Nice flowers :yes:

Oh this is something I wanted to ask...

I havent tried the blues yet, and I am right in saying it not blue cheese no. I think I remember English telling me this..

But I was chatting with a mate the other night who had just tried some and he said it reminded him of an old Stella Blue cut he used to run back in the day - and still available.

So whats your takes on this? Anyone tried Stella Blue and the Blues?

From faded memory,, Stella Blue was more musky (buddy used to snatch bags from OldChurch in Amsterdam often) :joint:

Blues is more fruity,, tastes more like a sample called "Old Boy Blue" we smoked a few years back than Stella Blue IMO : :joint:

who knows.. :D

The Blues has been around at least 25 years, it's definitely not Stella Blue, had the discussion about what it might be many times, one good guess was NL X Big Bud, but who knows, we will never find out.

Right, without further ado, here is how to make your own UVC 'wand' for about 20 quid:

First, you need a UVC tube, these 9W ones are the easiest to use imho:

Less than 8 quid here:

Then you need a luminaire to hold the lamp, these ones are the cheapest option:

Less than 8 quid here:

Remove the glass cover as it will block some of the UV. Fit a long mains lead, about 5m should be enough, then you have a handheld UVC 'wand' you can use to treat your plants. Hold it 5-10cm from the plant and make sure you expose all area you wish to treat.

Let me add, this is very effective against PM, 3-5 secs exposure should kill PM, gonna use this UVC technique on a friend's ECSD cuts next weekend, they came with PM, will report on the results next week. Mites need longer and there is no firm data on how much exposure is needed against mites.

Hi Verd, those UVC germicidal tubes come in all shapes and sizes, upto 55W. They are identical to a normal fluorescent, only difference is they don't have a phosphor coating to turn the UV into visible light. This means you can use them in any fixture intended for the normal fluorescent lamp with the same fitting.

Yup, Rhino is the new name for Phat filters, I use em and yup, I get em from Greens. The Ruck fan I bought from them last October just failed on me and they are replacing it on Tuesday, courier bringing a new one, so I do recommend Greens.

cool, thanks indi.

ruck are supposed to be the best fans so they damn well should replace it! (i have one of the temperature controlled ruck fans which i swear by, bloody expensive though)

i like greens too - good service and their website looks respectable ;)

Aye, mine is a temp controlled Ruck too, I find em much better than rvk and other brands, they shift more air for less noise.

Best thing about Greens is they give you unbiased info on the stuff they sell, just ask em about the product you were interested in and they give you the lowdown, often times they recommend one of the cheaper options, which is nice, many places tell you to buy the most expensive option.

i spoke to greens a couple of times about the CMH retro white bulbs - told them they would make a killing if they imported a few boxes of them from the states ;)

This threads off track,, maybe open a discussion about bulbs in the UK forum :yes: :canabis:

Any NEW UK strains?? whats the latest flavour??

Latest flavour? Jeez, it's been pretty much nothing but a parade of cheesy skunk/afghan for pages and pages recently. Another variation on that theme isn't a latest flavour, its more of the same.

Looking forward to seeing something rather different.

Excellent, my statement was deliberately provocative to see what people retorted with.

Not a good day for me, my fan failed last week, today my ballast failed, and I don't have a spare. Seems like the fates don't want me to grow again!
