HPS for flower.

Sounds like fun. I think Keeno did a side by side not sure how it turned out. Def interested to see that outcome

I've seen a few advocates of a far red uvb for 15 minutes at lights off.
It's a bloody minefield

Isn’t far red different spectrum to uv?

Nice good luck

Anything above 720nm. Seen a few guys using them at lights off for 15mins. It's supposed to shorten flowering time.

So do you think all that malarkey is really worth it? Does it have huge impact on the quality of buds? I am asking as I've never used anything like this and wonder if it's worth the effort? Usually sticking the correct HPS above a plant and giving it the right feed and love gives me some badass smoke

I was thinking the same thing.
Where do you draw the line?
I do like the science behind it though.
If you start adding all these supplemental lights be no room left for plants.

@Bulls yeah I think if you use hps it has some uv which is probably enough, I’m starting to think that led which as far as I know doesn’t have any uv could really benefit from its addition, could be wrong just something I have been thinking

Didnt think you could get red uvb which is blue light i think you could possibly be meaning infa-red ? So does that far red light add any sticky goodness as well ? I think i remember summink said about emmershion/emmerson effect (not sure iff thats right word or spelling) but yes tbh im not sure what that is but i don`t think its owt to do added strength of buddage, possibly summink about growing plants faster bigger, im just not sure tbh.

Summink im unsure about in all honesty but ive used it for about 3, 4 or 5 grows in my life and i can`t say if its worked or not, but that applies through board for me whether im growing a strain 30thc or 15thc strength it still mashes me up or whether im growing with hps or led its still smashes me up, or toking organic or synthetic grown bud i just can`t tell difference and i couldn`t say tbh on any of it. But tis said its uvb your wanting for added stickyness iff it works, i just like nice buddage that mashes up my blood clot.
