Green Crack
Green Crack is a sativa-dominant hybrid that takes about seven to eight weeks to finish . It ’ s a cross between Skunk # 1 and Sweet Leaf Indica . While it doesn ’ t have the most flattering name , Green Crack is an extremely robust strain that handles the rigours of most cultivation environments . Even more , Green Crack flowers are dense and uniform , so they have incredible bag appeal . While it is a sativa-dominant hybrid , GC grows more like an indica . Not only are GC plants short and bushy , but they also finish flowering one to two weeks earlier than most sativa-dominant strains . As such , GC is one of the best sativa-dominant strains to grow indoors . New growers enjoy Green Crack because it is resistant to bugs and moulds . By growing GC , you can learn the ropes of effective integrated pest management ( IPM ) without worrying about losing your crop to pathogens .
J1
J1 is a sativa-dominant hybrid that takes eight to nine weeks for flowering . J1 is a cross between the famous cannabis strains Jack Herer and Skunk # 1 . If you have ever smelled a bag of J1 flowers , you will never forget the experience .
These dense flowers have a fruity and spicy nose that will impress even the most experience smokers . The reason J1 made this list is because it is much easier to grow indoors than many other sativas . J1 plants respond really well to topping . Because of this they are relatively easy to shape into a uniform canopy when grown indoors . J1 offers a good gateway for beginner growers that want to learn more about adjusting fertilizers for different strains . J1 is more finicky with feeding than super-hearty strains like Blue Dream . However , all you need to do is adjust your nutrient levels one-half to one-third of recommended dosages and you will grow massive J1 flowers .
Summary
In the end , the thing that really makes a cannabis strain good for newbie growers is hardiness . Strains that are pathogen resistant are always recommended for beginners . Similarly , plants that can handle big swings in temperature and humidity give novices ample breathing room in getting their growrooms dialled in . Finally , strains that can handle the rigours of feeding as directed by nutrient calendars can take much of the guesswork out of growing .
Growing cannabis is both fun and therapeutic . However , starting your cultivation career with difficult strains could turn you off growing cannabis before you ever really get a real feel for it . That said , starting with easy strains is a great way to learn the basics of cannabis horticulture . After that , you can work to start growing rare and boutique genetics .
