No se preocupe, esta no es una publicación sobre Beat Poets, por muy pegadizo que parezca el título de esta publicación. En su lugar, veremos algunas de las formas en que las plantas pueden manipularse o entrenarse para adaptarse a los espacios de cultivo pequeños y aumentar los rendimientos, aunque estas técnicas también pueden hacer maravillas para las plantas de exterior.

Muchos jardineros y cultivadores al aire libre ya han comenzado a trabajar en los cultivos de esta temporada, por lo que su decisión con respecto a la fertilización (específicamente qué tipo de fertilización) probablemente ya se haya tomado, pero al igual que con muchos otros aspectos del cultivo de cannabis, hay varias formas de haciéndolo.

Si se encuentra en el hemisferio norte, probablemente esté entusiasmado con la primavera (siempre que, por supuesto, su bloqueo impuesto localmente no le impida salir al aire libre), después de todo, es la temporada de una nueva vida y el mejor momento para desarrollar su verde pulgar. Si se siente experimental o necesita un desafío, quizás valga la pena considerar una de las muchas técnicas de cultivo interesantes.

We’ve touched on the basics of growing in soil, so let’s have a look at the fundamentals of its counterpart, hydroponic cultivation. Essentially there are two types of hydroponic cultivation: active and passive. Passive systems use capillary action (much like water being drawn up a paper towel) in order to supply water to plant roots, whereas active systems use external forces such as pumps to do the same. Passive systems are incredibly easy to construct and maintain, though they might not produce the same yields as active ones.

Previously we discussed the various advantages and disadvantages of cultivating cannabis indoors vs. outdoors. Both have their valid arguments, however given the circumstances many growers face (security/privacy issues, money, space, resources, etc.) it doesn’t look like either method is going away anytime soon.

The ancient Romans were some of the first people to grow plants in the sun during the day only to be taken indoors for warmth at night. The concept of the modern greenhouse dates back to the 19th century when French botanist Charles Lucien Bonaparte built the first modern greenhouse in Holland to grow medicinal tropical plants.

Regardless of your knowledge of how cannabis is grown, you probably have a preferred method of how it’s produced or at least have a vague idea as to which kind growing method might be optimal. As is the case with many other aspects of cannabis, the answer is not so cut and dried, pun intended.

In case you haven’t heard the news, there has been an outbreak of vaping-related illnesses in the US recently. The good news is that the culprit seems to have been identified.

If you happen to be a traditional or occasional cannabis consumer, you might get dizzy from all the new methods of ingesting cannabis not to mention whatever the latest bit of hype or controversy is surrounding cannabis-derived products…

Most noticeably however, ruderalis plants flower much sooner than traditional varieties, which is determined by the plant’s maturity as opposed to being induced by a 12-hour light period like sativas or indicas.
