Time for spliffs plural….

Back in the day I used to roll spliffs and I would put them in an empty cassette case, well one day my buddy seen me with the tape case packed with spliffs and he decided that my new nickname would be “Biff the spliff riffer”. I’ve been called worse Biff the spliff riffer approves this message!!

Do you have a link to the study? I looked up John Lydon Univ of MD, college Park and all I got was a gynecoligist in Orange Park, Florida and a Punk Rocker.

“Biff the spliff riffer”

“McFly42oh any body home!?”

Why does everyone reference back to the future to me??

I was really hoping you would get that and not think I was being a prick!

I’ve seen your name a lot on the forum and every time I think of Back TO The Future, never said anything. Reading your nickname story with Biff in it made me laugh so hard. Had to break the ice : )

PooTee,

Read the article it is a statistically relevant study. Not one of these comical claims regarding things that don't work as claimed. John, like me, eranred at Ph.D. In plant biochemistry.


This article - I’ll send a condensed version I wrote for another member.

The effect of UV on the production of a plants “SPF” is well known and widely published. Many commercial growers use it.

Not sure how you conduct lit seraches.

View attachment 2133597^second place the other smaller Nl 5 . She’s starting to get some orange.View attachment 2133598^ the other lighter Nl 5 has some cool light colored purple coming in, hard to capture but it near the sugar leaves and top bud not the fan leaves.View attachment 2133599^ been holding onto this dying leaf at the advice of bibler. Sir with your permission I would like to oust it from the island?
@Bilber

View attachment 2133600^ Miss Thang is developing some color in her buds. The vampire dome is on viagra won’t go down. The ugly leaf bibler voted to keep on the island has remained ugly but hasn’t yet reached the status of being voted off the island View attachment 2133601^ last but not least is the sensi Nl . She’s shorter than all of them. She really had the darker looking leaves of the first two smaller Nl 5 but has kind of lightened to a green. Not nearly as light as the two biggest Nl 5.These plants were flipped 2-11.

Have you been smoking reefers?

Captain,

UV crap. I think a while back I sent you an original research (Ph.D. Effort) article published by John Lydon, Univ of MD, college Park. I was in the same department. John had a USDA funded grant to perform well controlled study looking at the effects UVB irradiation on cannabis, - terpenoids,, flavonoids, cannabinoids. Amazing greenhouses in Beltsville, MD. They let big Doberman pincers loose inthe greenhouses at night.

I helped with harvest. None of the cannabis plants flowered. The increase in THC was between 20-30%. It was dramatic. Forget smoking bugs. Those leaves aware as potent as anyhting I have smoked.

Amazon sells 75W UVB reptile lamps, $25.00. Without question if I grew plants indoors I’d be illuminating the shit out of them with UVB.

Hey zill, I always appreciate you when you drop by homie!

I do remember that now. Crap may have been the wrong word to choose from my late night lexicon.

I’m stubborn sometimes. And honestly, if there is anything I can unplug in this house, I’m all for it.

Same goes for plugging stuff in hahahaha.
Thank you for dropping the drs who ran the data. You as well, with helping to harvest and sampling the goods. Which I would love to do,

Hey Zill, if it isn't too much trouble, would you send me a copy as well? I love a scientific study as much as the next farmer!

 

[cannafarmer420]

So how did Mr. Lydon set up his experiment? How many UVB fixtures and what kind? Open bulbs? Pucks? Light Placement?

If what you say is true(I'll be googling the article you mentioned) this would mean you could harvest the entire plant, water leaves and all, into smokable product without ever having to go to flower?

My skepticism comes in that UVB has been studied and used in tons of live grows for years and I've never heard reports of water leaves being just as effective as flower. Not saying what you are posting is incorrect as I still haven't read the article you posted but it would seem that the industry would've caught onto that by now.

You can't Google scientific journals you need a collegiate account to access them. As far as the industry it's a bunch of people going for yield, home grow will always be better IMO.

I've got questions, if you don't mind.
Someone posted a link to an article about the effects of ethylene gas on seedlings. I'd like your take on it. Thanks.
