The Mega Ray lamps are fast becoming one of the most talked about combined uv/heat lamps to appear on the UK market.

This 100w Self Ballasted lamp is a top of the range Par-38 Narrow Flood lamp, it has been tested prove this lamp produces simular amounts of UVB to that of natural sunlight, combined with the heat output will create a ideal basking spot for your many applications and habitat designs.
This Reptile UV /*Inka Products Ltd*original design provides the necessary UVB, UVA and heat for your UVB-dependent basking reptiles. Our Mega-Ray� European SB 100 watt Narrow Flood Lamp produces more UVB than other true Mercury Vapor Floods, yet is safer for owners! Our design directs the majority of the UVB from the face of the bulb, rather than diffuse it across a 180� angle. 5 Years research has gone into developing this bulb, and reptile UV have conquered and reduced significantly the huge decay rates common in other bulbs. Most other bulbs decay up to 80% in the first few months, the Mega Ray bulbs decay less than 30% over the lifge of the bulb.Mega-Ray� European SB 100-watt narrow-flood all-in-one is a 120-watt SB Par-38 220 volt True Frosted Flood Lamp. A true flood lamp, it will disperse usable UVB in a 30" circumference at a 20" distance.
MINIMUM distance setting of 12" will produce approximately 150-200 microwatts per square centimeter (uW/cm2) of UVB and 900-1200uW/cm2 of UVA.
MAXIMUM distance setting of 20" will produce 50-75 microwatts per square centimeter (uW/cm2) of UVB.
(Distance is measured from lamp face to basking spot or reptile for optimum UVB and heat.)
Warning: Heat This 100-watt self-ballasted bulb also produces heat. It is very important that you monitor the heat at the basking area and adjust the fixture-to-basking area distance accordingly to maintain a proper heat gradient. ALWAYS triple check the temperature at the basking spot - never risk burning your reptile. Warranty This bulb is warranted for 6 months to produce a minimum of 50 microwatts (uW/cm2) at 12" and our initial testing shows even higher readings.

I reckon i could keep it a foot from the canopy or there about. My only concern with this bulb is gona be its heat output and what it will do to over-all temps in the cab. If a reptile can jam 12" from it im sure my plants will be fine.

For all who dont know about UVB, its meant to drastically increase trich prod. Do some research on it, interesting stuff. Meant to be one contributing factor to the difference between indoor and outdoor bud.

Each to their own man, whatever floats ur boat! As i said, i go for soil purely for the taste factor. Also it means i dont have to be quite as on point as if i were in hydro. Obviously soil has its disadvantages like transplanting/speed but lets not go down there!

Was as surgical as u can get with an angle grinder.



I think so, it definitely didn't help if there were PH issues anyway. Was hoping to see a slightly healthier root system in terms of how it had grown, was looking for a more even root mass if u get me. What i find interesting is the yellowing is effecting the left side of the plant a lot more than the right, compare tip for tip.



Thanks very much, appreciate it. Lets hope for no disappointments, she's got a lot of pressure on her to do well.



Would be u kev, lemme find the post and its all urs

  • Already looks like that transplant is working wonders

  • Lowered light to 1ft above canopy. Inverse sq law means she's getting twice as many lumens as previous days. I'm not bothered about stretch anymore as i'm not using my 2nd screen, and more light = faster growth and bigger buds, so now budding has started i figured it made sense.


    Cab sitting at 27C. A lower light means the extractor is pulling air through a shorter ducting which in turn should result in more heat getting extracted from the hood and less reaching the canopy. She's been sitting 1ft away from the HPS for about an hour now and the highest part of the canopy looks extremely happy, no signs of heat stress or anything else for that matter.

  • Gave her a semi watering today:

    10L watering
    Calmag @ 3/4 strength
    Boost @ full strength for early flowering
    Flores @ 3/4 strength
    Rhizo @ 3/4 strength to encourage rooting in new soil.
    Silicon + @ 3/4 strength to improve health of leaves.
    Top max @ 1/2 strength

    Reason for increased quantities from last week is the size of her growth and her expected growth this week.

  • No Vega was mixed in this time, the amount of N that will be provided from the fresh soil, bat gauno and foilar feeds should be more than enough.

  • Gave her another foilar feed today using Florigen, today for the first time i managed to catch her just as she went to sleep, so gave her a full soaking. I'm going to continue to drench the plant until she's fully greened up again, or the buds reach a certain size. I've got LOADS of air movement in there so i'm not concerned about mould for the time being. Will probably continue to foilar feed for this week only. Buds should be a relatively decent size by then hopefully, unless she puts all energy into stretching some more. As i mixed in no organic B into her feed today i'll mix it into the foilar feed i give her later. Ive been spraying her daily since i bought Florigen.

She looks rediculously good, but see if you can get the CFL vertical.

Too bad she's so yellow so early, but it'll work out nice in the end.
I'm having the same issue, I blame the new dirt I got.

You plant looks so good, I'm jealous.
You'll have a healthy harvest:leaf:
