How to Grow Cannabis at Home
If you’ve ever wanted to grow your own but don’t know where to get started, our home cannabis cultivation guide is the perfect place to start. While perfecting the art of growing cannabis can take years and is incredibly complex, getting off the ground is relatively simple.
After reading our guide, you’ll understand the basics and have a solid foundation to build upon year after year.
Homegrown Cannabis
Growing cannabis in closets, garages, attics, balconies, and backyards is an age-old tradition within the community. However, there’s never been a better time in history to home grow. Not only is it now legal in 23 states to grow recreational marijuana, but the resources and access to seeds, grow equipment, and nutrients have never been more accessible.
You’re living in a cannabis cultivation revolution, so start taking advantage!
Advantages of Growing Weed at Home
The perks of growing at home aren’t just limited to having your own weed; you’ll also save, know what’s going into the soil, and you will never have to buy weed illegally or from a dispensary again.
Grow at Home
Growing cannabis can be surprisingly forgiving if you are prepared. Follow our guide below for the best approach for the beginning home cultivator.
High-Quality Seeds
Start with premium seeds with robust genetics from a trusted seed bank. Most beginners fail before their plants sprout because they use low-quality, cheap seeds.
Choose a strain that’s suitable for your growing environment (indoor or outdoor), and that’s forgiving. Some varieties are harder to grow than others because they are more susceptible to common problems. You can avoid mistakes by choosing a hardy strain. There’s plenty of time to try a more challenging strain after you have a few harvests under your belt.
Grow Area
Your grow area is essential in cannabis cultivation, but we know home grows can be less than perfect. When growing inside, we recommend a tent setup. This way, your plants are confined to a tight space, get plenty of dark time, and can be secured.
Lights/Sun
If you grow outdoors, you’ll need to ensure your grow area receives direct light. For indoor grows, you’ll need a light system. We recommend high-efficiency LED lights using the 12 hours on, 12 hours off schedule. Once plants get into the vegetative stage, shift to 18 hours of light and 6 hours of dark to encourage flowering.
Grow Medium
Using high-quality soil is also essential if you want a successful harvest. To ensure your plants will thrive, monitor PH regularly. The optimal PH range for cannabis is between 6.5 and 7.5.
Nutrients
Maximizing your plant’s full potential requires feeding it with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK). During the vegetative stage, use 1:3:2, and once in flowering, switch to 0:3:3.
Tips for Growing Cannabis at Home
Home growing presents unique challenges, especially if you live in an apartment. Keep in mind the smell and security. You don’t want everyone on your floor when you are about to harvest a fresh crop of premium marijuana.
Storage is also essential. Keep your dried buds in a safe, secure, dry place away from direct sunlight.
