If you’re new to cannabis cultivation, the biggest mistake you can make is also the easiest and the most common:
Taking things for granted when it comes to watering.
Ensuring cannabis plants are provided with the right amount of water isn’t as easy as some expect. This is because there isn’t an exact science for watering a cannabis plant. Along with the size, type and location of the plant, you also need to consider atmospheric conditions and the fact that all cannabis plants are constantly growing and changing in some way.
All of which adds up to a very tricky balancing act to pull off.
On the plus side, there’s a good handful of universal rules and guidelines that can simplify things at least a little.
How Often Do Cannabis Plants Need Watering?
It’s actually far more common to overwater cannabis plants than to compromise

It’s one of the most commonly asked questions among newcomers to cultivation - it’s also one of the toughest to answer.
Cultivating cannabis at home can be rewarding in a variety of ways. Along with the satisfaction that comes with growing your own, it’s also possible to save a small fortune on dispensary pot prices. Particularly in some regions of the US, where taxation and levies have made pot impossibly expensive for many.
So whichever way you look at it, cultivating cannabis at home is a cheaper option than buying it commercially. But exactly how much does it cost to set up a viable grow space?
A while back, the Marijuana Business Factbook published a report suggesting that the average cost of cannabis cultivation is $42 per square foot.Nevertheless, this is a rather sweeping (and perhaps misleading) generalisation, when you consider the

There’s a lot of anecdotal evidence supporting the use of cannabis as a safe and effective weight-loss aid. Particularly in the US, cannabis is becoming a lifestyle product for a growing market of health-conscious adults of all ages. The right cannabis strain has the power to boost the enjoyment and effectiveness of almost any activity.
Interesting, given how cannabis is more traditionally associated with the munchies.
But what about cannabis strains that have the exact opposite effect? Are there any specific cannabis strains that can double-up as appetite suppressants?
Cannabis to Curb the Munchies
It’s only as of relatively recently that the true science of the cannabis-induced munchies has become apparent. The long

It’s a common set of symptoms, encountered by millions of amateur cannabis cultivators worldwide. Particularly among those growing indoors, the effects of nitrogen toxicity are generally easy to spot. Shiny leaves, unusually dark green leaves, weak stems, clawing, sluggish growth – all tell-tale signs of excessive amounts of nitrogen when growing marijuana.

Call it mould, bud rot or anything else you like, it’s still the same menace that can reduce your dreams to a stinking, useless mess.

Purple Bud
If you’re looking for the kind of strain that combines premium genetics from all over the world, you won’t be let down by Purple Bud. Diversity is the name of the game with this girl, combining genetics from California, Holland and Afghanistan’s Hindu Kush region. The result is a very generous-yielding Afghani-Sativa cannabis strain that produces some seriously pretty plants.
Purple Bud strain grows from pretty easy to grow seeds and represents a great choice for beginners. It’s also perfectly suited to outdoor growing if you happen to live somewhere with at least a Mediterranean-ish climate.
As an Indica-dominant strain, the high is predominantly body-centred, though far from overpowering. Trace her origins even further back and there’s a welcome dose of Jamaican ancestry in there, which adds an uplifting

For generations, the art of growing weed from clones has been both extensively explored and refined. These days, thousands of the world’s best growers instinctively opt for cloning techniques, rather than the classic approach whereby seeds are germinated from scratch. But at the same time, there’s quite a lot of confusion when it comes to the true advantages and drawbacks of cloning, along with when and where it represents the most sensible approach.

If you’re lucky enough to be in a place where you can get away with it, growing weed outdoors is awesome. Why? Well, for one thing nature serves up most of the stuff you need, plus you don’t tend to be held back by the same kinds of physical space restraints. Suffice to say, more is better…end of story.
