Green Crack
Green Crack is a sativa-dominant hybrid that was bred by combining two strains, Skunk and Green Haze. It has an earthy aroma and taste with a sweet berry aftertaste, making it one of the most pleasant-tasting strains around.
The effects can be uplifting and energetic for some patients, but others may find them more sedating instead. This strain’s THC content ranges between 17% and 23%, so it’s not recommended for new consumers or those looking for a mild experience.
Green Crack is useful in treating chronic pain as well as depression, nausea and anxiety disorders—but it should only be used during the daytime because it can cause insomnia if used too late in the evening/nighttime hours. This strain is extremely difficult to grow indoors due to its heavy yield; however, outdoor growers will get better yields than indoor growers since they don’t have high electricity bills!
Northern Lights
Northern Lights is a well-known strain that has been around since the mid-1980s. It is known for its strong and relaxing effects, making it ideal for beginners and experienced growers alike. Northern Lights plants are short, bushy and resistant to mold and pests, making them easy to grow indoors or out. With an 8-week harvest time and high THC content, Northern Lights is sure to be one of your favorite strains if you’re looking for something easy to grow.
Purple Kush
Purple Kush is a strain of cannabis that has been around for decades. This indica-dominant hybrid is known for its relaxing effects, with an earthy taste and smell. While the THC levels of this strain aren’t as high as others on this list, they are still strong enough to produce some potent high. You should be able to grow Purple Kush indoors or out, but it prefers cooler temperatures and will thrive in soil instead of hydroponics setups. The buds produced by Purple Kush have a pale lavender coloration and large leaves that are coated in frosty trichomes—and these buds pack a punch when smoked!
Purple Kush is best used at night since its effects may keep you awake otherwise; it also pairs well with meals or snacks that contain protein (like chicken wings) because it helps ease any paranoia associated with smoking weed.
Blue Dream
Blue Dream is a cross between Blueberry and Haze, two legendary strains. The result is a 70% Indica that has fast-growing, dense flowers with a sweet, berry aroma that’s sure to please both your nose and taste buds. This strain will deliver a relaxing high that’s great for stress, depression, pain and headaches.
Blue Dream is easy to grow indoors but can also do well outdoors in Vermont if you live in an area with warm summers. This strain has been popular since it was released because of its balanced effects that are effective for treating many symptoms including muscle spasms, nausea and appetite loss. It can also help ease insomnia or anxiety when used in moderation!
Cheese
Cheese is a great strain to grow in Vermont. It’s a hybrid that has some of the best effects of both sativa and indica strains.
It’s super popular and can be found on most dispensary menus, so there are tons of reviews online if you want to read more about it! It’s also easy to grow and has medium height, which makes it good for beginners as well.
OG Kush
If you’re looking for a strain that’s easy to grow, forgiving and has high yields, OG Kush is a top choice. This is an excellent strain for beginners because it’s very easy to grow indoors or outdoors. You can expect harvest in eight weeks with these plants and they’ll produce massive buds in a short amount of time.
OG Kush is one of the most popular strains around — it won’t disappoint! The buds are dense and heavy with large colas that make harvesting easy. If you’re looking for something tasty to do with your harvest, try making edibles like butter or oil; this strain tastes great when used in cooking as well as being smoked by itself.
White Widow
White Widow is an easy-to-grow strain with a high yield that’s perfect for beginners. It’s also a good choice if you’re looking for something potent and relaxing, as White Widow has a THC content of about 18 percent; however, it doesn’t grow very tall or have a large cola.
White Widow originated in the Netherlands and was bred from South Indian strains and Northern Lights. This hybrid produces dense buds with an abundance of resin crystals that create its white appearance. The aroma is sweet but pungent with notes of pine, cedarwood and eucalyptus making up the opening bouquet before transitioning into a more subtle earthy fragrance as flowering progresses.
A favorite among growers due to its ease of cultivation indoors or out (provided temperatures don’t drop below 50 degrees F), White Widow produces euphoric effects that can last between two to three hours when consumed orally while experienced smokers will enjoy immediate relief from anxiety symptoms as well as stressors such as headaches or insomnia if smoked during the evening hours after dinner time due to its ability to produce stronger effects at lower doses than most other strains commonly found on dispensary shelves today!
Sour Diesel
Sour Diesel is a sativa-dominant hybrid, which means that it has a high THC content and a low CBD content. It was named after its pungent smell, which some say smells like diesel fuel. The taste resembles citrus, which makes sense given that Sour Diesel is also known to have an uplifting effect on mood and energy levels. While many strains these days are bred with high levels of CBD (cannabidiol), Sour Diesel’s THC level is 28%, making it one of the most potent strains around at this time.
Blueberry
Blueberry is a sativa dominant strain that has been around since the 1970s. It’s sweet and fruity flavor is balanced by some earthiness, which can help keep away the “couch lock” feeling many indicas produce. Blueberry also has a high THC content at 18%.
Blueberry has moderate yields at 8-9 weeks flowering time and grows best in a warm climate outdoors or indoors with supplemental lighting.
Granddaddy Purple (GDP)
Granddaddy Purple is one of the most popular strains in the world. It’s a classic favorite and a must-try for any first-time grower.
GDP can be grown indoors or outdoors in Vermont, but it does best under a full sun and warm climate. You’ll want to keep your plants close to each other so they can support each other as they grow, especially if you’re growing indoors.
Make sure you give GDP plenty of airflow to prevent mold from developing on your buds! The humidity should stay between 45 and 55 percent during this phase of growth, which lasts about eight weeks total until harvest time arrives around mid-October here at High Times headquarters in Vermont—that’s when we get our hands dirty with these tasty cannabis strains!
The flowers themselves are thick bushy nuggets that turn purple when dried out (hence their name). They tend towards indica varieties (meaning more body effects) with some sativa influences when smoked; therefore Granddaddy Purple should be used as either an evening smoke before bedtime or whenever else you need something mellow enough not just get through the day but also relax into it comfortably as well!
