Tag: Vegetative Phase

Vegetative phase is the phase where marijuana and cannabis plants experience lush foliage and the majority of their green leaf growth. For regular strains, you can maintain this phase by having light hit the plants for around 18 hours a day. This phase starts right after germination. This phase lasts until you decide to drop the light hours down to 12. Autoflowers will automatcially move onto the next phase.
