indoor growing cannabis solution

What is hydroponic cannabis? The common nickname for cannabis - "grass" - derives from its ability to grow almost everywhere, in varying conditions and different climates. "Hydroponic cannabis" refers to plants grown using a solution of nourishing water and a growing inert medium rather than a soil rich in nutrients. This method could be something as fundamental as the jars for manually watering an inert medium with a nutrient solution. Sophisticated systems with multiple pumps, timers and tanks can require some daily work during growth, as well as requiring more maintenance and higher initial investment. Cannabis growers have used several hydroponic methods for many years as a way to maximise yields and accelerate growth, the two main advantages of soy-free cultivation. Working with private land can be inefficient and trying for a variety of reasons: You may not be able to recycle the soil Susceptibility to pest problems Difficult to determine the right amount of n...

Controlling heat in the grow room The least expensive way of reducing the heat in the grow room is to vent out the heat and replace it with cooler air. Sounds simple right? Well it is, but what most beginners forget is that you can't blow the hot air out without a way for the cool air to get in to replace it. The best way to setup a venting system like this is to mount one exhaust blower on the inside of the grow room up high to blow the heat out, and another blower on the outside mounted down low blowing cool air in. Hot air rises, cool air settles. Exhaust blowers are rated or sized in Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) of air, like "265 CFM". This is the amount of air the blower will move in one minute without any restrictions on the intake or exhaust. If a blower is rated at 265 CFM but it's connected to a 25 foot long tube like a dryer hose, it's not going to move 265 CFM because of the resistance in the hose. Aluminum tubing with smooth inside walls creates less re...

What actually is a rosin press? Rosin presses are used to produce solvent-free cannabis concentrate and they require just two things to work correctly: heat and pressure. A rosin press uses a solvent-less technique to create cannabis rosin, and this will eliminate any solvent contamination of the cannabis end-product. A rosin press also removes the need for the dab enthusiast to clean the machine of solvent impurities. There are lots of rosin presses on the market, but before purchasing the best one for your needs, it’s good to know as much as possible about a rosin press’ benefits and features in order to be able to make the best decision for your specific needs and preferences. Rosin Presses have risen to popularity in lieu of more and more people waking up to the real benefits of CBD, and there are those out there who want to push the envelope even further to extract their own. This is just one of the many uses of this kind of heat press, but generally in 2019 the method of C...

Pruning for a greater yield Pruning is a process of selectively trimming plants so that they produce the most flowers or fruit. For marijuana plants, this means ensuring even the smallest amount of plants obtains the maximum yield. Pruning techniques are often used by professional growers seeking to maximize results in a limited indoor growing space. Not only are pruned plants able to produce more flowers, but they also are able to produce bigger and heavier buds. This is because, by pruning, no energy is wasted on growing as many leaves and buds, leaving the remaining ones free to thrive. Grow flatter and wider instead Another way to increase yield is to "train" your plants. This will give you bigger, wider plants with more colas spaced out. This is a technique that doesn't cost any money and it can really make a difference to the size of your harvest. Training is a form of pruning but you don't actually need to cut your plant. It is called LST, or low stress trai...

Why Transplant? If you don’t transplant your plants in time they might get rootbound. Rootbound means that the roots have grown all the way around the edges and bottom of the container because it is nog big enough. Your plant will not grow any more until you transplant it to a larger container. The following symptoms are signs that your plant is rootbound: Stunted Growth Stretching Smaller and slower bud production Needs watering too often Easy to burn with low % nutrient solution mixtures Wilting Red stems The Benefits of Transplanting Cannabis Plants do best when grown in appropriately sized containers. This is true about all plants in all media, but it is particularly true about cannabis plants. In both soil and coco, transplanting helps promote the ideal conditions for early growth. Keeping small plants in small containers makes it easier to achieve the correct air to water ratio and encourages denser root growth. The risks of transplant shock are minimal even fo...

When to Water You need to maintain proper water balance from the very beginning - before your seed has even germinated into a seedling. Since the seeds don't have any roots, they will die if they dry out, but they will also drown if there's too much water. When it comes to watering your marijuana plants, some factors will determine how much and how often you should be watering. These factors include the size of the plant, the size of the container your plant is growing in, the canopy, the root level, the temperature of the grow tent , the humidity level, and which stage of growth your plant is currently in. A good rule of thumb is to wait until the soil is drying (but not yet completely dry) and then water it enough to last it until the next scheduled watering. For soil growers using standard 7-20l pots or containers, the best advice is to lift the containers. Dry plants will be relatively easy to pick up. Wet containers will be heavier. Assessing by weight is the easy way for...

What is CBD Extract? CBD, also known as cannabidiol, has become the most highly debated and sought-after component from the cannabis plant in recent years. It has become known worldwide for its many beneficial qualities which range from helping people deal with mental illness to helping cancer patients deal with nausea (a common side effect from chemotherapy treatment). It has been trusted by many for centuries and is currently in an uphill battle with some political parties who assume that CBD oil is just like its cousin THC. Luckily, research is proving them wrong. Besides understanding the different methods of extracting CBD from cannabis, you’ll want to take into consideration the differences between full-spectrum CBD, broad-spectrum CBD, and CBD isolates. More on that later. As ties between the FDA and CBD companies continue to develop, you will also want to take into consideration which CBD extracts fall in and out of legal lines. For example, CBD can be extracted from either h...
