10 Christmas gifts to captivate cannabis growers

If you love growing cannabis, you’ll already know how much time, effort, and cash it takes for plants to produce the best yield. So, if you’ve got a friend or relative who loves it as much as you do, you can show your appreciation on these important dates by making their work a little easier, with a truly useful present that will help them grow their marijuana. There’s no doubt these products will make them smile – and, who knows, you might even get a sample of their flowers as a thank you!

For a ‘normal’ person, growing cannabis may be nothing more than caring for a plant; but, for a cannabis grower, it is far more than just a hobby: it is a lifestyle that requires patience, dedication, and a genuine love for the plant. And for a true grower, few things can beat receiving a thoughtful and practical gift in the holidays. You can choose from high-tech devices to fun and extravagant accessories: the options are endless. Whatever you choose, your gift will definitely change the way that person grows cannabis.

So use this list as a starting point to help you choose the right gift (or gifts) for your fellow cannabis grower. Once you have the gift ready, don’t forget to wrap it in a nice paper printed with marijuana leaves… Then hand it over and watch their face light up with joy as they open it!

1- A mini grow kit

If your friend is planning to grow cannabis or has been telling you that they want to start growing for the first time, you can give them a starter kit (like Pot for Pot), which comes with everything needed to get into this noble art. This mini kit makes growing cannabis as easy as growing a cactus, because it basically contains everything a rookie grower needs to get started. And beyond getting a dazzling harvest, it will help them understand the complexities of cannabis cultivation, so they can be equipped with the right knowledge to tackle bigger adventures.

2- Quality cannabis seeds

But what to do if your loved one is already an experienced grower? In that case, the best thing you can give them are cannabis seeds. Every grower has their preferences, but there are also certain seeds that everyone wants to plant (they may be too expensive, highly exclusive, or just difficult to get hold of). Whichever the case, if you want to find the seed that that person likes, start by looking for it at Kannabia. If you’re not sure which strain it is, you can even get them some seeds of rare cannabis strains like Apple&Bananas, Sunset Sherbet, Amnesi-K Haze, or Pure Skunk Go Fast.

3- A digital pH/EC meter

A digital pH or EC meter is an essential tool for any cannabis grower. These devices measure the pH (alkalinity or acidity) or electrical conductivity of the nutrient solution, which helps to maintain the correct levels for plants. If your friend is already a serious grower, they may already have one, even if it’s just a basic model that merely fulfils its basic function. So, you could get them a more sophisticated meter that comes with several other features, such as increased accuracy, automatic temperature compensation, easy-to-use design, high durability, intuitive controls, or easy-to-read displays.

4- Grow room glasses

Powerful grow lights, especially bright HPS or LEDs, are not only too intense, but can also make it difficult to see the right colours and detect problems in time. Do you want to help your loved one to become more ‘professional’ in cannabis cultivation? Get them a pair of grow room glasses to protect their eyes and give them a dazzling look. There are plenty of options, including some fun glasses that any quirky grower would love to wear.

5- A specialised growing book

Give someone a bud and they’ll enjoy it for a day. Give them the knowledge of how to grow cannabis and they will enjoy it for life. That’s the power of knowledge; and you can give it to your fellow grower with a book on cultivation – a perfect gift for anyone who loves learning even more about the growing process. And there are many books you can gift. One of them is Ed Rosenthal’s Marijuana Grower’s Handbook, which contains everything a new grower needs to grow outstanding cannabis plants. For a more experienced type of grower, you can get Marijuana horticulture by Jorge Cervantes. They call it “The marijuana Bible” – and your friend will quickly learn why after you give it to them!

6- A propagation kit

Many growers often prefer to take cuttings from a mother plant to maintain their favourite genetics. For someone who takes home growing to the next level, creating cuttings from new plants is an essential job that saves time and money, because it means a faster cycle for the next grow. Cloning plants also eliminates the guesswork when creating new cuttings, basically leading to a perpetual inventory of new young plants. Master the art of making cuttings with this essential device and you’ll be close to perfecting the ultimate gift that keeps on giving.

7- A remote control camera

For any grower obsessed with their plants, this is an absolute must. You can keep an eye on your plants while you’re away! And it’s not really that expensive. This is a small security camera that connects to your mobile phone. You can open the app and see your plants at any time and from anywhere. It moves horizontally and vertically, and it features a zoom option. And with a two-way audio feature, you can even talk to your plants! It also balances out the bright lights in the grow room, and even offers night vision so you can see them during the dark cycle.

8- A jeweller’s magnifying glass to look closely at the trichomes

When the plant reaches maturity, the grower should know when to harvest based on the appearance of the trichomes. To be able to see this, a magnifying glass is an essential and affordable gift option that comes in handy. In this case, you have a couple of choices: You can always opt for a magnifying glass that has been designed specifically for gardening, but we prefer the type that jewellers use to look more closely at diamonds. You can also go a step further and get them a USB microscope – this works in exactly the same way but is much easier to use, and comes with lots of features that can help the modern cannabis grower.

9- A manicuring kit

Cannabis growers invest a lot of time and effort growing their plants, but the process doesn’t end there. The following step is to manicure your freshly harvested buds before drying and curing them. Trimming cannabis is a tedious process because you need to be very careful and delicate – and this is where a manicuring kit, especially one with good scissors, makes a fantastic gift. These kits also come with collecting trays with sieves which are not only helpful to trim the buds, but also help you collect as much kief as possible. And who doesn’t like a bit of kief?

10- Storage jars

Finally, any self-respecting grower must store their cannabis the right way to prevent it from decaying over time. If your loved one still keeps their cannabis in basic bags or containers, you can help them upgrade their system with storage jars specifically designed for cannabis, which are much better than plastic and don’t release any residue. And if you add some humidity control bags into the mix (such as those from the Bóveda brand), we assure you that you will have completed the life cycle of the plant in a truly impressive way!
