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).

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.

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.

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.

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.
