I believe LG. Ir and uv can be switch off until flowering to give the 301h more power

Interesting. Those are 365nm UVA right? I've been planning on trying UVB for a while, is the UVA just an IPM measure or does it actually contribute to flower or resin production?

I'm not sure but I think having some uv and ir helps over all production.

I have a 240w Kingbrite with 301h.

What distance is best to keep these from the canopy in flower?

I’ve got a HLG light on the way. Will be interesting to compare them.

One thing I don’t like about my Kingbrite is how hot it is to touch when on full. Glad to read HLG run cooler.

The kingbrites I have don't run hot at all. I do have the drivers mounted outside my tent though and that could be the difference.

Distance:
18-24" during veg. I run at about 30%-50% on my dimmer until later in veg when I boost it to 75%

12-18" during flower also set at 100%. I start at about 18" and let the plant grow into the light. I keep doing that until I'm through the stretch. Then I'll stay around 8" -12" until harvest. How close you can get with your light is a variable. It's something you'll have to watch. Some strains don't like being super close to the light. Others love it.

I'm busy researching lights.
After two years living and trying to grow outdoors on a roof terrace in Amsterdam (with a lot of sunshine unusually), I have decided to bite the bullet and set up indoors.

Was looking at Kingbrite but don't like the shipping costs.

I can get this delivered for nothing by Friday.
