Growing cannabis at home has gained significant popularity, providing enthusiasts with control over their product’s quality and reducing costs in the long run. Nearly half of home growers (49%) turn to the internet for guidance, while the rest lean on friends, family, or their own green thumbs. Seeds are slightly more popular than clones, with 44% opting for seeds and 13% for clones—but 40% of adventurous growers use both.
Most growers (72%) stick to the tried-and-true soil or compost method, proving that sometimes, you just can’t beat the classics. When it comes to stocking up on supplies, 59% head to their local hardware or garden store, while others take the high-tech route, ordering from online cannabis cultivation shops (32%).
Despite the love for DIY, many are keen on automation—74% would likely use an automated system to take the guesswork out of growing. But it’s not all smooth sailing; pests (37%) and producing top-quality buds (29%) remain the biggest headaches. Still, the community thrives, fueled by the challenge and the ultimate reward: a homegrown stash that’s truly your own.
