Any grower sleeps and sees how planted cannabis bushes grow at a crazy pace, develop and have an excellent result. In reality, things are a little different. Trouble can happen at any stage of growth - hemp grows slowly, the bush freezes and does not move in any direction for a long time. This is a kind of hemp plateau, the reason for which you want to understand and eliminate as soon as possible.
The information is for informational purposes only and can only be used by growers who live in regions where hemp cultivation is permitted. Marijuana cultivation is prohibited in Ukraine.
Too slow growth and development of marijuana is one of the most common problems among even experienced growers. Any issue requires diagnosis. Having correctly identified the reasons for the slow growth of marijuana, you can quickly navigate the search for a solution to the issue. There are just seven of the most common reasons why cannabis grows slowly.
Hemp plants love light. If its quantity is insufficient, the bush stops, acquires the shape of a disproportionately elongated, as if the bush desperately wants to reach the right source. In this case, it is necessary to increase the amount or brightness of lamps. But the main thing here is not to overdo it. Too much light can also cause cannabis to stop growing.
The temperature regime and humidity must be under constant control. Below 15 degrees is a disastrous mark, which will definitely slow down development, and negative temperatures will destroy the bush. Marijuana growth is a temperature pattern. Too hot is also bad. Above 30 degrees will make the plant suffer and wither, and eventually kill it.
A humidity of about 35% is unacceptable for marijuana. Slowing down the growth of cannabis will not make you wait long. Above 70%, it is also not worth bending over, as this significantly complicates the movement of water by plants.
Seedlings react worst to aggressive environmental conditions. Young stalks are not able to cope with such tests. But already adults, strengthened, can tolerate failures in temperature and humidity. But it's still not worth taking the risk.
Most growers do not use hydroponic packaging for growing bushes. And this means that the root system is hidden from view. It is difficult to understand that something is wrong with the roots. With all that, it is problems with the roots that cause the growth of the bush to stop. One of the most common causes of weakened roots is excessive moisture. Water clogs the air cells in the soil, preventing the free flow of oxygen.
In this case, everything depends on the level of pH of the soil. If the pH is too high (or too low), the plant cannot absorb nutrients efficiently. The optimal indicator is 6-7 pH, and for coconut or hydro: 5.5-6.5 pH. Violations of acidity lead to slow development and sometimes death of the bush.
Slowing down the growth of the bush depends a lot on health. The bush is forced to spend a lot of time and effort to repair the damage. As a result, there are no more resources left for growth. The grower must carefully inspect the plants, promptly reacting to any changes in the appearance of leaves and stems. At the first signs of disease or parasites, it is necessary to take urgent measures.
The genetic component is an important factor. Some strains grow very quickly, some refuse to grow. Storage terms also affect the future of the bush. Old seeds and material that has been stored in extreme conditions will grow very slowly, so it is always essential to choose reliable cannabis seeds.
There are times when you should stop fussing and stop searching for reasons, endless spraying, inspection and feeding. Plants that have slowed down their growth do not necessarily need excessive attention. It is worth calmly analyzing the situation, taking into account the time of day for the growth of cannabis, and in the absence of obvious mistakes, just start waiting. Experienced growers confirm that the growth slowdown is one of the natural stages that requires only one thing: patience. Bushes can give only a short period of rest, after which they will show active growth again.
