Optimizing Vegetative Growth

Intermediate 8 min read

Light Schedules

During vegetative growth, maintain 18-24 hours of light daily. Many growers use 18/6 (18 hours on, 6 hours off).

Nutrients in Vegetative Stage

During veg, plants need higher nitrogen (N) compared to phosphorus and potassium. A ratio like 10-5-5 is ideal.

Training Techniques

  • Topping - Remove the top cola to encourage bushier growth
  • LST (Low Stress Training) - Bend branches to create a flat canopy
  • FIM (Fuck I Missed) - Pinch off 75% of the growth tip

Vegetative Stage Duration

Vegetative stage typically lasts 4-8 weeks depending on plant size desired.
