Thanks Tty - What do you mean I'm a 'bit high' yet? This is no place to accuse someone of that ;-!Did you do any research on the intensity of UVB emitted by the lights.... you're a bit high yet
You're quite welcome ;-}I'll get light bleaching if I don't rotate plants from that spot,
I have another two bulbs, and bought another 4" drain pipe to cut up for reflectors. Was planning on adding it to the other half of the row that the current uvb lights shine on. It's a good thought to double up the current set up... For two reasons I'm not going to do that yet. One, I won't have the time to build the second fixture in the next week and by that time I'll be getting close to harvest. Second, I'm hoping one set will make a difference. With the current set up extended to all the plants that would add almost 420 watts to the room (auspicious number ;-) and if I double it I would also double the additional cost.I'm thinking more four footers, with reflectors. Area bombardment, baby!

Light Bleaching...? Do you mean the plants actually loose color or are you meaning something like a mild burn. I don't know the term. How much space do you keep between the fixture and the plants?
