Okay, I **know** we have discussed this reptile light before, but hell if I recall where in this journal it was. So if you don't mind RE explaining it, I'd love to hear about it again.

An eighth? Off that one bud? I don't think anyone can tell, but just me and what I've seen and what I've done, and what you've shown us, there will be more than one-eighth, total. Not sure if that's what you meant, though. ANd I would never, ever again try to guess the final dried weight of anything, not after what I've seen! (Nothing to do with you, Ms. Stoney)

Actually, your journal has had me questioning myself: why NOT go with a lower wattage light? To get rid of the heat problems? I did 400 watts before, two grows, and I'm not so sure the difference will be noticeable. So when you are done, I'm going to be very interested in knowing what you got off this plant.

ANd I want to see the You Tube video of STONEY MCFRIED: LEVEL SEVEN PLANT SLAYER cutting her plant down!!

All in favor? Say, "aye."

Love your new avatar, stoney.

The reptile light is for uvb, which increases trichome production, and supposedly potency.I wasn't sure what the dried weight would be, I know it will shrink, but I say by harvest, which will be about July 17, I could have an eigth dried off of that one cola for sure.I don't have scales, however...gonna have to figure out a way to tell.And there will be no youtube videos...I'm way too paranoid for that.

You can get a very inexpensive jewelers scale on ebay, then take to the mall, to one of the jewelry stores, act like you're so interested in their overpriced goods and get it calibrated. Not a big expense at all, and a good one to have. Ten bucks? About that.

Thank you for the info on the rep lights. I think I will check that out on my own. Thanks!

Didn't I say I was going to bed? GOOD NIGHT! Pretty, pretty flowers, Ms Stoney, and a lovely new avatar!

NIGHT! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

been reading and watching vid on the uv light issue. mostley it's saying that the uv light can help produce resin not so much tric's. sorry I didn't book mark the links. The vid was some geek dude not saying anything good or bad just talking about what the uv light does to the plant. I'll try to find the links. Oh and I have a 60w uv on my current grow. just to see what happens.

the little bulb I got puts off alot of heat. I have good venting and a cool tube on the big light so heat is not an issue this time. The dang things are taking their time finishing. I hope to hang them next week. lol tried to snap a shot of them but it sucked.
