Best commercial strain? (to make money)

Thanks for the suggestions, keep them coming.
I should have stated also that I don't want them to get too big. 3ft is near my max height really. Might squeeze 3.5ft. The Mr Nice Ortega sounds interesting enough. I've used Nirvanas Northern Lights Autoflowering before which didn't smell that much. Only problem was they weren't autoflower and had to cut them to 12 - 12 after about 8 wks. Worked out the same timescale as ordinary plants only they were smaller. I was considering starting 12-12 from seed with a good strain or else some of the Shortstuff autoflowers which are supposed to be real autoflowers that will flower even on 24/0 light. I've heard mixed reports on the yield of autoflowers though. Which method would you guys suggest? As I said, I can't have monsters and want to grow them quickly and easily with maximum results.

purple kush comes to mind, white widow maybe, the blue strains usually generate hype .. hash is also a good way to make money if you grow.

How is hash a good way to make money from growing? We made some before from the bud trimming with the ice bags. The hash was really nice but it was a lot of effort and the amount of hash you get for what goes through the bag is small. Obviously you would get more if you threw all your bud in but I can't see how you could make more money from it. Unless you have another method where you could add some weight?

What I meant was that hash holds more value that pot, If I were growing a good commercial strain, there would be no point not to process a bit of the pot and get hash, plus if its a leafy strain, the trim can be used as well ..

Nirvana Bubblelicious seeds are cheap, but good yielders that pack on alot of weigh in the last 3 weeks, take feeding well and unlike some nirvana strains, they dont hermie easily. i grew out a pack of 10 fem about a year ago and 9 made it to harvest. largest plant yielded about 6 ounces after 7 weeks of veg, and i still haven't grown anything that yielded as much/smelled good and smoked as good. most strains that give high yields lack in a single department but this strain seemed to be overall acceptable, it wasnt strong enough to put me to sleep like other heavier indicas but it was a electric headstone, like i had some static electricity racing through my head.

Sativas aren't typically regarded as commercial. They take long to flower and are taller. Time is Money. Indica is money.
Just grow a kush, most people will always prefer a kush flower for a body lock.

Don't think that making hash would be good business around here. 1 gram of great bud is about 10-20$. It would take 5-10 grams of this to make a gram of hash - so hash would be like 50$ to earn as much money - and then there's the extra work. Here it just wouldn't be worth it. People are used to buying crap hash (that's what most people get around here) This bad hash is like $5-10 but it sucks. Anyways - this low cost on the crap hash makes it impossible to get the right price for great homemade hash.

Buy Bubble Bags and make bubble hash from your trimmings. Once you have recouped the cost of your initial cash outlay the additional money made will be pure profit over and above what you will earn from your buds. You will have hash with varying degrees of quality from each run and you can price each level of quality accordingly and have something for everyone's budget. You will have more product to sell than you otherwise would and that means increased profits.

Im not even going to attempt to give a recommendation on whats is the "best" cash cropper....I will attest to what Brick suggested, using your trimmings to make bubble is a nice and easy way to augment your profits.

Whenever I read your posts they go through my head sounding like you're Alan Ford in Snatch... It makes what you say very compelling , especially with the picture and the quote in your sig...
 
first post, though been lurking and reading for a while :)
I've just got myself a pack of bumgordo from a company called neweragenetics.nl, supposed to be very high yield and easy to grow, just my 0.02$

I'll maybe do a little documentation if I can find the time
Good luck whatever you choose

Haha... Penetrate..
I've been growing Aurora Indica, when I dried it out it didnt leave too much of a smell, was easily covered by a fan and a sensi burner. They dont get too tall, mine are outdoors this year and tallest one was 43 inches. Good yield only if you top them, untopped they dont make so much. :)

just saw a nice thread on tangerine dream .. 1 pound 1 plant !! but it did take time .. https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/418227-barneys-farm-tangerine-dream-waterfarm.html. Might not seem appealing to most but depends on the market you're aiming for.
I'm toking on some Chemo right now (didn't grow it), nice head high, doesn't cause paranoia, super chill, 160$ an Oz is a great deal ! Me and my buddies are gonna keep on buying until there's none left lolz.
