Issue #662 - Sunday, December 29, 2024 Greetings Fellow Grower, - Grow ALL the weed! That's the goal of today's article. We want you to be able to grow a mountain of weed with only a few plants. Not only does that make the job easier, but it's more impressive and it spreads your sweet time and attention over a
more manageable number of babies. Plus, it's easier to fit within local growing limits if that applies to you.
- Do you know what growers like? We do! We're in a weirdly unique position that we get to hear a lot about what growers use in their gardens to harvest fantastic weed. Below, we'll show you what's been the most popular for all types of growers who read our newsletter.
- Autumn colors in the middle of winter... One of our
readers is known for sending fantastic bud pictures and their streak continues! So load up that bowl/edible/joint, then head down to check out the "Weekly Plant Spotlight" and see what I'm talking about. It's worth it!

How to Produce a Ton of Weed with Only 1-4 Plants by Nebula Haze

Click here to view the full article on GrowWeedEasy.com Do you have legal plant limits? Cannabis cultivation is legal in many countries and several states in the USA. However, many growers are subject to legal plant limits. That means they can only grow a certain number of plants at a time. For
example, California (where I live) allows 21+ adults to grow up to 6 plants. In Canada, adults can legally grow up to 4 plants. Legal plant limits? No problem! Learn how to grow up to 1 pound (~0.5 kg) of weed with 1-4 plants.

Just follow the step-by-step LST instructions and harvest a bounty of weed! Legal plant count limits can make it harder to get big yields when growing cannabis, especially if you’re also limited on space, but there are cultivation tricks and tactics to let you harvest huge amounts of bud from small grow spaces with just a few marijuana plants. In fact, it’s possible to produce over a pound (~0.5 kg) of weed from 1-4 plants when you do it right. Get big cannabis yields with just a few plants! Pruning techniques like manifolding can force even one small plant to produce huge buds. This plant was less than 2 feet (0.6m) tall at harvest and produced 6.2 oz by itself. Let marijuana plants get bigger to increase your yields. This is especially effective when combined with pruning (as explained below). These two cannabis plants are about 4 feet (1.2m) tall and produced 18.6 oz (over 1 lb) of weed between them! This giant mass is actually made of only 4 plants trained to grow flat over a screen. Multi-pound harvest with just 4 plants! It’s amazing what you can accomplish with a few plants. Let’s learn how to produce a ton of weed in your marijuana garden with 1-4 plants. 1.) Grow Bigger Plants
You can only yield so much from a small plant. Bigger plants can produce a lot more weed than small plants. Just make sure you don’t let plants get too big or your space
quickly gets overgrown. Growing plants to the perfect size for your setup leads to the best harvest. In this picture: One of these clones got much bigger than the other. Although buds are similar in width, the bigger plant with longer buds produced higher yields overall. Letting a plant get big enough to completely fill your grow space can dramatically improve your final bud weights. On average, bigger plants
produce more weed. What to do: Wait to initiate the flowering stage until plants are 1/2 the final desired size. In other words: - Photoperiod Plants: Change to a 12/12 light schedule when plants are half size. Most strains are photoperiod strains. Plants will roughly double in height on average.
- Auto-flowering Plants: Auto-flowering strains start flowering on their own. Their final size depends on the strain, size of the pot, light levels, and overall care.
- Know Your Strain: Different strains “stretch” a different amount. Strains listed as “tall” strains can triple in size after buds start forming. Check the strain details when buying seeds so you know what to expect.
Cannabis plants don’t immediately stop getting bigger once they start making buds. After entering the budding/flowering stage, most
plants about double in size. That means you should start 12/12 when plants are about half the final desired size. To maximize yields, you want plants that are as big as possible without overgrowing the space. It helps to calculate how tall plants can safely get in your grow space without being too close to your grow light. No matter the height you’re going for, try to create a nice wide plant canopy. Fill the entire space under your grow light with
plants. These two plants reached half the final desired size for this grow tent. At this point, initiate the flowering stage by giving plants a 12/12 light schedule. A few weeks later, the plants have about doubled in size. This is known as the flowering stretch. Use this knowledge to grow plants that are the right size for your grow space. Tips to grow bigger plants - Photoperiod strains help you control plant size – The main idea behind this step is to control the length of the vegetative stage so plants get to the optimal size. Auto-flowering strains only spend a few weeks in the vegetative stage, and therefore don’t give you much control
over the final size. Learn more about the best strains to grow in Step 4.
- Use bigger pots – Bigger roots can support bigger plants. Plants in a small pot (under 2 gallons) tend to stay small while bigger pots (5-10 gallons) make it easier and faster to produce plants that are 3+ feet (1+ m) tall.
- Consider coco or hydro – Plants grown in hydroponics (and to a lesser extent coco) tend to grow faster than
soil plants. If you want to get big plants fast, hydro or coco may be a good way to go. Soil or super soil can still be great choices, but they may add to the total time to harvest.
- Grow plants to 1/2 size before flowering – Initiate the flowering stage when plants are 1/2 the final desired size. This is done by using a timer to put grow lights on a 12/12 light schedule. On average, plants double in size after the
switch to 12/12, though strains listed as “tall” or “short” may stretch more or less. Learn more about the flowering stretch.
- Total plant coverage – Completely fill your space before you initiate the flowering stage.
Think of sculpting a plant canopy that is wide and flat like a table…

"One way to avoid Trim Jail is by spreading out the harvest. We typically trim two plants every second day at harvest time. Between two people, trimming is done in less than three hours, leaving plenty of time for a nap! One picture shows changeover in the garden with the new plants going into flower and mature plants ready to harvest." ~The Joint Fairy "These colors are beautiful! The Joint Fairy never disappoints." ~Sirius
