Licht
Light Guide for Cannabis Growth
Light is a vital component in cannabis cultivation, affecting plant growth, flowering, and overall yield quality. Here's why and how to manage it during each growth stage:
Why light is important
Photosynthesis:
Light energy is converted into chemical energy, fueling plant growth and development.
Photoperiodism:
Light schedules regulate the transition from vegetative growth to flowering.
Chlorophyll Production:
Adequate light intensity promotes chlorophyll production, essential for photosynthesis.
Growth Regulation:
Light influences plant height and branching, impacting overall structure.
Cannabinoid and Terpene Production::
Proper lighting enhances the production of cannabinoids and terpenes, increasing potency and flavor.
Nutrients per stage
During Germination
- Nutrients: Minimal need; focus on water and warmth.
- Importance: Seeds have stored energy for sprouting.
During Seedling Stage
- Nutrients: Light nutrient mix with low NPK.
- Importance: Supports early root and leaf development.
During Vegetative Stage
- Nutrients: High nitrogen content.
- Importance: Promotes leafy growth and strong stems.
During Pre-flowering Stage
- Nutrients: Balanced NPK mix.
- Importance: Prepares plants for the increase in phosphorus and potassium needs.
During Flowering Stage
- Nutrients: High phosphorus and potassium, low nitrogen.
- Importance: Enhances bud development and potency.
During Harvesting Stage
- Nutrients: N/A (Focus shifts to reducing nutrient intake before harvest)
- Importance: Flush plants to improve flavor and smoke quality.
By optimizing nutrient intake, home growers ensure robust growth, maximize yields, and achieve high-quality cannabis.
