Growing marijuana is a popular hobby, especially in places where growing medical marijuana is legal, and many marijuana magazines have covered different aspects of this activity before, but we are presenting you with the secrets of growing marijuana at home. Marijuana Cannabis is broadly of two types; Cannabis sativa that gets you stoned and Cannabis indica, which gets you high. When you know the correct technique of growing marijuana, it will give you pure, addictive-free cannabis.
With modern techniques, growing cannabis has become easier and they provide seemingly infinite varieties of hybrid strains. While most growers are satisfied with a yield of two ounces per plant, they don’t know that it is possible to consistently yield over a pound, and in some cases over two pounds, all while remaining within the restrictions of their medical marijuana programs. You can grow them outdoors as well as indoors. Marijuana, if grown outdoors, is always under the constant threat of fluctuating weather, diseases, and thieves, so growing them using indoor hydroponics is a better option.
To start, try to get some good clones from reliable person else opt for seed germination. Feminized seeds are best for this purpose under artificial lighting, outdoors or in the greenhouse. These seeds produce marijuana of high quality, flavor, and potency (THC/CBD) than those produced by non-feminized seeds. Germinate marijuana seeds in rockwool cubes and maintain the temperature between 75° and 85° Fahrenheit. If you want to get potent buds, remove the male plants before flowering takes place. This will let the female plants to utilize all her energy in producing sticky, THC-laden flowers rather than the seeds. With this, you will get a virgin plant. Though you can use nutrient film technique for growing marijuana, but the most popular choice of growers for this is ebb and flow system. Cannabis likes lower temperatures and cool blue light, so Metal Halide (MH) and High Pressure Sodium (HPS) are the best lights for growing hydroponic marijuana. Blue light of MH is good for vegetative phase while red spectrum of HPS is optimum for flowering growth. Keep the lights on for 16 to 24 hours a day during vegetative phase. To initiate flowering, when the plants are at least 6 inches tall and have at least four sets of leaves, 12-13 hours of light is sufficient. Make sure dark period is very dark else, it will stay in vegetative phase only. Give your plants N-rich diet during vegetative and P-rich diet during flowering phase. Flush the plants with clean, nutrient-free water once during the flowering phase, again after 6 weeks, and then just before harvesting.
Harvesting time of marijuana is a question of choice. If you want high THC content then reap your plants when about 50% of trichomes have turned from clear to a milky color. If you can be patient until they are brown with high CBD content, you will get a heavier, stoned effect. Hang your marijuana plants upside down from strings for drying in a cool dark airy room and seal them in an airtight jar or bag for next few days. Expose them to air only for 15 minutes twice a day to ensure complete curing and enjoy a smooth, even burn.
