Growing Tips for Anesthesia Seeds
Anesthesia seeds are tricky to grow if you have limited experience harvesting your own cannabis plants. This strain prefers warmth, sunlight, and fresh air to thrive. Indoor growers will need nutrient-rich soil, ample lighting, and the ideal temperature and humidity to produce favorable yields. Outdoor growers with access to a greenhouse will have an easier time bringing this strain to harvest. If you don’t have access to a greenhouse, then you will need to carve out a window of good weather, typically during the summertime, depending on where you live, to bring this strain to fruition. Since this strain was originally bred in Spain, it requires a Mediterranean-type environment to really hit its stride.
These plants grow shorter than most marijuana plants, so providing them with ample space is easy. You can even grow multiple plants in a smaller area to double or triple your yields.
Providing a consistent temperature range of 70-85 degrees Fahrenheit and ensuring relative humidity levels stay below 40-60% during flowering are critical for optimal growth. Outdoor cultivation requires a warm, humid climate with lots of sunlight to produce bud-rich plants. Low-stress training is the ideal method for autoflowering strains, especially short auto strains. This method is low-maintenance and will ultimately lead to higher yields. During the vegetative stage, you should provide 18-20 hours of light each day. You will need to change the light cycle from 18-20 hours to a 12/12 cycle to induce the flowering stage of growth. This change will get you through flowering and into harvest.
Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest
- Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Anesthesia strain to harvest after a flowering period of 60-70 days.
- Yields: While Indoor yields are around 450 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 500 grams per plant. For first-time growers, these yields are amazing. Especially when you consider that you can grow multiple plants in a smaller area and increase your yields exponentially.
- Harvest: Outdoor grows should be ready to harvest around the end of October through early November.
Anesthesia Terpenes: Herbal and Pungent
The Anesthesia terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while pinene is the secondary terpene.
- Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – The spicy and peppery terpene is found in black pepper, cinnamon, and cannabis plants.
- Pinene: Secondary Terpene – Found mostly in pine needles, conifer trees, and cannabis plants, this terpene gives marijuana its piney and earthy flavor and aroma.
