Talk to a knowledgeable person at your local cannabis store or grow shop to find the right strain for your situation.

Germinate the seed properly. This involves soaking the seed in water for a few hours, and then planting it in a moist growing medium such as soil or a seed starter kit.

Take care of your cannabis plants by watering them regularly and providing them with the right amount of sunlight, nutrients, and other care. Keep an eye on your plants for signs of pests or diseases, and take action if necessary to keep your plants healthy.
