Growing Cannabis at Home Guide
Growing cannabis at home is a great way to have complete control over the quality and quantity of your cannabis. Whether you're a medical patient worried about the FDA's new guidelines on CBD or a recreational user who wants to grow their own premium flower, this guide will give you a quick overview of what you need to know to get started.
In this article, we'll briefly cover the following essential aspects of home-growing cannabis:
- Grow Set Up
- Source High-Quality Seeds
- Grow Environment
- Plant Development
- Harvest
Indoor vs. Outdoor Set Ups
Before starting, you must decide whether to grow your cannabis indoors or outdoors. Each option has its pros and cons.
Indoor growing allows for increased cannabinoid and terpene production, greater discretion, and more control over environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and lighting.
On the other hand, outdoor growing provides higher yields and is less expensive.
Finding High-Quality Cannabis Seeds
The source of your cannabis seeds will significantly impact the quality of your harvest. Therefore, when choosing seeds, you will need to consider your goals.
If you're looking for recreational marijuana, you'll need to find seeds that produce plants with high THC content. However, if you're a medical patient looking for pain relief or other health benefits, you may want to consider high-CBD and low-THC strains.
Additionally, you should also look for high germination rates and stable genetics. High germination rates ensure your seeds sprout, while stable genetics produce consistent results.
Optimizing Your Grow Environment
Cultivating premium cannabis requires a carefully optimized environment. Whether you are growing indoors or outdoors, consider the following environmental factors.
Temperature and humidity - For optimal growth, your grow environment should have a temperature range of 65-85°F and a humidity range of 40-80%. Your exact temperature and humidity levels are dependent on your seeds.
Light - You'll need to provide your plants with the right type and amount of light. High-pressure sodium (HPS) and metal halide (MH) bulbs are popular choices for indoor grow lights. If you are growing outdoors, you must ensure you maximize the sun and that your seed's genetics reflect your geographic location.
Nutrients - You can choose between organic and synthetic nutrients. Organic nutrients come from natural sources and are often more expensive but can produce more flavorful buds. Synthetic nutrients are cheaper but can produce larger yields.
Watering - Overwatering can drown your plants, while underwatering can cause them to wilt and die. To avoid these problems, you must water your plants according to their needs and ensure the soil is well-draining.
Plant Development
Cannabis plants go through three stages of development:
- Seedling
- Vegetative
- Flower
Your plants will need gentle care and low lighting during the seedling stage. During veg, plants require a nitrogen-heavy nutrient regimen to encourage root, leaf, and branch development. Finally, plants will need less nitrogen and more phosphorus and potassium to produce buds during the flowering stage.
Harvest
Harvesting cannabis can be the most rewarding part of growing. Your plants are typically ready to be picked, dried, and trimmed once the trichomes appear milky white.
