Fun Gift Ideas for Cannabis Growers

Have you got a green thumb in your friend’s circle or your family, and you want to give them a gift for their special day? Well, you’re in luck because there are many gifts you can give them. 

If your friend loves growing cannabis just like you, you already know they invest a lot of time, effort, love, and money in their plant to get a bountiful yield. And you can show your appreciation and make their job a little easier with a gift that will come in handy in growing cannabis. 

Whether it’s for their birthday, anniversary, or if they helped you fix your car, here are some of the best gifts you can give to cannabis growers in your life. These gifts are sure to put a smile on their face, and who knows, you might even get a sample of their harvest as a thank you!

1. Magical Butter Machine 

If your cannabis-loving friend loves infusing their own edibles, you can give them the Magical Butter Machine. If you know anything about making edibles, you already know that it’s kinda tough for beginners. 

The Magic Butter Machine makes preparing edibles way easier than it is. Essentially, this device helps you make cannabutter in a pinch, which can be added to any dish your friend fancies. 

Think of this device as somewhat of a rice cooker. All you need to do is add some butter and cannabis and wait for a couple of hours. The Magical Butter Machine will make the cannabutter on its own, which you need to collect, strain, and leave in the fridge for the night. 

At around $175, the Magical Butter Machine makes for a perfect gift for not only growers but also cannabis lovers in general. Frankly, your friend can even produce cannabutter and share it with the rest of the gang, so it’s a total win-win!

2. A Pot for Pot Mini

If your friend is planning to grow cannabis or has been telling you about wanting to grow cannabis, you can gift them A Pot for Pot Mini grow kit, which comes with everything they need to grow their first cannabis baby. 

This mini-grow kit makes growing cannabis as easy as growing a small succulent, which is great for new growers who need a jump start on growing the herb. Everything right out of the box. 

So, what’s in the box? Here are the following things that this A Pot for Pot Mini contains:

• A growing guide with step-by-step instructions
• A seed coupon so your friend can purchase the seed they desire 
• A 0.5-gallon container made with fiber to grow the plant
• A drain pan 
• A jiffy pellet for seed germination
• High-quality soil with all the nutrients with topsoil mix
• Beneficial bacteria
• Diatomaceous earth 
• Coco brick for aeration in the soil 
• Rooting booster 
• Trimming scissors 

Basically, it contains everything a new grower needs to start growing cannabis. This kit will help them understand the intricacies of cannabis cultivation, so they can be equipped with the right knowledge for future growth. And for $70, this one won’t even put a hole in your wallet!

3. Cannabis Seeds

But what do you do if your loved one is already an experienced grower? In that case, a grow kit is not the best gift, but what you can instead give them are specialized cannabis seeds. 

Every grower has a preference, but they also have seeds that they want to get their hands on but cannot just yet. Such seeds may be too expensive, exclusive, or elusive in the market. Whatever the case, try to find what that unicorn seed is for your loved one and start looking for it. 

Generally, you’ll find such specialized seeds at reputable seed banks, but you can also consider asking around in your local community or online forums. Remember, whichever seed bank you choose, make sure they are reputable, certified, and transparent about their products. 

If you’re unsure about the strain, you can even gift them some rare cannabis strain seeds, such as Malawi Gold, Panama Red, Amnesia Haze, Black African Magic, and Hindu Kush. Or, take a look at some of the most exotic cannabis strains that are guaranteed to blow your friend’s mind!

4. Grow Tent for Indoor Growers

Another excellent gift you can give your loved one, whether they are a novice or an experienced grower, is a grow tent. If you’re a cannabis grower, you already know everything about grow tents if you grow indoors. Simply put, they are small enclosures, like cabinets, that create an isolated environment for the cannabis plant to grow.

Grow tents offer terrific benefits over other forms of cannabis cultivation, even an indoor grow room; these tents are designed with a micro grow in mind and either come with or can be complemented with essential pieces of equipment like grow lights, fans, vents, carbon scrubbers, etc. 

