There will be a larger tentGet a AC Infinity exhaust fan/carbon filter with controller. A 4" would work fine for your current tent but would be pretty much worthless for a larger tent. There will be a larger tent. Then get a Inkbird ITC-608T to control your humidifier if you have a simple on off humidifier you will be in tall cotton. AC Infinity will control tent temp with a setpoint,,,, They don't need to run 24/7. Then the Inkbird will cycle your humdifier by set point. You can also set a high humidity set point with the AC Infinity to help combat RH spikes during lights out. The Inkbird will control two devices at a time. Grow life gets a lot better with good simple control.

Are you sure you are supposed to run uv-b for 12 hours? I don't have one, but I thought I remember reading it was best used in doses, or on a cycle timer during the flower cycle. I'm not sure thoughAdded 2ft fixture today with a 24watt t5ho pure uvb (AGROMAX) will be running 24” off netting and for 12hrs daily through end of flowerFits perfectly in a 2x2 for anyone needing a nice t5 uvb for there setup !

There are several ways of implementing UVB light, one of the ways is 24 to 36 inches off of the plants for up to 12 hours per day during flowering, the other way is pulses or intervals of 15 minutes per hour each hour accumulated over the 12 hour time is about two hours or 2.5 hours it all depends on what you were trying to achieve I would recommend reading a little bit on the Solacure website actually has a lot of good informationAre you sure you are supposed to run uv-b for 12 hours?

But what do I know
It is a bad ass light, it's legit. It's on my future list lol
yeah bud, be careful with that. As far as you have it away it's fine, you got the inverse square of power / distance thing protecting you, but if you put that a foot from your canopy and run it all day you will not have happy plants.Added 2ft fixture today with a 24watt t5ho pure uvb (AGROMAX) will be running 24” off netting and for 12hrs daily through end of flowerFits perfectly in a 2x2 for anyone needing a nice t5 uvb for there setup !

I also believe another member Moe has ran some UVB in the past and has some information regarding this maybe chime in?There are several ways of implementing UVB light, one of the ways is 24 to 36 inches off of the plants for up to 12 hours per day during flowering, the other way is pulses or intervals of 15 minutes per hour each hour accumulated over the 12 hour time is about two hours or 2.5 hours it all depends on what you were trying to achieve I would recommend reading a little bit on the Solacure website actually has a lot of good information
I was just thinking about you and even posted some thing while you were typing crazy but I knew you had some valuable information I am going this route rather than the intervals and rather than closer because this is my first grow and I want to ease into everything thanks for the infoyeah bud, be careful with that.

In this thread
Should I add UVB Light?
https://www.thcfarmer.com/threads/should-i-add-uvb-light.124754/post-2586553 Wattage is 40 per tube, but I have UVA and UVB light meters, which is really what we want to focus on I think. I'm OK with buying new bulbs for this test, we just need to do it really soon.www.thcfarmer.com
we had Dennis (founder of solacure) even helping us out.
I'm def interested in what comes out, cause I know it'll be good. You have done your homework.You may or may not know, but this was started in a cupboard with a bag seed from some Ayuhasca purple someone had given me I was originally using aquarium lighting from a coral reef tank that I had, with no humidifier and zero knowledge of anything over the last 60 days I have nonstop researched and learned and literally written handwritten journals of everything that I have learned. I soon got rid of the reef lighting and upgraded to the proper Mars Hydro, I was also able to purchase a nice tent, humidifier, a few fans and all the other necessary supplements and equipment. I then started researching Gaia green products and how to harden my bud and produce more tricombs, I will be using sea bird guano as a top dress along with my Gaia green all purpose and bloom and uvb for this purpose, I have also used Epsom salts, and some other homemade natural fertilizers, at this point I believe that I have everything necessary to grow some pretty decent nuggets I hope you all are interested in seeing how this turns out, as I am very hopeful and I will be posting quite a bit. I’m very excited to see how this could potentially turn out and after this I plan to purchase some quality seeds and document the grows as well as purchasing some better lighting and equipment etc.
I can't tell where the break is, but fyi you can also heal it with some tape usually.Defol dayI ended up breaking the main stem right in half !! an accident I bent her too hard so I tied it up with some soft wire tie and I hope she heals fast View attachment 1296666View attachment 1296667View attachment 1296668
Put it this way I had never made one and me and my fiancé made it in about 20 minutes four pieces of 22 inch long 1/2 inch diameter PVC with four elbows that also have the option to put legs in they are like three-way elbows and then the legs whatever length you need then drill self tapping screws along the side every 2.5 inches and then run one string and kind of weave back-and-forth you’ll get a feel for it once you get going one long string basically keep pulling the twine off the strand and weaving from side to side and end end until you run out and then tie it off on the end and cut itWas that scrog pretty easy to make? I'm looking at it and kicking myself in the butt for not making one instead of buying a crap nylon one.
I have a drill, access to pvc pipe, and string I'm telling myself lol
