The Power Plant – Is it Worth Growing?
Power Plant is an indica dominant hybrid originating from South Africa. It’s also known as Black Label, because it is the most sought after in the international weed circuit. It’s a high output, high yielding hybrid that produces a long lasting, sweet, powerful and highly potent smoke that will leave you feeling energetic and full.
A fast growing indica dominant, Power Plant can easily be harvested within 8 weeks and yields anywhere from 600+ grams to over 3000 grams per plant depending on the size of the plants. Just only five feminized cannabis seeds can produce close to 3000 grams of strong, potent bud. This is enough to yield enough of an amount for a regular couple to use to start their own marijuana business and to enjoy a small but enjoyable part-time business.
The most appealing aspect about Power Plant is its indica dominant nature. It features a strong kick with a distinct fruity, berry like taste. When smoked, the distinctive flavor becomes more pronounced.
Many people have experienced a sense of comfort and relaxation upon smoking Power Plant. Some even claim to feel “high”stoned”. While others say that they feel a heightened sense of awareness and enhanced moods. Others feel as if they have had an energizing cup of coffee and that the entire day has been turned into a kind of “happily ever after”.
What makes this type of weed so special? Most cannabis strains have a very low yield and low potency. With Power Plant, the buds are big, dense, strong and dense with a huge amount of resins in them. This resin content results in the plant having a much higher yield and potency than any other weed.
It’s also worth noting that this plant is much harder to grow than most other types of marijuana and is a very slow growing weed. Most strains can be grown fast with just the proper conditions but this plant needs a long period of time to mature.
Because of the nature of its potency, Power Plant must be grown in a humid, dark and fairly warm environment. If the buds are grown in an indoor environment, the buds need to be dried before being used. Although it’s a slow-growing weed, it takes about two to three years for the plant to reach full growth.
Another nice thing about the plant is that it can be grown as either an indoor or outdoor plant. Although it can be grown indoors, a good indoor environment is important for successful growing it.
For indoor growing, you will need an adequate amount of light and adequate humidity. The humidity should be at around 50% to be able to provide the necessary nutrients to your plant. Make sure the humidity doesn’t get too low, though, as this will cause mold to develop on the leaves. When trying to grow Power Plant, make sure it’s given enough room for all of the plants roots to grow.
It’s also important to know the growing time for your Power Plant to grow. This means knowing when the bud first sprouts out from the mother plant. When buds grow from the mother plant, they are small and fragile. They take a lot longer to reach the desired height and develop much slower than if they were developed from seedlings.
The first time that your buds sprout out, it will grow much faster than the seedlings do. However, the buds won’t always reach their full height right away and can take weeks to reach their final height.
The best time to harvest your Power Plant is after three to five days of growing time. This allows the buds to fully develop and the highest amount of nutrients.
Once the buds are fully developed, store the seeds in a cool, dry place and store them in a refrigerator or freezer to ensure that the buds don’t spoil. Just like with all kinds of plants, the buds can be transplanted and placed in another pot if you prefer to continue growing other strains of weed.
