Hey Thai,
You know I like to share when I find anything good. Well I do believe I have found the best thing to happen to indoor growing in years
But it comes with a HUGE WARNING !!!!
I'm talkin bout the Agromax Pure UV T5 bulb. I've run UV and actinic bulbs for several years now so when I saw this one I had to try it. But this is not your standard UV bulb, this bulb is very serious !!!!
I got 3 of em NOTE: ya don't need 3, 1 will cover 4X4, I put em in, not thinkin nothin of it, I was standin in front of em at the edge of my garden for less than 3 minutes and had leaned in to look at a bud with a loupe which was approx 30 seconds with my left shoulder 8 inches from one of the bulbs. In that short time I got a sunburn, and my left shoulder blistered.
I had walked away and left em, when I came back to check things all the plants were burnt (the Dalat is recovering) badly, I removed 2 of the bulbs and left the center (highest) one these bulbs were 3 feet off the canopy, plants were only a foot tall. I left the one bulb and the next morning the plants were worse, basically dying. I removed the 1 bulb removed the dead plant matter and put the plants back in veg to recover. This was a total of 10 hours that these bulbs were on.
This bulb wants its own fixture and timer !!! it should be run for 15 min during the center 4 hours of the light cycle to mimic noon sun. It needs to be 3 feet (minimum) off the canopy !!!
I had this Kali Mist in week 4 of flower it is a 100 day plant, the UVB basically finished it. It was covered in trics and most all of em went amber, I have included before and after pics. All the pistils turned red, so I chopped off the top 6 inches and put it back in veg hoping to re-veg it.
Then I dried and smoked that 4 week top and guess what it was a great high, taste not so much as it was fast dried but the buzz was awesome !!!
PLEASE DO NOT take these bulbs lightly (like I did) if you decide to use em. Turn em off when you are workin in your garden !!!!
