No no no. That rebranded fake ass badboy nonono. Hydrosource is bad. They have gotten in trouble with every company. They have all pulled their products from them. The shop was a front for a shady dispensary before it got shut down. Suplosedly some of their inventory fell off a truck, winl.wink. They also have horrible reviews.

Also they do not accept returns. It says so in their policy. Ive been to their ghetto hole in the wall store in covina.

No returns? That is rather shady. Never trust people from LA county though, they're all shady in my experience. :p

For here, I just click the icon in the post/reply toolbar between the globe with a red X and the filmstrip icons... browse to the location on my hard drive to upload directly. The "From URL" tab may be default, so just click the "From Computer" tab to browse your own folders.

better to host pics thru the site(this site yes, safer slightly) but on windows 7 you can right click and create a copy of pics with all personal data removed and if you cant do that google delete exif data or go to download.com and download a program that does this.

That one hits the 660-670 spot, but theres just not enough power in the 600 range to influence a spending decision. Check over the fiji purple SPD again. Theres also less of a green spike for the fijis.

Heres the fiji SPD

Isn't that the SPD of dubious origins?

Heres a look at pics I took inside the tent very early friday morning. Ill put pics up in a couple hours of how big they have grown in just a few days.


photo (10).jpg

This is a close up of the two farthest back on the left side of the tent. I love how those leaves cup up! This is week 2 of flower. The one on left is Blueberry, on right is an AK variant I had a bag of and found a single seed out of a quarter oz. I called the guy up and he was pissed; he had a QP and didnt find a seed in any of the bags at all. I successfully germinated the mother 09/11/2011. Clones did well. Its the last time Im running any of the genes I have though. Im running RockLock next, check it out: http://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/dna-genetics-rocklock-feminized/prod_750.html

photo (9).jpg

Far left side of the tent. The flexible venting is a 6" inline 240CFM fan intake. 12" stand fan pointed toward the middle to back side of the tent for optimal airflow.

photo (8).jpg

Canopy shot. Yeah I know the front left plant doesnt look so well. It completely recovered from severe nutrient deficiency during mid veg. The measuring tools I was using for liquid nutrients were way off. I solved the problem.

photo (7).jpg

Shot of my light setup. I decided it would be a much better idea to spread all that red out. From top to bottom: RedSun/FijiPurple/454/RedSun/660nm/SuperActinic/FijiPurple/RedSun

Guaranteed not to be the fiji purp spd. KZ won't publish their data because they source their tubes from another manufacturer (I believe Hagen) and they don't have the rights to publish them, just like those with a UVL 660 sample can't publish any graph they may have, same restrictions.

Fair enough. I checked my source and its source isn't credible. I searched for it here and on page 121 or something in this thread its stated that they tried to get ahold of the people at KZ and they refused to provide a spectral graph. Does seem kinda detrimental if they really want to market it. Its not like anyone is going to pinpoint the phosphor mixture they are using. Disappointing.

PS, that UVB lamp is pretty hot, too bad its not available in the states. I wouldnt pay a large amount for shipping for just a few lamps :)

It's Sylvania, same folks that make the ATI purple plus. Did the folks at KZ actually say that's why they won't give the SPD up? Not calling you a liar, but if they did say that they don't have the rights, that means Sylvania does I would imagine.They don't seem too keen on coughing up the difference between it and the ATI purple plus, just saying there is "a difference". Makes you wonder if the difference is meaningful... http://reefbuilders.com/2011/01/27/sylvania-t5-kz-fiji-ati-purple/

Well you have to wrap the bulbs vary well and box them so as to make it to your door unbroken. That alone is a a lot of money.