Perhaps one of the biggest benefits of grow tents is their discreetness. If your pal lives in a country where cannabis is not legalized (yet), or they may want to keep it a secret, grow tents are a terrific choice. 

But how do you choose a good grow tent? If you gift something that’s not compatible, it’s of no use. Therefore, here are a few things to keep in mind before shopping for a grow tent. 

• Size: The first thing to consider when choosing a grow tent is the size. You need to choose a size that is appropriate for the number of plants your friend may grow. Of course, it also depends on the available space in their home or grow room.
• Durability: Next, consider the quality and durability of the tent. Look for tents that are made from high-quality materials, have sturdy frames, and are designed to withstand the wear and tear of daily use.
• Reflectivity: The tent's interior should have a reflective lining that maximizes the light the grow lights produce. A good reflective lining will improve the efficiency of the grow lights and increase the growth rate of plants.
• Ventilation: Proper ventilation is critical for the success of any indoor garden. Look for a grow tent with multiple vents that can be adjusted to control temperature and humidity levels. A good ventilation system will prevent mold and mildew from growing and improve air circulation.
• Price: The cost of a grow tent can vary widely, depending on the size and quality of the tent. Look for a tent that fits within your budget and offers good value for money. It’s a gift but still needs to be reasonable, so be sure to compare different options before making a final decision.

Summing it up, ensure that whichever grow tent you choose comes with high-quality, thick fabric and metal chassis and is compatible with essential peripherals like grow lights, fans, vents, etc. Otherwise, the grow tent may not be strong enough to support the plants.

5. A Fancy pH Meter

A digital pH meter is an essential tool for any cannabis grower. This device measures the pH (alkalinity or acidity) of the nutrient solution and the root zone of the plant, helping the grower maintain the right pH levels for their plants. 

And pH is critical for cannabis plants. If it is off even by a few degrees, the plant may fail to consume certain nutrients, leading to a ton of nutrient deficiencies and problems. And if your friend is already a serious grower, they may already have a pH meter.

But most cannabis growers only use basic pH meters that get the job done. But you can give them a fancy pH meter that comes with various other features like higher accuracy, automatic temperature compensation, user-friendly design, durability, intuitive controls, and easy-to-read displays. 

One of the best options here is the Apera pH Pocket Tester. It is a pH meter that can also measure the temperature, and this device is insanely reliable compared to most other devices on the market. 

The Apera pH Pocket Tester comes with a replaceable glass probe, which is replaceable, and features automatic calibration and automatic temperature compensation. And it has a wide pH range, so your friend can find many uses for this.

6. A Magnifier

When the plant reaches maturity, a grower must know when to harvest based on the appearance of trichomes. And to know that, they need a magnifier. Trichomes are tiny. So, you can give the cannabis grower in your life a magnifier, too.

This is an affordable gift option for cannabis lovers that’s quite useful. 

Here, you have a couple of options. You can always go for a magnifying glass designed specifically for gardening, or you can go with a jeweler’s loupe that jewelers use to take a closer look at diamonds. 

You can also go a step further and get them a USB microscope, which works the same way but is way more user-friendly and comes with a ton of features that can help a modern cannabis grower. Just avoid the Chinese ones, as they are usually of low quality and may not last very long. 

7. Common Culture Trim Tray

Cannabis growers invest a lot of time and effort in growing their cannabis plants, but it doesn’t end there. The next step is to dry and cure their freshly harvested cannabis buds, and while doing that, they must trim the buds. 

Trimming cannabis is again a tedious process because they need to be careful and gentle with the buds, and this is where the Common Culture Trim Tray comes in handy to make a terrific cannabis gift. 

This trimming tray makes trimming easier and fun, thanks to its excellent design that includes features like zero exposed rivets, smooth bottom that allows everything to glide with ease, foam pads at the bottom, a brush to collect the kief, a catch tray, a 150-micron screen, microscope, and trimming scissors. Plus, the tray is large, spill-resistant, thick, and ergonomic to use. 

