Dark Storm

Control humidity with good airflow, pruning of lower growth and targeted ventilation; keep relative humidity lower during late flower to prevent bud rot.

Switch to a 12/12 light schedule once your canopy fills the intended space and plants show maturity signs, usually after a strong veg period of 4–6 weeks.

Use a bloom formula higher in phosphorus and potassium with moderate nitrogen reduction, and feed according to runoff EC rather than fixed schedules.

Monitor frequently, use sticky traps and biological controls first, and apply targeted organic treatments if infestations gain a foothold.

Look for grey or white fuzzy patches, brown spots inside buds and a sharp musty smell, and remove affected material immediately.

Yes, container grows give more control over drainage and root protection which is valuable in Swansea's moist conditions.

Flush with plain water for 7–14 days depending on feeding regime to reduce excess salts and sharpen flavours prior to harvest.

Light training such as LST or topping helps even canopy and improves airflow; aggressive training is not required but can boost yields indoors.

Dry slowly at 18–21°C and 50–60% RH for 7–14 days then cure in jars, burping daily for the first week to develop flavour and smoothness.

High humidity cannabis cultivation raises risk of botrytis and powdery mildew with Dark Storm, so increase ventilation, lower humidity during late flower and remove dense lower foliage to improve airflow.
