I'm just the other side of the border on the west cost of England and I have never managed to flower a good plant outdoors here, not enough sun, too much rain. The rain and damp is the big problem, it's way wetter than Denmark here, in fact, the next valley up from mine is the wettest place in the whole of Europe. A greenhouse is a possibility, and you can flower in them here, but you will get very leafy buds of a small size. Even the ones that grow colas that look of a decent size, by the time you trim off all the leaf you get hardly any bud.

Sorry to point to this out, not being nasty, but the Danish buds are never properly trimmed cos if they did trim all the leaf off, there wouldn't be much left. I won't smoke leaf, hate the taste of it. Good for hash making though and the Danes have shown us you can get some great resin production outdoors this far north.

This is way more than a coincidence.... and I'm well into that kind of thing....
Have not been to knock, but was at Eden just before..... in Ae. Rained like it was never going to stop............ may as well have been standing in a shower whilst I watched the Levellers! Rain running down the inside of my coats arms.... horrible.
I live between the two locations..... used to work in Dalry..... some fucking journey each morning in the winter.... on a bike...... my hands were so so cold when I got there......
Looks like we may have people in common, as well as interests.
Looks like a ray of sunshine on a dark dismal Scottish autumn evening!

haha yeah man how strange is this..? same party and prob met your son! tell him to come and say hello next time. co-incidence indeed still trying to figure out if we know each other or have met. i cant send private messages on here unfortunately as im a newbie on this forum so dont want to say too much on here

i was at Eden fest too man. fuckin good festival! a bit muddy but lashings of acid and gallons of beer and i was cpt. invinceable! had a crackin time down there as did most im sure. managed to hitch a lift down and up to the door no probs too which was a nice bonus

anyways, nice to 'meet' ya all the same man its quite bizarre the circumstances! must be a few fine spots for guerilla growing up your neck of the woods? maybe a bit peaty though? do any fishing up there?

Lots of spots for a GG....... probs with deer and rabbits though..... but I'm well up for it!

Dont think soil will be a problem: I'll grow in the valley bottom, so the soil is alluvium......... should be good.

Fishing: yes, but I'm a bit off it at the moment...... plenty of places to fish though.....

Dont suppose you were in Corsock last night???????????? {Sat}

Any ideas on how to keep in touch without hogging this?

May the bizarreness continue!!!

[Mr Mojo Risin]

I`m from the Baltics,up on 57N..so the same conditions,used to live in Northern Ireland for few years,so I know conditions.Its always bloody hard job,to get some discent herb in our enviroment.I tried out all shit strains like Hollands Hope,Ruderalis Indica,Ata Tundra,Swiss Cheese,Afghan#1 and many more,all you get is pile of salad..so this year I`ll go all the way Auto Flowering..no more september stress,and weather broadcast checks..I`m not scotish,but I think..we need to create some Shitty Weather strain,50% auto crossed with some discent outdoor strain,like Auto Durban Poison..Auto Biddy Early..and so on...guys I`m on same mission..and if one day I will be creator of some shitty weather strain I will share my knowledge with yous overhere..this years mission Short Stuff#1 and Frisian Dew,wish me good luck.

[lost in a sea]

not all the danish crosses made by esbe will be mainly leaf.....some a really chunky and dense, but if you wanna grow summit OD in rainy uk, without bud rot, then leafy shit is the best way...

i have some of owls production seeds, they were bred in switzerland and apparantly the weather is quite similar to the uk, so ill see how the do on our shitty island..

they didn't grow with any vigour, I suspect the climate and lack of any real prolonged sunny weather

I have seen some big plants grown in greenhouses in Scotland but again there was no real bud production
just large leafy plants with very little bud, so has anyone found a strain that works in our shitty climate

OP

Hey OP,
Well I tried to take ah look for you and found these.
Getting alot of feed back on autos of course, but got alot of good feed back on Serious Chronic & Kali Mist.
Mandala also shows promise, would be nice to cross some landraces w/great qualities to a ruderalis.

Personally, I think you'll find more than 1 great option from Zenseeds. They also have the Leb27 which is labeled Leb 30, early durban, a fav Hazed Erdpurt & Royal Dane, & a lowryder.

Hope this works man, from what I read, I'd "F" that up if I wasn't checking on them atleast once a week. That's way more frequent than here in the states.

Goodluck OP, you'll find one. Wishin ya luck!
