at the moment there is no better affordable source for an UV-A/B spectrum available than a T5.

no LED, no COB, not in a broad spectrum, not even in a narrow spectrum and not in that intensity.

Some of the best uv out there is actually led. They use it in water and air purification and in hospitals for various reasons. Its just they are very expensive.

I will say that t5 is a very good source and affordable. Agromax makes some uv bulbs. Their pure uv with uva and b will fry plants if not run a few minutes on the hour. Thief 10,000k+uva can be run full time. I run the 10kuva bulbs. Uva still causes a increase in potency.




I want to a dress another issue with hid. Bulbs need replacing more often. They will degrade over time. So will t5 but only about 10% and that's it. Hid will degrade more. Though its not that expensive to change bulbs in hid.

100 internets says organic matter is broken down to mineral salts before a plant can use the nutritions ?
They dont uptake dead fish for instance only whats broken down by fungi insect compost?
If I win we then all use salts to grow our plants hydro or organic style.

This is true but with a distinction.

With bottled nutes you can get salt buildup without proper watering technique.

With organics I can water without any runoff without ill effect.


It is also accepted that organics doesn't need flushed. If your statement holds true then it stands to reason that synthetics don't require flushing if fed properly.

I really dont know but that would be better said with some sort of proof of this. like actual amount of uv, penetration etc I'd think. I am interested in this and will watch for proofs

well just try to find something better, thats all proof u need, if u dont want to search for urself just take a look in my uv science clickbait, i checked all available sources ( types ). [ mostly UVB ]

and also narrow spectrum and low intensity on further distance ( lower than t5's ) because they dont need to.

Ummm ok that's cool. It really isn't about uv though, it's about T5's in general and that they grow stronger weed of which I'm not so sure of the claim but I don't know and again I don't care lol. If someone wants to use them I say have fun with it.

I will further say that it comes down to palate. Some are fine with cheap beer or wine. Some like the good stuff.

To me organics taste better. Does that mean organic is better. Not necessarily. It just means I have a different or more sensitive palate.

I like hydro better lol. I grew up on soil, organic grows and I find good, well grown hydro has a nicer cleaner taste.... call me weird lol.

It's girlfriend ... no more wives for me .... unappreciative bitch (sorry I regress). And I've never asked, she cleans all my stuff real well. but she never offers to carry 20 pails of water around the tick infested forest every 3-4 days either lol. I basically grow for her as I've created a pot monster :(.

I have a 10k UV bulb and have done plenty of study using the cancer stick in a tent. I settled on finishing plants in their last weeks in that tent and learned that the uv is not as effective when mixed with other light. I got hash tips and they were awesome expressions.
It clouded up my trichomes more evenly than normal. It didnt make my weed better or heavier or tastier or more potent but would have made fine pictures. in the end the cost of running the bulb did not pay back for any possible benefit-for me.

I get it, you cannot keep up.

A method is describing a process.

The result would be in consequence to the method.

The flush being the former and the fade being the latter in plants and my analogy drew comparison between flush and calorie deficit (method) the fade and consequential fat loss are in result.

Ok, you really are that fucking retarded.

(Caloric Deficit~Fat Loss)=(Flush~"Fade"), the analogy being...
(Caloric Deficit~"Fade")=(Flush~Fat Loss)

Now, since you're back pedaling, I'm going to lock it in right here; your Fat Loss="Fade" means that you do agree with me that you would only need to "Flush" under circumstances where you have "overfed". This is the comparison you drew (and even alleged it was better than my own, same shit, still an "enema", you're getting rid of excess "crap"). Do not try and escape it. Your analogy contradicts your argument/claims. :blsmoke:


Let's here more about the science behind your "aesthetically pleasing" (your words) nutrient deficient/imbalanced "Fade". :bigjoint:
