Dosing

Dosage for Dosido should be approached with caution due to its potency. It's advisable to start with small quantities, particularly for individuals prone to panic attacks or paranoia.

Growing

Dosido presents challenges for novice growers due to its preference for intermediate humidity levels and warmer climates. To enhance the development of vibrant purple hues in the leaves, growers can subject the plants to brief periods of cold temperatures during the night before the flowering stage.

Given its potent aroma, Dosido cultivation requires effective ventilation, which can be achieved through the use of carbon air filters or exhaust fans.

While Dosido typically yields a moderate harvest, growers can optimize production through training techniques like the "sea of green" method. This involves installing a screen above the plant canopy and securing the plants to it as they grow. This technique maximizes exposure to sunlight while efficiently utilizing space in the growing chamber.

Height

Dosido plants typically reach heights of up to 39 inches indoors, while outdoor cultivation can result in towering plants reaching up to 8 feet in height.

Humidity and Temperature

Dosido is versatile in its growth environments, suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. However, indoor growing is preferred by many growers to maintain precise control over temperature and humidity levels.

Dosido thrives in temperatures ranging from 75 to 82 degrees Fahrenheit, providing optimal conditions for its growth and development.

Flowering

The flowering time for Dosido is around seven to nine weeks. It produces an average yield, providing 17-31 ounces
