Re: Aberration Goes ker Bloom! - 2009
I am a fan of yours, keep up the good work, and have you ever thought about adding in some UV-B?
There are some good videos/documentation on adding UV-B to increase the potency of the plants.
Quick read:
Just google this " Trichomes, THC and UVB light....."
Thanks. I have thought about UV-B. I bought a tanning bed to dismantle and re-factor just for that. It's a project for after the expansion gets done. Stay tuned - I'll get to it eventually.

Today I went to visit a family member out of town. I gave them L3.1A, L1.1B and all of the remaining cuttings (16 assorted) as I didn't need any of them. While I was there, someone else there gave me some seeds:
The two big are "Elephant Bud" and the small one is "Maple Leaf Indica". I
love experiments. I guess I better bone up on sprouting from seed. I have only done clones so far.
That finishes a major change in the makeup of the plants in my possession. I now have 6 in bloom: MT4, MT5, BD.2A, MT3.1B, MT3.1C & G13xGB.2A.
\
In large veg I have 4 plants: G13xGB.2F, G13xGB.2G, BD.3A & BD.3B.
At the mid size veg in a 3.5" pot I still have L1.1A, but as soon as I can take clones from her she will go away too.
At the smallest end of veg, I have the 8 I just transplanted from the clone dome, which is now empty and needs a new set of cuttings.
I think I may put the strawberry plant into the bloom room and see if it responds to the light change. I also need to dig out my desert rose and baobab tree seeds and get them going. The baobabs take months to germ I guess.
