The roots are continuing to expand and our plants' growth is taking off! A healthy cannabis plant can grow up to 2 inches in a single day! The duration of the vegetative phase is controlled [...]
As the plants continue to grow taller and larger, new layers of leaves are being added. Spacing between the nodes should represent the type of cannabis you are growing. Indica plants tend to be short [...]
