What's the brand and wattage again?
Have a link to the bulbs? So I can see the ratiosShould I add UVB Light?
Here is the testing setup: And here are the bulbs: All that's left is to figure out when the last 2 weeks are in this tent, and when and for how long to run them.www.thcfarmer.com
Wattage is 40 per tube, but I have UVA and UVB light meters, which is really what we want to focus on I think.
I'm OK with buying new bulbs for this test, we just need to do it really soon.
Yes the bulbs are in the link I providedHave a link to the bulbs? So I can see the ratios
Start 2-4 hrs at 12-24".Yes the bulbs are in the link I provided
Here is an awesome, free paper on how this works. What a gold mine! Several awesome graphics. I need to get to a computer to sit down and summarize but i learned more from this than i have learned from the rest of my research combined re: uvb.Really cool interview w solacure founder!
Industry Insider: Dennis Brown - Hydromag
Solacure’s UV light, The Flower Power, is a broadband UV bulb producing UVA and UVB light. Their lights have been show to bridge the gap in quality between garden grown tomatoes and those grown indoors, out of season. We caught up with Dennis Brown to give some insight into Solacure and the work...hydromag.co.uk

Your post is misleading at best, and flat out wrong at worst.Look guys cannabis plans have a very specific way of defending themselves against UV rays they build trichromes to block the, kind of like we use sunscreen. So by adding UV to your grow, or like most LEDs come with UV these days the plants grow more trichomes to keep themselves from burning. It's as simple as that look it up...

Here is my attempt to show how i am thinking about it. Sorry about the childish handwriting...i will edit with typed captions lol.
Not wrong, just inadequate and incomplete. First of all UV WHAT?So this is wrong...
Lol didn't piss me off just wanted to show that I wasn't wrong...Not wrong, just inadequate and incomplete. First of all UV WHAT?
FWIW, I can build a blog post that says anything I damn well please (especially if I am selling something), link to it, and claim argument victory? Nope, show me science, not stuff written to such a basic level they don't even distinguish between the spectrums of UV which have VASTLY different effects on the plant.
Nobody is saying we know everything here, except maybe you?
One primary benefit of science is to be able to predict outcomes. This is what we are working towards here.
Sorry if I pissed you off with the bro science comment, just trying to hold this discussion to a higher level.
Well my grow lights just have UV and I have definitely seen an increase in trichome production since I've started using the lights that have UV included...
