Growing Cannabis In Maine

Maine is the northerly state in the New England region of the United States, covering a total area of 35,385 square miles, making it the thirty-ninth largest. With a population of approximately 1.3 million people, it’s America’s forty-second most populated state, with it’s capital being Augusta, and Portland the largest city.

Growing cannabis seeds in Maine has been legal for medical marijuana patients since 1999, with the state being one of the first to relax and implement a medical cannabis program. Covering a wide selection of ailments and conditions, it allowed registered patients to possess up to two and one half ounces of cannabis buds, and legally grow up to six mature plants, as well as obtain their medical cannabis from one of the state licensed dispensaries.

With a small majority of voters approving Question 1 of the Cannabis Legalization Act, in 2016, Maine no longer has separate rules for registered medical cannabis patients. As from January 7 2017, all residents of Maine, over the age of 21, will be legally able to grow their own cannabis, for either recreational and medical purposes.

There are certain qualifying conditions that must be met, and limits on the number of plants that can be grown and amounts of harvested cannabis you can posses, but generally, growing cannabis seeds in Maine, up to six mature plants, is legal and permitted. You cannot sell your produce, or grow in multiple places. You must be over the age of twenty-one and the plants must be grown on private property.

Staying within the rules provides the safest way of growing cannabis seeds in Maine. The few, simple laws are easy to understand and adhere to;

You must be over 21 to grow cannabis seeds in Maine.
You can grow an unlimited amount of seedlings (smaller than 24 inches taller and 18 inches wide).
You can grow up to 12 immature plants (taller than 24 inches, but not yet in flower).
Only 6 flowering plants are permitted at any one time.
Personal possession is limited to the total harvest of six plants.
Grow only in an authorized property or your own residence.
Outdoor grown plants must be on your own property.
Plants grown outdoors must not be visible from the public road.
The plants must be clearly labeled with your name and drivers license number for identification purposes.

With the rules allowing all qualifying adults to legally grow cannabis seeds in Maine from 7th January 2017, many people are expected to begin growing both indoors and outside this year. If you are new to growing cannabis seeds in Maine, it is important that you understand the differences in the types of seeds available, as well the the advantages and disadvantages with both indoor and outdoor growing methods and choices.

Growing cannabis indoors in Maine allows for a far greater level of control over the plants environment. There are many factors that affect the plants ability to grow, flower and mature, improving these aspects can often produce bigger yields of higher quality buds. Air movement and quality can be controlled with fans and filters, while additional CO2 can lead to considerably enhanced growth in both the vegetative, and flowering stages.

Purchasing high quality lamps can enhance yields, with Metal Halide bulbs emitting higher quantities of blue light, perfect for strong vegetative development, while Sodium bulbs are the preferred option for flowering, generating larger amounts of the red spectrum light necessary to produce thick, dense flowers and buds. With bulbs running between twelve hours a day in flower, and between eighteen and twenty-four hours while the plant is in it’s vegetative stages, running costs and power usage needs to be considered. While 600 watt lights produce a higher level of lumens, the power usage is 50% higher than a 400 watt unit, costing more money to run over the course of a plant’s life.

Having a greater degree of control over the plant’s environment does make growing cannabis in Maine indoors, far easier, and offers a larger selection of strains to choose from. Reducing the lights to a 12/12 on-off regime, automatically sends standard cannabis plants to flower, and if you purchased feminized seeds, the plants will begin to flower, bud and produce cola’s requiring an average of eight weeks to completely ripen and mature. See all our Cannabis seeds for sale.

There is a wide a diverse selection of feminized cannabis seeds, from faster flowering, Indica plants, to the taller, longer-flowering, Sativa dominant varieties. Each strain offers a different set of traits, characteristics and attributes, from the intensely flavorsome Blue Dream, to the hard-hitting and potently energizing Green Crack.

Of course, growing cannabis seeds in Maine doesn’t have to be done indoors, the law also allows for outdoor growing, as long as it’s on your own property and not public land. The permitted number of plants remains the same, six in flower (mature) and a maximum of twelve in vegetative growth (immature), however this can cause an issue, as all the plants will begin to flower at approximately the same time, requiring you to remove the six weakest plants, allowing only the six strongest and best developed to flower and mature.

Autoflowering seeds offer a fast and exciting alternative to the more traditional cannabis seeds, growing and flowering simultaneously over a period of between ten to twelve weeks. A perfect choice for planting outdoors during the Spring and early Summer, capable of producing small but good quality harvests, while feminized and regular seeds are still classed as immature.

Understanding the different ways of growing cannabis seeds in Maine allows many growers a variety of options, from cheap, outdoor set-ups, through to more elaborate and expensive indoor growing areas. Whichever method of growing suits your needs, style and budget, buying the best quality cannabis seeds ensures the highest quality buds and harvest. Too many growers become depressed after growing their first crop, often left wondering what they did wrong, producing lower quality buds with little flavor or high.

