    Terpenes getting lost in cure.

    it depends on your grow space. if you have a large space i would recommend hanging a 315w 10k CMH or a 400w/600w 10k MH as a vertical bare bulb. for the 10k MH i would recommend solis tek and for the 315w 10k cmh i would recommend growers choice. if your space is small than a T5HO UV bulb...

    Terpenes getting lost in cure.

    Forgot to mention my space is 5x8. Two 1000w hps I usually used now I’m doing the hps next the the blackbird for a comparison grow. This is my second run. Anyway I’m looking to upgrade to LED and the HLG lights were recommended to me by a friend who loaned me the one I’m using.

    Looking for uv lighting for small tent

    I've messed around with pretty much all the smaller reptile bulbs, except for the mega 65w pro you showed, or the newer 9w LED bulb they made. I run them almost 12 hours a day for my reptile, but have since went back to t-5 HO only for optimum health. I know were talking plants though, and a...

    Terpenes getting lost in cure.

    I usually use hps and have generally never had a problem but once and I assumed the bud drying faster than usual was the problem. I usually get 10 days or better but this particular strain dried quickly. Still smoked great but it just wasn’t as gassy as I’d hoped. Anyway the uvb thing I’ve never...

    Looking for uv lighting for small tent

    do you have experience with 26watt spiral cfl's? in small grow spaces? because i do and im telling you they work! maybe you are talking about 6watt cfl's or 13 watt cfl's. i used 2 26watt spiral cfl's in a 2ftx2ft grow and it made a huge difference in my end quality, i mean HUGE, just...

    Uv led for diy, replacing flourecent t5 supplemental lighting

    Or you could just get the 15.0 UVB reptile T-5 bulbs, which only emit 15% UVB instead of a whopping 75, which would allow you to run them closer, and for longer periods throughout the day. UVB leds are ridiculously expensive, and I don't see anyone tanning their show hogs (lol, I had no idea...

    Latest UVA vs UVB cannabinoid test results

    Because they are pretty much the same light. All T5 fluros start out with the same UVB plasma emission that is phosphor converted to other wavelengths. The only difference is the amount of phosphor used and sometimes the type of glass. Arcadia Migro The spectopgraphs look a little...

    HPS vs LED

    I'll maybe settle on some kind of mini UVA/B induction bulbs that last for years and years (unlike the t-5 fluoros that you get maybe 6 months to a year of good continuous output).. and are more suited for a grow environment than the small germicidal inductive lamp versions.. I can't really...

    Is far red dead

    I believe that reply was intended for me. The fact he *thinks* I am saying different things when I suggest anywhere from 30 minutes to 4 hours to 12 hours of UV a day is because he doesn't know the difference between the different UV wavelengths. High UVA (such as our Hight Lights with 405nm...

    UVB

    With the higher output t-5s (75%?!), I would imagine everything around it would end up just like things left outside under the sun all day, but in your grow space/tent. Anything that isn't UV protected will deteriorate rapidly depending on the amount of use. It adds up quick overtime, even with...

    HPS vs LED

    IR light is overrated. There's a case to be made for a bit of it morning and night to "wake up" plants- but I remain unconvinced that it's anything but a bit of extra energy the plants can use for transpiration and that's easy to get with warmer temps. As for UV, I think the best available...
