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.
