Crop King Seeds — PK & CBD — 3rd Grow - Lady Growing Ladies Journal
Growers Mission: "Rehab my brain cognition through the processes of growing green."
Purpose: To use natural medicines instead of the high dosage chemical meds to cope with my health issues.
Novice Grower: Under 1 year of lessons learned under my belt but 1 year of dedicated research, product buying and visiting a "misc" grow shop once a month now. I read as many magazines as I can because it fits the lifestyle I live. I'm completely addicted to providing the best care but under a very limited budget. I love the creativity it brings out in me.
Accomplishments:
*I built my grow tent out of wired cubes and vinyl from my own fabric collection.
*I have finished 2 successful grows in less than 1 year as a beginner.
*Living off the land.
*I have cut my hospital visits down to once a year — emerg.
*My plants teach me processes that will help me relearn my cognitive deficits since my last brain attack.
Costly Mistakes:
*My last Purple Kush had nitrogen deficiency as I transitioned her too early, her leaves were green, brown and yellow.
Health & Medical Conditions:
Diverticular Disease — Must eat healthy
IBS — Must eat health and stay away from stress
Brain Aneurysm — makes me forget details, distant from my thoughts, anxiety and trouble with language, grammar and focus.
PTSD — brutal abuse as a teen - intense healing for 20 years
Pre-Cancer — Cervix & Colon (high risk strain — biopsies ever 6 months)
Tinitus & Hyperacusis — Losing my hearing
Pre-Diabetic — Inherited, I'm actually in good shape as I have been in physio working on my back and jogging for 3 months now. Running is my passion and I'll do anything so I can live long enough to run beside the mountains. It's an experience I do often, and crave it.
*Do not drink, or shhhmoke for 8 years now.
*best physical trait about myself - I am a retired soccer player and still have the muscles of an accomplished female athlete.
Tech Specs & Plant Details
(please excuse any errors I'm still learning)
1. Purple Kush - Indica 75% - Sativa 25%
2. CB Dream - 80/20%
2 plants — Medicinal purposes only — (target the body, not the mind)
Early Veg
Indoor
Name of Plant: Kara & Kris
Soil Accessory: Rock - White Quartz Crystal from the 2nd largest granite cliffs in the world. White rocks have been charged with positivity based on the history of these cliffs. Super rare.
Growing times: 18 hr for veg — 12 hour for flower — super important to remind myself
Soil — Not familiar with these ingredients so here is the list.
Promix - "This potting mix is regionally formulated from Canadian sphagnum, peat moss, peat humus and/or composted forest products. Coco fibre, perlite, lime, controlled release fertilizer and mycorrhizae"
10 inch — Self Watering Pot *the best decision I ever made
(2) T5HO LED lights parallel to each other. 1 light used for early veg state. Then turn on second light after the first topping.
Timer settings 18hrs — will switch over to 12 when it's time to flower.
Size of light: 2x 39 inch
Yes, air-cooled during the day, but not at night because it's cooler at night naturally here.
Temp of Room/cab? 22-24 degrees
RH of Room/cab? N/A (Don't have the tools to measure RH but I have a room mister in there to balance the heat)
PH of media or res? Not sure what this means but I am guessing maybe it has to do with the PH Balance of Nutrients? If so, mine is 5.5 ph balance using a colour chart every time for accuracy, transparent dirty orange.
Any Pests ? Not yet, I added hydrogen peroxide before I transferred the seedling into the pot full time. It was added to the very first feeding. One cap full, making sure I do not dry out the roots or damage the growth.
How often are you watering? 1 week now in veg state, with food, I'm sure it will increase once they grow.
Type and strength of ferts used?
Organic

— Thrive Alive B-1 Green (0 0 1 — 5ml/litre
