She suprised me! Grew thick and chunky.Doing good job. Keep up the good work! Phenomenal for a bag seed!
I was about to blast it when my friend did 6 hours on a grow. It didn't look as good as his 3 or 4 hour exposed plants.Careful using uv. I've done a little tinkering with it when I was able to grow. It's very easy to overdo it. You should be OK though since your off majority of time. I had uv diodes as part of my spectrum. So it was uvb and on 100% of light uptime. This was when we were first adding uvb to lights XD
The way I understood it was there is a tradeoff between degrading terps and producing them as well as loss of bud size. I try to wait for half way thru flower then slowly up it, but not so much it shrinks your yeild. Also it can male them turn amber too quickly if you use it too much.Yeah I'm pretty sure the idea behind it is that uvb is in a unique range where it's strong enough to degrade plant cells, but weak enough to do it slow enough that the plant has an opportunity to "defend" itself by secreting more resin because it thinks its being attacked. Not 100% sure but that's what I gathered when I was looking into it.
Took some digging but I found some pics from the groe I was talking about :) this was the one I had the uvb nodes built into the light. They got BLASTED lol but interestingly enough the buds were slightly smaller than normal but they were extremely potent when harvested.The way I understood it was there is a tradeoff between degrading terps and producing them as well as loss of bud size.

Beautiful!I guess they failed to upload? Idk lol here they are
Thats an interesting topic that I've always wondered about. Less light = less energy to create trichs but less light also = faster maturation XD so idk???? LolI have it at 11.5 hours on and 12.5 off for my lights. I figure more time off will allow more time for the trichs to develop from the uvb exposure.
