This section covers the traditional method of cultivating medicinal or recreational marijuana indoors, wherein the plants are grown in a soil-like medium and fertilizer is added when the plants are given water. Traditional outdoor cultivation techniques are covered in the next section, and alternative techniques, such as hydroponics and organic cultivation techniques, are discussed in the last section. Cultivating marijuana indoors is more complicated and expensive than growing outdoors, but it allows the cultivator complete control over the growing environment, and will ...

Whether the different strains of Cannabis constitute a single species (Cannabis sativa L.) or multiple species has been a contentious issue for well over two centuries.[1]^{See also:}

Since the twentieth century, most countries have laws against the cultivation, use, possession, or transfer of cannabis (and, naturally, these laws impact adversely on the herb's cultivation for non-recreational purposes) but there are many regions where certain circumstances of cannabis handling are legal or licensed and others where laws against its use, possession, or sale are not enforced. Many jurisdictions have also decriminalized possession of small quantities of cannabis, so that it is punished by confiscation and/or a fine, r ...

The name cannabis is thought to be of Scythian origin. Possibly it has an earlier origin in Semitic languages like Hebrew, in Exodus 30:23 God commands Moses to make a holy anointing oil of myrrh, sweet cinnamon, kaneh bosem, and kassia. In kaneh bosem (Hebrew קנה בשם) kaneh means "reed" or "cane", while bosem means "aromatic". Greek translations of the Old Testament rendered kaneh as "reed", leading to possibly erroneous English translations as sweet calamus (Exodus 30:23), sweet cane (Isaiah 43:24; Jeremiah 6:20) and calamusSee also:

The nature and intensity of the immediate effects of cannabis consumption vary according to the dose, the species or hybridization of the source plant, the method of consumption, the user's mental and physical characteristics (such as possible tolerance), and the environment of consumption. Effects of cannabis consumption may be loosely classified as cognitive and physical. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the Cannabis sativa species tends to produce more of the cognitive or perceptual effects, while Cannabis indica tends to produce more of the physical effects. < ...

Main article: Health issues and the effects of cannabis There is little conclusive scientific evidence about the long-term effects of human cannabis consumption. The findings of earlier studies purporting to demonstrate the effects of the drug are unreliable and generally regarded as junk science, as the studies were flawed, with strong bias and poor methodology. The most significant confounding factor is the use of other drugs, including alcohol and tobacco, by test subjects in conjunction with cannabis. When subjects using on ...

An important factor in extreme efficiency cannabis cultivation is selecting the best genetics for one's crop. This is frequently done by selecting one or more known strains, or strains with preferred genetics (in the case of marijuana, one might use seeds from a batch that was particularly enjoyed), and then growing a number of the seeds to find out which exhibit the characteristics most desirable to the cultivator. Plant characteristics which are generally selected for include: Overall yield Time to frui ...

As cannabis and its cultivation is illegal in most parts of the world, considerable resources are committed to the interdiction of cultivation. Outdoor cultivation is common in both rural and urban areas, with outdoor cultivators tending towards growing sativa-based strains for better response to sunlight and reduced emission of odours. Cannabis plants blend in easily with other plants to the point that they are unidentifiable by all but the most observant. Often simple camouflage techniques can avert detection, such as ...

Cannabis is a member of the family Cannabinacea, along with hops. Cannabis is an annual and usually dioecious, which means it has separate pistillate (female) and stamenate (male) plants. A shorter photoperiod (day length) towards the end of the growing season is generally required to induce the reproductive (sometimes called flowering or budding) phase of growth, however some cultivars of Cannabis are auto-flowering, which means that ...

When cultivated outdoors, the chosen areas are those which receive twelve hours or more of sunlight in a given day. Northern locations are preferred (Humboldt County, California and British Columbia being particularly notable), but southern locations (such as Maui, Hawaii) are also known to be good producers. In general, a south facing exposure is preferred for maximum sunlight exposure. In instances where the local laws do not permit growing cannabis, cultivators may choose to grow in forests or rugged and rural areas where the local ...

Cannabis cultivation - Ideal harvest timing. Buds are typically harvested when fully ripe. Generally, ripeness is defined as when the white pistils start to turn dark yellow, orange, light to mid red, etc. and the trichomes, "crystals", barely begin to turn milky from clear. Ideally, the professional uses both a decent power magnifying glass, brix meter (to measure "sugar" content), and microscope. The potential seed pods swell with resins usually reserved for seed production, thus improving the quality of the bu ...
