Step-by-Step Growing Guide for C4 Strain
Step 1: Choosing the Right Growing Spot
- Indoors: Make sure you have enough space for your plants (ideally at least 1m² per plant). Use a grow tent to create a controlled environment with optimal growing conditions.
- Outdoors: Pick a sunny spot that gets at least 6-8 hours of sunlight a day. The soil should be well-aerated and slightly acidic to neutral.
Step 2: Germinating the Seeds
- Water Soak Method: Put the seeds in a glass of water and let them soak for 12-24 hours until they swell up.
- Seedling Method: Place the swollen seeds in moist soil (a mix of peat and perlite is ideal) and cover them lightly. Keep the soil moist but not soggy. At 22-25°C, the seeds should sprout in 2-7 days.
Step 3: Vegetative Phase (Growth Phase)
- Lighting: Make sure your plants get 18 hours of light per day (during the growth phase). Use high-quality lights like LED or HPS lamps.
- Temperature and Humidity: Keep the temperature between 20-26°C and humidity at 50-60%. Too much humidity can cause mold.
- Watering: Water regularly but avoid waterlogging. Let the top layer of soil dry out a bit between waterings.
Step 4: Vegetative Phase
- Pruning and Training: Remove the lower, weaker branches to encourage the growth of the upper, stronger ones. Use techniques like LST (Low Stress Training) if needed to shape your plant and distribute light evenly.
- Fertilizing: Use a balanced fertilizer (NPK 3-1-2 or 2-1-2) during the growth phase. Make sure to gradually increase the amount of fertilizer to avoid overfeeding.
Step 5: Flowering Phase
- Change the light cycle: Once your plants are big enough, switch to a 12/12 light cycle (12 hours light, 12 hours dark) to promote Flower.
- Temperature and humidity: Lower the humidity to 40-50% and the temperature to 18-22°C to prevent mold.
- Bloom fertilizer: During Flower, switch to a phosphorus-rich fertilizer (e.g. NPK 1-3-2) to boost flower production.
Step 6: Care during Flower
- Further pruning: Keep removing any dead or shaded leaves that block light to make sure Flowers gets as much light as possible.
- Monitor your plants: Watch out for pests and diseases. Check air circulation regularly to make sure there's no mold.
Step 7: Getting ready to harvest
- Determine harvest time: The flowering time for the C4 strain is about 8-9 weeks. Make sure the trichomes (resin glands) are milky white to amber for the best THC content.
- Cutting: When your plant is ready, cut the main stems and hang them in a cool, well-ventilated place to dry.
Step 8: Harvest and Drying
- Drying: Let your plants dry for 7-14 days in a dark room with 50% humidity and a temperature of about 18-22°C. The branches should snap easily when they're fully dried.
- Curing: Once Flowers is dry, store it in jars and let it cure for 2-4 weeks to bring out the best flavor and potency.
Extra Tips:
- Clones: If you want to use clones, check out a selection of cannabis clones to help you pick the best genetics for your grow.
- Check your plants regularly: Especially during flowering, it's important to spot mold and pests early and deal with them right away.
- Air circulation: Make sure there's good ventilation to prevent mold and help your plants grow.
