Consider plants like you do pets making sure they have the care they need and arranging for up someone to watch your plants if you are unavailable. Be sure that you know how to inspect your plants to make sure they are free from cannabis pests and fungal infections. Spotting these infestations early allows you to treat them before irreversible damage occurs. Taking time to watch your plants grow allows you to address important changes in your plant health.
Make sure you have the right amount of space, quality lighting, and equipment to grow cannabis. If you are growing in the state with a five plant limit, you will need an area with approximately 16 square feet available. Temperature and humidity are critical factors for any grow space and no plant thrives in a dungeon. Make sure that you have proper ventilation and a hygrometer to monitor these important elements. You’ll also want to monitor the pH levels for healthy plants.
When growing indoors you will need grow equipment such as a grow tent and grow lighting that should be a minimum of 1000W, we recommend LED lights. Other equipment includes growing pots in either plastic or fabric, a watering system, trellis netting, clip hangers, grow media and nutrients. When first starting out, the novice grower can benefit from growing in soil prior to tackling hydroponic growing which can be a little more involved.
Starting with quality cannabis seeds is key to growing quality plants. Choosing an auto flowering strain can help you get familiar with the basics before tackling photoperiod plants. You can maximize yield by learning some training techniques, plants are easier to train in the early stages when they are still bendable. Certain training techniques provide the right opportunity to produce significantly more flower and bountiful buds.
Learning how to go cannabis safely is just as important as learning about the equipment, tips, and techniques. When growing indoors, make sure that your indoor garden is safe and secure including safe electrical connections and water supplies. Ensure that your garden is not accessible to children or pets and follow your own local and state laws and regulations.
