What’s Update – 100% Organic Garden & Brain Rehab – May 10, 2017
Welcome to my Beautiful Healing Brain Journal!
Brain/Grow Rehabilitation Behaviour:
I thought it would be funny to post some of my odd behaviour experiences to lighten up an emotional week.
1. Just this week I was introducing my husband, by the WRONG name…lol. I had to make a joke saying I had two husbands to cover up my cognitive mistake. Oops!
2. My husband has found plates in the garbage that I threw out after dinner. Nope they are not disposable either. Just a slip of the mind.
3. I have put my shoes on and waited by the door to leave, except we had no plans to go out. My husband asked me where I was going, I said, hmmm, nowhere…lol.
4. Yesterday I took the lid off my bottled water and carefully poured water into the upside down lid and drank from the lid instead of the actual water bottle. Ummm hello!
5. I was making tea and instead of pouring the hot water into the mugs on the counter, I picked up a mug, held it in my left hand, and poured the hot water directly down the sink.
6. Every time I kick something out of my way, I say “Goooooooooaaaaaalllll!” and put both of my arms up celebrating, like when I used to play soccer. lol.
7. This week, I posted my email in a thread, instead of sending it as a message. I even made an edit to my post, still not realizing I’ve posted my personal email. DUH!
8. Last one, now when I cross the crosswalks I put out my finger and arm and point like I’m in grade 4 again. It’s looks funny but it works…
What am I grateful for? “Compassionate Grow Friends”
Quote of the week: “Kick my brains ass!”
My humble garden of positive change awaits you…
1. Type: CB Dream CLONES #1 - 6 (Mother born Oct 2, 2016)
Week:9 weeks
Days: 63
Temp:24-30 Degrees Celsius
Hum: 41 - 60%
Strain: Indica - CBD
Technique:Clones, Topped and LST
Comments:
Clones – I’m pleased to say that I have pruned, groomed and vacuumed the girls. They are loving the air circulation and have responded by growing at least an inch in 2 days. Now they are properly poised as they enter the flowering stage.
I can always tell by a certain smell in the air from minty (veg) to skunky (flower) that gets me excited for flower time. Also the top flowers are stacking nodes short as the initial stretch is slowing down. As seen in the top view photos of the plants.
The 3 gallon clones are an easy 3 feet plus more. The 1 gallon clones are at most 2 feet. Either way, they continue their water-only feedings, which makes this the easiest grow to date for me. I couldn’t handle more than 6 but man, how could I resist when they all pulled through, no problem. My goal is to keep CBD in rotation for upcoming capsules, I’m praying that my harvest meets my expectations.
I encourage all medical patients to do clones, this is our greatest value and cheats corporations out of control over our medications. It’s pure magic.
Now that the clones are in the pre-flower stage I thought I would start taking individual shots in order to follow this stage more closely.
CBDream Clone #1 / 3 Gallon, Self-watering, LST & Topped

2. Type: Kushie Kush (Born March 4, 2017)
Week: 9
Days: 66
Temp: 24-30
Hum: 41 - 60%
Strain: Indica
Technique:Topped and LST
Comments:
As you can see the transplant went well, ummm WIKKED. She has overgrown her 5-gallon pot horizontally through the guidance of LST.
Now she’s a monster kush that wants to be directly under my dwarf star. This is what I always imagined, in fact, I think this kush is looking a bit like Snid’s work. And all the primary and secondary growth is even just like Snid’s advice. I may have to dedicate this one to him, because I sure to miss him around here.
This is the FIRST photo period from seed that has the proper light, pots, nutes, air circulation, humidity and temperature. The next thing I will have to learn is soil and ph challenges of different soils. I know tricam has started teaching me, I am slowly reading the ingredients in dirt now just to introduce the terms to my brain. It will take a while to learn but I’m engineering this brain train to track my progress and even at the crossroads.
*I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for your journals to learn from.
