Big Bud can be grown outdoor, where its size could reach up to 5 feet or more.

It thrives well in warm climates, but indoor, it does even better with a hydroponic setup. Despite the massive flowers, it does have thick stalks that are able to hold the weight.

Even so, growers should be mindful and be ready to provide support using tensioned wires or strings.

While it is fairly easy to grow, this plant needs early topping and bending, which allows a more horizontal growth.


Flowering Time

Indoors

In 7 to 9 weeks, including the curing time, expect to have a yield of 12 to 20 ounces per square meter.

This is when you grow Big Bug using hydroponics and use the Sea of Green (SOG) method of growing.

The reflective interior surface of the grow tent ensures that more light reaches the hard to reach parts of the plant as it grows.
