The temperatures are dropping outside but things are warming up indoors.
This update on our indoor gardening project is focused on our couple of cannabis plants we are growing now that it has been legalized in Canada.
Our Mother plants bushed out nice and gave us a nice crop of cuttings which we will pick the strongest to grow out in the covered garden.
Plugs with Cuttings Potted Up into 2 Inch Pots
We potted the plugs first into tall 2 inch pots which their roots soon began to fill. We kept them on a heat mat and gave them a root stimulating fertilizer and were very happy with the results.
Cuttings Potted Up into 4 Inch Pots
Before they could get stressed we potted them into larger 4 inch pots, still on the heat mat and under full spectrum grow lights.
Mother Plants Starting to Flower
The mother plants were put on 12 light and 12 dark (taking advantage of our long nights so we don't have to cover them to darken them off.) We are budding them out and they are starting to flower nicely.
We took some tips from @Elamental ’s Backyard Cannabis Farming articles at:

Salad Greens from the Indoor Garden
Our indoor garden is providing us with lots of greens for our salads and hopefully some nice bud too!
