Description

Big Yeti is a new feminised photoperiod strain (not an autoflower). These cannabis seeds are specially developed for outdoor cultivation. The Dutch breeding department at Seedstockers Seed Bank spent 4 years working on this new strain to be added to their cannabis seed collection. They selected cannabis plants that were the most resistant to rain, fungus and pests to further improve. This process was carried out in an area very close to the beach, making these cannabis genetics fully adapted to humid conditions, short summers and the strong fresh North Sea wind.

The outdoor cannabis plants used to create this variety are proven outdoor varieties. These seeds are highly stuitable for climates such as, the Netherlands, Belgium, Great Britain, Germany, Scandinavia, the northern part of North America, Patagonia but also tropical climates with high humidity and mountainous areas with much rainfall and low temperatures.

The female line is a special variety from the 1990s, an Early Durban version from Flying Dutchmen Seeds that has been used for generations by local cannabis growers in this northern Dutch region to grow outdoor weed. The male line uses a Sour Diesel selection from up-state New York that has been used there since the early 1990s in a similar humid climate with wet and short summers. These two strains were raised from seeds, the best female Early Durban and the best male Sour Diesel were crossed after a pheno hunt and then crossed through for 3 generations, each time exposing the plants to the relatively harsh conditions of the northern Dutch coast.

Best Sativa seeds for outdoor growing
The result is Big Yeti. A beautiful sativa-dominant outdoor variety that is and ideal outdoor marijuana plant for outdoor gardens. Both suitable for cultivation in large containers or directly in the soil. Being completely at home in “difficult” climates, this a feminized outdoor sativa strain relatively resistant to mould and pests during flowering. This cultivar flowers quickly. In the vegetative phase, Big Yeti develops from small seedlings into real monsters that can grow up to 5 metres tall if grown outdoors in very large quantities of garden soil or the open soil. This Sativa has thick long buds that are fairly elongated but still “open” enough in structure to prevent mould. The flavour is on the sweet-sour side of the spectrum, reminiscent of tamarind and citrus. If you take good care of Big Yeti Feminized you will harvest large quantities of high THC weed in autumn..

Because of the specific characteristics of these cannabis seeds for your outdoor garden it’s important to know that there are also some limitations. These ferocious monsters are not very suitable for growing indoors and neither the best for greenhouses. If you do want to raise these outdoor plants in a greenhouse keep them small by placing them in a relatively small container with rich potting soil, otherwise you run the risk of it literally going through the roof.

No artificial light is needed, no air conditioning and no other energy-consuming means if you put these plants outside

Choosing the best outdoor cannabis seeds
Before deciding which strain to grow outdoors, it is wise to think about whether you prefer to grow autoflowers or traditional (photoperiodic) Feminized seeds. Buying autoflowering cannabis seeds is the best option for people looking for relatively small plants which are ready quickly and are very suitable for growing in a garden or on a balcony. However, if you want the biggest outdoor plants possible choose traditional feminised strains like Big Yeti or the Indica dominant Zmäkdaun outdoor seeds. These strains are very suitable for outdoor cannabis growing. If you consider growing autoflower outdoor some very good options are: Super Skunk Autoflower , OG Kush Autoflower and Amnesia Autoflower, these hybrid feminized autoflower cannabis strains by Seedstockers Seed Company have a reduced flower time and can be planted two times per season.

How do you start outdoor weed seeds
If you want to cultivate cannabis outdoors, it is important to choose a safe method of germination. The safest way is to place the seeds between two moist cotton pads (unscented!) in a sealed container or bag. Make sure you are very careful at this stage, baby plants are extremely sensitive.

What does a cannabis plant need when growing outdoors in the open ground?
After the plant is a few weeks old, it can already be moved to its final spot in the garden. However, you will have to wait to bring the plant outside until it can no longer freeze outside, including night frost.

It is wise to think about protection against voracious critters such as snails and caterpillars. These are capable of eating a young Big Yeti weed plant completely in a day or night. A good way to protect the young plant is to place a plastic cap or large clear plastic box or pot over the plant, this way the plant does get to root in its final spot without being exposed to critters.

Another commonly used technique that helps protect the plant but also benefits the development of the plant is by digging the plant with pot and all into the garden a little bit, this way the plant is not stressed by repotting. Another big advantage of partly burying the plant with it’s container is that you can easily create a raised bed. Especially if you do this with our fabric Grow pots, you create a breathable elevation, which is very good for the plant because it likes to absorb oxygen through its roots.

How to handle watering?
During growth, it is important for a plant to have sufficient access to water and nutrients, but it is not at all bad if the soil is also regularly a little dry. It is best to check with your fingers a few centimetres deep into the soil every day. If the soil feels moist, you don’t need to do anything. If the soil feels bone-dry, water it, give it plenty, especially if the plant is already large. With large plants it is really necessary to regularly give extra water, especially in hot sunny weather.
