Preferred Climate

The Big Bud cannabis strain can be grown indoors or outdoors in warm climates. These plants can grow to be over 5 feet high in height. So, some prefer to grow it outdoors for maximum height potential.

However, some expert growers suggest creating a hydroponic setup indoors for growing Big Bud. This method not only develops massive-sized buds, but the stalks are extremely thick as well. This is necessary for the stalks to be able to hold up the weight of the massive flowers.

Flowering & Yield

When growing Big Bud indoors, the expected yield will be between 12 to 20 ounces per square meter. Including curing time, it should take about 7-9 weeks for the plants to flower completely. For the best results, be sure to provide support in areas where the branches become very heavy. This will prevent them from snapping or bending.

Using hydroponics and a method known as Sea of Green will help the plants yield the most, according to experts. Indoors, you’ll need an indoor grow tent.

Growing Big Bud outside is possible as well, although this plant thrives best in sunny, Mediterranean-like climates. This will yield you about 25 ounces or more per plant, with harvesting taking place in October.
