Because of the many benefits of cannabis plants, more and more farmers are emerging. Though they just learn about this, all of a sudden, it would seem that they can’t live without such benefits. Though farming this plant needs to be discreet, still they are willing to go through the ordeal as long as they have a steady supply of it.
Are you one of them? Do you also think that you need this plant? If that is the case, you would benefit by checking out these tips below on the things that must be considered for first-time cannabis farmers:
Space to grow the plants
This will be your playground for the whole time you will be tending the cannabis plants. This is why this should be your top consideration. Of course, it is a given that you don’t have the luxury of space as even if you have a wide front yard, you can’t possibly expose them to your nosy neighbors.
If the need to grow them indoors, you should find a good enough space wherein you can set up the right environment for the plants to grow well. Note that not all farmed marijuana plants generate commendable yields and sometimes, the reason for this is because they are not provided with everything they need.
The genes
Yes, you can play god when it comes to setting up the environment for your plants but when it comes to the genetics, there is nothing you can do. No matter how carefully you tended them, you can only do so much as the result is already limited to the type of strain or seeds you use.
This is the reason why it is important to be familiar first with the different strains of cannabis plants. There are a lot of them and most of the time, they have their own set of pros and cons.
Aside from the two elements you need to consider above, there will still be a number of decisions making you need to tackle. You have to decide whether you will use clones or seeds. You also need to choose between indoor and outdoor farming. You can also make a choice whether you want to have them in soil or in the water like the hydroponics system.
Marijuana plants might have proved their worth already getting the best yields is definitely not an easy ordeal.
