Growing Tips for Dr. Funk

Dr. Funk requires at least an intermediate-level grower to complete this strain's grow process. Dr. Funk marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to a warm Mediterranean-style climate. Dr. Funk cannabis seeds grow into vibrant green plants with medium leaves and buds. The buds are coated with resinous trichomes, making them appear dusty or sugary. If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the perfect outdoor climate without having to contend with unexpected outdoor variables — particularly important across many Canadian regions where temperatures can fluctuate significantly. These plants grow to a short/medium height and can reach around 60–150 centimetres tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of approximately 150 centimetres, you will be able to grow multiple plants in a smaller grow area to increase your overall yields. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 21–29 degrees Celsius and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 55–70% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but lowering the humidity gradually each week will help this plant thrive. Growing indoors will ensure that the higher humidity levels and moderate temperatures are consistent and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. Topping, pruning, and Low-Stress Training (LST) methods are the most beneficial techniques for this strain. If performed correctly, these techniques will help to increase the overall yields and improve bud production. Each of these methods will help to adjust the plant so that the canopy allows light and air to reach the lower levels, helping the buds grow to their fullest potential. The Dr. Funk strain requires an 18–20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative stage of growth. Changing the light cycle to a 12/12 cycle will induce the flowering stage of growth and help get your plants to harvest.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Dr. Funk strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55–65 days.
• Yields: Indoor yields are around 400 grams per square metre, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 450 grams per plant. These yields are quite solid, especially when you consider they come after a short flowering period.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers across Canada can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of October, depending on when the seeds were planted and local climate conditions.

Dr. Funk: Berry Berry Sweet

The Dr. Funk cannabis strain terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while myrcene and limonene are the secondary terpenes.