But trimming buds is not the only thing this tray is useful for; it also helps you collect as much kief as possible from cannabis plant matter. And who doesn’t like kief? 

So, if your loved one is a fan of cannabis cultivation (and kief), consider gifting them the Common Culture Trim Tray. At $50, this is an excellent affordable gift option for cannabis growers and lovers. 

8. Storage Containers 

If your loved one is still storing cannabis in plastic bags or basic containers, you can help them upgrade with storage containers that are designed for cannabis. These storage containers are a lot better than plastic for storing cannabis, and they also don’t leech out plastic, which can hamper the flavor and even be harmful to health. 

One of the best storage containers in the market right now is the Libbey BudShield, which is an all-glass container set of 3, costing around $35. It isn’t the most subtle of containers, but it is high-quality, appealing, and works like a charm. 

On the other hand, you can even give them the Staze, which is another unique container that is smell-proof and comes with a built-in airtight vacuum sealer. Cost? $18! But these aren’t the only ones. You can find storage containers in all shapes, sizes, and prices. Choose one that suits your preferences and order a few. 

9. Grow Lights

How much do you love the person you are gifting something to? If the answer is: a lot, you cannot go wrong with some cannabis-specific grow lights. For a cannabis grower, grow lights are usually one of the most expensive pieces of equipment to invest in, and no grower in the world would reject a free set of grow lights!

So, if you want to make their day and help their plants grow bigger than ever, give them grow lights. And when it comes to growing lights, you are spoilt for options. Grow lights come in a variety, including HPS, HIDs, LEDs, and CFLs. We recommend LED lights. 

LED lights are a bit pricey but offer benefits that other grow lights cannot match. They are energy-efficient, last a long time, and can be customized per the plant’s requirements. 

There are several options out there, depending on your budget. Plus, the number of plants you grow, the space available, and a lot of other factors matter, so we can’t name one particular grow light. Expensive LEDs with a proper spectrum work the best, but many inexpensive ones give you a bang for your buck. Thus, don’t hesitate to do some research before you dig into your wallet. 

With the perfect grow light, your friend can give his plant exactly the kind of light it needs for the best growth. 

10. Carbon Dioxide Rain System

This is yet another expensive gift but a worthy one. Cannabis plants grow well in a natural (yet controlled) indoor environment, but one can supplement the plants with carbon dioxide for accelerated growth. 

Carbon dioxide is essential for cannabis growth since it is used for photosynthesis to produce energy. So, the higher the CO2 in the environment, the better the plant grows. And you can expect an increase in yield by as much as 20% with supplemented carbon dioxide. 

Here, you would need to get compressed CO2 along with a regulator to make it rain over the plants. It is an effective way of increasing CO2 in a grow room in a controlled manner, but do note that it is expensive. 

PROTIP: Avoid purchasing compressed CO2 from hydroponics or gardening stores, as they are generally sold at a markup. Instead, get the cans from your local welding supply store, and choose a refillable one. 

11. Sticky Traps for Pests

One of the funkiest gifts you can give a cannabis grower is a pest trap. Yes, it sounds funny (and not in a good way), but you’d be surprised at how important this tool is for cannabis growers. Yet, many growers often overlook it. 

Ask your grower buddy and they will tell you just how much of a nuisance pests can be for cannabis plants. And in severe cases, pests can even kill the plant. In that case, sticky traps come in handy in catching flying insects like gnats or fruit flies. 

These giant yellow sticky traps generally cost around $50 and can be ordered from Amazon. Then, you need to place them in areas where insects are more likely to hop before flying straight to your plant, like the windowsill, doorways, or next to a light source. 

And don’t worry, some of the high-quality sticky traps are safe to use with honeybees or bumblebees, so you won’t be harming the friendly buds around you. Still, we recommend caution as sometimes these traps can target other beneficial insects, too. 

