yeah hard to replicate in hydro ,,,,,,,,, Good for you !!!!!
Can't be replicated in many forms of hydro at all; one big reason I'm switching is that there's no rhizosphere in RDWC; it's continually washed away.

Like everyone says supplement your sodium lights with u.v. and the power veg bulbs work great for that. I also do some drought stressing and don't water a few days before I cut them. Fermentation and sweat curing is a must and curing in turkey bags gives you superior smoke. Genetics are everything. Malawi cobs and pressing bud into a brick can also increase potency and changes the taste. Exposing your bud to U.V. light for a few minutes throughout the drying and before sweating will kill mold spores. Colombian and mexican sativas are my favorite.

there is a line where quality & quantity meet, up to you to decide where to set it

quality ________________^________________ quantity

It's not just lights but also style that affect the scale

You'll get better quality with T5's , next will be LED's which are in the middle because they also add yield HPS on the right for quantity

You can also mix bulbs to get a bit of both like adding UV to an HPS grow
What about mh and hps together? Well I prefer quality but not if it means 1 oz per plant cuz I'll smoke that in two days 2-4 oz is decent I will look into the led and t5 maybe a mixture of both? Or a mix of all 3 hps/t5/led would that work lol not looking into the UV seems like a lot of bad can come from it compared to the good

Your lookin at things wrong an ounce of one hitter weed trumps 6 ounces of 10 hitter weed all day I have a guy I give joints to, he cuts them into quarters and then shares them with others and yeppers a 1/4 joint of my bud will slay 3 or 4 regular smokers

The thing with usin T5's that makes such a difference besides the being able to create the spectrum, is diffused even lighting as opposed to single point spread lighting

@ttystikk were talking bout the COB lights at our recent gathering this week and once the COB folks get a few clues, it's gonna be Katy bar the door

Got a feelin tty will lead that charge 8)

We know about sulfur helping terpene production but what do you think about iron? I have heard iron rich red dirt gives you better weed.

Do you think the copper will change the color of the flowers? I believe this is done with hydrangeas right?
most common (I have seen) for hydrangeas is aluminum sulfate but copper sulfate would prolly work as well

I am more interested in its effect on potency,,,,,, purple does not get ya high 8)
