1024 Strain FAQ
Is it better to grow 1024 indoors or outside?
One of the most common questions growers ask is whether it is better to grow their high-CBD cannabis plants indoors or outdoors. Both choices have pros and cons, and the best option for each grower will depend on several factors. Some of the considerations include climate, available space, and personal preferences. Let’s take a closer look at the benefits and challenges of growing high-CBD cannabis plants indoors and outdoors.
Growing cannabis plants indoors offers a number of advantages. For one, growers have complete control over the environment, which means they can more easily ensure that the plants receive the proper amount of light, water, and nutrients. They can also protect their plants from pests and weather conditions that could damage them. However, growing indoors also has some downsides. Setting up an indoor growing operation can be more expensive, and it takes more effort to maintain proper temperature and humidity levels. In addition, indoor growers may need to use artificial lighting, which can increase energy costs.
In contrast, growing cannabis plants outdoors has its own set of benefits and challenges. One of the main advantages is that it is generally less expensive than growing indoors since there is no need to invest in extra equipment.
What kind of environment do high-CBD strains need to thrive?
The ideal temperature and humidity levels when growing high-CBD cannabis plants are somewhere between 70 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit, with the humidity being around 60%. However, these numbers can vary somewhat depending on the strain of plant that you are growing. For example, some strains may do better in a slightly cooler or warmer environment. In general, though, the key to a successful harvest is to maintain a consistent temperature and humidity levels throughout the grow cycle. Cannabis plants are sensitive to sudden changes in temperature and humidity, so it is important to monitor conditions carefully. By keeping a close eye on the plants, you can ensure that they have the ideal conditions for producing a high yield of CBD-rich buds.
What’s Screen of Green, and how do I use it for my 1024 plants?
The screen of Green is a common cannabis cultivation technique that involves using a screen to limit the height of a plant. By training the plant to grow horizontally and limiting its vertical growth, growers can increase the density of their crop and produce more buds per square foot. ScrOG also has the added benefit of reducing the risk of mold and mildew, as excess moisture can more easily escape from the lower levels of the plant. To apply ScrOG to cannabis, growers typically start by setting up a wire mesh screen in their grow room. The screen should be tall enough to allow for horizontal growth but low enough that it will prevent vertical growth. Once the screen is in place, growers will need to carefully train their plants to grow through the mesh. This can be done by bending and tying the main stem or carefully pruning the leaves and branches. With proper training, a cannabis plant can be forced to grow horizontally across the screen, resulting in a shorter, denser crop.
