HOW TO?

Training autoflowering cannabis plants is one of the easiest and most efficient ways to get the most out of your indoor grow space, as well as promote large sized yields. Tying your autoflowers down, defoliation and using a screen at the right stage can make a huge difference in the plant’s shape, structure, and number of colas you can produce. In this article, I explain all you need to know about the low stress technique, the different types of LST training, how to prepare for L.S.T, a step-by-step guide, and common mistakes to avoid. So, get ready to learn just how simple and highly effective L.S.T can be and why you should start practic...

Mold. Pretty much the very last thing any weed grower wants to see on their prized plants, but in all honesty, it's close to an inevitability at some point. Unless you have your growing environment dialed into perfection and really know what you're doing, there is a disgustingly high chance that the dreaded mold will strike at some point during your first few grows. Don't go into panic mode just yet though. By the time you finish this article, you'll have a much better understanding of mold, how to identify it on your cannabis plants, how to treat it and most importantly, how to prevent it in the first place. What causes mold on cannabis p...

This guide will cover everything you need to learn to master sea of green (SOG) and boost your yields with minimal effort. From selecting the right strains and pot sizes to perfecting plant density and light cycles. Learn step-by-step techniques and discover how many plants to grow for optimal results. What is the sea of green method for cannabis? The Sea of Green (SOG) method of growing weed is one of many techniques that maximizes yield by growing lots of small plants packed close together. This approach focuses on creating a canopy of buds (hence the name ‘sea of green’) and is ideal for anyone with limited space to grow or those that w...

Sexing cannabis (and no, I don't mean getting down and dirty with your favourite weed plant) is just one of a lengthy list of essential skills that all budding weed growers need to master. Knowing how to determine the sex of your cannabis plants (if you decide to grow regular seeds) can and will make all the difference come harvest time, and for a few key reasons. Even if you only grow feminized seeds, there is always an exceedingly small chance that a seed may turn into a male plant - less than 0.1% of feminized or autoflowering seeds will turn out male, but it is still possible. There is also the rare occurrence of hermaphroditism, which...

Mainlining cannabis is a training technique used to boost yields and increase overall plant health. This article covers what mainlining is, its benefits, how to do it, combining it with ScrOG, and its differences from manifolding. We'll also compare mainlining with topping and super cropping, helping you choose the best method for your grow. What is the mainlining technique with cannabis? Mainlining is a method used to train cannabis plants that involves creating a symmetrical structure by topping the main stem and encouraging even distribution of energy to all the branches. Doing this will help the plant grow more evenly, resulting in uni...

Growing cannabis using a scrog net will help you to maximize yield by using light distribution to your advantage. We will cover how the scrog technique works, how to put it into action, and what strains are best to scrog with. What is the scrog growing technique? Scrog growing is a low stress training technique that can be used to optimize light distribution and spacing in small growing spaces. Scrog stands for "Screen of Green," and it refers to the net or screen that you use to train your cannabis plants to grow horizontally. The goal is to place a screen just above the canopy of your plants and then tuck the leaves and branches into dif...

One thing that often surprises people new to the art of growing weed is that even seeds grown from feminized seeds sometimes don't perform as planned. What, really? Feminized seeds can still produce male plants? How is that possible? Yes indeed. Although feminized seeds offer a 99.9% guarantee that your plant will be a lady, there is still a 0.1% chance that they will turn out to be a dude. But that's not what we are here to talk about. The other, but only very slightly more common issue, with feminized (actually all - feminized, regular, or autoflowering) seeds is that they can sometimes produce hermaphroditic, or 'hermie' plants. This ha...
