Have you used a blacklight to grow?

Im about to go into the flowering stage and was reading about using blacklights to bring out more tricomes and increasing potency on a plant. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this.

Curious myself now lol

I read using UVA I think light triggers the plant into producing more resin to protect itself.

The led strips I got have a few uv diodes and they have made good sticky crops so far

Quick write up in there. They're a thing. I don't use them. People do though.

If you have the new model SF lights, they already have the UV built in.
Many companies have done the same thing.
