How to Grow Cannabis

Plant Your Seeds

Plant your seeds in our small biodegradable starter cube. Make sure the soil is damp and check each day to keep moist.

After about 2 weeks of planting, check how well your seeds are growing by gently tugging on their leaves. If they break off easily this means that they have enough water and nutrients so you do not have to add more right now. Put down 1 cup of fertilizer or less per plant.

Also, cannabis plants love water, so be sure to check the soil everyday to see if it needs watering. This is important because too much water can cause the roots of your plant to grow in a circle and suffocate it.

In order for your plant to have proper room to grow you will need at least 5 gallons of soil. If there is not enough space in the pot then roots may get cut off causing your marijuana plants’ growth rate to slow down or even die off completely! Never put any type of fertilizer directly on top of the soil without mixing it in with some dirt (your own compost works well). The only way you should add nutrients like this is when you are preparing seeds for germination. After they have sprouted you can mix the nutrients with your existing dirt or even start over with new soil.

See what you can do to help your plants reach their full height (do not place them in front of a window though because most grow lights are too hot). There are many, many different types of containers that you can use for growing marijuana plants. You could use something like an old plastic storage bin or bucket; just make sure that whatever it is made of will not be harmful to the roots of your cannabis plants.

If you want to plant outdoors, good choices include regular garden pots, buckets without holes on the bottom, big garbage cans or barrels (make sure there aren’t any leaks), large wooden planters (good luck getting them big enough to grow a proper sized plant), or an old bucket.

Try using different containers in order to figure out what is best for you and your growing situation. The only thing that really matters when choosing the right type of pot or container is that it has enough room for your plants to grow into, not too much light (if outdoor), and that once harvest time comes around you will be able to get all of the weed out without any problems. If you are growing marijuana outside, try placing netting over top of your plants so insects cannot fly over and eat away at the leaves/buds directly!
