i never have grazz, but from all that i've read on them, which is a lot, is that they're the hid bulb that has the broadest spectrum and that which is closest to that of the sun.. pretty cool stuff, plus like all mh's, they have light in the uv spectrum unlike hps bulbs, which is supposed to bump up the tricome production...
this is why i went with the sunpulse bulbs for this grow.. they are pretty sweet.. firstly, you can buy them in different k ranges, which means you can get them in the same range as say that of an average hps bulb, which most people use for flowering, but then you also get the extra light in the uv spectrum again... you can get them from i think 3k for flowering all the way up to 6 for veg, but then they have another one, 10k, that they say that you should run for the last two weeks of flowering, i'm not quite sure what the benefit of running the 10k so late in flowering is, i'll have to read their info again, lol.. but for like $125 a bulb, i passes on getting the 10k one, especially if i'm only going to use it for two weeks out of a grow...

I've been told they'r great for veg but for flower lack what a HPS gives. I was advised to stick with HPS and air cool the lamps instead. Thats from a few friends that are runnning them too, they now stick to them for veg. Best to seek advise from peeps using them tbh.

Thanks for the feedback RB and THE.. I (like all of us) am interested in getting the most from the space I have available. I used a reptile cfl on my first grow for a few hours a day and was thinking of using it again this grow and while I was reading the posts about UVB the CMH kept getting mentioned. I have one on the way and figure I may finish with it.. should be interesting.
Specs on the 250 CMH I picked up on fleabay..

I guess your getting to know me Doob, I am a tinkerer and these flowering weeks are sort of functionally boring (except that first look in the morning and the sweet smells.. hmmm) LOL
I better be careful though.. don't want to get booted out of the 250HPS Club..

I need to pay more attention to my grow lol, I don't really go in there much.
Lol yeah we need to get that edited. I think just 250w club would be better, I don't think it really matters. Well it doesn't matter to me anyway lol.

Next up KB and BW shots, yeah.... I have one or two shots of the BW one nug shot and a group nug shot I think. I will take more pics of the BW next update promise lol. The 2nd pic of the meaty top is the BW, rest are KB. I took a shot of the same calyx as last update for trich shots so you guys can watch the development, I thought it was a cool idea lol. One more set to come....

Thank Dizz, yeah DNA Genetics KB. However it is Fem, which probably explains a lot lol. Then again I had a Strawberry Cough #2 which is Reg polyploid on me as well. However the octoploid or sexploid branch haven't counted but I think it is leaning more towards octo because it has a lot on the other side of the branch that you can't see lol.

Thanks Treez, I couldn't get the group/full plant shots colored right unfortunately. The flash kept making them neon weird looking lol, so I just went with no flash on that.
The camera I used for all the pics this time was my actual camera, and not phone camera. Hence the better coloring and actually being able to see the color/health of my plants lol. Be expecting more tasty ass trichome shots from me. man I missed this camera lol.

Yea I hear that! It makes a huge difference having those macro settings! Out of curiostiy how many mega pixels is your camera? I've also been itching to buy one of those usb scope lol I'm color blind and even though I can see clear/cloudy/amber its a little harder for me then most..

I think it's a 7.1MP camera, it's not that new lol. It does a pretty good job, I could zoom in more on the macro than what I did. I think the amount of zoom I have on these pics are good for display, closer is more for personal reviewing lol. There are a lot of different options for the USB scopes, they have kids toys that do just that. You can find them real cheap on Ebay, I use the good ole' Radioshack scope. However I do like the idea of a USB one, dude I bet those trichs would look huge on my monitor lol.
