Preview of my pl-l micro closet.

Hey Pedro, Those are some wild modifications to your cabinets. When you start a new thread, please take a wide angle photo and walk us through the pieces and parts.

Have you experimented with the UV-C light lately? What were your results of hitting the plants with 20 second bursts? Was there any change besides the death of bugs?

I have two of those bulbs. I want one inside the air intake and one in the exhaust. To kill any bugs making their way into the cabinet and the second would destroy odours leaving the cabinet. I was surprised to read that it would kill odours without producing Ozone. It is a very interesting bulb while also being danagerous.

To prevent accidental exposure, a key operated switch might be a good idea. A contact switch on the door could disconnect the negative/ground wire if the door was opened during operation.

Keep use updated, Love the work!

Thanks, and I'll try to make proper introduction the next time round.

I didn't use the UV light against bugs though, I used CO2 and predator mites to get rid of them. And UV-C as mold and mildew protection.
Perhaps if the air was pulled through a large box for a slower flow rate, for longer exposure time, it could kill all bugs. But when ever you have your door open, the adult thrips is attracted to the light, and spidermites are more likely to use either the grower's clothes or "imported" cutlings as a host to get in.

I thought UV-C would generate ozone?

I couldn't tell any difference from the other buds when I smoked it.

Thanks for your input, I would love to see how you end up using the bulbs.

cheers

Bump this thread if you were excited to see pedro post again, but then sad when you realised it was only me bumping the thread

Come back, P!

Big Thx ScrubNinja. i dont think i would have came across this thread and i would be missing alot.



Pedro, very nice man. very professional in the way you do your controls, you know what works and what doesn't.

i like how you are a DIY'r and i got a few questions.

1. have you thought about using SolarTubes and have your lights separate from your cab?
http://www.solatube.com/.........just one example link

2. if you need a cheap manual way to raise & lower something a simple rope & pulley and use a CAM CLEAT to secure and lock the rope. Cam Cleats are used on sail boats and engineered to remain under constant load.

3. any chance of you doing a DIY on making your own macro nutes?

Nice bio filter work there bro on a micro scale

 

[kjz71521]

Im a micro grower also but in soil. You are setting up something that will for sure pump some quality stash if everything stays on the up & up.. Im pullin up a chair..

 

[heady blunts]

SP- so happy this thread was brought back from the dead

you are a true DIY genius. very inspirational. the bio filter is too cool. A+ sir.

 

[AlexTrebek]

Thanks. Happy you like it

I got a picture of my lamp, or at least you are able to see the difference in light i get from my two types of bulbs. The white one is a standard 865, the purple is the triplus (aka triton), a bulb with much lower amount of the middle spectrum of light the plants can't use (not much unlike grolux).

I use gro-lux T12's, did you mean:

a bulb with much lower amount of the middle spectrum of light that the plants can't use (not much unlike grolux).

I got lucky i scored 20 gro-lux bulbs for 40$
