Marijuana production truly is on the rise around the States. If someone is not indulging in potent THC by means of smoking, dabbing, vaporizing CBD oil, or one of the many other pot practices one can treat themselves to, chances are they will be growing it. For those who aren’t currently witnessing the flowering stage of cannabis growth, they will have at least thought about attempting to grow Mother Nature’s magical herb.
The development of bud and their stretch of growth will differ, depending on which strain is selected. Legalized for personal use in a rising number of states throughout the U.S., marijuana growing practices are an enjoyable entry point into the industry as a whole; an industry that acts as many people’s portal to better quality of life, pain relief, strain selection education, and of course, business opportunities.
Before you plant that seed, familiarize yourself with the top strains for height, bud quality, THC content, and potency.
Why You Need to Hop on the Strain Train
Use, sale, and possession laws are changing around the United States, leading to an industry that has blossomed into something that could overtake manufacturing by 2020! A Medical Marijuana study showed that despite not being approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of medical conditions, marijuana use can offer relief from the following medicinal conditions:
- Chronic pain
- Neuropathic pain
- Muscle spasms
- Symptoms of multiple sclerosis
- Sensory and motor functions affected by paraplegia
Consumers in the ever-growing marijuana market are spending money on the herb, which is not surprising since cannabis has a medley of uses. Forbes stated that marijuana sales hit $6.7 billion in 2016 and this figure is forecast to grow substantially by the end of 2017.
This, combined with the profit potential of yielding the best-quality strains, demands some logical thinking if you are to make a wise move in ganja growing. Instead of overloading your mind with ideas, know which bud is best prior to the planting process commencing.
10 Strains for Yielding Pot Producing Power
You reap what you sow in this life. On that note, sit down, roll a joint, perhaps, and absorb the information below.
We talk about 10 high-yielding strains that could change the way you plant your pot:
- Northern Lights – Perhaps one of the easiest and most versatile strains to grow, Northern Lights seeds can be planted in either an indoor or outdoor environment. Flowering time is 7-9 weeks. Per square meter in a well-lit area, up to 18 ounces of skunky, full-bodied buds can blossom.
- Big Bud – While this strain does not reach huge heights, massive yields can be produced in the smallest of spaces. Expect 21 ounces of weed with 17% THC content per 10 square feet.
- Blueberry – Bust the stress and puff on some Blueberry bud. This tasty high-yielding strain produces 18 ounces and can grow up to 40 inches tall.
- AK-47 – Don’t let its wild name put you off, because the AK-47 strain will leave you feeling tranquil, in every sense of the word. Buds are usually thick, potent, and the strain will flower in less than 65 days.
- White Rhino – A stout and bushy plant, this strain is on the best-yielding list because it usually reaches around 6-feet. What’s more, the THC content is rather high, so you’re going to get pretty stoned! Massive yields usually have 15-20% THC minimum.
- Jack Herrer – Grow this popular strain in good conditions and you can expect the flowering time to be fast. Crops tend to grow taller than 8-feet.
- Strawberry Kush – The THC level of this mouthwatering strain is 16.7%. Flowering time is 8-9 weeks and its yielding potential is shorter indoors than it is when grown outdoors.
- Sour Diesel – When grown precisely, this strain will be a pungent mixture of flavors and scents, so get ready to ventilate your growing space. Around 2-4 ounces can be yielded from the above-average Sour Diesel strain.
- Chocolope – An outdoor setting will enable you to grow a lot of bud with the Chocolope strain. It is a sativa strain and is fairly straightforward to grow.
- Gold Leaf – Last but certainly not least on the list of high-yielding cannabis strains is Gold Leaf, which boasts a THC level of 21% and a height of up to 90 inches!
Getting the Most Out of Your Strain
Whichever strain you select for its yielding potential, enlighten yourself on the ways to improve bud quality. Strain selection is just as important as your growing technique. From seed to bud, you must devote a portion of your time to ensuring your green garden is turning into a pot paradise.
After ensuring your ganja strains have the best genetics, introduce them to plenty of light and feed them with a regular dose of nutrients. Be sure to manipulate the air and humidity (if you’re a novice grower, you really need to remember this), and harvest your buds with ample air flow. Keep insects and pests at bay, and don’t forget to check in and marvel on the budding process every day!
