Welcome to the world of healing.
You don't have to say, but what's your daughters name? Even a screen name will do, it just helps me to focus.
Here's to her, and too many, many good years,

Because this is getting moved to medical, I am going to post a few more questions with a little more background info on my daughter, what my expectations are for growing, and what my over all intention is.

My daughter has Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. When she was diagnosed in April 2015, her blood was 78% blast cells, and 75 % of her bone marrow was blast cells. With Leukemia chemo is used to put it into remission in the first month. This did not work for my daughter. Her blood had 0 cancer but her bone marrow had 50% still. They hit her with two different kinds of heavy duty chemo, this almost killed her and put her in ICU for almost a month. They assured me it would work, it didn't, 18% of her bone marrow was still cancer. We were sent to Denver for a consult on bone marrow transplant. My daughter was 16 at the time, and after listing to what the Dr had to say, she refused BMT. Her odds of it working and not relapsing in the next 10 years was only 25% and she did not believe that she would survive the chemo and radiation, especially after what the second month of chemo did to her. I started looking EVERYWHERE for a better answer, I knew about RSO but not much about it, I had read it on a Facebook post a few years before. I started researching (Dr told her she will die in a few months) it took a while but I tracked down parents who had children with Leukemia and survived due to using RSO. It took even longer to get the first pound of marijuana in. It has to be brought in from another state. I got her on it, and she stayed on chemo (have to by law, and also have not talked to any parent that tried just RSO). She has had one bone marrow biopsy from the time I started until now, that biopsy showed her all the way down to .02% ( a miracle considering they told me she would die without bone marrow transplant.) .01% is considered full remission. Leukemia is much different than other cancers, it is VERY good and recognizing how you are killing it, and it will mutate to get around it (even kids that do into remission will relapse during chemo treatment due to Leukemia being so good at mutating to get around the treatment). The silver lining is, Leukemia responds to RSO VERY well, all parents I have talked to have has 100% success using it, but so I have to change up my daughter strains all the time. Basically I need to grow 12 strain in a year, use each strain for two weeks (2 oz) then change to another. I will use the same strain 2 times per year but not close together. I know 4 strain is the best, but there are only so many strains out there and the consent changing makes it almost impossible to do anything other than auto.

I have been buying bud that fits RSO profile, but am having a hard time affording it, and also verifying how potent it is. So I decided that I would start growing the following is my set up.

Grow ten is 8X4X 6.5

Lights are Mars Hydro II 1200 (two of them not sure but think it equals two 600 watt)

Pots are 5 gallon cloth

Soil is Black Gold natural organic potting soil

Table fan for air movement

Small cheap humidifier


Fast Bud seeds: West Coast OG, Green Crack, Girl Scout Cookies, Crystal Meth

I have never grown before, and until my daughter ended up not going into remission, I had very little knowledge about marijuana other than smoking it rarely.

1 I bought the following seeds, and am wondering if they will work to make RSO.Fast Bud seeds: West Coast OG, Green Crack, Girl Scout Cookies, Crystal Meth. I picked them because they all are said to be 20% or higher THC. Will they work?

2. What are the recommended auto strains for RSO? (I have to move in July, so longer strains will not work, also need to grow many strains per year)

3. Do seed breeders really lie about how potent their strains are? If so is Fast Bud known to do that?

My expectations for growing, to grow 20% or higher THC bud, 1/4 pound in three months in my 8X4 grow tent, that is 1,000 dollar savings to me every 3 months, and yeah I am running out of money to keep buying it so I have to succeed at this. Over time (with more equipment added) grow all that she needs at home so I know for a fact it is good enough.

My overall intention is, to keep her on RSO for her entire life, teach her how to grow it so when I pass away she can still make it. I have found one thing to be absolutely true, RSO is not a true cure for cancer, when you stop taking it, you relapse. I need to keep her on it for life.

