Beginner-Friendly Strains to Grow
Strains whose grow difficulty is listed as beginner by a breeder or a public strain listing. "Beginner" usually means the plant forgives small mistakes with feeding, watering and climate, stays a manageable size and finishes on a predictable schedule. It does not mean the plant needs no care. Strains without a difficulty listing are left out rather than guessed.
Our database lists 461 strains here. Most are hybrids (332), followed by indicas (93) and sativas (36). The lead terpene listed most often among them is myrcene. 441 of them list a flowering time; the most common is 8–9 weeks.
