How would some one go about relocating cannabis without.. you know, killing it. hypothetically of course. the plant may, or may not be 6 and a half weeks old.
not that.... i'm moving it. hypothetically remember that. let's say i want to move it from the ground, where it could have accidently started growing from tossing too many seeds in the backyard... or not.. to a larger pot, so i could.. if i had a plant, move it around
Dig up the dirt around it, then try to get most of that dirt of with your hands so you can use good dirt. Also, hope it's a female.
well... if this plant, existed all the leaves on it have 7 leaves. im assuming that could mean this plant is female. but, are you sure that won't kill my non existent plant?
you will need a 5 gallon bucket (plastic) with a large hole (about2 inches) in the bottom. place broken pieces of flower pot over the hole to keep the dirt from falling out. mix your potting soil with vermiculite in about the ratio of 3 to 1. adjust the PH of the water you use to 6.3 (slightly acidic) use miracle grow. after potting seclude the plant for 24 hours in total darkness. when growing s-l-o-w-ly (about an hour a week) adjust the light cycle from 18 hours down to where the plant starts to bud. after you get a harvest of buds increase the light to 18 hours and repeat. maintain a PH of 6.3 for best results. also keep the relative humidity down as low as possible, buy a dehumidifier and put it in the same room as the plant. 4 4foot florescent tubes will greatly aid in the growth of your plant. get tubes for growing plants "grow lights" if you live by yourself get an old refridgerator box and line the inside with aluminum foil (dull side out) put the plant, lights, dehumidifier in it for a self contained grow box.
That seems much better than my answer. What do the tubes do? I haven't grown weed in a while, but it's something like 7 leaves or 9 leaves. If this plant did exist, would you be planing to clone(this will help a lot) it or pinch it?
i got a real good feeling you've done this quite a few times. anyways, thanks for the advice. i think i could manage to do, most of it. except, define vermiculite
i figure i'll keep it alive as long as possible. harvest it when it's ready, and allow it to grow for next season. i suppose i could plant some new seeds off the first crop. which brings a new question. anyone got harvesting tips?
i never have. the above post of mine is a figment of your imagination go to where they sell gardening supplies, they'll have it. it comes in bags like potting soil. the best description of vermiculite is "a spongy substance". it aids in watering your plants.
cut the buds off and place them in brown paper bags to dry. the idea being to slow the drying process.
okay. that answers a lot of questions. but leads to more. how would you go about pruning a plant, and is there a way to tell if it's ready to be pruned? one more i can think to ask is, when would you know your plant is ready for harvesting
remember that all plants grow from their tips. you clip off a tip and it will get no longer, it will branch instead. you can use scissors to clip your plants. when it gets too big for the box. when it dies. as long as its alive you can harvest buds and leaves from it. when it dies leave it in the box to dry out or pull it up and place it in a brown paper bag to dry. adjusting the light cycle tells the plant when to bud. if it starts to bud and you don't want it to then increase the hours of light.
