Make a Beginning to Growing Green Gold Cannabis All Life Long
With all the cannabis fuss globally and particularly in America with liberal laws, maybe it would be best to grow your own little requirement. Determined consumers dot the planet and everybody knows of the astronomical prices many countries charge whether legally or on the black market. That is all the more reason a resolute grower has everything to gain yet make sure that no laws are being broken for the sake of getting high. Many recreationists abound illegally but they are playing a dangerous game with the law and that can be very severe in certain countries.
The first step would be to obtain high quality seeds or procure seedlings
How will you come by the seeds? Websites abound that would supply seeds anywhere via discreet packaging or the seeds or seedlings could be obtained from other growers. Feminized seeds are best because the female plants produce the flowers that contain the highs. Yet the flowering cannot take place too early in the immature plants because flowering will be feeble. Artificial light for 10 to 12 hours a day will ensure that premature flowering is delayed. The warmth of summer approaches and the time is ripe to plant with the hope that fall would bring that much awaited flowering before the plants die out in the winter.
Points to note about growing marijuana
- Cannabis grows very well everywhere and so it is called a weed
- Fluorescent lighting near an exposed window or a 250 watt high intensity discharge bulb that would be more expensive would serve the purpose of artificial lighting
- If you decide to grow the cannabis outdoors, you remain at the mercy of nature but that works too and must be guarded well
- Some experimentation would be required on the part of an amateur and perhaps a few ups and downs undergone
- The wise policy would be to grow a few plants during the first year as training ground
What happens later in the growing process?
Controlling the quality of the soil is crucial. If initially growing the marijuana in a pot, it would be easier to ensure that organic potting soil is available. Care should be taken to see that no standing water collects if in the soil because that would attract problems. The root region should be airy as they require oxygen while the plant above the ground uses carbon dioxide. The flowering stalks are plucked and dried to be smoked or used in recipes, vaped or whatever.
