Hey all,
I'm a medical user in WA and I really like the clear/uplifting highs, not super racy, but clean, happy and mellow. I mostly dislike the groggy/couch lock feeling that I get from some strains. To me a lot of these are more like 'downers' and can sometimes stick with me for a few days. But it's really hard to find any 'pure' (I think that's somewhat of a misnomer) sativa strains at the dispensaries and usually the stuff they mark as sativa has some other things mixed in that are not always desirable.
To continue my search, I was looking to start trying some landrace strains. I get that for most suppliers, growing is a business and they have to look at maximizing yields, thc content, etc. so I'm not holding my breath that dispensaries are going to start having a steady supply of what I'm looking for. That pretty much leaves growing my own.
I have 0 experience growing pot and I was looking to get some advice here as to what might be a good landrace (or, if not technically a landrace, something similar to what I am looking for), for a newbie grower.
I am not super concerned about yield, this would be an indoor grow in a closet or tent purely for my own, state certified medical use. Probably 5-6 foot max with a couple of sq. feet footprint. Not expecting much for my first time, but if I going to put in the money, time and energy, I want to make sure it is a strain I want to smoke.
So any advice about strains, preferably ones that I can readily obtain (from either online seed vendors, or somewhere locally in WA), that would be reasonable for a newbie in a smaller indoor grow would be much appreciated.
