Growing Information
Detailed studies by cultivators indicate that maintaining optimal temperature, humidity, and light cycles is key, with typical flowering periods around 56-42 days for indoor and greenhouse conditions. For indoor cultivation, it is recommended that growers use a light cycle of 18 hours of light during the vegetative stage and transition to a 12/12 cycle during flowering. Reports from indoor growers have shown that using high-intensity discharge (HID) or LED lighting systems with at least 600-1000 watts yields the best results. Creme de Menthe grows to a compact 3 to 4 feet indoors and outdoors, ideal for those with limited space.

Growing Creme De Menthe requires moderate experience due to its specific environmental and nutritional needs. Creme De Menthe thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be precisely managed, although outdoor growing is possible in suitable climates. One of the advantages of growing Creme De Menthe Strain is its resilience to common issues such as pests and mold. This robustness makes it a reliable choice for growers who may be concerned about environmental factors or cultivation challenges.
