Landrace sativas suited to USDA 9b (subtropical) with rain and high RH into October

Hello everyone. I'm new here and hoping for some landrace strain recommendations (and sources) for outdoor gorilla grows at 30°N. The weather can be hot, rainy, stormy and humid through Oct and and sometimes into Nov here. I'm willing to sacrifice yields, flower time, smell, taste etc. in exchange for a long flowering plant that finishes after things dry out and possesses the effects I like. The above attributes are also nice, but not to the degree I want to be feeding plants to the compost pile at the end of the season.

The most important criteria for me is effect and I prefer medicine that provides a clean, energetic, motivated, happy and creative high with no ceiling and no hangover in addition to resistance to disease, fungus, pests etc.

Some additional variables:
  • I'll most likely grow in some form of pot/container, but would like to eventually sow directly into the ground, which is naturally sandy with poor nutrients here (PH around 5.5). I will amend, but this is what I'm dealing with.
  • Finding full sun is challenging given the gorilla nature of the grow and the fact it's hard to find areas hidden enough that also aren't under some kind of tree canopy (this will also increase the likelihood of moisture related problems). The plants won't be in shade, but the light will often be filtered.
  • I need seeds I can buy in the US.
  • I like to know the provenance of the genetics and want to deal with people who have a genuine love for this plant (and their fellow man). I know it may sound weird, but I think we impart a certain energy into the seeds and I don't want any darkness or negativity.
  • I have seen pics of friends standing under 15'+ plants grown here and while I don't mind training plants, if they were naturally smaller, that would be cool with me. Politically, the voters just failed to pass legalization where I live...so the need to hide plants will most likely persist for a long time.
  • I have an afinity for American sativas and have some seeds from Mexico, Central and South America, but I am willing to experiment with anything. When I find something special, I plan to preserve it.
That's all I can think of. I appreciate any wisdom anyone shares.
