Big Yeti is a feminised photoperiod strain (not an autoflower). These cannabis seeds are specially developed for outdoor cultivation. The Dutch breeding department at Seedstockers Seed Bank spent 4 years working on this new strain to be added to their cannabis seed collection. They selected cannabis plants that were the most resistant to rain, fungus and pests to further improve. This process was carried out in an area very close to the beach, making these cannabis genetics fully adapted to humid conditions, short summers and the strong fresh North Sea wind.
The outdoor cannabis plants used to create this variety are proven outdoor varieties. These seeds are highly stuitable for climates such as, the Netherlands, Belgium, Great Britain, Germany, Scandinavia, the northern part of North America, Patagonia but also tropical climates with high humidity and mountainous areas with much rainfall and low temperatures.
The female line is a special variety from the 1990s, an Early Durban version from Flying Dutchmen Seeds that has been used for generations by local cannabis growers in this northern Dutch region to grow outdoor weed. The male line uses a Sour Diesel selection from up-state New York that has been used there since the early 1990s in a similar humid climate with wet and short summers. These two strains were raised from seeds, the best female Early Durban and the best male Sour Diesel were crossed after a pheno hunt and then crossed through for 3 generations, each time exposing the plants to the relatively harsh conditions of the northern Dutch coast.
The result is Big Yeti. A beautiful sativa-dominant outdoor variety that is and ideal outdoor marijuana plant for outdoor gardens. Both suitable for cultivation in large containers or directly in the soil. Being completely at home in "difficult" climates, this a feminized outdoor sativa strain relatively resistant to mould and pests during flowering. This cultivar flowers quickly. In the vegetative phase, Big Yeti develops from small seedlings into real monsters that can grow up to 5 metres tall if grown outdoors in very large quantities of garden soil or the open soil. This Sativa has thick long buds that are fairly elongated but still "open" enough in structure to prevent mould. The flavour is on the sweet-sour side of the spectrum, reminiscent of tamarind and citrus. If you take good care of Big Yeti Feminized you will harvest large quantities of high THC weed in autumn.
Because of the specific characteristics of these cannabis seeds for your outdoor garden it's important to know that there are also some limitations. These ferocious monsters are not very suitable for growing indoors and neither the best for greenhouses. If you do want to raise these outdoor plants in a greenhouse keep them small by placing them in a relatively small container with rich potting soil, otherwise you run the risk of it literally going through the roof.
Big Yeti is ideal for outdoors, the great advantage of growing outdoors in a pot or free soil is that the grower can get a huge harvest of cannabis buds in a cheap and easy way. Also, growing outdoor feminised cannabis seeds is the most nature-friendly way for cannabis growers to get their beloved buds. No artificial light is needed, no air conditioning and no other energy-consuming means if you put these plants outside
