THC - CBD CBN - MAKE MORE USEING UVB`s/ UVA`s..CHEAP&SIMPLE.?!!

Maybe this is something that could increase THC production over several generations of plants? Environmental conditions are one of the determining factors of which genes get tagged to be passed on.

Are you asking a question ? THC is proven to be a form of sunblock.... but yes the limiting factor is gene`s... BUT indoors dont have any need for Mass production of `sunblock`(THC) so introducing UVB/UVA into an indoor grow is going to allow you to get the MAX production of thc. My outdoors always look like they have more tric`s ... so this theory is on the avalibilty of UVB in a indoor grow is at the moment NON EXSISTANT... so I am making an ARTIFICAL SUN... which will replicate ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
hope that cleared it up ?

I tend to think that all that could be done would be to maximize the stains genetic ability to produce resin/THC. I don’t think you can make a low resin low THC plant into a high resin high THC plant no matter what you do but taking the same genetics and growing them in optimal conditions for their genetic code will get the most out of them but no more.

That is only my opinion of course but I tend to believe it to be accurate.

Look at Durban Poison, it is an African strain from Ethiopia. Part of Ethiopia is equatorial and part is subtropical but even though it is a landrace strain that has grown there for like ever it still does not have a really high THC level. It is darn good pot but no breeder/seedbanks rates its THC level very high so if existing in an equatorial region getting more of the sun/light rays that the information was about actually means an increase in TCH over time, as in something of an evolutionary process, it doesn’t seem to have been the case with Durban Poison. That is unless many years back in time it was extremely low in THC and has grown to what it is that is still far short of many other strains.

That is why I tend to believe that increasing certain light spectrums may maximize a plants genetic ability to produce resin/THC but that it cannot make it surpass it and reducing those light spectrums will decrease its production of resin/THC.

I understand what you are doing. I was suggesting that if you did it for multiple generations that strain of marijuana might become more efficient at protecting themselves (possibly even in the future absence of UVB light, meaning a more potent plant because of its parents environmental conditions)

I guess what I'm saying is that this might have the potential to alter a strains genetics over time. Possibly enhancing a strain that has been grown without UVB for many generations indoors.

ahhhhhhhh i see what your saying now..... this could be true, as you said earlier it may get tagged !:clap::)

I agree that there is a genetic maximum initially, but whose to say that after a few hundred generations that evolution wouldn't kick in :)

Just something interesting to think about.

Trying to figure out where to mount-
Standing it on its side next to the plants - I think may damage underside of leaf...????
OR
Try hang it??

OK - I have mounted at bud hieght... on the wall... cant be arsed takin photos now will do though...... it is close on one side of the plants... about 1-2 inchs from a few buds.
This will be intresting.... it looks good - 3 ft blue light along the wall.....

Thats good, where are you in the flowering stageand what strain are thay??
I have put it on for the LAST THREE weeks or (wk5) Will be getting 8hrs per cycle.
The strain is a family one been around for yrs... hybrid... already really good smoke, BUt mine are the freaks of the family so it will be different.... (as in bigger fatter buds and growth)

Ah I gotcha, So have you honestly seen any improvment that you can physically see with your eye.
