Off-season marijuana crops outdoors

Many areas offer the chance to perform several outdoor crops per year. We don't need to be in Tropical zones and have an almost constant natural photoperiod to do so.

Synthetic cannabis and cannabinoids

Synthetic cannabinoids are making their way into the market as a legal substitute for marijuana, because they can be packaged and sold in smart shops, where they are totally legal and can be bought as a substitute for the plant. But don't be fooled: products like Spice and others have nothing to do with marijuana. They are based on chemicals of dubious quality, which have not been tested on humans, and sold as recreational drugs, marketed with neither dosing instructions nor health warnings.
Alchimiaweb strongly recommends NOT TO BUY THESE PRODUCTS for your own health safety.

The SCROG cannabis growing system

The SCROG technique allows you to maximize the yield of your growroom with very few plants by using a single mesh or screen to train their branches. This growing system is specially recommended when growing vigorous strains, which can grow too much indoors and need some type of training to be grown under optimal conditions.
