Marijuana Growing Nutrients

Outdoor cultivation of medical marijuana, the easy way, Part II

Congratulations, you've made great progress in the planning stages of your growing medical marijuana. You have checked the laws in your state, stored seeds "skunk" Amsterdam, the map of the sun tend your garden, your soil plots which tested at a pH of 6.0, and there is a cock water pipe w / nearby. Sun, soil, seeds, and water were the basics of Part I. Part II will consider other issues involved with medical marijuana growing success.

garden pests can be, well, the parasites! Most insects cruise through your patch are harmless and some are garden-friendly, such as ladybugs. We have since decided that the strain of increasing choice would Indica skunk or plants - there are no moving the parasite known as whiteflies, enemy more of a gardener. Once your plants grow leaves, periodically check the underside of tiny whiteflies. They can stay there, or fly hundreds (infection)

but their eggs do damage to the plant. The best remedy is what the commercial producers, Encarsia Formosa - an insect predator. Find 24. Delivery Encarsia bands and hang them in your garden. Whitefly is not a chance. You can also use an insecticidal soap, but it is not as effective in my opinion. If nothing is done, whiteflies erase your crops.

The fertilizer mixture which is our most common nutrients are nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium, with traces of some slightest sound. If you need to use fertilizer, receive a package that has numbers on the front as these, 20-30-40. These are the percentages of nutrients over pre. Fertilize in early with this mixture inorganic. If you are not really known, to avoid concentrated formulas, areas of composting are to grow up too. Many people do not fertilize at the beginning of the season, which is what I recommend. In their joy to enrich the soil, and growth of buds record size, many people eventually burn (kill) the plants with fertilizer. Only damage with fertilizer at the beginning, or if the plants are green rich color of yellowing. slow growth or damping sheets may indicate a need for liquid nutrients. If you're experienced, you can fertilize the pre-season, mid, and during flowering. In Cali, just let them grow naturally.

The final area of concern is, thinning plants. There are several schools of thought on this subject. One, what ever you sow or plant, just leave the crop growing. For your first garden of medicinal marijuana, I think it's easier and better. This way you do not care about male or female plant identification, you get a chance to perhaps see the differences, and finally - if there are two sexes present - obtain seeds coming from your own production, which is indigenous to your region. Basically, you're on the road to creating your own strain of medical marijuana, how exciting! Second, if you have an abundance of seeds, or easy access to seeds, cut the male plants (do not pull them up, roots can affect other plants) as soon as you know their sex. This will give more space than females, more, now that the female will be seedless, or sinsemilla, which many people prefer. Do not throw men because they are more psycho-active and can be dried for use.

Finally, remember, Cannabis Indica is basically a weed, and we all know how easy it is to weed growth. Joyce
