Growing Marijuana indoors
To start growing your seeds, you
will need some marijuana seeds. You can find your best seeds by visiting http://www.worldofseeds.eu/. The types
of seeds used for indoor cultivation are often different used for outdoor
growing. Once you have your seeds you need to choose an area or place to grow.
This can be a closet (wardrobe), an attic, or a sectioned off part of a room, a
whole room or a basement. It is important to plan this step well as the results
will reflect your planning. The more you do the higher quality and fewer
problems will follow.
The closet should be painted white
(this reflects light the best). Better still get some panda film or Mylar if
you have (these are both sheets of plastic, black on one side and silver or
white on the other). Not only do these give you excellent control, but reflect
much better. You can affix the rolls of panda/Mylar with PVC (duct tape). Do
not use mirrors, they reflect light poorly.
Venting
The indoor grow room should
be well vented with an extraction fan (the bigger the room the more powerful
this needs to be). Cut the roof if possible like a regular bathroom fan. The air
also needs to circulate freely throughout the room or space, usually a regular
oscillating fan will work good, make sure it's not blowing the plants around
too much as this will stress them. Venting the marijuana grow room is very
important as the lights will put out a lot of heat.
Choosing containers for growing
Use regular garden pots for
growing, though just about any plastic or even metal container can be used. If
using regular soil makes sure there is a layer of drainage at the bottom of the
pot (gravel) it is important to obtain high quality soil, don't just dig it
from your garden. The size of the pot will determine how big the plant can get,
use around 1-6 gallon containers as a general rule.
Marijuana Lighting
All plants need light and there is
no sun indoors. The light provided by the sun needs to be replaced with an
artificial light source. The growing cycle is also controlled by light. This is
one of the main advantages of growing graines de marijuana indoors. In growing period (vegetative), lights are kept on
for approximately 18 hours a day. If you want plants to flower the light is
restricted to 12 hours light (and 12 hours dark). Turn back the lights as it is
referred to, induces the plants to bud. Flowering usually lasts for 8-12 weeks
and then the plants are ready for harvest.
Temperature
The ideal temperature to grow
marijuana is around 75 degrees F or 24 degrees C. Plants though can survive
from around 40 degrees F (5 degress C) to 100 degrees F (38 degrees C).
Humidity in the grow room should be kept between 60- 80%. Above 85 % and the
risk of mould is greatly increased.