For some growers this is due to the methods and techniques they used to grow their plants, for others it’s down to low quality seeds and genetics. You can avoid a lot of this disappointment by purchasing good quality seeds with the best genetics. We offer an assortment of the highest quality seeds, all with guaranteed delivery and germination. Produced and supplied by I Love Growing Marijuana, one of the world’s leading online suppliers of quality marijuana and cannabis seeds, receive the best seeds, and all the help and expert knowledge you could require to begin growing cannabis seeds in Maine this coming season.

Feminized Seeds

Devoid of all male chromosomes, feminized cannabis seeds are the preferred choice of both indoor and outdoors growers across the United States. Guaranteeing female only plants, and a wide choice of flavors and effects, feminized seeds are the most commonly purchased form of cannabis seeds online.

Regular Seeds

Regular cannabis seeds are generally avoided by the average grower, producing either a male or female plant. While growers usually only want to grow cannabis plants for their buds and cola’s, commercial growers often need a male plant to fertilize and pollinate their female’s to create future generations of seeds.

Autoflowering Seeds

Perfect for fast, outdoor harvests, Autoflowering marijuana seeds are easy to grow and offer a quick, cheap alternative to indoor growing. If you are just beginning to consider growing cannabis seeds in Maine, auto’s offer the best option for outdoors, producing smaller harvests, but of a quality similar to regular and feminized plants, in a fraction of the time, and requiring little care or previous experience.

Medical Seeds

Purchasing regulated medical cannabis seeds is less important in Maine than it was. With the legalization of recreational use, there is little requirement or benefit in registering as a medical cannabis patient. All strains offer a variety of medical traits and attributes, varying from stress relief and increasing appetite, to reducing chronic pain, arthritis and headaches.

With growing cannabis seeds in Maine now legal for all adults over the age of twenty-one, many are expected to begin growing this coming season. Achieving a successful harvest requires planning, a small amount of knowledge about how to grow cannabis, and a selection of good quality seeds and strains.

To assist you with each of these points, we have compiled a Growing Marijuana Guide 2017. Divided into monthly segments, this easy to follow guide will explain which strains are best suited to outdoor growing, when to plant them, and how to achieve the longest, heaviest harvests possible, starting in July and providing high quality buds through until the Fall.

Growing Cannabis In Maryland

Located in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, Maryland covers a total area of just under twelve and half thousand square miles, making it the forty-second largest in the United States. For a small state it’s heavily populated, with the fifth largest density in America, a population of six million people, make it the nineteenth most populated state. The state capital is Annapolis, while the largest city is Baltimore, in the Baltimore-Washington metro area.

Growing cannabis seeds in Maryland isn’t permitted, either under state or federal law, and although the state’s views and rules governing the possession and use of cannabis are slowly softening, it seems there is a long way to go until it adopts a more liberal approach to the use of and growing cannabis seeds in Maryland.

Maryland isn’t as harsh, or as anti-cannabis as some states however, it has decriminalized small amounts of cannabis for personal possession, and although possession of amounts, up to ten grams, is only a civil offence, and as such incurs a fine of a maximum $100. However, subsequent offences can increase the maximum fine to $500. Using cannabis in public also carries a maximum fine of up to $500. Possession of more than ten grams of dried buds, and up to fifty pounds, is a misdemeanor, punishable with a year incarceration and a maximum fine of $1,000.

2014 saw Maryland legislate for the legal possession and use of medical cannabis. Unfortunately, the laws passed only allow for the use of edible forms of cannabis extract, and not buds in their natural state. It will allow registered patients to possess up to thirty days supply, purchased from one of the state-licensed dispensaries. Unfortunately there are no state-licensed dispensaries open yet, and as the law is not yet operational, no currently registered medical cannabis patients.

There are currently no set laws regarding growing cannabis seeds in Maryland. Anyone caught growing will be arrested and charged under either the possession or intent to distribute laws currently in place. While possession of up to fifty pounds of cannabis may be punished by a year in jail under possession laws, if the state believes you were growing with the intent to supply, the same amount of cannabis could get you five years in jail.

While it is virtually impossible to grow a plant weighing under ten grams, the decriminalized amount, growing only a few plants will seldom raise suspicion. However, the more cannabis plants you are growing, the greater the chances are that the state will charge you with intent to supply, rather than the lesser charge of possession. As a general rule, growing a few, high quality plants in Maryland, is safer, and incurs lesser penalties should you be discovered.

