Dear Fellow Grower,
In today's issue...
- How many plants should you grow at one time? Should you grow one? Eight? One hundred? Oddly enough, there are times where any of those three numbers would be appropriate. Read today's article to learn how many plants YOU should be growing for maximum efficiency!
- If you do decide to grow multiple strains together at the same time, what can you do to make things easier and maximize yields?
- The subjects of today's trophy pics are all ready for their close-ups! Each set of pics gets closer until you're able to count trichomes using nothing but your eyeballs. Who needs a jeweler's loups or a microscope anyways?

How Many Cannabis Plants
Should I Grow?

Should you grow just one cannabis plant or many to maximize your yields? What’s the best number of plants to grow considering your grow light and the size of your grow space?
What’s the best number of plants to grow?
Should you grow many plants so they fill your grow space faster?
It only took 6 weeks for those plants to completely fill up this grow space. Imagine how long it would have taken for one plant to grow this big!
But growing just 1-2 plants at a time has its own benefits...
One or Many Cannabis Plants: Costs vs Benefits
Growing Just 1-2 Cannabis Plants at a Time
Pros
- Easier – Fewer plants make it easy to pay attention to each individual plant and it’s often easier to reach all the plants.
- Much Simpler – You won’t need to compromise as much between plants with different needs.
- Less Time Daily – Spend less time on a daily basis caring for plants (making nutrient water, watering, training plants, etc).
- May Be Only Legal Choice – Many growers live in an area with a limit on the number of plants they can grow (for example in Canada you are only allowed to grow 4 plants at a time, and each legal US state has different growing rules). These growers don’t have a lot of choices when it comes to how many plants to grow.
Cons
- Less Variety – You’ll only be able to grow one or two strains, instead of many strains at once.
- Fewer (or Smaller) Harvests – Yield is based on how well you fill the grow space with plants before they start flowering. With just one or two plants, it takes extra time for each plant to fully spread out in the vegetative stage so you achieve the best yields. This results in fewer harvests a year. Alternatively, if the grow space has empty spots during the flowering stage you’ll end up with smaller yields.
It took 8 weeks in the vegetative stage to train the plant to grow this way. Yet it was a joy to focus on just one plant and get to form a relationship with it.
In the flowering stage, the plant rewarded the effort with buds that filled the space where the plant was trained

How to Grow Different Strains Together
|
|
How do you prevent problems when growing different strains together?
|
Growing multiple strains gives greater variety at harvest, but you can run into challenges.
Plant heights may not match up
Good planning goes a long way, especially when it comes to choosing genetics.
Life gets easier when you match strains so they tend to grow to the same height
Which Strains Play Well Together?
|
|
|
Today's theme was growing multiples plants together. Here are examples of good strains that work well together.
These strains each grow to a medium height and take about 10 weeks in the flowering stage (or from seed-to-harvest in the case of the autoflowering strains) in my experience. Mix and
match to grow multiple strains that grow similarly to each other but produce wildly different buds.

"After ages of looking up different articles, videos, and pictures to try and figure out what was going on with our sweet ladies, we discovered your website. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! There were many other sites that gave tidbits of helpful info, but didn't always account for further contingencies; others had some pictures, but not the full catalogue of issues in visual format. A lot of what we read simply confused the issues. The hard work, care, and
organization you put into your site has saved us quite a lot of hard work and worry. Thanks Again! <3"

One day we'll make a plant doctor that can just look a picture and tell what the problem is. The future is now! 👨🔬 ~Sirius
"I just wanted to say thank you for what you do. Without you life would be different. Just wanted to see if you could send some promotional products or stickers to a super fan. Would love to show you iff in any way i can. Thanks for being there. Your number 1 supporter."
~Chris
We've tried a few companies for promotional products, but none have produced acceptable quality to us so far. We're still on the lookout for the right company but we're working on it! ~Sirius

"Growing cannabis can be a relaxing hobby in and of itself, but it also saves you money and keeps you from having to deal with shady characters. Cannabis is much easier to grow than people give it credit for, and growing in water doesn't increase the difficulty much, if any.
