Plant Density and Its Influence on Cannabis Cultivation
Plant density plays an important role in cannabis cultivation. Deciding how many plants to grow per unit area determines your cultivation strategy and influences outcomes like yield and secondary metabolite synthesis. In this blog post, we’ll discuss how plant density affects cannabis production and share strategies for managing denser canopies. Why plant density matters Plant density influences resource allocation, which in turn affects plant morphology. The closer plants grow together, the more they compete for light, water and nutrients. Plant density also …

Bridging Yield Gaps in Cannabis Cultivation
In agriculture, a yield gap refers to the difference between a crop’s maximum yield potential and the yield the farmer actually achieves.[1] For cannabis, the yield gap is the difference between the highest possible flower yields and those currently achieved by commercial growers under optimal conditions. Data from 2018 collected from commercial cannabis growers in Canada found projected yields ranged from as low as 3.36 grams of dry flower per square meter to as high as 3,590 grams.[2] While there is …
