The Blueberry is a good yielder, popular with evryone, but the high sucks.

I'm sure that I'm not growing it right yet. I've read so often "Blueberry is a hard strain to grow" and I just laughed. Easy to grow, hard to grow good.

I had a couple bags over lunch, the Blueberry hit me well, relaxed and happy - but not wasted. Very nice taste, fruity but not blueberry. Still very very nice. Smooth.

The Blueberry I had at lunch was harvested last night. I have an 18", 5 cola, Blueberry in RDWC, I clipped the top of one cola. The trichs were 5% amber/95% clear, no milky, still early. I did a roast cure at ~~105C for an hour. I think the rest of the plant is going to be nice in a week or two. I've got a 30W UVB tube and a 160W UVB flood on this Blueberry as supplemental lighting to increase trich and cannaboid prodution, and to speed ripening. It's been working.

So your using 190w of UVB? How many plants? What other lighting are you using?

The floro tube is only 8% and the mercury vapor flood isn't listed for UVB percentage, just that it's a UVB light for reptiles. Not perfect but a start.

I've got a 4.5' x 4.5' grow area with a 1000W Horticulture HPS, 3 - 30W 8.0 UVB floro tubes and the 160W MV UVB flood.

I run a 2' x 2' RDWC in the center and try to keep it to 8 plants on the outside, raised like a collosium. I usually have a RDWC bucket or two running, and in the corners often a clone in 2 gallons of pro mix and a a bubbler for new clones.

Yes, no doubt.

It's a hobby and I love it. Trying new things, growing different ways, is part of the fun for me.
