What is a good noob strain that has good quality and decent yield? Hopefully easy to grow and forgiving to noob mistakes.

I second what he^ said. BAg seeds are best for learning. Alot more forgiving than 20 dollar seeds

Armageddon by homegrown fantaseeds, 8-10 week flower time, good yields with alot of potential, a bit leafy on a few plants but alot of resin production so it makes excellent hash, its mostly sativa dominant high, almost impossible to herm. great for when you have to compromise. high yield and strong smoke stash, it smells like a lime cocktail liquor or lime and pine, it grows like an indica but gives a mostly sativa effect, similar to ak47 with a shorter flower time.

Skunk.
Skunk #1.
Shit.
SuperSkunk.
Big Bud X Skunk.

You will need to work out your odor control, but if you plan on growing you need to work that out anyway.
Skunk is super duper hardy and can take a beating and still put out buds to be proud of at the end.

"Sweet Seeds Speed Devil autoflowering were developed by Sweet Seeds especially for those who might not be so experienced with cannabis growing skills and, yet, would like to get a good result."

Got 2 free in 2010. Popped them in dirt last year. Hell yes. Very good quality bud and I can see that someone with few skills could raise her. From Sweet Seeds. Pretty decent yield too a 5 ounces.

Order some seeds that look/sound great. Go with a bank that provides decent freebies. Grow the freebies out first, and when you do that, grow out the purchased seeds.

Some of the best product I ever grew was from bagweed. Chem Dawg came from bagweed if I am correct. A bunch of seeds from a Grateful Dead concert.

Speed Devil. Good stuff from Sweet Seeds. Fairly unknown breeders in Spain with some highly rated strains.

This is SD2 like I grew out but I have 2 of the autos to run in a month with 5 other auto flowers for a side-by-side comparison under the conditions I can run.

Skunk #1 (or many variants) is a great choice for a tough newbie indoor plant to grow, but with that strain in particular odor control is an issue (hence the name!).

I would say Northern lights is basically THE "easy indoor" strain to grow, and that's what Newbies should be looking at for a first grow, if they want to start from commercially available seed.

The strain was selected over dozens of generations specifically to be the "ultimate indoor" plant, and in a strongly indica dominant plant it combines short height, ease of growth, short flowering time, abuse and disease resistance (including to mites), and high-potency flowers, with a relatively low odor profile. The line is inbred (meaning every plant grown from a pack should be similar), and also that offspring from a cross of any two plants should be similar to the parents. On top of these benefits, the seeds are also relatively inexpensive too.

In terms of "bagseed", that depends entirely what bag the seed came out of! The biggest problem with "bagseed" is that you typically have no idea what you're going to end up with.

Yes, by legend "diesel" came from a bag sold at a Grateful Dead concert, but the bag in question was probably stuff grown privately within the USA by connoisseurs, not from a random bag of commercial "dirt weed"!

Anyway, if by "bagseed" you specifically mean seeds found in bags of the brown Mexican commercial "schwagg" that appears commonly in the Northeast and elsewhere, those seeds can grow fantastic plants, but I'd say they're still not the best choice for new growers. The reason is that you really don't know what you're going to get. You don't know how long the flowering times are going to be, and at least some of these are likely to be sativa-dominant plants with long flowering times that are also prone to stretching indoors. Plants like that actually may not be so easy for a new indoor grower to handle.

I would have to second Big Bud. Seems to be a pretty hardy plant and grows decently fast. The only thing that I noticed it that it hates high humidity.
