How to grow Cannabis in cold weather?

Most Cannabis strains respond well to warm and humid conditions. Cannabis plants grow optimally in the temperature range of 12-30 degrees celsius. When the temperature falls below 12 degrees, the plant metabolism slows down considerably. Frost and snow can also cause harm to Cannabis plants. However, if you still want to grow weed in a cold climate- that is possible too! You only have to make a few changes.

Let’s talk about how you can grow Cannabis in cold weather.

#1. Using Heating Mats

During winters, the temperature goes down below 10 degrees. Such cold temperatures induce root shock in Cannabis plants. The plant roots cannot absorb water and nutrients properly. As a result, the growth slows down by many folds.

If you do not have potted plants, you can use heating mats on soil beds. Heating mats will maintain the soil temperature above 15 degrees. Hence, the growth of the plant will not slow down.

#2. Build a Greenhouse

Building a Greenhouse can be a matter of substantial investment. However, if you are a garden enthusiast, you can make one for your benefit.

Cannabis plants thrive at 20-25 degrees Celsius temperature range. Greenhouse maintains such warmer temperatures that promote growth and flowering in weed plants.

#3. Avoid Inducing Revegetation

It is one of the most common mistakes that newbie weed growers can make. You are likely to bring the potted plants inside after sunset to protect them from cold. However, the temperature difference is significant.

You should take extreme caution if the plant is in the flowering phase. The light and temperature change can switch them back to the vegetative phase. This phenomenon is called revegetation that is stressful for Cannabis plants.

Hence, you should keep track of the outside temperature and light intensity outdoors and maintain it indoors too.

#4. Indoor Seed Germination

If you have already bought Canadian weed seeds from Toronto Seed bank for growing them in winter, make sure to do it indoors. Winter temperatures will make the seeds dormant. Allow the marijuana seeds to grow inside until the plant grows considerably.

#5. Growing Winter Variety Weed

Indica strains are used for growing in winter. Somango XL, Critical, Blue Cheese, White Widow are some of the winter variety weeds that you can grow.
