How To Grow The Best Medical Marijuana

 Fill a large container with water ( three to five gallons ) let it sit uncovered for two days outside. This allows chlorine and other potentially harmful chemicals to escape. Now add a good liquid fertilizer. Take 5 to 10 quality seeds and place them in a cup of this water. Notice that the seeds are floating. Allow the seeds to absorb water. Let them soak for 2 days in a warm dark place. Check seeds if any are still floating “toss’em” they are no good. Take the good seeds and place on a wet paper towel.

  Get some paper cups and poke holes in the bottom for drainage. Fill them with a high quality plant soil of your choice, add water and let sit. Make sure the water has completely soaked the soil. Place a single sprouted seed point end down in each cup. Label cup if your using different types of seeds Place cups in a warm moist place (hot water closet) for 3 to 4 days. Now setup your grow lights, they should hang approximately 10 inches above the cups for now. Lights should be on for 20 hours off for 4 hours, don’t change the cycle yet this will stress the plant. The seeds should start sprouting in about 4 to 5 days water them every three days or so don’t let them dry out. Let grow for 3 weeks at that lighting cycle. After that cycle, cut the lighting back to 16 hours on 8 hours off. Now get more aggressive on cutting back the lighting 12 on 12 off for two weeks.

 Now your plants should start showing there sex , females will have little white hairs, the males will have little green balls. “Throw the male plants away” ( unless you want to produce seeds ) When the buds start weighing the limbs down cut the lighting back even more to 10 hours on 14 hours off this will trick the plant into thinking it needs to put all its growth into the seeds, but it has no seeds. Doing this will make the THC content very high.

 When all the hairs start to turn “dark red” your ready to harvest, pull the plants out shake off dirt from roots and hang upside down in a warm dry place. Most lighting can be found on the internet the best for indoor growing lamp use a metal halide lamp.
