Hello all,

 

I am completely new at this. A few days since I put some seeds in pots. All indoors with LED full spectrum. My interest is in landraces at this point. Seeds have germinated and some started growing well.

Hello and welcome to the forum :)

What strains are you growing?  The LED crop is not the most suitable for the first time, because it requires previous knowledge (the soil dries more slowly, for example).

Tell us more details, and we will be able to advise you :)

Greetings!

Thank you very much for your offer of help.

I am trying 3 varieties to see how it works: Lebanese, Mazar-I-Shariff and Manipuri.

So far the Mazar is growing well and fast, the lebanese is growing well also but is a smaller plant so I assume that it is normal that it is smaller and the Manipuri did not germinate as well as the other strains but the one plant so far is doing well. Germination out of 3 seeds for each variety was as follow: 3 of 3 for Mazar, 2 of 3 for Labanese and 1 of 3 for Manipuri.

Since it is the first time for me growing, I want to see what I can come up with. 

For LED and watering, I am monitoring closely. I am watering very little amounts at a time. My soil drains super well. I understand that they like to have air through the roots as well so to try and make sure that they are not watered too much.

My goal is more health benefits, so I am planning to juice fresh leaves and consume the juice.

Anything else I should know?

Yes, many things hehe, you always learn new things, every day (even for those of us who have many years of experience in farming).

Micro irrigations are good but do not stimulate the full development of the root, just make sure the substrate dries out normally.

Excess water can rot the roots, it is very good to have drainage (well done). 

I'm sorry, but I don't understand this "leaf juice" part. What do you mean?


Greetings!!

Thank you sir.

The juice part: I am growing these plants mostly to juice the leaves and consume the juice. It has lots of great health benefits.

 

Can you tell me how the expeditions work? I am wondering if there is a way to learn more and to potentially going on an expedition with you guys?

Purpose of Strain Hunters

Our planet is home to millions of species of animal and plants with their own habitat, and each plays a unique role in the perfect design of nature. Unfortunately many species of plants and animals are victim of uncontrolled human development. The sole intent of Strain Hunters is to identify, locate and retrieve cannabis landraces that have not yet been studied, in order to give scientists and doctors the possibility to further enhance knowledge of the cannabis plant in the medicinal field.


Preservation of Landraces

Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.

Cannabis should not be illegal


One of the goals of the United Nations, published years ago in official reports, was to wipe out the cannabis plant from the face of the earth by the year 2010. In reality this is far from being achieved, because man keeps using the cannabis plant for religious, medicinal and recreational purposes no matter what the law says. Most cultures cannot comprehend how a plant can be made illegal. In most people’s perception, plants and animals stand above a status of legality or illegality, they just exist in a higher design of nature that goes beyond human laws and regulations.

Nevertheless most governments of cannabis- producing countries are implementing drastic measures to destroy crops. Dangerous chemicals are sprayed over fields and over the farmers themselves in most of the third world countries, and the poorest people of the planet are the ones paying the highest price for cultivating a plant that does not kill. But in the economy of scale, where demand dictates supply, the poorest people of the planet have no choice but to cultivate cannabis as a cash crop to feed their children and send them to school. Communities that are isolated in remote areas in the poorest regions of the planet are often the keepers of very special landraces.
