I really dont know,

but I guess there's no such thing as a "season" since the majority of the green in the netherlands is grown indoors,
wether it be a abonndened house turned into a grow op or a professional greenhouse. so I think it actually depends on the growers professionality
how the grow comes out in the end. :mrgreen:

but there must be some kinda time of the year to harvest those outdoor weeds they sell for low prices at the CS.
since I dont know if some of that is from foreign countrys, i cant tell the harvest time. :roll:

alright then.
I've learned a thing more.
so if you go end of october/ beginning november and the summer was really good, you'll be able to get some decent gear?

Im gonna say no not really.

In theory yes end of october would correlate with european outdoor harvest

And also some people may claim the cannabis cup will see the arrival of competition quality strains

But in reality (ive been every time of year over the last decade) there is no boom time for quality strains. There is always a reliable amount of good and bad. Its up to you to search/smell/research for the good'uns

Something to add to the outdoor harvest comment - how many here have smoked outdoor weed sold in coffee shops?
If I recall, it's usually the cheapest stuff on the menu, so, not much a do about European outdoor harvests, just saying...
Indoor grows operate year round, but there might be something to the notion that some growers/shops/seed companies/etc.. do release some cup entries during the summer or early fall. Sort of seeding the public if you will, pun defo intended... :)

Had always assumed that most of the outdoor on the menus in Amsterdam was import from further afield than EU.
How much did you produce?
