For newbies

Beginner varieties can also be grown by experienced growers, especially when there is no time for meticulous care. Such cannabis grows trouble-free on its own, but the more attention is paid to it, the higher the yield will be.

What's different about strains for beginners

Easy enough to tolerate the typical mistakes of beginners: excessive or insufficient watering, temperature spikes, lack of manicuring and others. Many strains are resistant to mold, fungus and pests, which is good both for boxes with not too elaborate ventilation and for outdoor grovelling. There are many autoflowers in this category: their vitality is higher than that of photoperiods, and there is no need to watch the length of the daylight hours - the bushes bloom on their own after the end of vegetation. There are regular and feminized seeds in the assortment. The former are much cheaper, but during the transition to flowering, you need to have time to separate the female bushes, which give a crop, from the male ones.

Which varieties for beginners to buy

• White Widow. One of the best-known strains in the world, which almost all cidbanks produce, so it's easy to find an affordable option. Predominantly indica, densely covered in white trich, with a relaxing, calming effect and very high vitality.
• Auto Bubble Gum. Indicodominant hybrid with a taste of old-school bubble gum. Grows to a meter, suitable for home and street, yields about 350 g per square meter.
• Power Russian. A sativa crossing White Russian and South African Landrace genes. The best results are seen in the outdoors (up to 1,800 g per plant) or when grown by SCROG. High THC levels (up to 22%), delivering a bright energetic high.
