Need Advice On SOG strains

i am pretty new to the grow scene and am just about to finish my first grow within a month or so, not quite sure how long its going to take since this is a sativa dominant strain. i dont know exactly what strain im growing cause its some bag seed from a Oz of haze i picked up a while back.first the basics, i have 2 grow locations and am interested in trying SOG at one to see if this growing style works for me.

first the basics:

Location A:

8'x16' room
580cfm inline fan and scrubber
400W MH for veg (plants toward outer edges stretched alot)
1400W HPS for flowering
5 gallon soil buckets (black gold)
Botanicare Grow, Bloom, Liquid Karma, Cal-Mag, Sweet, & Hydroplex

future plans:
switch to 2 1000W bulbs
hydro DWC buckets
CO2 burner

i have 2 grow locations but have only used one so far. location A is a 8x16 room but i am currently only growing 11 plants there. vegged under 400w MH and am now using 1400w HPS. the plants were vegged for almost 2 months then switched to 12/12. im having a bit of a problem now that the plants are well into the flowering phase, the ones grown toward the outside under the MH stretched and are now twice as tall as the ones directly under the MH. being a sativa i know they can get quite tall, the short ones are about 4 feet now (easy to maintain) but the stretched plants are approaching 7-8 feet and still growing. i have already had to start LST on the upper part of the plants to keep them under the light since i cant lift it any higher. for my next grow i plan on picking up some new seeds with known quality genetics (probably a haze varient again) and vegging with a 1000w MH to avoid stretching.


Location B: (not ready yet)

4'x4'x7' Hydrohut closet
1000w MH and HPS
200cfm fan and scrubber

future plans:
ebb and flow table
CO2 burner



now as for location B im not totally sure how im going to grow. i want to try SOG but dont know what strains are best, the seed sites have so many different strains without much info. i plan on using soil this time also but after this soil SOG grow im switching to hydro. from my research on the subject it seems quality indica strains are better suited for SOG and yield about twice as much as a quality sativa. i purchased the grow closet because i have a feeling im going to end up doing the sog with some super stinky kush or something and figured the closet + a good vent and scrubber would kill the smell. if all works out and the smell is contained then i plan on purchasing multiple grow closets and link the ventilation systems so i can have a nice sized grow without the smell getting out. i've never even tried covering up the smell of real pungeant strains before, is the grow closet + scrubber enough?

what strains do u guys recommend and where can i safely order them? please post links to where i can order and also research the strains.

traits i perfer: (in order of importance)
1. yield (higher the better)
2. potentcy (higher the better)
3. odor (would perfer mild odor)
4. speed (fast growing strains are a +)

BTW.....what are some good SOG oriented forums to read up on?

This is the best place I've found so far. I've bought/flowered most of the strains

The top44 really is a fast flowering strain...makes it so you can squeeze in an extra couple of harvests a year.

My fave is PPP. It's a sativa and takes a longer time to flower (9 or 10 weeks), but I get silly, stupid fuckin high off of it.

The super skunk I thought was weak compared to the skunk we used to get back in the early 90's.

Both links are for the same site.
