I just realized you had the TN flag. Hope you didn't have my misfortune of living in Memphis for fifteen years!Quote:

Yes. Did I miss something about that? I read the 'last few weeks' bit on another forum.Quote:

True but don't people only use MH bulbs for the last couple weeks of flowering because of the additional UVB it provides? Maybe he should add another set of plants to his experiment that only receive UVB at the very end.
people only use MH during the last two weeks of bloom because they get bigger yields with HPS and no other reason. i've read a case study where a grower grew two identical crops, one at 4500' and one at 9000' elevation. the crop at 4500' had about 25% more yield, but less trichs.Quote:

They cook down to tiny brown specks and blow away.
You can watch it happen with a 30X loupe.
<Requires a lot of patience>:)
How fast that happens depends on several variables, but the most influential is intensity.
@HS:
Shoulda used the sarcasm font a few posts back, yah?:D
Aloha nui,
Weeze
fa sho! i must have been too :stoned: to find the damn thing! those capitates had me decapitated....or i guess it could have been too much UV to the brain?! :wtf:Quote:

@knna; This experiment, like my first, is based on observations and tasting is based on subjective experience. Would love to see THC %, but that even done by a lab is subjective and can be manipulated since it is % of the amount of material submitted. Better to just go observational.
@Rusty; I only mentioned the apricot pits to explain the strains nickname. I didn't want someone trying to look up "apricot" and going WTF. I have seen many holistic and alternative medical techniques used for cancer, but that becomes an individuals choice and an area I steer clear of. BTW the UVb was used for the entire photoperiod, 18 hrs during veg and 12 hrs during flowering.
@Permabaked; Let me just cover the experiment quickly, 1 grow chamber is UVb from veg to flower, 2nd is UVb for flower only and 3rd is no UVb at all. I've already done an experiment using UVb for last week or two, and I found it will turn trichomes from cloudy to amber. It's pretty much what I do in my personal grow.
And for everybody else, glad you have enough interest to stop by and see how an old man entertains himself. :D
