Growing
Updated 8/25/2017
The weather is warming up which means it's time to start planning your outdoor grow. If you've been thinking about growing marijuana outdoors here in Colorado (or pondering a move to our fine state so that you can), then you’ll need something to help you get started.
One option is to start with clones of other “mother” plants. You could get clones from friends or buy a few from a place like LaContes Clone Bar or Ballpark Holistic Dispensary, but it is important to remember that bringing clones into your grow might also introduce contaminants such a pests and disease to your other plants, though this is less of an issue when growing outdoors. Clones also tend to be less capable of handling stress and often experience transplant shock if not thoroughly rooted, so be sure to check your clones before purchase.
If you've got a collection of "bag seeds", you can try sprouting them indoors for future transplant, but keep in mind that these seeds might not be as viable as the ones you'd get from a dispensary or breeder. They may thrive indoors, for example, then burn up outdoors or offer little resistance to pests.

Of course, you won't be able to sprout cannabis seeds without knowing how to find them first. Though there are a number of dispensaries that occasionally sell marijuana seeds, there are only a few that continuously offer high-quality seeds at affordable prices.

Finding marijuana in Colorado is easy enough; finding seeds, on the other hand isn't quite there yet. Though there are some very reputable stores where you can find high-quality cannabis seeds in Colorado, those places are not as common as the average dispensary. Because of the limited number of seed distributors in Colorado, many residents have turned to online orders.
