Dial in Your Growing Conditions
- Indoor or Outdoor: Kryptonite Auto cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by all levels of growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is 70-85 degrees Fahrenheit. These plants do well with an 18-hour light schedule during the vegetative phase. Because this strain is an auto-flowering strain, it does not require a change in light to induce flowering. It will do that on its own, making less work for the grower.
- Moisture control: In terms of humidity levels, you’ll want to set it at 40-60% during the vegetative growth stage. To get the plants through to the flowering stage, you will need to drop the humidity to a steady 30-40% to avoid mold, mildew, and bud rot.
- Training Techniques: Techniques such as pruning, topping, low-stress training (LST), high-stress training (HST), and implementing strategies like the Sea of Green (SOG) or Screen of Green (ScrOG) can substantially enhance yield potential. Lastly, the manual emphasizes the importance of precise harvesting and curing methodologies to preserve the integrity and potency of the final product.
