Would Aladdin's Skunk (Skunk #1) grow alright in a humid outdoor climate?

[childofmelee]

Just wondering if the original Skunk #1 would grow well outdoors in a humid climate compared to other strains. I'm keen to grow this strain but I'm worried about botrytis. Anyone got some insight into this?

Skunk #1 is notoriously susceptible to botrytis

Tight buds are usually prone to humidity issues.

I secretly knew this but I was hoping someone would convince me it's a good idea. Damn that sucks! I can't grow the strains I want to grow.

Yes that is true, and now I can't grow Old Red Sour because of that very reason

You could try some Skunk hybrids specifically bred for mold resistance such as Shaman from Dutch Passion or Kiwiskunk from Kiwiseeds.

I'll look into these, Thanks.

Lemon Skunk would be a better choice.Limonene has antifungal properties.
From my experience Skunk#1 is very vulnerable for molds in humid climates.
