It’s possible to tell the sex of a plant early, and thus move male hemp plants out of the main growing area sooner by covering a plant’s lower branch for 12 hours a day while it’s in a constant light vegetative state. Use a black paper bag or equivalent to allow for air flow while […]

Indoor cultivation allows the grower control over all the factors governing plant growth – light, water, nutrient, heat, humidity, airflow and so on. When these factors are effectively managed the usual result is a more potent crop achieved in a shorter space of time than would be possible with outdoor growing. Similarly, indoor cultivation allows […]

Once sprouted, the plant starts vegetative growth. This means the plant will be photosynthesizing as much as possible to grow tall and start many grow tips at each pair of leaves. A grow tip is the part that can be cloned or propagated asexually. They are located at the top of the plant, and every […]

It is possible to harvest hemp plants and then rejuvenate them vegetatively for a 2nd and even 3rd harvest. A second harvest can be realized in as little as 6-8 weeks.  Since the plant’s stalk, and roots are already formed, the plant can produce a second, even third harvest of buds in a little more […]

Outdoor cultivation requires less equipment, expertise and labour. For the first few weeks of life, outdoor plants need the same care and attention as indoor ones. However, once a few basics have been well established, outdoor plants may be left (in a good, sunny spot) to take care of themselves. They may need to be […]
