Dial in Your Growing Conditions
- Indoor or Outdoor: Blueberry Skunk cannabis seeds can be grown indoors and outdoors by experienced growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is between 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit. An 18 to 24-hour light cycle is used throughout the vegetative stage. During the flowering stage, reduce the light to 12 hours on and 12 hours off. Proper lighting ensures that Blueberry Skunk plants grow to produce dense, flavorful buds.
- Moisture control: Maintain moderate humidity levels between 40-50% throughout the vegetative stage, while dialing back the humidity to 30-40% will get these plants through the flowering stage and into harvest.
- Training Techniques: Sea of Green and Screen of Green training techniques are the best options for this strain. Both techniques employ tools to adjust canopy development and allow the right amount of light to reach the buds. Ultimately, these techniques will increase your yield numbers.
