      Thanks Green, she is so strong and vibrant! I am thrilled that the combination of early training and the nutrients supplied by the soil have given me so far a plant that is turning into such an easy grow! 🌿

    Bubba offered me some greens for my salad tonight...photo shows it prior to avocado, dressing, and seasoning. Unbelievably delicious...tender and tasty!! 🌿🙌

      I took my dried harvest leaves and tied some up in a filter, brewed like tea. It came out very light color like green tea, it tasted like tea. I also munch on pruned leaves. Nice salad rock.

      Great idea about the tea with dried leaves Jibberjoe....why not use our favorite plant to full use! 🌿

    Bon appetit!
    I do that trimming leaves (just eat the little ones) maybe I should make a salad LOL the plant is beautiful when she smiles.

      I was so impressed with my totally cannabis green salad....I wish I could have shared! Bubba gave her best, and likes the haircut! 😊

    Ok you did a Martha Stewart on greens!!! Really? Any benefit? My husband haunts me with "can't you use that?" And I just give him my wife look.
    i make great vinegrett dressing, hi in garlic & mustard..how would that taste? On fan leaves.
    love it rockman!

      So much benefit if what one cannabis "expert" said in a seminar is true. Very high in vitamins and anti oxidants. Your dressing would make it even more special I'm sure! 🌸 Right now I had some of the early fan leaves amongst the greens, and they did not stand out as unacceptable. Sure beats buying greens when it comes to freshness!! 💜

      Subscribed rockman, there is a small amount of Cannabinoids in the fan leaves & in the stem as well but, not nearly as much as in the Trichomes. So yes, they are healthy to eat. Hope it was okay to jump in here?

        Of course, jump in anytime! Actually love the fact that cannabinoids are present in leaves, even if they're not psychoactive, there's still lots of benefits! 🙌

      No salad greens from Bubba tonight, but she is feeling perky after yesterday's trimming. Love this girl! 💚

      Great looking plant, thanks for the soil info. Even recipes, I've been giving my fan leaves to my chickens, they really love them. I'm going to have to try them myself. Is this a great thread or what!

        Thanks Charlie, much appreciated! Of course my raving about the salad was after chopping up the mostly young leaves with my favorite ingredients and spices, so you can play with using them to suit your culinary demands. 🌿 A great 2017 to you! 🌻

        • a substance such as vitamin C or E that removes potentially damaging oxidizing agents in a living organism.

      No one is telling you but your body needs this and why not use those beautiful fan leaves to heal ourselves. Sorry Rock just wanted to stress the antioxidants a little more.

        Pleased to see that you did stress that Karlee! I've spent many years since the Lyme issue trying to eat only the most nutritious, antioxidant rich foods as a way to help heal some of the body damage I suffered. We are indeed what we eat, so food choices should be right up there if we want to work with our bodies in obtaining optimal health. And yes Cannabis helps tremendously, both as edible and as a way to balance our endocannabinoid system, which has so much influence on so many other body systems! 🌻
        This is our year!! 🌼

      hey rockman, great job! and yes, i'm glad i subscribed---this is a really good thread. i have quick question if you get a chance...and i'm a newbie so if it's something obvious, sorry....how do you get that day description in your photos? that would be incredibly useful for journal purposes. thanks!

        Great to have you watching the progress Bob....now I'm feeling the pressure to wrap up this grow successfully! 😊 My Fire tablet is what I use for pictures. It has an editing feature where I usually always crop, adjust the brightness, and use the"text" option to insert whatever I want for text. Not the highest quality pics with this tablet, but it's all I have (no smartphone yet). What will you be using for pics? I would imagine most photo applications have an editing tool with them. 🌿

        thank you, that was really helpful. that last questions is what i'm currently trying to figure out, cuz i wanna do a journal, and if i'm gonna go to the trouble of doing it i wanna do it right (thanks, pop!). i didn't know the fire had that capability. i've been a mac user since 1992 and i know next to nothing about other os's or devices. i'm also worried about EXIF information since i'm in that inbetween space between not being super tech savvy but savvy enough to know what i should be worried about. do you have any suggestions?

        i saw a post here recently where someone had put their iphone right up on one of those cheap Carson handheld microscopes and man the pics were unreal. i wonder if it would work with your fire....i don't know, just throwin' it out there.

      Hey Rockman, can I jump in here and make a suggestion for Bob? There is a new member on here that I knew from another site, Bud Magic has some of the coolest methods (DIY) for getting a good picture with your phone. It can take a picture so close that you can check the color of your Trichomes (clear/cloudy/amber)

      Hope this leads you to some super cool pictures. Sorry Rockman, I hope that was okay?

        That was great CC! I'm far from tech savvy so I will be learning some new tricks thanks to you all. I'll check with Bud Magic for those camera tips. Never imagined before this forum that I would need to get really sharp pics..before this just took garden pics that were sufficiently good enough for my purposes. Thanks again!

        Thanks Bob, I'll have to look into that. I dd turn off the location function on my tablet...maybe that transfers to the camera? Even so, is there a big worry about that if your state has legal recreational? I'm not a paranoid much....grew for a year not legal, and felt ok. Thanks again for responding.

        i know turning off location services turns off everything that could reveal your "location" what i don't know is if that and only that is what is collected by the machine taking the pic.

        i certainly wouldn't think so. if i lived in rec state i might not worry about it at all, but i live in a ruby red state so i try to err on the side of clear-eyed caution.
