Day 16 Just giving an update before I leave on a short 2 week break. Luckily a mate will be looking after the plants while I'm away. That saves me a shit load of stress Will be taking them to him tomorrow so no more updates on this log for the next 2 weeks.

I'm no huge fan of CNN but these documentaries are worth a watch... Sanjay Gupta used to be one of the many cannabis skeptics, until he admitted on CNN that him, along with pretty much the rest of the world, were deeply misled regarding the harms and potential of cannabis. http://youtu.be/hrVXRZY1_x0 http://youtu.be/i2qFDb8LExo

When will we wake up and see the potential too? One Unlikely Nation Might Produce 10% Of The World's Cannabis - High Times With the death of Zambia's president, Michael Sata, at the end of October, the country is at a turning point for a new crop to drive their economy -- and that crop could soon be cannabis. Though no other African nation regulates the crop officially, Peter Sinkamba announced his candidacy under the Green Party banner with promises of doing just that. Though Zambia made it's bones on the copper trade beginning in the 1960s, leading environmentalists -- including Sinkamba -- have been calling for a new era of environmentally-friendly economic gains. His plan calls for the legalization of marijuana for medicinal use in Zambia, which would be a first in Africa and a major change for the generally conservative nation. The idea would be to export the surplus crops for profit, which he claims could be worth billions. Sinkamba seems to have the pedigree to actually accomplish the job too. In college he found himself as head of the student union and was ultimately expelled for organizing a protest against the government's funding cut to the school. Ultimately he was blacklisted from many jobs in the country because of his actions. Seeing entrepreneurship as his only option, the young Zambian began an exporting business which made him a few cool millions and had people coining him a "playboy millionaire." While the money was good, Sinkamba wanted something more for his country, so he ultimately left business to start the Citizens for a Better Environment (CBE). This is what led him to realizing his political dreams and ultimately to marijuana. “Historically, we’ve been the kind of people that have consumed a lot of marijuana,” Sinkamba told the Guardian. “It is massively cultivated across the whole country [for the black market] … So what we’re saying is, look, let’s come out of it and legalise it;" a plan which he surmises could allow the nation to capture 10% of the global cannabis market. International drug experts seem skeptical of his plan -- both in legal terms and economic terms -- which would require the ambitious Zambian to masterfully maneuver global drug policy to find loopholes for medicinal use. “When we look at the trends, the world is going in the direction of legalising marijuana,” Sinkamba explaine to the Guardian. “But we don’t want to be the last ones. We want to be the first ones.” Article Link http://hightimes.com/read/one-unlikely-nation-might-produce-10-percent-worlds-cannabis

This is the last of Newsroom's Dagga Debate for 2014. With the response they've been receiving I'm sure it will go on for quite some time BTL is back on with Ms Mpanga! Brace yourselves once again! Watch from 3:50

So you plan to have this grow going the whole time without your parents knowing? That's quite a large paranoia inducer in itself

Win a pair of Cultivator HPS Grow Room Glasses with METHOD SEVEN South Africa All you have to do to stand a chance to win is Answer 3 very simple questions - #See.Believe #MethodSevenSA 1. Why shouldn't you use normal sunglasses in under HID lighting? a) You might burn a hole in your brain. b) Sunglasses help reduce excess light, but do nothing to address the eye-fatiguing qualitites of HID lights. We know that our pupils dilate to allow more light in when our vision is darkend. Dilated pupils are open flood gates for UVC radiation, which sunglasses do not typically protect us from(because UVC does not reach us outdoors) c) You might get a sunglass tan 2.Which of the following Method Seven LENS types can crossover for use as sunglasses? a) LED b) HPS c) HPS+ 3.Why do you deserve a pair of Method Seven? Simply reply with your entry below this post using the following format as example: 1. a 2. a 3. I deserve to win this because blah blah blah....

Hi Folks Entries close for this competition at 8PM tonight. If someone has made a post for this comp and I've missed it. Please feel free to point it out to me!

Those plants are definitely hungry. Looks like they need some N, Magnesium and perhaps Cal too. Try getting hold of some Cal mag and some epsom salts as well. When you say forest shit do you mean forest soil?

Quick update at day 11 All seems to be going well. The seedlings started to yellow up a bit so I gave them a very light feed with a PPM of 220. They're responding well to the feed except the Kings Kush which I think is showing a bit of N toxicity with the curling? Not too sure... Otherwise all is quite alright :thumbups Kings's Kush

Hi Jay Give us a pic and lets see

Teens in dagga bust TWO Port Elizabeth teenagers were bust in a raid on a sophisticated hydroponic dagga farm on the outskirts of the city yesterday. The “high-end” product was allegedly being cultivated and sold from a rented house on a Theescombe smallholding. The “high-end” product was allegedly being cultivated and sold from a rented house on a Theescombe smallholding. The boys – Luke Mey and Michael Finlayson, both 18 – did not appear to grasp the gravity of their situation initially, with one mugging it up for the photographer and telling him jokingly to take a picture of him with one of the dagga plants being seized. While the estimated value of the equipment and plants seized was about R35000, police said the operation had been going for about a year. They said the high-grade dagga sold for about R500 for a small bag. Yesterday’s bust was the second on the outskirts of the city this year. - Gareth Wilson Article Link http://www.heraldlive.co.za/teens-dagga-bust/

Forgive my ignorance if it becomes apparent now but why would you need to conduct trials on such as well known nutrient used all over the world?
