CheckoutThe period from seed to harvest depends on the variety of hemp. As a rule, autoflowering varieties have a shorter life cycle, and feminised - full. This means that autoflowers yield much faster. But it is worth noting that such plants give a smaller yield with a lower level of THC.
The life of cannabis is divided into phases. Summing up the data, you can find out how much a given marijuana bush grows. These data can be found on the original packaging of manufacturers.
The phase in which marijuana seeds open and give the first root, followed by a stem. It is necessary to be extremely careful at the time of seed germination. The roots are very sensitive, and damage to them can lead to bad consequences.
A reliable method for germinating cannabis seeds is to germinate in a glass of water. The glass can be placed on the windowsill, closer to the sunlight. Germination will take no more than 7 days.
As soon as the hemp seeds have opened and given the first root, they must be carefully thrown into a well-prepared, heated substrate. It should be noted that cannabis loves a lot of space and light. Therefore, when growing outdoors, the growing field should be approximately 2 m2, and when growing indoors, the growing pot should be at least 10L. It should be noted that you can not put the bushes very close. Sunlight may not reach the lower leaves, and there will be competition for territory between the bushes. In this case, some bushes will be much lower and weaker. The transition from the planting stage to the vegetative stage will take approximately 14 days. It all depends on the variety of hemp seeds.
During this period of life, cannabis puts all its strength into growth. To help reach their full potential, the grower can feed. It is important to know that a full day of light during the growing season, cannabis should receive at least 18 hours and 6 hours of complete darkness.
During the growing season, it is necessary to give the plant abundant watering, the temperature is from 20 to 30 C, and the pH level is kept at 6. If you follow all the rules, then the cannabis vegetation will pass without difficulty.
Growth stops and all forces go into the formation of inflorescences. Daylight is reduced to 12 hours, and the root system will require more Phosphorus fertilizers. During the flowering period, marijuana inflorescences can emit a characteristic odor.
The long-awaited harvest period. Finally, the trichomes have changed their color from transparent to bright amber, and the foliage has begun to slowly turn yellow and crumble. Experts recommend harvesting in the early morning - 4:20 am. At this time, the most THC and resins are collected in the buds. After collecting the inflorescences, they must be sent to a dark, dry place to dry.
The life cycle of feminised seeds is much longer than that of autoflowering seeds. But these expectations are justified by the huge yield and power of inflorescence. Planting seeds falls in early spring. The soil should be warmed up to +12 C. At this temperature, cannabis grows, but the growing season begins when the air temperature is above +20 C. The dimensions of the feminized sativa are amazing, it can reach up to 4 meters in height and about 2.5 m in width.
Long flowering will take approximately 2–3 months. Watching flowering is a separate art form, every week you notice how the inflorescence become larger and more magnificent. The collection of long-awaited cones falls at the end of September or at the beginning of October. Everything depends on weather conditions. As a rule, the plant feels the onset of cold weather and prepares for the harvest.
The life cycle of autoflowering varieties is short, it is only 10–11 weeks. Autoflowers can be grown at any time of the year, but they need more daylight hours than feminized ones. The main question for all growers is how many weeks an autoflower will bloom. Autoflowering takes from one to three months. It all depends on the care: the light regime, the size of the pot, the quality of feeding, watering, temperature, air humidity, soil composition and other things.
How much sativa grows, so much does indica. However, Sativa flowers can be long-lasting. The cannabis phenotype is not a decisive link in the life cycle. All information about how long it will take a grower from seed to harvest is written by the growers. You can study it on the original packaging.
Where do sativa and indica grow? The answer is simple - both indoors and outdoors. An important factor is proper and proper care.
