Still no reply on my q yesterday either

Do you lads recon I should leave my blue cfls in for flower or use the red im not 1 bit concerned about how much I yield off the 2 but would I get a bit better bud under the blue as it same spectrum as mh?
I posted a thread aswell and people telling me.mh doesn't produce better bud just a lower yield
i wouldn't leave the blue in bud, probably make them stretch or add it in when they've got bud sites going and the stretch is done.

I thought the opposite was true, that the red makes them stretch more. As far as I remember peeps would keep their MH in for the first week to keep stretch down.

I am operating off no sleep, so really my memory is not very reliable. Woke up 2:30 yesterday, up 3:30 today. Something else having a kid.

i have a pure MH grow going just now. When I told Don he said "why would you do that?" lmfao....blue will keep the stretch down, or Mh does, but the buds are quite small. I am hoping highly concentrated though. Ed Rosenbodywhatsisname swears by them by all accounts......

Button Ben.....final furlong. (well, I got 2 out of 4 pictures uploaded, lol...the uploader is a right choosey barsteward!) The Deep Blue side is almost done, dogs look another weekish. Deep Blue pics didn't upload, although they were also shitty phone pics which didn't pass the uploader gremlins standards by all accounts:)IMAG0398.jpg IMAG0397.jpg

What's up fellas :-) looking right D!
Iv been out for a minute and won't really have time to hang for a while again. My schedule us crazy before the move to Cali in June, but this weekend I'll be making a fishing trip way way south Louisiana it's gonna be fuking sweet!

Anywho, glad I finally took a minut to read and make a post, feels goods.

Hey bud, so is it gonna be 2 or 3 bulbs? I'll toss in an old "what I would do" comment. If two bulbs I'd use a red and a blue. If three I'd do two blue and one red (you said yield wasn't an issue) But all blue in either case would be a problem. Now what would be the REAL difference maker is going ahead and getting a UVB floresant bulb, usually sold at pet stores but also easily found on the net. Start with only 30min a day for a few days the. Gradually step it up to be able to keep it on full 12hrs. Gotta start small because you will essentially sun burn your plants, but in the end it's exactly that effect that will increase trich production,,, as a natural defens by the plant to protect itself from the intense UVB spectrum. This fact is well documented.

013.JPG I pulled my first plant 3 days ago from this grow. I'm just happy that it didn't herm on me considering it was left with the lights on for 1 week in the middle of flower and battleing pm the whole time. It could have went a week or two longer but 4/20 is coming. Here's a pic, I got 2 zips still
