thanks man, appreciate the positive vibes. Anyone for comics, newspaper, popcorn, a scotch, beer, wine, animal porn, John Stewart's daily show reruns, Trailer Park Boys, Two and Half Men, we're pretty well stocked here. Though I am a little short on bud. I do believe that is what I am trying to grow ..... hahahaha!

I'll bring some of my bud for everyone to share as long as you keep the popcorn and animal porn coming. What's Trailer park boys... some tv show I've missed out on?

hey dWr thanks so much for coming on by. I checked on the girl and some of her leaves are going crispy from the overdone nutes ..... but the rest of the plant seems to be ok .... so far. I am a little worried but I'll keep close monitoring of her. I might have to flush with clear water again tonight. The seedlings seems to be appreciative of the additional fan and air movement in the vege chamber.
Thanks again for dropping by.

awesome show tahoe really starting to bounce now man lookin real hairy. i love the speech bubbles looks like roll call at dope highschool hahah
wondering if you could do some sort of breakdown on your uvb knowledge?! were all looking to up our game and uvb seems like its a fairly inexpensive way to stack on the crystals!
happy growing dude!

hey there ..... thanks westie ..... it is nice to have them honking big pics crashing into your eyeballs. And no fooling with the waiting game for the others to ..... like ..... friggin .....appear. anyhoooo ..... I also don't like how big the friggin threads get when I'm putting pics in all the time. so it became a tradeoff which do I dislike more? I've also forgotten how to post the pics that way ....hahahahaha ....the truth comes out ....ya don't fukin know how to do it ....ya fukin moron tahoe ......hahahahaha ......yea ...its been a treasure of wake and bake this morn .....
the uvb question ....... I am thinking you may have been through some of the background stuff we did like a couple of years ago? https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/36368-trichomes-thc-uvb-light.html
The stuff that immediately comes to mind (along with a gazillion other things that are permorattles up there) is it is but one component of the specturm below 400nm, there is also UVA and UVC. The noon maximum dosage in earthly terms is quoted variously as 200-250 units of whatever they measure. it is a unit of intensity per area. there's the famous paper by Joe Turk? talking about how it is the uvb light energy the energizes specific cells and molecules within the structure of the trichome and other related plant parrts which triggers the production of the trichomes. There has been substantive debate of the "purpose of thr trichome" defensive from a couple of perspectives - simple cellular protection from the otherwise harmful properties of uv light, moisture retention, stickiness (insect repellent), pyschoactivity (deters continued ingestion by plant eating animals). I can't remember if we got into that in the above thread or not .... its not small and I haven't gone through it lately.
My guess is that the relationship of trichomes-plant is a combination of some proportion of different "functions", and by adjusting our growing efforts through experimentation we might learn of some other triggers to hasten and improve trichome production. I keep saying it too. There has been amazing work done by breeders to further this pursuit, bringing the art to the current level from what it was thirty years ago. What does that say to what our options will be like over the next thirty years? Now that's a thought to get lost in ..... nutha bowl , plse
the combination of good genetics and masterful growing skills and the elusive balance of optimal light-water-nutes-air will continue to advance this art we all love so much.

bad ass bro.....I love it when it snows......hey there Magicflame. thanks for dropping in. And many thanks for the positive feedback. And now for a little mid-week update.
I have been unable to find a replacement for my one failed UVB bulb. Next week? Not sure this really matters that much except in trying to have some baseline conditions for the additional light. Oh well. All does not go according to plan.
I also seem to have overdone the nutes a bit and started burning the top44 girl. I flushed the soil with clear water last night so I expect that will right itself ..... or at least that's the plan?
Pictures? sure! First is the top44 girl who continues on her wondrous path - even with the nute burn. The bud sites are really filling up ..... and looking pretty healthy I think.
The last is a global shot of the seedlings. And I decided to play with labeling a little, helps the eye. I noticed immediately after watering this morning that the BD ... just like .... fell over ..... top heavy? Only to realize that the circulation fan was unplugged ..... duh! Built up some soil around her, got the fan functioning and ...presto .... there is how they look. The DQ and MM continue to be the smaller or slower in progress. The AO BD and CH are really quite massive ....and short ..... females? it is becoming my sense that large fast growers are males? We'll wait and see. I do like how they are all looking regadless of their sexual preferences ... Walking On!~

To have full size pictures on your page they need to be on the internet already like on photobucket, myspace, here or anywhere then you just right click the image and go to copy image location. Then in the message box you click the insert image button and paste the address in there. The insert image button is the one with the 2 mountains and the sun.

yo man ...for sure .... and this girl looks like she want to storm the gates with a blizzard. Ok ok so yea, I believe in the power of positive thinking ... hahahaha! Walking On!~
hey man .... thanks appreciate the details!bad ass bro.....I love it when it snows......
hey there RM ..... I hear ya. Though I'm starting to second guess myself on this one - is it nute burn or freakin sunburn from the UVB? I have cut back entirely on the nutes, and will see it that shows improvement? next move would be to shut off the UVB light? I'll have to keep monitoring. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

hey there man. thanks for dropping by ..... and a pic ..... well, I am not exactly sure what came over me yesterday, but went to work with the clippers and trimmed this girl back 
....... I might have over done that 
. I just didn't like the damaged leaves, though I certainly removed more than just the damaged ones. Guess we'll see how things go forward. I like her progress - she's 34d flower today (after 26d vege).
And now for them pics ..... ....... grrrr ..... not letting me upload .....later. 
ok .... and later it is ...... ....... nope, still not.
