How to Plant Marijuana Indoor and Outdoor

Knowing how to grow marijuana can be useful for harm reduction, because it makes it possible to know exactly where the herb comes from and how to care for it throughout the process. Furthermore, home cultivation also allows you to save a lot of money.

However, in countries like Brazil, growing marijuana at home is still prohibited. According to the Drug Law, 11,343/2006, when the grow is for personal consumption, the producer must be classified as a user. But this doesn't always happen — the person can fall under article 33 and suffer legal consequences.

For this reason, Compra Seeds will explain how cultivation takes place in countries where the practice is legal. See how to grow marijuana indoors and outdoors in a complete step-by-step guide. Check out!
How to Grow Marijuana Indoor Growing marijuana indoors is ideal for those who don't want to attract attention. However, we are talking about plants and they need light, humidity and ventilation. So, don't think that it's as easy as planting beans in cotton, like you did at school.

Even in countries where herb consumption is permitted, many people may choose to plant it indoors. Furthermore, many people who live in these places prefer to buy. A good example of this is the success of coffee shops in Amsterdam.

Many users resort to indoor cultivation to avoid attracting attention. After all, what nobody knows, nobody ruins, right? So, see step by step how to grow marijuana at home!

GERMATE THE SEEDS
One of the ways of cultivation is to plant from seeds. However, it's not enough to just throw them in the ground, wait and collect a big blunt straight from the tree. The first step, then, is to germinate the cannabis seeds.

To do this, leave the seeds in a container with filtered water for 12 hours. Any that sink will be good for planting. After that, place them on a paper towel and discard the rest.

KEEP ON A MOIST SURFACE
Place seeds ideal for growing on a damp surface. It can be a paper towel or a multipurpose cloth like Perfex. Ideally, it should be able to retain moisture, without becoming soggy.

Therefore, rinse under running water until it is very wet to the touch, but without excess. Place the paper on a plate and place the seeds on it.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT SEED

Choosing the seed is crucial for good marijuana cultivation. Choose a quality seed of a species that meets your needs.

GERMINATION

To germinate the seeds, moisten a piece of paper towel and place the seeds on it. Cover with another piece of paper towel and moisten again. Leave in a dark, damp place. Check the paper's humidity daily and spray with water when necessary.

PLANT THE SEEDS

Once the seeds germinate, transfer them to pots with organic soil. Make a hole in the soil and place the seed with the root facing in. Cover with soil and do not compact the soil.

CONTROL THE TEMPERATURE

Keep plants in a controlled environment, with a temperature between 21°C and 29°C. Use a homemade greenhouse to control the environment.

ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING

Marijuana plants need controlled artificial lighting. Invest in grow lights that allow you to adjust the light between 18 and 24 hours a day.

WATER FREQUENTLY

Keep the soil always moist, watering once or twice a day. Check the moisture with the finger test.

WAIT FOR FLOWERING

Flowering time varies from species to species. Keep the temperature controlled and the plants under artificial lighting until harvest.

BEWARE OF THE SMELL

Marijuana flowering releases a strong smell. Use an activated carbon filter to minimize odor.

HARVEST, DRY AND CURE

Harvesting can be done randomly. Dry the buds in a cool, dark, low-humidity place for about two weeks.

How to Grow Marijuana Outdoors
Outdoor growing of marijuana may be an option for some people. For example, in places like Uruguay, which is one of the countries that legalized marijuana. However, this form of cultivation can attract a lot of attention .
Additionally, because they are sensitive plants, in certain regions, marijuana plants may die due to weather or humidity. So, see the steps for growing marijuana outside your home!

1. PLANT BY SEEDLINGS
Another way to plant marijuana is by cuttings, or clones. This technique can be used for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. To do this, you need to take cuttings from the mother plant, which must be female. Cloning planting allows for faster growth .
To find out which herb to plant, see our post about marijuana species.

2. REMOVE THE STAKES
In a female plant, which is one that has white “hairs” that appear between the nodes, you must remove a seedling. The cut must be made at the base of the branch and must be made in a horizontal direction.

Each seedling should be no longer than 10 centimeters. Remove the lower leaves so that only the stem is left.

3. WAIT TO GET ROOTS
The seedling can remain in a container with mineral water until it takes root. You can add a very diluted fertilizer so that the plant creates stronger roots. Spray the seedlings occasionally so that the leaves also receive moisture.
After the roots emerge, transfer to a pot using the same techniques as indoor planting.

4. TAKE CARE OF LIGHT, TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When planting outdoors, you need to be very aware of the temperature and sun. After all, any excess can kill your entire production.
In these cases, it is possible to resort to screens and shades . These materials help control light and temperature.

Those who want a shorter flowering period and generate automatic seeds can resort to planting cannabis ruderalis.

5. WAIT FOR FLOWERING AND HARVEST
Now just follow the steps and care you have already seen until the harvest period. Remember that the soil must always stay moist. Furthermore, pay close attention to all the variations in the environment your production is in so as not to lose all of your home grow !