@Renaissance Redneck Her name is Nikki, and thank you for the PH links, I am using that already. I have also learned that cancer uptakes sugar twice as fast, but here is something I found out by accident, sugar will drastically lower PH. She is still young so she does get some sugar from time to time. It just happed that once we checked PH, it was 7.5, she drank a soda, we did her afternoon PH; low and behold her PH dropped to 6.5. Now if she gets sugar, she has to take baking soda right after, I have found that keeps PH stable if you have candy or a soda . also eating apple seeds everyday helps with cancer, and is supposed to work with RSO very well. I also have Hemp oil that she takes before RSO to help her system uptake it. Who would have thought one plant so many cures. I love weed!

Nikki, her name is Nikki.

Nikki.
A beautiful name, and I'm sure a beautiful girl.
Sugar feeds cancer. We cant totally avoid it, but lets try
How are you checking pH, and how often?
How much BS, and how often?
I'm a very stupid, very lucky guy, tg. At this point, I maybe know enough to be dangerous.
Lets get this in medical, and let the Master do her magic
In the mean time, how are you monitoring pH? Urine or oral? Strips or digital?

She hates the taste of BS, so I put it into gel caps, seems to work. I start off with 1/2 tsp when she drops to 7. We check 2 hours after, it still low she takes 1/4 tsp. That is how it goes until she has it back up.

As for PH I use test strips I ordered from Amazon, called Healthy Wiser ( I test her urine so does the hospital). I think they are pretty accurate, I have to take her to the hospital when she has 24 hour methotrexate and that one kills kidneys, in order to help flush it out, they keep her PH at 7.5 to 8 (same as I was doing at home) funny THEY never told me about checking PH and how it can help make a friendly environment for cancer when to low We checked it before she was admitted for treatment, they checked it and their test showed 7.5 PH also. I keep her at 7.5 and 8. I have to say, the medical community for oncology is a bunch of crap. Why they don't tell you things like that is beyond me. Even if they don't think it makes a more friendlily environment, they could at least tell parents that baking soda will help protect kidneys during ANY kind of chemo treatment. they also told me from the start and maintain to this day to just feed her anything she will eat. UMMMM no. I am not the smartest person, but I was not stupid enough to believe that. Yeah feed them junk if they want it... its good for them

On the positive side, my daughters Dr hates me, I do research on anything I am told. That makes her SO happy!

True words, Mr Duplex
@tglynnnrso , would you be opposed to moving this thread into the medical section? More than canna is needed here, IMHO.

I think that's a good idea....Lots more going on here than just growing.

@Renaissance Redneck, thanks for jumping in man. Your the best!!!!!

So a few things you should do in prep for the seed arrival. This is what i like to do to make sure that i have all my ducks in a row and dont have to adjust while starting. Get you two plastic totes, one for water res and another for soil/grow medium. The soil one is just a personal preference but the water one makes it nice when you have several plants and you hand water them. If you dont have a watering system hand watering can and will be a chore on those plants. I am starting to have to water daily and its becoming a bit of a pain in the ass. I like it though means the plants are thriving.

I use the 18 gal tote for my water. I have a small fountain pump in the bottom to keep the water moving as i dont want it to become stagnant. This also allows the epsom salts mix over time and i can control the pH of the whole tub. Giving me water that is ready to be used at any time given the demand of the plants. I also keep a 5 gal bucket beside the large res to hold the nutrient solution for feeding. Then i can flush and feed and have everything right there.

As you begin to germinate the seed get your containers ready, now since this is your first grow i would suggest direct to finishing pot. Only because i want to keep this as simple as i can for you. Germination method here has been covered 1000's of times. What works for me every single time is a damp paper towel in a ziplock bag in a warm place. I have never had issues with seed germing that way. Warm the water not hot not cold but warm to the touch and soak a paper towel. Then wring it out in your fist. Roll the seed inside and then place in a bag in a warm spot.

Now that you have the seed started your water can balance out and you have the containers ready to plant the germed seed.
