Growing cannabis in a greenhouse

growing weed in a greenhouse: With the climate in the Netherlands, it is ideal to grow cannabis in a greenhouse. You can get a good yield with cannabis buds that are hard and compact. With a greenhouse that can preferably be heated, you open up a range of new possibilities for growing cannabis. Different types of cabinets are used for this purpose, normally sowing is done in a dark environment, because in the beginning the seeds do not need light.

Important if you grow weed in a greenhouse

It is important that the light is optimal to achieve a good growth of the seedlings. You must therefore ensure that as much light as possible can shine into the greenhouse. Choose a frame that is as light as possible, with glass that has as large a surface as possible. Of course, the complete construction must be strong enough and remain stable. Steel and aluminum frames are very suitable for this, but the costs are higher than a wooden frame. In the Netherlands you will find more and more of these types of greenhouses with lower prices than before.

What should you consider when placing the greenhouse?

If you are going to start growing weed, there are several things to take into account when placing the cabinet. Experience has shown that you will catch the most light when you place the greenhouse in an East-West direction during the months with little light. Make sure that the greenhouse is placed in a place where there is as little shade as possible from surrounding buildings, or trees and other things. Also make sure there are no hemp fields nearby. In addition, do not forget to clean the greenhouse completely every year so that the sunlight can shine through optimally.
