'm roughly 2-3 weeks into flower. Over the last week, I've noticed more yellow leaves than normal. Majority are bigger, older fan leaves but some are moving up the plants. New growths are a nice green and buds look healthy. Am I under feeding or overreacting?

Should i use a spray bottle for now or should i just pour water on the soil? Cause i don't think spraying it reaches all the way down but i think pouring drowns the seed.
