I've got Epsom and liquid mag sulphate (same thing really) but I've found that I've only used it early in this run and had no real mag related issues so I don't use it at all unless I can see the deficiency on the leaves. I've been guilty of overdoing mg in the past by using a bit each feed - something quite a few people reckon is necessary in coco. It really isn't unless your on fancy non tap water
I'm on dam water and didn't add any mag at all with my indoor plants but I was using a Coco specific nutrient,when I was using The Rezipe which is just a modified Lucas formula I'd give a small dose of CalMag once a week but that's the only time I've ever used it.

Each case has to be passed by federal government but he said they just sign off on it when the right specialist is involved ..one of his patients has seizure and chronic pain but she is also seeing a pain therapist or something.. not quite sure exactly how and when for THC but sounds like a mission to get to the approval point.. CBD is drops. And it's sent to me in the post I think .. when I get further info I'll let ya know, but I thought I'd "play it cool" not act like I won the lottery haha
Please keep us informed. From what I understand 1000's have applied but only a couple hundred have been approved and theres like two people in all of Australia that can do the federal recommendation.
Your the only person I know who has got as far as you have.

And it's done via hospital script and they sending me bulk of my private meds (not PBS) and I only pay a certain amount ... So I guess it would work that way... Aromatherapists can get in CBD oil cause there is an old bloke here how gets it from Africa I think he said
MNS sells CBD oil. Its easy to get online from over seas. Expensive though and customs would confiscate if found.

Never thought of calcium as being so important. Might have to get some of that or maybe some calmag just cause stretch is already on and i don't wanna wait for postage.
I've given my blue dream trace elements but might not be enough calcium in that.
What do you recommend for outdoor flowering nutrients?
All depends on what youve got in your soil,you don't want to push K too hard too early or Ca uptake will be slowed down so I'll hold of with that till the last 3 weeks then smash some heavy feeds of it for a week or 2. A NPK ratio of around 2-4-2 is where you want to be

Depends on doctor too. Most states are allowed to prescribe but there's some shitful number (like 20 or 30 country wide) who will actually write out a script for it. Almost every doctor weve seen for my wife has said drugs are bad mmmmkay. Bloody silly they're so hesitant to let people use it. CBD is easy to get onto medically these days but my missus does well with high THC high cbd strains, not nearly as well with cbd only so on its own it just isn't good enough to stop taking standard ep medication
Fuck I hate Australia and Australians some times,shit like this makes me embarrassed to live here it's a fucking joke how corrupt and backwards our political system is and how ignorant the majority of the population are.

Yeah he said about CBD and I put on a "hmmm" face .. he seen that and asked , so I told hom 'But I don't want to be stuck couch locked and the actual THC side levels it out and makes me motivated to get on with day to day duties and he asked me ,and I quote " How much do u pay at the pub or wherever for it, I told him 400 /Fnight and told me to carry on so ........ I won't argue..

Guy I know has been doing the legal paperwork to set up and grow a High CBD low THC strain and just to get the seeds from over seas has taken nearly 12 months of red tape.
Fkn crazy.
Last year when I first discussed its helpful effects with him and the way it makes it less than half as bad as normal ,and after a Billy in the morning I takes it from petie maul to just the overwhelming feel that I get when they start, like a wave of anxiety but no day long knock-out .. that's when I first got his attention about it . Since then he has asked me how my medicating is going haha

I reckon ya right mate especially multi strains haha. Gunna run one strain per 4x4 space next time i reckon. Can't wait for summer to fuck off so I can get my night time temps down a bit.
Multi strain grows arent a good idea if you're doing production runs,2 strains that are similar in structure and flowering time can work but mono cropping is the way to get some good numbers.

Definitely.
And don't just use any old cut,put the effort into hunting one that suits your needs,a difference of 5% yield or a few days less flowering time start to add up when you're doing 6 cycles a year.
Yep its all about getting as much as you can from your space in as short a possible time hey.
