Two questions:

Today is re-potting day. We are moving to 1 gallon pots. Is it better to flush the Coco first then pot? Or is it the reverse? Still waiting on new meter. Hubs just confirmed meter is dead and useless.

Does anyone have any heirloom vegetable seeds they are willing to part with?

Today's pictures. Yesterday was an all day doctor affair that's left me sorry of deflated, so I'm glad today to re-pot. I love these beings. They lend so much to us.

Also, I ordered an aquarium pH test kit and plain old school litmus paper that will work for the soil. I can't remember if it was one of y'all who suggested it or not, but I realized it will help me tremendously. My brain is having a hard time making sense today and I realized I'm going to go easy on myself and keep things simple. Colors work as a navigational tool for me. Plants have been repotted, about to flush out. Pictures incoming soonish.

Figured out the hard water solution:

Pour water through Brita water filter. In my head it makes sense to get a couple and throw them in the bucket with water and let it sit out a few days, but my husband is insistent that it must be poured through that pitcher. I'm not confident enough in this regard to be rebellious about it, so I'm using his advice and it's working, much to my chagrin.

Ingoing: pH 6.8
Outcoming: pH 6.0

I'm in love with the aquarium water tester. This morning when I checked on them at lights on, it seemed like they were cold. I had also forgot to turn on the in room humidifier (outside the tent) and that really seems to affect them (I had noticed once before). I had also turned down the heat in the house because I'm Menopause Mommy right now and I'm just going to have to suck it up. Ha! Turned the heat back up and all other living beings in the house are much happier, except me. (You know what they say about Mama, right? Haha! I'll be fine)

I can't wait. How beautiful!!!

I fear I may have been a bit too vocal around here RE: Hemp being same as Cannabis. Apparently, I'm the only person who's grow was inspected by Dept of Ag, and people I've spoken to, in front of, I wasn't aware were on boards, and they seem to take issue with my truth. I'm just going to roll with it, I liked the inspector, and at the time I had nothing to hide. Maybe I'm just being paranoid and should let it go, huh?

I feel her pain. That's been me right now. Tell her to go get some Estroven. Walmart and Amazon sell it. It natural, but gosh it helps. I can't use it right now because I need the docs to see my bloodwork free and clear, with cannabis alone.

Hi Kim,
Newbie here but your girls are looking good. Congrats!
I;m on my third grow and still a huge learning curve, something new comes up each time!

I have a Mars Hydro TSW 2000, and it does a great job on my flowering ladies! I have a 1m x 1m tent.
My current girls are, Critical Orange Punch, Black Domina clone (I love it) and a White Widow.
I flipped them last week and they are looking good.

Yeah. More and more are more open to it. I know of a doc in Austin that would help you. She's straight up, former military. She's cannabis friendly for sure. Ugh. That inner ear stuff is no fun, at all. I ask the Universe to be gentle on you.

I guess I'm figuring, if they want to come arrest little old me, with Parkinson's, well, shame on you. You know? Haha! Standing on the outside of it, what an asshole you will look like.
