Taken on 21 FEB, this is a panoramic shot of my husband\'s and my Black Indica plants in their grow area. I\'m using amber and purple lights on them. The space is primitive but this is a low-budget operation.
This is my first time growing MJ plants. I germinate and grow other fruits and vegetables in the same area. Everything I grow is organic. I make my own compost, as well.
lt;ul
lt;liThe Black Indica seeds were from Crop King Seeds.lt;/li
lt;liI germinated them in a wet paper towel between two ceramic saucers placed on top of a heating pad.lt;/li
lt;liI germinated eight seeds total, the first four on 01 JAN and the second four, on 07 Jan.lt;/li
lt;liI tranplanted the seedlings from their paper egg carton cups to one-pint plastic seedling pots on 17 JAN.lt;/li
lt;liOn 21 FEB, I snipped the bottoms off of the four most leafy, fastest growing plants (1c, 1d, 2c, 2d) and placed them into 5-gallon grow bags.lt;/li
lt;liThe newest leaves on these emerging from the top of the main stem appear to be the first of the plants\' five-bladed leaves.lt;/li
lt;liI\'m using soft wire to bend the main stem, letting more light on the lower areas of leaf growth--the way I wire the branches of my fruit trees outside.lt;/li
lt;/ul
I chose Black Indica for its muscle relaxant properties, as I\'m recovering from hip and lower back injuries that prevent me from sleeping well and that cause me considerable inflammatory pain.amp;nbsp;
