Resin and thc production

What’s your plan to cycle it on and off? When are you starting it in flower?

Late flower. I still need to buy fixtures. I will start low and do 5 min 4 times a day and work up

Now omw to grab 2 4ft sunblaster kits for the agromax. They come with 6500k bulbs so this is perfect. Seedling and veg added blue spectrum. Swap the bulbs for the agromax in mid flower.

I’m interested to see how those UV tubes work for you. What’s your main goal with these? Sterilization, resin production?

Free sample of "fish shit" its a bacterial innoculant that looks extremely good for any grow using small amounts to full organics. Still beneficial in inorganic grows but I think I will save this for my organic coco run in 2 grows.

I use a uvb bulb in a tent. Four hours on during middle of light cycle starting about three ish weeks from harvest.

Here is the bulb if you care. I rotate the plants every couple days so it's between 10-24 inches from them (individually).

I think 4 hrs on with these will cook the plants. I will like start very low fees mins a few times a day and work up. These are one of the most powerful UV lights out there. 75%UVB 25%UVA.

My store has free samples of that too. I will grab that next time, picked the cultured biologix ez-tea last time instead.

Yeah no way would I start that high with other bulbs lol just what I do with the bulb linked in the edit. I think your plan is sound.

 

[Aqua Man]

Ok these aren't gonna cut it for veg but will do for the first week or so of seedlings just not powerfully enough to be a 2-3' away.

So next seedling will get these for about a week before switching to 3k and upping the intensity.

Then agromax prob last 3 weeks of flower.

Today's pic.

Dropped the humidity to 55. Was seeing some leaf temps a bit high and seems to be working. And at aboit 700ppm they were looking like they wanted a bit more nutrients so should fix both.

I'm thinking your on the right track here. The website say's up to a 28% increase in THC content. That's a pretty bold statement. Even if it's 5%, it's going to be well worth the investment.

This is going to be big, really really big.

Its 28% of total thc content. I wish tjey would stop sayi g it that way its pure advertizing hype.

The tested thc increase best case scenario is about 4%. So if you had 20% weed it gets to 24%.

Unfortunately it does not increase cbd and we know little about other canabanoids.

In my opinion it is not only not necessary but is a bad idea unless using proper sunlight ratio and for the full grow.

Each strain has its effects from a complete recipe of canabanoids and terpenes. Its the balance of these that creates the unique effects.

So increasing thc without increasing the other components is not always desirable.

It is however desirable since higher thc brings more money. So it is part of the new industry.

But does it make better weed? Too high thc ruins weed in my opinion.

Think entourage effect.