Ways Of Growing Cannabis In Maryland

With no permitted amounts, growing cannabis seeds in Maryland is illegal and prohibited for all, including future medical cannabis patients. Cultivating cannabis can be charged under possession, or intent to distribute laws, so keeping the number of plants you grow to an absolute minimum, limits the possible consequences of being caught. Growing indoors often produces the best quality buds, but is more difficult to deny if discovered. Outdoor plants, grown away from your residence reduces the risks, but also the amount of care and attention you can give them.

Growing cannabis seeds in Maryland indoors requires a small amount of initial investment. Lights, fans and the construction of an area, or purchase of a tent or bud box can be costly, but once obtained, will provide the means to grow cannabis all year round. With better control of the plants environment, growing high quality cannabis is quicker and easier indoors, and allows for a far greater selection of strains. Feminized seeds offer the best choice, producing guaranteed female-only plants, capable of generating the highest quality buds. See all our Cannabis seeds for sale.

Outdoor growers have a longer wait for their harvest, with most regular and feminized cannabis seeds requiring approximately eight weeks to completely flower and mature. Standard cannabis plants have two different phases to their lives; the vegetative stage, where the plants grows quickly, developing leaves and branches, and the flowering stage, when the plants react to the increasing hours of darkness during late Summer and early Fall, commencing and stimulating the production of buds and cola’s, cherished by growers everywhere.

With the reduction in daily light hours to approximately twelve hours per day, outdoor cannabis plants will begin to flower, choosing a fast-finishing strain ensures the plant will achieve peak ripeness and maturity before the night temperatures reduce too low, causing possible mold or bud rot problems. Many of the slower flowering, Sativa dominant strains require more time to mature, and are better grown in more southerly states, with warmer temperatures during the Fall and early weeks of Winter.

Autoflowering seeds have grown in popularity over the last few years, with improved quality and yields now producing buds similar to those grown from either feminized or regular seeds. The preferred choice of outdoor and ‘guerrilla growers’ across the United States, these feminized seeds remain squat and compact, often creating one large, central cola and a selection of smaller side branches. Unlike standard or conventional cannabis seeds, autoflowering plants will not grow tall, or large, having no separate vegetative or flowering period.

Regardless of the number of hours of darkness autoflowering plants receive, they begin to flower once they become established and are past the seedling stage. Requiring an average of ten to twelve weeks, the plants grow and flower simultaneously, often maturing during mid-late Summer. Although the harvests are much lower than those from standard cannabis plants, the speed and ease with which these seeds can be grown has given rise to them being referred to on many of the 420 forums as ‘throw-and-grow-seeds’.

Growing cannabis seeds in Maryland is illegal. With no permitted amounts, producing your own recreational or medical cannabis is fraught with risk and the possibility of incarceration. If you are considering growing cannabis seeds in Maryland this season, ensure you buy the best quality seeds for your needs. Cannabis seeds are available in several different formats, incorporating a large number of strains. Buying the best seeds for your garden and growing style is paramount in achieving a high quality, worthwhile harvest of the sort of buds you want to enjoy. With flavors ranging from fruity to spicy, as well as high yielding strains, medicinal and increased THC varieties, purchasing the right cannabis seeds for your needs is essential.

Feminized Seeds

Selected by indoor and outdoor growers all around the world for their guaranteed female-only plants, feminized cannabis seeds are the most commonly sold marijuana seeds online. Choose from a wide number of strains, including Blue Dream, Girl Scout Cookies and the classic Sour Diesel, all available here, with guaranteed delivery and germination.

Regular Seeds

Predominately purchased by commercial growers and breeders, regular cannabis seeds produce either a male, or female plant. While standard growers have no requirements for male plants, as they produce pollen for fertilization, rather than flowers and buds, seed producers and clone generators require these seeds for breeding and wholesale plant creation programs.

Autoflowering Seeds

The obvious choice for many outdoor growers due to the ease and speed with which they grow and flower. A perfect choice for growing outdoors during the Summer months, capable of generating high quality buds in the quickest time possible. All our recommended autoflowering cannabis seeds are feminized, guaranteeing female-only plants.

Medical Seeds

Although Maryland passed laws allowing for a medical cannabis program to be created back in 2014, as yet, there are no state-licensed dispensaries. Even when there are, buying natural medicinal buds will not be permitted. We offer a selection of medical cannabis seeds, each with varying medicinal attributes. All our recommended seeds are guaranteed to germinate, ensuring you receive the freshest, most mature seeds possible.

Growing cannabis seeds in Maryland, both indoors and outside is illegal and could land you in jail. Minimizing the risks, and growing only a few, select, high quality plants offers a safer option, being harder to convict you of intent to sell or distribute. Discreet ‘guerrilla-growing’ can reduce the risks further, especially when performed in remote, uninhabited parts of the state. With this years growing season soon about to begin, planning your future cannabis harvest begins now.
