HEMP GROWING CONDITIONS I have an 8x8-ft. foot growroom with a seedling growing area and a mature plant growing area. I keep 24 seedlings and 24 plants in grow out conditions. The temperature range of the growroom is between 60-85°F with a humidity of 40-60 percent. I use T5 fluorescents over the seedlings and T5 and LED lights for the older plants. The mature plants rarely reach more than three feet tall and tend to be skinny like a corn stalk. When I harvest leaf from the plant, new leaf starts at those harvest points. I harvest between 150-200 leaves a month from this growroom. The mature plants are replaced throughout the month and this system provides me with two to four large fresh leaves a day. A plant lasts in the growroom for about 60 days, so I replace inventory about six times a year, starting all plants from seed. PREPARING THE TEA There is little information on ways to make CBD-A more bioavailable. One study from Poland claims the amount of CBD-A in a tea from water boiled for five minutes is more than 50 percent and then diminishes with continued boiling. The study does not include fresh-leaf or unboiled tea. eturning cannabis health care to healthcare professionals.
