The Beginner’s Guide to Growing Cannabis

Why I started growing cannabis

• save money & time – compared to buying cannabis, growing is much cheaper easier for me
• health reasons – I use medical marijuana for epilepsy
• stealth – never have to bring cannabis in from outside the home
• personal safety – no need to deal with drug dealers or other shady sources to get cannabis
• consistent supply – never run out!
• higher quality cannabis & choice of strains – produce exactly what you want

Before you start growing, it’s important that you understand your local laws. If you live in the USA, this website may help.

Cannabis is a weed in the wild that adapts to many climates. Cannabis plants can actually be really easy to grow if you have the right information and know what to do. It can seem impossible to get started if it’s your first time growing, but this website will walk you through everything. That way you grow weed like this!

Growing Cannabis Basic

Cannabis plants are weeds with simple needs. Your cannabis plants will grow as long as you give them the right amount of the following resources..

In order to thrive and grow, your weed needs…

1. Light (brightness has a huge effect on yields)
2. Air (fresh air with a slight breeze is best)
3. Grow Medium (place to grow, soil isn’t your only choice)
4. Temperature (room temperature or a little warmer is perfect during the day, cannot stand freezing at night)
5. Nutrients (start at half as much as what’s recommended on the package)
6. Water (maintain pH for best results, soil likes 6 – 7 pH & hydro likes 5.5 – 6.5 pH)

Whether growing marijuana plants indoors or outdoors, you must ensure that it gets the proper amount of these six resources. Cannabis plants reward you with big “colas” (long, fat buds)!

Suggestion: Harvest Your First Plant Before Trying Any Experiments

You don’t want to lose your entire crop to something that has already been tried before and proven not to work, so make sure you do a little research and experiment with caution and moderation.

Another common problem new growers have is the tendency to skip crucial steps like maintaining a proper pH or getting the right kind of nutrients. While you can get lucky and succeed at growing weed without taking these steps, you are a lot more likely to end up plants that die or just never produce any buds.

It can actually be really easy to grow marijuana with the right info. It’s like growing any other plant. You follow a proven set of steps, and before you know it, you’ll be harvesting your first buds.
