How To Start Marijuana Seeds In DWC System

A deep water culture setup is excellent for the personal use marijuana grower. Starting marijuana seeds for this cannabis growing method is rather easy. First time DWC cannabis growers won't have to worry about failure as this method is excellent for germinating marijuana seeds. Start with standard rockwool seedling cubes.

Soak them in water and get your marijuana seeds ready. When your cubes have soaked up enough water take them to a bathtub and hold it loosely. Give them 2 or 3 hardy shakes. (DO NOT SQUEEZE OUT!)

A few hard shakes will release lots of water. Making air pockets within the cube itself. These air pockets are very important for marijuana seeds germination.

By shaking out the cube you keep your marijuana seed from soaking to death...too much moisture will kill the marijuana seedlings. Poke the marijuana seed in the rockwool cube where the hole is pre-made. If you find that's too big for your marijuana seeds, turn the cube over and poke a smaller hole.

With most of the water out, pick the marijuana seeds you want to grow and drop them in the hole about 1/4"-1/2" down. Carefully squeeze the hole closed and place in a humidity dome. Light isn't all that important until the marijuana seed sprouts, however its very important to keep the temps around 80F.

Warmth will speed up the process considerably. Within 4 to 7 days (up to 14) you should see marijuana seedlings poking out of the cube. The tap root will grow faster than the marijuana plant.

When this occurs move the cubes to a 2 gallon rooter DWC bucket with 3" net pot holes with a few rocks on the bottom to support the cube. Leave plenty of space for the roots to grow.

This method of marijuana seed germination isn't too difficult to learn. It might take a few times to master, but use the free marijuana seeds most marijuana seed banks offer to learn on.

These free marijuana seeds are excellent way to learn germination without possibly ruining the best marijuana seeds you actually want to grow.

Deep Water Culture is excellent for the personal use marijuana grower who plants a few marijuana seeds. The DWC method of gardening cannabis is known to produce heavy yields.
