About this episode
In this week’s Grow Guides we’re getting seasonal and practical, focusing on the challenges that come with growing through the colder months. We kick things off with a winter and Christmas survival guide, covering how low temperatures, dry air, and slower plant metabolism can quietly cause problems if you don’t adapt your setup. We also talk about grower stocking fillers and Christmas gifts that actually get used, no gimmicks, no shelf-fillers, just genuinely useful bits of kit and tools that make life easier in the grow room. From there we tackle the early harvest temptation. Chopping before Christmas might sound appealing, but rushing a plant nearly always backfires. We explain why patience pays off and what really happens when you pull a plant too early. To wrap up, we run through the most common winter grow mistakes that ruin Christmas harvests, from overwatering cold roots to ignoring humidity swings, and how to avoid turning a festive grow into a disappointing one. A timely episode packed with real-world advice to keep your winter grows healthy, stress-free, and worth the wait.
