A List of Tough Guerilla Strains

This is a list of strains that produce a decent product, but are as tough as wild hemp. These are the strains that arent affected by bugs, heat, wind, deer, poor soil, rain, drought, cold or disease. These are the true "set and forgets" and don't require much care.

These are the strains I know of. I hope others will post up other potential candidates for "the toughest guerilla strain"

Guerilla gusto, Sensi seeds. The toughest cannabis plant in the world. NOTHING inhibits its growth. Standing water, no problem, below freezing, no problem, blown over it grows sideways, bug damage increases branching and yield. The buds wont mould under any circumstances. Finishes Sept 20th. A good stone and gaurenteed harvest under any conditions.. This is one tough plant with decent potency

Rudalis Indica, Sensi seeds. Not as good as the GG, but still one tough plant with decent potency that isnt bothered by cold wet conditions, bugs or much else. It just grows bigger.

Special Queen, Royal Queen seeds. Good potency and yeild on a plant that doesnt respond to negative enviromental effects. Nothing seems to affect the plant. No mould, bugs, heat, nothing. It grows steady from the day its planted.

Green Poison, Sweet seeds. I havent grown this one myself but I trust the grower that told me he was impressed by the plant and says its vigor and resistance to the enviroment is impressive..


Please add your candidates for this category.

Thyphoon, by Tanska and Dyr. A danish strain that's all or at least mostly sativa. Has been grown in Thy since the 70's if I'm correct.
Big plant yields quite good. Nice variety of flavors and smell. Loose fluffy and leafy flowers.
Early and mold resistant, grown above 60*N. Good freeze tolerance.
Can be grown in wetlands with success.

Have to disagree on Sensi-seeds Ruderalis indica mate,grown it indoor and outdoor,small crappy plant with very little potency.

You have personally grown all these lines or is that the sensi description of the strains???I find all that crap hard to believe about the Guerilla gusto and I heard rudialis is weak as hay.

Here are some good bets (that are available through the seed boutique) based on strainguide reports-

Good bets for harsh short season Northern or high altitude climates
Haley’s Comet, Flying Dutchman
MDZ Sour 60, Mdanzig

Late September finish
Maroc/Female seeds(some reported mold problems though)
Mandala #1, Mandala seeds

October finish
C99, GN03 collection Good reputation for mold resistance and strong up high

The Ruderalis is only useful really if you are going to use it for breeding, I would not advise it for even casual production of smoke.

I grew 3 of the 4.

I don't know what it is about cannabis growers that make them so susceptable to rumor and so quick to believe and promote them. I can think of a dozen strains where rumor has totally replaced any real facts about the strain

The rudalis seeds that i grew produced tough plants decent smoke. Grow it out and you will see why it has been on the sensi offering list for years. It was equal to hollands hope or twilight in potency and hardy as hell. I think the name Rudalis sets up a psychological barrier to being able to call it a good strain. Grow it . Go over to the sensi forum and suggest that their rud is haylike. You will get considerable disagreement with that belief and the first reaction you will get is an accusation that you havent grown the strain.

Ive hear that Maroc is a good candidate. I wish i knew more about c99 outdoor. I can get a good cut of it.

Ive grown a number of the other strains mentioned and know their perfomance well. Greenhouse HG will mould, blow over in a 50 mph wind and is susceptable to caterpillars. The peaks NB that i grew needed bug spray, lots of water and staking as the plant gets big. On a scale of 1-10 would rate peaks texada cross as a 7. Needs care

Other strains Ive grown that dont qualify:
Early pearl, tough but still needs a little care.
Hollands hope. Water, bugs and wind will hurt her
Early girl. Weak stems
Early Riser needs water

I havent grown any of the UDG stuff. Ive heard good things about it.

Thats right mate,Ruderalis Indica has been on sensi's catalogue for years,I grow several hundred plants a year,northern latitude,if RI was any good I would be growing it nowadays,tried it once outdoors and once again indoors,its not good,how many guerilla growers do you see on here who have grown it?You could count the number on the fingers of one foot,maybe it did OK at your latitude,but further north it doesnt cut the mustard.

I believe you MD the only reason I did ask is because of some of the people come on here and blah blah blah about something they have not grown or especially because they are pumping sunshine up one seedbanks ass and pouring shit on another one.I am at about 30*N on the east side way down in the south and I had a buddy that ordered the rudalis and he got very poor pot is why I said that but I seriuosly doubt he paid the sensi seeds price and bought his from somewhere else so that may be the difference.I looked around and saw your posts in the outdoor strain guide and I see your honesty on the greenhouse strains so I know your straight up.I know all those Gh strains personally also and have vouched for them when possible myself no matter what backlash I get.I did however get no mold on my himalaya gold,and am smoking the peak northernberry right now and the only complaint I have is it did not finish until last of october even down here where I am!

Great thread and I love early strains but we should make sure if we can get good info that it go into a central location i.e. "Backcountry’s Outdoor Strain Guide"

I had a question as well as some input. Some of the strains I see being posted are very early strains Sept 1st or even earlier but some don’t finish until mid of October. Seems like a large disparity in finishing times. Seems like the early strains might be more Guerrilla since they don’t have to brave the elements as long (just an observation)?

I don’t know of any mold proof strains but short season (September 15th or earlier) vigorous strains with good potency (7 out of 10 or better)that I have personally grown are:

(For more info on any of the below strains see sticky "Bacountry's Outdoor Strain Guide")

GG2----------------------------By Greens
GG3----------------------------By Greens
Any of the Freezeland crosses ---By Jay Sprout
Early Riser-----------------------By Sag Seeds(Sept 17th)



Early Season but lower potency and mold problems.

I wouldnt grow these in any climate where humid conditions happen in or around end of August-Sept.(May be in a dry climate they would fair better)

Whats the early riser like Ham potency and yield wise?Any pics?

Hey Bud
Haven’t grown the ER in over 10yrs so no pics to offer but it was one of my first seedbank strains bought it from Marc Emery seeds back in the day. He (or someone who worked for him) actually picked it out for me when I gave him my lat and climate. Those were the days less hype and more help.

It was a nice big plant some over 7ft and had good potency and yield. Sorry no specifics I should try this one again if I am going to be posting on it.

PEACE

I have no personal experience with them but Silverback sold me pretty hard on the Maple Leaf Indica and KC33

Grow bagseed!I've been growing bagseeds guerilla style for several years and always end up with some decent smoke in October.Dutch genetics can't make it outdoor down here it`s too hot and dry.

I was looking through some old seed catalogs and came across a description for KC33, it looks like a great outdoor strain. Nirvana doesn't carry the pure KC33 it looks like, but they do have KC33x Masterkush.

One of my KC 33s would not suffer from drought, the others would have shriveled and wilting leaves and this one pheno looked just fine, crazy stuff. The others bounced back just fine after some water and bloomed just fine with no hermies. That one pheno also never showed any signs of nutrient deficiency, while the others would tell me what they needed with slight visible indicators that one pheno looked great all the time.

KC 33 is an outdoor tank for sure, great smoke too for the long blooming pheno.
