Growing Tips for Cookie Monster Auto
Cookie Monster Auto is a tricky strain to grow, so if you don’t have prior cultivation experience, you might find it difficult to bring this strain to harvest. Cookie Monster Auto marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to the climate of the Mediterranean. Cookie Monster Auto cannabis seeds grow into dark plants with small leaves and burnt orange pistils. The buds and leaves are coated in crystal resin trichomes, making them appear sugary. If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need to hope for consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the perfect outdoor climate without having to put up with unexpected outdoor variables. These plants grow medium to tall height and can reach around 3-7 feet. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of 7 feet, you will need to trim and top your plants so they don’t grow to be unmanageable. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 68-78 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 30-70% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage. Growing indoors will ensure that the moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are constant and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. Topping and Low-stress training (LST) methods will benefit the growth of this strain. Both methods will control the canopy of this strain so that light and air reach the lower buds. The Cookie Monster Auto strain requires an 18-hour light cycle to reach the vegetative stage of growth. Because this strain is an autoflowering variant, it does need a change in the light cycle to induce the flowering stage of growth.
