These\"\" \"\" \"\" are pictures of my initial temporary grow tent set up. \u00a0I had a corner of my Utility Room empty, where I moved my second GT2 which was initially outside. \u00a0Because of the complaints of the POA, I had to move it indoors. \u00a0I had two LED shop lights, so I used them on the side, and I had growing in my GT2 romain lettuces, other lettuces, and some spinach. \u00a0I was harvesting some veggies, but the LED shop lights were just not strong enough. \u00a0I was doing a lot of traveling during the fall period, so I really did not do much with the GT2. \u00a0Then I read \u00a0about the benefits of juicing cannabis leaves for the purpose of treating Rheumatoid Arthritis. \u00a0My ears perked up. \u00a0I had been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis in 2007. \u00a0I was prescribed over the years with several drugs that is used for treating cancer and RA. \u00a0They were outragiously expensive, and has terrible side effects, like lowering one’s immune system, thereby subjecting my body to all kinds of infections, longer duration for me to recover from illnesses, destroying my liver (I have to have monthly blood test) and lastly, posibilty of causing cancer itself. \u00a0However, without the medication, I would not be able to function, like getting out of bed, walking, doing chores, etc., so I have no choice but to take them. \u00a0However these medications are not 100% helpful, and after a while, one’s body might get used to it and they would not work any more. \u00a0So far, I have already changed medications 4 times already, and am still experiencing 30% pain. \u00a0I finally decided to look into this juicing cannabis treatment. \u00a0I did some research on the web, read a whole lot of testimonies as to the medical properties of cannabus, attended an educational presentation by a doctor about using cannibus as medicine, did some more research on the web, familiarize myself with different species of cannibus etc. And now, I am ready. \u00a0I got myself a medical license for cannabis. \u00a0However, I have no intention of smoking the stuff.<\/p>\n

Here’s my initial set-up. \u00a0I line the corner of my utility room with half reflective mylar, and half reflective car sunscreen. \u00a0Yes, car sunscreen. \u00a0The sunscreen are stiff, and can stand up pretty well on it’s own with some help and they are like an accordion that I can open and close like a folding door, so I could open up in front to access the GT2. This is part of the material which I used last year outside in the winter for my grow ten. \u00a0I did not set the grow tent up again this year because of the condo POA’s complaint. \u00a0 \u00a0 The rest of the space I just lined with mylar. \u00a0 I bought myself a 300W all spectrum grow light and hung it on the wire shelf that was above. \u00a0Here are the pictures. \u00a0The growth lamp was directly above the center pot, approx. 10 inch above, and 16 inches from the top of the GT2. \u00a0The date of seeding was Dec. 13, these pictures were taken Dec. 17, 4 days after seeding, and the previous post’s picture was taken last Wednesday, 29 days after seeding.<\/p>\n
