This is not the only affecting factor, but it\u2019s one of the most important ones. On one hand, we must take into consideration that <strong>sativa strains usually produce higher yields<\/strong>, up to 1 kg (2.20 lbs) per plant. As for indicas can produce up to 500 g (1.10 lbs) per plant approximately. However, nowadays we can find some indica strains with a production yield similar to that of sativas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the genetics will depend on where the growth is taking place and which effects are we looking for. Also, <strong>autoflowering strains produce below-average yields <\/strong>even if they can be harvested faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can go for more productive strains. Some of the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/top-5-best-low-priced-and-productive-feminised-seeds\/\"> best, cheap and productive feminized seeds<\/a> are <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/bulk-seeds\/5122-banana-punch.html\">Banana Punch<\/a>, Gorilla or Green Poison Fast Version F1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.growbarato.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/produccion-marihuana.jpg-1.webp\" alt=\"Producci\u00f3n marihuana\" title=\"Producci\u00f3n marihuana\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Indoor_or_outdoor_growing\"><\/span><strong>Indoor or outdoor growing<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The growing site will depend on each cannabis grower since not everyone has a garden or a specific place where growing is allowed. Normally, <strong>indoors crops have lesser outcomes than outdoors<\/strong> as plants that grow in soil can stretch their roots without any problems, growing stronger and sturdier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A sturdier and developed root system allows the plants to absorb more nutrients, water, and oxygen in order to <strong>grow vigorously high<\/strong> while producing a greater number of buds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Provided_nutrients\"><\/span><strong>Provided nutrients<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Marijuana plants have specific and nutritional requirements that are important to know and<strong> provide in order to boost your yields<\/strong>. The most important nutrients to care about are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. The levels of these macronutrients vary depending on each plant\u2019s stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, in the vegetative phase, they\u2019ll be needing slightly higher levels of both nitrogen and potassium, while during the flowering period phosphorus levels will be higher and nitrogen levels will be lower. In the same way, <strong>we must pay attention to micronutrients<\/strong> such as calcium, zinc, magnesium and sulfur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All these nutrients must be provided in a correct way, without overfertilizing the plants. This is why we can use a premixed formula specifically designed for this purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Temperature_and_humidity_levels\"><\/span><strong>Temperature and humidity levels<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Temperature range is important as<strong> it\u2019s responsible for both flower quality and weight<\/strong>. It must range between 10-28 \u00baC (50-82.4 \u00baF). We must take into account that the degrees will depend on the chosen strain. For indoors growing, we must control the amount of light provided, as well as its voltage in order to create the right environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding the right humidity levels, they should range between <strong>40-60%<\/strong>, but they must be reduced during the last weeks of the flowering period in order to prevent bud problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ventilation\"><\/span><strong>Ventilation<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Plants <strong>need carbon dioxide to grow properly<\/strong>. This compound is abundant in the air and can be provided to plants by allowing proper ventilation so the oxygen generated by them will flow.
