Why Grow Cannabis Indoors?
Cannabis plants thrive from spring to fall, but the key is to make sure that they get 12 hours of light a day. This can be difficult for those who live in areas with harsh winters, but there are plenty of options. One option is to grow your cannabis indoors and close the curtains at night so that it doesn’t get direct exposure to the cold. If you live in a state where marijuana is not yet legalized, there are still some good reasons for growing indoors. For example, you can successfully grow marijuana indoors year round. Moreover, indoor growers typically benefit from a better quality product as they have more control over the environment as well as the plant’s maturity cycle.
In addition, indoor growers do not need to worry about environmental factors such as air pollution and pests. Outdoor cannabis plants are exposed to a variety of environmental hazards including light pollution, low humidity, storms, and more. In addition to these challenges, plants are at the mercy of the outside environment which is often uncontrolled. Indoors, one can control all aspects of the grow from temperature and humidity levels to light spectrum and even nutrient availability.
What Lights Should I Use to Grow Cannabis Indoors?
The best lights for growing cannabis indoors are LEDs. They are known for their plant-enhancing qualities, low heat output, and high efficiency in converting electricity into light. The next best option is HPS grow lights. Other types of lights, such as compact fluorescent lamps, T5s, or fluorescents should be avoided because they can’t produce the same amount of light without overheating the plants. One of the most important components to growing cannabis indoors is lighting. You can’t grow cannabis without it.
There are a lot of different ways to go about the lighting process, but it’s important to make sure you understand what type of lights you need for your space. Fluorescents and incandescent lights do not emit enough light in order to produce a healthy plant. LED lights or HPS lamps are much better options, but you should make sure that they have a high enough lumens rating.