May I ask for a favour, no biggie? Could you guys maybe use short paragraphing more often because it’s incredibly difficult to read blocks of text. I just don’t want to miss the valuable information from your resourceful posts and kind support. 420 HUGS
Life is what you make of it and who you GROW it with…G2HM
I've done most of those except #4 and #8, and who hasn't done #6 at least once? (great for baseball games too). And yes, I've waited at a stop sign, not for it to turn green, actually for nothing at all until I realized there was nothing to wait for.
Here's one more from my not too distant past. I had some dry cleaning that had been at the cleaners for a few weeks so I made a special trip to pick it up. Got there and they had no record of it. I knew I had dropped off a load including a yellow shirt. It's a really nice soft shade of yellow with crisp lines and I look good in it. It's my power shirt. I was looking for it earlier and that's what reminded me to pick up the laundry. I got a little angry, raised my voice, said some things I shouldn't have said and stormed out. Calmed down, started going through laundry at home to see if maybe I'd accidently put it in there. Wife asked what I was doing, then told me she'd picked it up after they called four months ago! I could swear it was only 2-3 weeks. That's chemo brain for ya.
Can you guess what color shirt I was wearing?Glad I can laugh about it now.
Hi Shaggn! Another father off to play with his kids, or break up a fight, or something...
Anyway, point is I love that 420 is such a family oriented site.
Not to mention out little girl is all grown up. As you pointed out, It only takes a moment.
Hi growtohealme,
When I saw your first issue about hubby's name, it brought to mind a life experience of HashGirl and me.
.
I am notoriously terrible with names. It isn't disrespectful of anybody, it is who I am. HG is the opposite, not only does she remember everybody's name, she can probably give you their birthday too! It is who she is.
So early on in in our relationship, she would ask "who is this?", not realizing I didn't have a clue, or more correctly, I couldn't recall the name. So we worked it out, if I didn't introduce her it was because I'd drawn a blank, and she would step up and introduce herself. It took the social embarrassment off of me, for which I am eternally grateful. It might have looked awkward, but it let (me) us get by without embarrassment. I am in awe of her gift, and pleased that she has this skill. We are often stronger when we work together.
We are all here with you.
Peace.
Your ladies look absolutely lovely my dear. You continue to amaze and inspire me. I also have had days like that when you have random brain farts but I'm sure we all would prefer that over a bad migrain or in my case a seizure any day lol. You are in my thoughts
Smoke green and prosper
As I turned to the teacup to discover that I'd absentmindedly dropped the stevia into the cup still in the package, I had this thought.
When things like this happen to me I laugh, shake my head in amazement at the occasional playful nature of my gray matter, and move on, chuckling as I go.
When things like this happen to you G2HM you don't react in the same bemused way, do you? If your response it to immediately chalk it up as evidence of the damage to your brain environment, stop that please. Expectation is everything when you work in concert with the ECS.
We know that CBD will begin clearing the confusing plaque from your brain. This isn't wishful thinking on our part, this is clinically-proven scientific fact. You have a plan. Not just any plan, but the right plan to heal your beautiful brain.
*Hi SweetSue, thanks for stopping by.
I thought my last journal entry was my way of not taking things seriously. I track my behaviour in journals so that I may revisit my baseline and create new goals along the way. My occupational therapist helps me figure out way to circumvent my odd behaviour, through acceptance and acknowledgement. That's all, my belief system is intact and ready to kick some brains' ass.
SweetSue, I do appreciate the care you write in your notes, you're advice is always welcome here.
.
You shine this bright light wherever you go, are you aware of that? If I ever overstep you can let me know. I have no ego Baby.
I suspect some type of Marvel hero character but SweetSue is real, in the flesh. Go figure!
Been a long day testing the new oil. Whew!
G2HM, since it is...and you have beautiful little girls dancing under a dwarf star....Happy Mothers Day.....
Your journal is getting longer. I like to read it from the beginning. So many wonderful members show up here.
The smiles and a tear are always a reward.
I take a lot of pictures.
#1 reason; to review at the end of the day. In order to see what I really did during the day! Lol
We received a new horse yesterday. Watching him run free on 30 acres of pasture.
Made me think of you