12. Grow Room Glasses

Do you want to give a nerdy gift or help your loved one be more “professional” in growing cannabis? Give them room glasses, which not only protect the eyes but look cool. 

But wait, what’s going to harm the eyes in a garden? Powerful grow lights, especially the HPS or bright LED grow lights. Such lights are not only too intense but can also make it difficult to see the right colors and spot problems on time. 

The best grow glasses are offered by Method 7, which helps you see your plants in the correct color regardless of the grow light setting. However, it isn’t the only one. There are a ton of options you can choose from, including some goofy pairs of glasses that a quirky grower would love to adorn.

13. Growing Book

Give someone a bud and they will get high for a day; give them the knowledge of growing cannabis and they will get high for life. That’s the power of knowledge, and you can give this to your grower buddy with a growing book. 

A book is a perfect gift for cannabis growers since they love learning more about the process, especially when they are particular about the things they use. But which book should you get? Of course, Harry Potter wouldn’t suffice (alhough that’s an excellent book). 

There are many cannabis cultivation books you can give. One of them is the Marijuana Grower’s Handbook, which is ideal for new growers. This book by Ed Rosenthal, which consists of everything a new grower would need to grow terrific cannabis plants. This book takes a thoughtful, clean approach to growing. 

For a more experienced grower, you can give them What a Plant Knows by Daniel Chamovitz. It is not related to growing cannabis as such, but it gives an insight into how a plant reacts to its environment — something every cannabis grower will appreciate knowing about. And it has an entire section dedicated to photoperiod plants! 

You can also give them Green: A Field Guide to Marijuana, a coffee table book that is a go-to guide for some of the most famous cannabis strains. It includes 170 strains, their lineage, effects, and flavor profiles. Again, this one is written by Ed Rosenthal, so it’s easy to go through and thoughtful in its approach. 

14. Storz & Bickel Mighty+ Vaporizer

To round things off, you can give your cannabis grower buddy a vaporizer so they can experience their bountiful yield unlike ever before. And here, the best vaporizer is the Storz & Bickel Mighty+. 

This vaporizer costs around $400, but don’t let the price scare you because it is worth every single penny. It is reliable, can burn a lot of cannabis at a time, and produces a thick, lush cloud every time. This vaporizer includes USB-C charging, a ceramic chamber, and quick heat-up time, and it is much easier to clean and maintain, too. 

And you cannot go wrong with this or any other vaporizer from Storz & Bickel — they are known for producing some of the best vaporizers on the market, including the Volcano. So, if you think Mighty+ is too expensive, you can always go with one of their cheaper products, like Crafty+. 

If you still didn’t like any of the options above, here are a few other items you may be interested in:

1. Cannabis-inspired art: Cannabis-inspired art can be a fun and unique way for growers to decorate their grow space.
2. Magnetic stash box: A magnetic stash box is a discreet and convenient way for cannabis growers to store their product and keep it within reach.
3. Cannabis-scented candles: Cannabis-scented candles can provide a relaxing and calming atmosphere for growers to enjoy while tending to their plants.
4. Novelty cannabis-themed clothing: T-shirts, hats, and other clothing items with cannabis-themed designs can be a fun and quirky gift for a cannabis grower.
5. CBD-infused bath bombs: CBD-infused bath bombs can provide a relaxing and therapeutic experience for cannabis growers who want to unwind after a long day of tending to their plants.
6. Herbal tea infuser: A herbal tea infuser can make cannabis-infused teas, which can be a soothing and relaxing way for growers to enjoy their product.
7. Decorative rolling trays: Rolling trays with unique designs or cannabis-themed patterns can be an amazingly fun and functional gift for a cannabis grower.
8. Cannabis-infused cooking oils: Cannabis-infused cooking oils can be used to add a flavorful and relaxing twist to any dish, making them a unique and practical gift for growers who enjoy cooking.
