The UK Growers Thread!

UVB is what I use now, all bugs mould etc fukin die, my current veg tent is gavita on full at 1150 w, a 125 CFL, 300 w medical uvb light 4 x 15 mins, but it's high maintenance with 2 feeds a day

2 fucking feeds a day? Thought u were going back to organic soil mix.
I still rate ur soil on my top 3 bests smokes only one member beating u.

The only reason I ever started with bb is because they were honest in description n flowering time and other breeder profit I always count from flowering and u know this because u were reading on my thread n probably wanna wind me up...plants take time to develop doesn't just happen at the flip of the switch this why we use ripen n what not to indicate to the plants it's closing time (Leonard Cohen quote in there rip)

The reason you started with bb is cos of this place

 

[theslipperbandit]

All growers want to know is flower time from flip so u can budget the income, the gg4 is good at 67 days, what's that in your language?

9 n a half weeks but didn't some one bringing it longer n she got tastier..I may bring her to 10 weeks since I've No issues with running out of smoke

Definitely they don't bulshit or rip u of its a win win n freebies are usually better I've a dbxl that gets nice n purple that I'll let Don taste n if the plemon is about its be a sassy cross

I let half of my GG go to eleven and a half weeks. That was because at ten weeks it didn't seem that solid.
I reckon I should have fed it more but it just got the same as the Exo because I couldn't be arsed to mix separate feeds.

 

[theslipperbandit]

Boom,right in the kisser.i been adding more mag to the gg4 but tbh the last few weeks Ive been feeding pretty much the same

i found it likes a higher ec oscar it's good to go at 67 days if you hit her up from week six ime

What da fuck happened to ur soil u letting It cook?

But there's 2 many variables to consider likw veg time note Def and so on

In relation to flip time ur as apposed to others

And captain bring down swings by.

You know me mate, I tell it how it is.

Don't fall for hype and you won't be disappointed by facts.

 

[theslipperbandit]

I know and that's why I've such high respect for u Bro u got God knows how long yrs on growing u have alot of great info...did u read that radiation pdf I sent u the par one... Well I posted it here

UVB doesn't work for germicidal irradiation as the wavelength is too long.

UVC is what you need.

I've always thought why Dyson doesn't incorporate that into their hand driers

Exposure time in a hand drier wouldn't be long enough to do anything I don't think.

And the cost would be too high.

 

[theslipperbandit]

Would a Uvc ray incorporated inside the actual mechanism say near intake provide enough if left continuous but at a kinda fan speed controller mode and at an apple approach we can try air filters for the intake lol yay product dependency

I still haven't, the link is buried in over 2TB of hard drive space on my PC somewhere. lol



I've got one for you though, it puts the COB/LED vs HID comparison to rest once and for all.......

"It has been noted that there is considerable misunderstanding over the effect of light quality on plant growth and many manufacturers claim significantly increased plant growth due to light quality (spectral distribution or the ratio of the colors)"

You could put a few down the length of your intake ducting but the ducting run would need to long enough to get the exposure time for the airflow.
I've looked into it but the bulbs and fittings needed aren't cheap.

Ozone gennys could be a viable alternative, you'd get the added benefit of not needing carbon filters for smell eradication if the genny puts out enough O3 and the exhaust ducting run is long enough (again for exposure time).

Ozone gennys would last way longer than UVC units and the replacable bulbs.

I've pets though... Would It harm em in a closed room?
