3 Tips About Growing Cannabis You Cannot Afford to Miss

Growing your own cannabis plants is an excellent way to flex your green thumbs. However, whether you are growing cannabis for personal use or as a business venture, there are ways to ensure your crop grows successfully. When it comes to growing cannabis plants, there is a large amount of information out there which can make it difficult to know where to start.

Let’s discover 3 quick and easy tips that can help you to simplify the cannabis growing process. 

Establish Your Grow Space

One of the first steps you should take once you have decided to grow cannabis is to set up a grow room. Marijuana growing facilities are best kept indoors as this makes it more convenient to monitor growth. Furthermore, within a contained environment, it is easy to fine tune your crops requirements to your advantage.

Above all, researching online for a really good guide to growing cannabis can help you to make the right decision where deciding on a growing space is concerned. If this is your first-time growing cannabis, it is best to start small. Aim to use a closet, tent, cabinet, spare room, or a section of your basement. By focusing on a smaller number of plants, your growing costs will be much lower and any mistakes you make along the way will be less costly. That being said, cannabis plants can double in size during the flowering stages, so do ensure you leave adequate space. 

Lighting is Everything

One of the most important things to remember about growing cannabis is that your grow space should be light-tight. Cannabis plants can become confused by unexpected light during dark periods and this can cause them to produce male flowers which contain less potent amounts of THC. Light is therefore the most vital environmental factor that contributes to the quality and quantity of your cannabis yields.

Depending on your budget, you should aim to invest in the highest quality lights you can afford. Cannabis plants require approximately 6 hours of darkness and 18 hours of light during their vegetative phase, whereas during the flowering phase, they require 12 hours of darkness and 12 hours of light. This light can come from a source such as LED or HPS/MH lighting depending on your personal preference. Reflective walls can also be used to complement your lighting so if possible, your grow space should be white. 

Other Variables to Consider

Once you have established your grow space and you have adequate lighting provisions in place, now is the time to monitor your plants carefully. You should check on your cannabis plants every day, so make sure your grow space is accessible. Consequently, be careful to shield your crops from any nosy neighbours or potential thieves. Any lighting or ventilation equipment can become noisy, so always bare stealth in mind during the growing process.

You will also need to ensure that the temperature in your grow space remains within a comfortable range for your plants. Researching the variety and strain of cannabis can help you to choose a temperature that will allow your plants to thrive. Plants also need a steady supply of air, so you might need to install an exhaust fan and a filtered air inlet to aid the photosynthesis process. Ideally your grow space should not be too humid so that it is simpler to control the environment.

Ultimately, growing cannabis can be an incredibly rewarding experience and a fruitful business venture. Just remember to do your research first to ensure you grow your cannabis plants in line with any legal restrictions in your area. You might find that this is the best decision you ever make though, as you could even start up your own CBD company if you wanted.
