Growing Marijuana: Managing Small Plants Quick Note If you're looking for more on growing marijuana, start here: Anthony's Marijuana Growing Advice . If you have any questions, feel free to email me. Make sure to send me pictures of your plants so I can see what condition they're in. Make sure to inform me on the strain, lighting, soil/hydro, location, and any other information you may have so that I can help. Well folks I got a question in regards to my initial Marijuana Mondays post back in August. Question: How do you grow plants on a small scale? Root Zone First of all, to grow plants at that small scale you have to control the size of the root zone. Genetics Scientifically, marijuana's name is Cannabis Sativa. Sativas tend to grow tall and lanky (long internodal spacing) with thin-bladed leaves. Indicas are a bit shorter and stubby (tighter internodal spacing) with fat-bladed leaves. Ruderalis tends to be a funny situation. Science and Breeding Plant Management: Topping and Low Stress Training (LST) Light Control Conclusion

Diagnosis Of Mineral Deficiencies In Plants By Visual Symptoms - Wallace, 1943 The processes concerned in the growth of plants are the subjects of study by plant physiologists and plant biochemists. A comprehensive account of these processes is outside the scope of the present work, the special object of which is to deal with the outward and visible signs of imperfections in the plant's activities caused by faulty mineral nutrition. Nevertheless it is useful to have before us the general features of the main processes involved and to realize that the symptoms we shall be discussing later have a physiological basis, and are not direct and unchangeable signs of the specific deficiencies but result from the derangement of the complicated mechanism of the plant's vital activities. The main processes involved in plant development may be summarized as follows: Absorption: Intake of water and mineral elements by the root system. With all plants there are well defined seasonal growth cycles. Major elements: Nitrogen, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sulfur.

Methanol You will need 200 ml of methanol per liter of Hemp Seed oil. Sodium Methoxide For each liter of hemp seed oil you need one gram of granular solid lye for each ml of 0.1% lye solution used in titration of free fatty acids plus 3.5 grams. Mixer The type of mixer depends on the size of the batch.

How To Use Pee In Your Garden If you can get over the ewwww factor, pee-cycling your own urine into the garden makes good sense. Fresh urine is high in nitrogen, moderate in phosphorus and low in potassium and can act as an excellent high-nitrogen liquid fertilizer or as a compost accelerator. Components of Urine The exact breakdown of urine varies depending on the diet of the pee-maker. Urine also contains salt – sometimes quite a lot of it if you are hopped up on a diet of canned soup and french fries. Keep in mind that areas with a lot of rain (Seattle!) Fresh pee can have a pH anywhere from 5 to 9 depending on a person’s diet, but it tends to move toward neutral as it ages and breaks down when applied outside. Safety Issues In a healthy person, urine is sterile. If you are on medication, don’t fertilize with your pee. Grossness Issues Here’s a few other things to think about: “Urine accounts for only 1% of the total volume of wastewater, but it contains up to 80% of all the nutrients.” Okay, I’ve convinced you! 1.

Chapter 2 | JackHerer.com A Brief Summary of the Uses of Hemp If all fossil fuels and their derivatives, as well as trees for paper and construction were banned in order to save the planet, reverse the Greenhouse Effect and stop deforestation, then there is only one known annually renewable natural resource that is capable of providing the overall majority of the world’s paper and textiles; meeting all of the world’s transportation, industrial and home energy needs; simultaneously reducing pollution, rebuilding the soil, and cleaning the atmosphere all at the same time. That substance is the same one that did it all before, Cannabis Hemp … Marijuana!

Remineralize The Earth How to make hemp oil by Rick Simpson l Cannabis N.I. For those of you who have watched the documentary "Run from the Cure", this should answer any questions about producing your own hemp oil aka cannabis oil, not 'hemp seed oil' that can bought in health shops. Caution: Oils that drug dealers sell can have many contaminants and often little or no THC. From my experience, most hemp oil available on the street should be avoided for medicinal use. Make your own oil or have someone you trust produce the oil to assure a very pure, high quality oil is produced. How much to make and take?One pound (500g) of bone-dry hemp buds will usually produce about 2 ounces (55 - 60 mL) of high-grade oil. Will I get high? Will I become addicted? Is this the same as hemp seed oil? Are hemp and marijuana the same? Are all hemp plants the same? How do I use it? Rick Simpsons process of making hemp oil Starting material:I generally work with a pound or more of good grade hemp starting material. 1 - Place the completely dry starting material in a plastic bucket.

Experimenting With Ollas May 28th, 2009 The area of Central Texas where I live is under severe drought restrictions. Our well draws water from an underground lake called the Edwards Aquifer which requires rain to fall in a specific recharge zone for it to refill. Because of the dry conditions over the last few years, the aquifer is drastically low. To help ensure there is enough water to go around, our water conservation district is limiting ground water users to 3,000 gallons per person each month along with other restrictions such as watering plants by hand only. Ollas (pronounced oh-yahs) are one of the oldest and most water efficient irrigation techniques available. As a small experiment, I planted two beds this spring with identical vegetables – one with ollas and a control bed without. Making Ollas Olla-making supplies: Unglazed terra cotta pot (2 per olla), tile, silicone. To seal the bottom hole, I used a peice of broken tile glued in place with silicone. Ollas vs. Olla buried in the garden.

Hulled Hemp seed | Hulled Hempseed | Certified Organic Hulled Hemp Seed Shelled hemp seed has virtually revolutionized hemp food. For many years all we had available to us was the wonderfully crunchy whole seed, which we enjoyed massively but some people found quite difficult to eat. The hulls of the hemp seed are not impossible to chew and are really very good for you, but they are not a typical item that the general population would choose to eat if there was an alternative. Hulled hemp seed is that alternative. We still highly recommend eating whole seed as we are all significantly lacking in fibre in our diets but we also must provide shelled hemp seed hearts as they are also an excellent way to consume protein and EFAs. While whole seed has it's advantages, so does hulled seed. Hulled hemp seed hearts are simply the very best way for someone to get vegetable proteins.
