Is growing on a windowsill okay? Its been four months and I see no buds. I have only five leaves and I water them every day. What kind of food should I give them? Is something wrong?
Dear Born,
Cannabis can be grown on a windowsill, pro¬vided its a southern-facing window with unob¬structed full sunshine all day long (or close to it). The sunshine passing through a window reduces some of the light your plant will receive, but the important thing is that there’s enough sunlight to sustain vigorous growth. That said, most windowsills do not get enough sun to grow pot plants to fruition.
It sounds to me like your plant is drastically in need of more light and suffering from over¬watering as well. After four months, you should have huge bushes with hundreds of leaves and many branches. Your plant needs to be put out-side, or else you should consider supplementing the light inside with grow lights in order to save it and see more and better growth.
If you do grow on a windowsill in the future, be sure to start the plant in spring or summer. This way, you’ll have some vegetative time before the plant begins to flower around August and September, and you’ll be taking advantage of the natural light cycle outdoors—all within the comfort of your home.
