I’d totally give this a try with your son. It says it’s a good treatment for autism too.

Hello Gorilla,
Was wondering if, by any chance, you intend to have your girls lab tested ?!
It would be great to know exactly what Candida is up to, when grown by “”real life”” growers, rather than just taking breeders’ words at their face value.
I am far from being an expert, but the middle picture of the above post (n°29) looks very much like ACDC. Promising...
In the opening post of this thread, you said you’d process your (Candida) harvest into canna caps.
Would you mind sharing the recipe you plan to use to make these caps, please ?
And what regimen schedule you have tailored for your mother ?
Do you have any healing experience/background with cannabis ?
I plan to grow that strain to try to help a relative too.
So, the least I can say, is that I very much appreciate your grow journal, for, as it goes, it’s giving us a rather precise idea of what to expect from these seeds.
Thank you for your pioneering work (that’s what it is to me).

Very nice strain, growing it for my mom who has severe trigeminal neuralgia pain...smells AMAZING agitate it a little and the room wreaks of lemoney terps...the reason it looks like ACDC is because candida is a cross between ACDC x Harlequin

Hey @EXObell. Thanks for stopping by! I don’t plan on getting tests done on the Candida as I believe the hype about them. I will however smoke a joint of it to make sure there is no “ high” before I make the caps.
I’ll be using this recipe. http://www.growweedeasy.com/make-your-own-cannabis-caps But I’ll be using 7 grams per 1/4 cup of coconut oil instead of recommended 5. I’ll have my mom take 4 caps per day to start and see how that goes. A pound of Candida with the 7g per 1/4 cup recipe will make meds for 2+ years at 4 caps per day.
Good luck with your grow my friend
Hello Gorilla,
Thanks for your answers.
I’ve never tried it myself, but I read on several occasions that, adding liquid sunflower lecithin in cannabis infused oils, greatly improves bio-availability.
Might be worth a try. Liquid sunflower lecithin is not that expensive, about 13$ a bottle of 16 fluid ounces.
Hope this helps and be beneficial to improve your mother’s health and overall well being.
Hello Alphapinene,
It seems your grow is still in progress, but it would be great to know if and how this strain affects your mother’s condition.
Hopefully her health will get better with care and love you provide her.

I have some CBD girls that I just flipped to flower yesterday. An Otto#1 female that is <1% THC and up to 27% CBD from what I've found online about the strain. And two girls that are a cross of that and Cannatonic that a buddy made he calls GoldFish. Still have some seeds left that are a cross of the Goldfish and Herijuana.
Ought to be some decent medicine in there somewhere.
What I was wondering is do you have any recommendation regarding feeding these girls for best flowering?
I'm using ProMix HP soilless with Advanced nutes 3-part and some extras. I figured they would do better on a lower feed than regular pot plants so I'm going light on the nutes at 1.5ml/L and lower doses than recommended of Big Bud, Bud Factor X and Bud Ignitor. I don't normally use the last two but had a bit of Ignitor left from experimenting with it and got a free 500ml bottle of the Bud Factor as a sample from a hydro store I've done business with. If AN's hype is worth anything then with all three of the bud tribe I ought to need to hire trimmers to harvest the mountains of buds these 3 girls are going to put out.
Actual feed they got just before flipping them to 12/12 under 1000W Super HPS.
In 9 L
5ml Rhino Skin
13.5ml each Micro and Bloom, No Grow
5g Big Bud powder
9ml Bud Factor X
9ml Bud Ignitor
5ml CalMag
From the looks of your plants I have a target to aim for as yours seem to be frosting up nice and look pretty good to me.
My girls got away on me and grew way too tall with too long a veg time. I came up with what I think is a unique solution to the problem and have updated my grow journal to show what I did and even updated the link in my sig to go to the last page where I laid it out. I'll be taking cuts today I hope then seeing how they do in a DWC ScroG grow next.

Hey @OldMedUser. Thanks for stopping by! I honestly have no clue about the feeding part as this is my first run of high cbd genetics. Mine are in an organic, water only mix and seem to be doing pretty well. I’ll probably give them some high P Guano this next watering just to give them a little extra boost. They are almost half way finished so they should bulk up a fair bit more. I’m pretty happy about the frost so far.
Where did you get your Otto#1? 27% is crazy. Are those legit numbers?

Not sure how legit the numbers are but that's what I found when I searched the strain online. I'd be happy with 15% and hope to get it lab tested to find out for sure what I'm dealing with. I have a couple of friends wanting to get their hands on some decent CBD blends so will try to get the other two tested as well as they are both from seed so even being from the same F1 batch can be worlds apart on what ratio of CBD/THC they produce.
For myself I want good medicine for my arthritis and depression and have been growing out and trying various regular strains for the last 16 years looking for that holy grail. Little over a year ago I was out in BC and got my medical for pot finally and bought single grams of a few strains from the guy at the compassion club that turned me on to the doc that signed me up. One of them was a strain called Sweet Skunk CBD. Cross of Island Sweet Skunk and some CBD plant. It was lab tested at 12%CBD. 7%THC. Just smoking a bit of it in the pipe helped so much that I bought 10g to bring home and make into cocobudder. Best damn medicine ever for me!
That 250ml jar lasted about 6 weeks. A tsp in the evening would give me a great night's sleep and I'd wake up refreshed and in very little pain that lasted most of the day with nothing else. The buzz is more like being a bit drunk than high on pot and had me grinning so hard my cheeks would hurt so worked great for the depression as well.
A friend brought me some Cannatonic she had bought from one of the LPs here in Canukistan. They are renaming it Sentinal. I think it was Aurora she got it from. I made it into cocobudder for her and she loves it.
Pot likes more K than P in later flowering so I'd go easy on the Guano and try to get some extra K in there along with sulfur as that's the "secret" ingredient bloom boosters use to get better resin production. That's why I love my Big Bud. It's 0-15-35, 10%S, 20 aminos with ascorbic and citric acid. I've grown without it when I'd run out and was very disappointed with the yields. Got a 500g jar of the powder a year ago to make sure I don't run out for a while.
AN makes a line of certified organic sourced nutes now that are only available in the states for now but I'm hoping they will be available in Canada soon. Iguana Juice, Big Bud and a few others so far. Sure would like to give those a try. The ProMix HP I use is certified organic too so could grow in that or DWC and claim organic for the fussy people. My friends know that I'd destroy my plants before spraying anything on them once in flower and with organic offerings they would like it even more.
Couple of months I'll be testing my own CBD crop but in the meantime have a half oz of CBD Critical Mass coming from that same club in Kelowna to make into cocobudder and tide me over until my crop comes in. I'm also growing a couple old faves to cross with that Otto. Original Skunk and BlueBerry from Crop King and a couple of fem AK47s from CanukSeeds that I will try to self with the colloidal silver I make so I can get some fem pollen to use on a cut from the Otto. More strains will be used too. Going full out CBD growing with just a bit of regular to keep a couple stoner friends happy.

Good luck with the CBD Critical and keep us informed on how your butter turns out.Not sure how legit the numbers are but that's what I found when I searched the strain online.
