    plants dont get the nutrients they need from the light output of any blacklight. Shortly: it just doesn't work.

    its interesting that site said that the ultraviolet radiation messes with DNA.
    There's not enough energy in uv-a Euphoric, many plants have markings that show up under uv-a for insects to use but that's about it.

    It's the higher energy in uv-b that causes the photomorphogenic reactions such as skin cancer.
    Many plants determine when to stop growing upwards & start maturing by the intensity of uv-b they are recieving.

    Cannabis also has an oddity with being resistent to low levels of the lethal uv-c radition.

    Plants just dont show its reaction as in people it takes years to show signs of cancer that does not mean the damage is not being done. Ultraviolet light as seen in ozone generation bulbs which accurs under 200Nm although for production is produced at 185Nm works because this not natural spectrum adjusts the gravity of elements such as oxygen mutating its properties. Smell is carried in the air by organic microorganisms such as bacteria (mostly benefical) and virus's (mutant bacteria). Because the bacteria is such a simple form of life it dies much quicker do to changes of elements such as oxygen. It is radioactive and poisonous and since they can not breath it they quickly sufficate, then dehydrate, loose there water content, since solids are heavier then liquids they no longer float so to say, turn to dust and well disappear. People use ozone in their homes to clean the air so to say when they have allergies. Fine if no one who plans on breeding breaths it in but not the best solution. The people with allergies have allergies because they were not equipted with the means to handle the bacteria because they did not evolve with this symbiotic form of life or there means to deal with it was damaged some how. Things can be rebuilt with the right conditions and immunities can be obtained. The best way to combat these ailments is by taking calcium which kills virus's such as the calcium found in the olive tree as it is the most complex calcium so far publically found on earth. The calcium works as vaccines due by weakening the virus to a point where the body can learn have to break it down, as seen in the early and present vaccine technology since the days of cowpoxs back in Norway around 1801. I know this is a bit off topic but since ozone is a ultraviolet radioactive product I figured I would include it. (You should have seen the first one I typed up, God damn button mixups)

    Now, using a couple 5.0 or 10.0 UVB CFL / Tubes in your grow might be what you're looking for. But black lights? No.

    Bacteria are not the source of airbourne smell, they do produce an odour, especially the beneficial nitrogen fixing bacteria but viruses are not mutant bacteria.. they are a different organism all together with a different mode of attack, no nucleus, they are much smaller, completely different life cycle and there are no beneficial viruses to cannabis. Smells are nanoscopic airborne partcles Eg farts smelling = shit particles in the air, not bacteria

    Sorry please explain this, as a scientist, that doesn't make sense. bacteria are radio active? are to talking about oxygen free radicals?

    Allergies (hypersensitivity type I -IV) are not caused by lack of symbiotic bacteria, its due to the bodies immune system "over-reacting" and attacking the body in various ways (eg exzema)

    -Calcium is merely an ion and is the cause of limescale andhard water but does not work as a vaccine. To immunise people against smallpox. calcium was no involved, cowpox antigens were... they took particles of "puss" from patients with cowpox (a relatively harmless disease), injected it into someone who hadnt had cowpox or smalll pox and they exhibited immunity to smallpox on subsequent exposure due to the cowpox and smallpox antigens being immunologically similar hence milkmaids being immune to smallpox- basic immunology.

    Also Ozone is not radiation - ionising radiation or light radiation.. it is simply an unstable molecule which readily degrades into oxygen and an O- radical... sorry to go off topic but i hate it when people bullshit about science.

    O³, radiation? Hm. It's produced as a result of UV radiation bombarding oxygen molecules containing two oxygen atoms in our stratosphere. The result is the tearing of the bond some of the two atom oxygen molecules have. The now single oxygen atoms, being highly reactive, bond with some of the remaining two part oxygen molecules and other oxygen atoms to form O³, or Ozone. If I'm not mistaken, that's how it's produced in nature.

    Kush Over,
    You're exactly right. That's the natural process by which O-zone is created. However, as the gorilla said, it should be noted that you CANNOT breathe O-zone. We breathe two oxygen atoms wrapped around each other. Ozone has three.

    Ozone is really great for controlling odour :thumbsup:

    karmaxul, I don't mean to dig man but that was a pretty invalid statement you made.. why did you try to explain things you don't understand?

    "Bacteria are not the source of airbourne smell, they do produce an odour, especially the beneficial nitrogen fixing bacteria but viruses are not mutant bacteria.. they are a different organism all together with a different mode of attack, no nucleus, they are much smaller, completely different life cycle and there are no beneficial viruses to cannabis. Smells are nanoscopic airborne partcles Eg farts smelling = shit particles in the air, not bacteria " - you

    Ozone is not made with a magic wand that when swirled in the air make "shit" particles disappear. It works by killing bacteria........please read

    As a comparison based on 99.99% of bacterial concentration being killed and time taken: Ozone is

    25 times of that of HOCl (Hypochlorous Acid)

    2,500 times of that of OCl (Hypochlorite)

    5,000 times of that of NH2Cl (Chloramine).




    Further more, ozone is at least 10 times stronger than chlorine as a disinfectant. Chlorine reacts with meat forming highly toxic and carcinogen compounds called THMs or tri-halomethanes - rendering meats lesser quality products. THMs was also implicated as carcinogens in developing kidney, bladder, and colon cancers. Chlorine also results in the production of chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, chloromethane besides THMs. On the other hand, ozone does not even leave any trace of residual product upon its oxidative reaction.

    http://www.ozoneapplications.com/inf...estruction.htm





    The primary character used to classify viruses from bacteria is the kind of nucleic acid that constitutes the virus genome wether it is DNA or RNA, single stranded or double stranded. Nucleic acid like found in bacteria only a mutant (A cell microorganism that manifests new characteristics due to a change in its genetic material) form.



    I am not going to educate you wasting my time because you want me to explain things to you that you can look up your self. This is a freebie in the future ask politely instead of insulting me and I would be glad to explain anything I say.

    Calcium kills viruses. Before they are killed they are weakened. Weakened viruses make vaccines. Good day
