Growing Tips for Fire OG
Fire OG is a cannabis cultivar that requires a master-level cultivator to grow to completion. Fire OG 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. Fire OG cannabis seeds produce plants with massive buds that are covered in thin, white hairs or pistils.
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 to a medium height and can reach around 3-7 feet tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of 7 feet, they will require more vertical space in outdoor grow setups.
The ideal temperature for these plants is around 65-80 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 30-50% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but lowering the humidity every week will help this plant grow. Growing indoors will ensure that the moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are consistent and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages.
Pruning, topping, and Low-stress training (LST) methods are the best training techniques for this particular strain of cannabis. If performed correctly and at the right time, these techniques will promote bud production and increase final yields. LST manipulates the plant to increase the size and density of the buds. Pruning and topping the plants will help control their height and the canopy, allowing light and air to reach the lower levels of the plant. The Fire OG strain requires an 18-20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative growth stage. This strain needs a change in the light cycle to induce the flowering stage of growth. A 12/12 cycle is necessary to get the plant from flowering to harvest.
Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest
- Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Fire OG strain to harvest after a flowering period of 70-80 days.
- Yields: While Indoor yields are around 400 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 450 grams per plant. These yields are a great reward after a difficult grow.
- Harvest: Outdoor growers can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of November, depending on when the seeds were planted.
Fire OG: Citrus and Pine
The Fire OG cannabis strain 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 limonene and myrcene are the secondary terpenes.
- Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – Spicy and peppery, caryophyllene is mostly found in cloves, black pepper, and cannabis plants.
- Limonene: Secondary Terpene – Limonene is found mostly in the rinds of citrus fruits such as lemons and oranges.
- Myrcene: Mother of All Terpenes – Myrcene is responsible for some cannabis strains’ earthy and woody flavor and aroma.
