Yo, yo, yo! What’s up, my fellow urban gardeners? We’re here to talk about a real OG plant – cannabis, and how you can grow it in a bucket. You know what I’m talking about, right? The Bucket Gang is in the house! Sit down, get comfortable, and let me take you through some tips and tricks.
Alright, enough chit-chat, let’s get down to business. Why grow it in a bucket, you ask? Well, for starters, it’s an easy way to cultivate the plant if you don’t have enough space for a full-blown garden. And secondly, buckets are cheap and readily available.
So here are the top tips and tricks for growing high-grade marijuana in a bucket:
1. Choose the right bucket
Not any old bucket will do. You need one that’s at least 5 gallons in size and has drainage holes at the bottom. You can get these buckets from your local hardware store or even ask around at construction sites if they have any spare ones lying around.
2. Use good quality soil
Your cannabis needs good soil to thrive in. Don’t skimp on this step! Invest in some high-quality potting soil from your local garden center or nursery. Make sure it’s well-draining and nutrient-rich.
3. Add some amendments
A little bit of extra love goes a long way when it comes to growing plants. Mix in some compost or worm castings into your soil before planting your weed. This will give it the extra nutrients it needs to grow big and strong.
4. Choose the right location
Marijuana likes full sun and well-draining soil. So make sure you place your bucket in a spot where it gets at least 6 hours of sunlight a day. If you live in a hot climate, try to find a spot that offers some shade during the hottest part of the day.
5. Water regularly
Cannabis likes to be kept moist but not waterlogged. Water your plant regularly but make sure the soil has time to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot and other issues.
6. Fertilize
To keep your weed healthy and happy, you need to fertilize it regularly. Organic fertilizers like fish emulsion or seaweed extract work great for this plant. Follow the instructions on the package for best results.
7. Support your plant
As ganja grows taller, it may need some support to keep from falling over. You can use bamboo stakes or tomato cages to prop up your plant if needed.
8. Watch out for pests
Like any plant, cannabis is susceptible to pests like aphids or spider mites. Keep an eye out for any signs of infestation and treat them as soon as possible with organic insecticides or neem oil.
9. Harvest at the right time
Ganja flowers from late summer into fall so make sure you harvest at the right time for maximum potency. The best time to harvest is when the flowers are in full bloom but before they start to wilt.
10. Enjoy your harvest!
Congratulations! You’re now part of the Bucket Gang and have successfully grown some dope cannabis in a bucket! Now sit back, relax and enjoy your harvest by making tea, tinctures or smoking it like a true OG!
