Growing cannabis outdoors is a year long experience. In this episode of How to Grow Cannabis Outdoors, Nikki and Swami break down the outdoor cannabis grow calendar and what you can look forward to each month of your grow.

They’ll help you schedule and categorize everything you need to do to get ready for your first marijuana grow of the year.

Depending on your locale and the size of your garden, they recommend getting your soil ready in January, prepping your garden, and choosing your seeds. February should see you getting your soil ready with amendments. You may also need to set up a cold frame to protect your plants from the cold evenings.

They recommend sprouting your seeds indoors once you can see that spring is well underway around April. Sow your sprouted seeds, move them outdoors and check your plants every day to sex them and remove males.

Late July will see the start of the vegetative stage, where you’ll get to top and train your cannabis plants as they begin to gain the bulk of their biomass. You’ll also need to set up your supports frames, something we’ll cover in-depth in a later episode.

Next, they’ll cover additional considerations, like your drying space, the perfect time to harvest cannabis, and how important proper weed curing is to your smoking experience.
