more of a molecular binding then an atomic one

I must add to my last statement, terpenes do change in a way, essentially their atoms bind together into forms that cant be evaporated away as easily this also raises their melting point so the bud can lose its stickyness and become easier to bust there may also be other reactions adding to...

there seems to be a lot of confusion on curing, first i dont think we really want the thc and terpenes to change much these are things we want to preserve as is and not degrade it there might be some benefits having it decarbed but anything already decarbed is on its way to becoming cbn. as for...

just so you all know UVB LEDS do not exist other then extremely low powered ones max of 1 milliwatt a minimum of 10Watts of pure uvb would be needed for every 1000 watt of light. both narrow band and broadband uvb photherapy lights are the mos effective sources of uvb. most people use tanning...

people really need to know that BRIDGELUX DOES NOT MAKE LEDS SUITABLE FOR GROW LIGHTS the bridgelux leds that are used in all growlights are manufactured in china and only use the interior chip manufactured by bridgelux, they ARE NOT top of the line they are bought for pennies same thing with...

To point something out someone may have already said this but i just cant read tons of pages. that even american led grow lights still use those cheap chinese leds, they can not be avoided the are obsolete but they are extremely good for the price, those leds are bridgelux epistar epiled and...

Re: Xbones First Journal -- 6 Pot Monster system with 800w Diamond Advanced LED July that strain was most likely created by the person who grew it or a clone from a private breeder but its not something ull be able to find seeds for. theres lots of strains with a 1:1 ratio its possible that...

your absolutely right man, at best the companies asemble them themselves but still by the compnents from china like the cheap obsolete brigelux or epistar leds which btw are not made by those companies only the chip and multiple other companies manufacture them, but they all have the same basic...

all grow light manufacturers incliuding american ones like hydogrow use the same basic obsolete design led with some real cree leds, but most are bridgelux or epistar which do not make leds suitable for grow lights, only the interior dies then multiple other chinese manfacturer, it is really...

for spectrum the most succesfull company uses 4:1 there success may partially be do to the low coverage area and sharper angels wich means more penetration but also cuz of the fact that most blue leds have almost half the lumen output as red so a 4:1 will actually be more like 7:1 which is known...

It is now known that green does have benefit. by itself green does nothing because it is reflected away from phytochromes and therefore the plant cant even be awake. but when used with a full spectrum it it helps in the photosythesis of cartenoids and phycoerythin. it is all about the ratio ur...

Re: SteveHman's Grow 7.0. Advanced LED, BPN, multiple strains all the performance and technology is in the spectrum ratio and the leds. currrently there is no company using the best leds on the market cause they are just too exspensive. alll companies use chinese made leds that are extremely...

im sure that helps reflect heat away from the plants roots. light shined on the underside of the leaves can kill a plant although im sure not much is reflecting back, any benefits of having more light reflecting on interior bottom buds will be outweighed by the negative effects of light shining...

the far red spectrum is usually only beneficial when use with red for the emmerson effect. for phytochrome manipulation u want something in the 750-800nm range allthough im sure 730nm may do, it is more visible to plants and may decrease the amount of manipulation that can be done. with 750 nm...

actually a 4:1 ratio of red to blue is very ideal for a full cycle light. any wavelengths under 400 Nm is a waste there will be no benefit. only UVB has benefit but u will never find UVB leds greater then half a milliWatt. any led companies claiming to have uvb is a scam. and those that just say...
