Growing Cannabis in Hot Weather: Advice Needed


Hello,

I’m from Sheridan, where the weather gets hot. I need help with my cannabis plants.

I have an anxiety disorder, and friends suggested cannabis might help. They say there’s scientific evidence supporting this. Since buying cannabis is expensive, I decided to grow it at home.

Here’s what I’ve started with:

  • Cannabis seeds
  • LED grow lights
  • Grow space
  • Containers
  • Soil
  • pH meter
  • Ventilation system

It might be basic, but now I need advice on nutrients and fertilizers suitable for this hot season. I started using mycorrhizae, but I’m worried I might be using too much. So far, my cannabis plants seem fine, but I’m concerned about any potential long-term effects. If anyone has faced similar issues, I’d appreciate your thoughts.

In hot weather, use balanced nutrients with adequate potassium and calcium for your cannabis plants. Monitor your mycorrhizae usage to avoid overapplication, and ensure your ventilation system is efficient to manage heat. Regularly check your plants’ health to prevent issues. Adjust your growing environment and nutrient levels as needed to support healthy growth.
