How Many Marijuana Seeds Can You Grow in One Pot?

The answer may be too obvious for many, but still many people ask this question a lot. It may be due to the fact that these people only have a small space for growing marijuana. If this is the case, they would want to maximize the use of the space they have by asking how many marijuana seeds can be planted in just one pot. It’s a pretty understandable question, really. However, the answer may disappoint some people. That is because only ONE seed can be planted in one pot. If you want to learn further about the reason behind this rule then you should keep reading.

One seed per pot

Again, you could only plant one marijuana seed in one pot. There are many reasons behind this. One is that many things could go wrong if you plant multiple marijuana seeds in just one pot. While it really does make sense when you think about it, think about the amount of growing medium and space you would save, right? But, it will cause you more harm than good in the long run.

Multiple seeds per pot

In theory, you could indeed plant multiple seeds in one pot provided that your pot is ginormous. But if it is not the case and you have just one regular pot, this is not advisable. This is because the multiple seeds that you plant on one pot will fight for root space once they start growing. And this is a major no-no because this will result to stunted growth and weak plants.

They would also be fighting for nutrients in the soil or in the growing medium as well. Planting multiple seeds in a pot is not the same as planting multiple seeds in one garden in an outdoor growing setting. These outdoor marijuana plants have all the rooting access they need because the soil they are planted on is not limited to the confines of a pot.

Also, when you plant more than one seed in a pot, you are not sure whether all these seeds are female. Therefore, if there are any males in the bunch, you run the risk of sexing or pollination. This will result to breeding instead. So if your goal is to harvest smokable weed in the near future, never plant multiple seeds in one pot.

Exceptions

However, if you are into breeding marijuana plants then you might be okay to consider planting more than one seed in just one pot. This is advisable especially if you have little growing space. This is actually a good idea since having several plants close by will increase the chances of pollination and breeding. But if you do this, you just have to make sure you don’t cram too much of them in one pot or you will still risk stunted growth and dying out of your marijuana plants.
