Methods and systems for irrigating a cannabis plant

An irrigation system for irrigating a Cannabis plant, the system comprising:

• a water provisioning system that is configured to provide water at a controllable rate to the Cannabis plant, and
• a control system that is configured to:
• determine when a pruning of the Cannabis plant is performed, and
• control the water provisioning system to sequentially
• provide, before said pruning of the Cannabis plant, water to the Cannabis plant at a first rate, and to
• change, in a time window that extends from one hour before said pruning to one hour after said pruning, the rate of water provisioning to the Cannabis plant from the first rate to a second rate, the second rate being lower than the first rate, and to
• provide, after said pruning of the Cannabis plant, water to the Cannabis plant at the second rate for at least 15 minutes.

A computer-implemented method for controlling an irrigation system for irrigating a Cannabis plant, wherein the irrigation system comprises a water provisioning system that is configured to provide water at a controllable rate to the Cannabis plant, the computer-implemented method comprising:

• determining when a pruning of the Cannabis plant is performed, and
• controlling the water provisioning system to sequentially:
• provide, before a pruning of the Cannabis plant, water to the Cannabis plant at a first rate, and
• change, in a time window that extends from one hour before said pruning to one hour after said pruning, the rate of water provisioning to the Cannabis plant from the first rate to a second rate, the second rate being lower than the first rate, and
• provide, after said pruning of the Cannabis plant, water to the Cannabis plant at the second rate for at least 15 minutes.
