Introduction
In this article, we will talk about the different options you have when it
comes to selecting nutrients for growing cannabis. Growing cannabis is not only
a great way to enjoy cultivating your medication it is also very enjoyable.
When you do this, yourself you are also ensuring the cleanness and quality of
your cannabis. When it comes to choosing the right nutrients, you must first
know whether you plan to go with the soil method or hydroponic.
Indoor VS Outdoor Growing
In most cases, all hydroponic growing is done indoor and can be more sensitive
to stress as far as the plants go. When you grow in water it is important to
have these nutrients for the plants to thrive. Nitrogen, Potassium, Phosphorus,
Calcium, Magnesium, Sulfur, Iron, and Manganese are things you will have to
supplement into your water to ensure optimal growth. When it comes to outdoor
growing most potting soils are a blend and have some of these elements already
in them. Either way, you decide to go you will have to have a high-quality medium
for either to grow properly.
Brands to Use
In my experience, one of the best brand names in the nutrient business is Fox
Farm. They offer a trio that has you covered through the veg stage all the way
through the flower cycle. Another well-known brand is Mericle Grow which is
widely sold for most outdoor applications. With this in mind, there are lots of
advanced nutrients you can consider as well.
Different Ways Nutrients Are Used
Now when it comes to feeding you want to follow the guidelines given for each
individual product if you do not you may stress or even kill your plants. Most
nutrients have the risk of burning up your plants if they are mixed too
strongly. The most common way to feed a plant is through the roots with water
mixed nutrients. Some nutrients are safe to use as over the whole plant as well
instead of just at the root system. Again, this is something to closely look
into depending on the products you use.
PH And Other Factors for Nutrients Absorption
For some types of plants, a slightly more acidic PH is favorable. Depending on
the strain you may want to purchase some PH up and PH down to help you closely
regulate this factor. Next, you want to ensure that you purchase vedging
nutrients and use them in your vedging cycle and the same for flowering. These
different products are created to give your plants exactly what they need
during the stage of life they are in at the time.
