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.
So r u doing indoors or outdoors. Makes a but of differences. Im a fan of jacks 321 nutrients. They r a dry nutrient that goes a long ways and is fairly cheap to purchase indoors or out will make a difference tho and if u wanna go salts or organic based
Welcome to GN and the world of cannabis. Sounds like you have a good lineup already, what cannabis seeds are you starting with. There is certainly scientific evidence about cannabis supporting people with anxiety, its a great medicine for the brain and body. Shout if you need help setting up your grow and post some questions.
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.
You’re doing great by choosing LED grow lights, especially in a hot place like Sheridan. LEDs don’t get as hot as older lights, so they help keep your grow space cooler and your plants healthier. Just make sure there’s good airflow around the lights, and keep them about 12–24 inches above your plants. Use a timer to give your plants a steady light schedule. If you see leaves curling or plants stretching, adjust the light height. In hot weather, LEDs really help avoid heat stress and save energy too.
