How to grow cannabis indoors with Lighting.

Fluorescent tubes are named for the spectrum of light which they emit. Some spectrums are more efficient than others.
Deluxe warm white, warm white and deluxe cool white are all conducive to good growth and should be widely available.
All types of growing light should have a reflector box around them directing the light towards the plants.
You should get the longest light that will fit into your space and the highest wattage you can find.
Screw-in grow bulbs are tempting but highly inefficient.

How to grow cannabis outdoor or indoor with the proper Plant Pot Size

A cannabis of 6″*6″*6″ should be perfect to support good growth.
One of these per plant is how to grow cannabis.

Organic Soil Mixes

There are many different types of soil mixes available and they are easy to obtain from garden centers.
Two proven types are:
-4 parts topsoil, 1 part peat moss, 1 part vermiculite, 1 part perlite.
This is moist, contains medium/high amounts of nutrients and is best for hand watering systems.
-1 part worm castings, 2 parts vermiculite, 1 part perlite.
This is light-weight and high in nutrients.

Fertilizer

The main nutrients that a plant needs to grow are Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Potassium. Most plant fertilizers contain these elements and a good, easily available, one is called Grow More.
If you really want to then here are the some effective ratios of the three elements to be used through the two growth stages.
Early growth stages: 7-9-5 or 5-10-5 or 4-5-3.
For the flowering stages use 3-10-4 or 5-20-5 or 4-30-12.
It is best to build up the amount of fertilizer you use to what is making the plants look healthily green as too much fertilizer can kill the plant.

How to grow cannabis outdoors or indoors and deal with Soil pH Levels

Any pH level between 6 and 7 is fine but you should aim for as close to 6.5 as possible.

Temperature when how to grow cannabis indoor

Aim for 70 F. Anything higher than 75F will be too hot and will damage growth. Make sure the water for watering is luke-warm.

CANNABIS LIFE CYCLE

Cannabis plants may belong to any one of a number of varieties which follow somewhat different growth patterns. The following outline describes the more common form of growth. Differences between varieties can be thought of as variations on this standard theme.
Cannabis is an annual plant. A single season completes a generation, leaving all hope for the future to the seeds. The normal life cycle follows the general pattern described below.

Grow cannabis indoor and outdoor Germination

With winter past, the moisture and warmth of spring stir activity in the embryo. Water is absorbed and the embryo’s tissues swell and grow, splitting the seed along its suture.
The radical or embryonic root appears first. Once clear of the seed, the root directs growth downward in response to gravity. Meanwhile, the seed is being lifted upward by growing cells which form the seedling’s stem.

Now anchored by the roots, and receiving water and nutrients, the embryonic leaves (cotyledons) unfold. They are a pair of small, somewhat oval, simple leaves, now green with chlorophyll to absorb the life-giving light. Germination is complete. The embryo has been reborn and is now a seedling living on the food it produces through photosynthesis. The process of germination is usually completed in three to 10 days.

Seedling

The second pair of leaves begins the seedling stage. They are set opposite each other and usually have a single blade. They differ from the embryonic leaves by their larger size, spearhead shape, and serrated margins. With the next pair of leaves that appears, usually each leaf has three blades and is larger still.
A basic pattern has been set. Each new set of leaves will be larger, with a higher number of blades per leaf until, depending on variety, they reach their maximum number, often nine or 11.
The seedling stage is completed within four to six weeks.

the rate of photosynthesis and how the growth of greenhouse plants in winter can be increased?

the rate of photosynthesis is limited by certain enviromental factors. name two limiting factors and describe how the growth of greenhouse plants in winter can be increased?

can anyone help me out with this question?

Since water, carbon dioxide & light are required for photosynthesis to proceed they are rate limiting to the process. Other factors include ambient temperature, soil temperature, & nutrients.

Increasing CO2 concentration with increased light (luminosity) at temperatures below 25C will impact the rate of photosynthesis but at temperature over 25C the respiration rate is also altered. Increasing the temperature from 10ºC to 20ºC could double the rate of photosynthesis depending on other rate limiting factors.

More Families Starting Vegetable Gardens

Rising food costs are causing more families to start their own vegetable gardens at home.

“We’re selling a lot more seeds for vegetables. We’re selling a lot more plants and more people are asking, ‘How do I make my plants grow in a garden?’” said Kent Maughan with the Soil Service Garden Center on Troost Avenue.

Maughan said he’s getting more questions on start-up gardens and basic planting rules.

He also educates customers about the clay soil in Kansas City and how to make it more plant-friendly.

“Anything that we can add as far as hummus — any material to break up the clay and lighten the soil — the plants will be much happier,” Maughan said.

Ben Johnson started up a garden last year and is expanding it this year. He planning to grow watermelon, spinach, strawberries, cucumbers and tomatoes.

Johnson said he started the garden for enjoyment and health benefits, but now he realizes it also helps another way.

“You hear about the falling dollar and the rising inflation, and every time I listen to that, I just dig a little more (in the garden),” Johnson said.

If you’re interested in starting a garden but don’t have a yard, you can start a “deck garden” and do your growing in containers.
