good internet search dinkle! your app says UVa won't increase trich production, but rounding out a spectrum and adding more PAR will, which is what I'm doing. Nothing I posted is a myth Why You Should Include UV-A In LED Grow Lights p.s. if you're going to tell someone to use UVb, let them...

You shouldn't need any UV supplement with a HPS lamp - HPS already emits UV. I'm not sure about MH, but you don't really need UV in veg anyway... Some LED's need added UV, while others have the diodes built in already. I added the exotic booster boards from rapid led to my LED setup to cover...

Great discussion you guys have going - enjoying it thoroughly! I run a 1000w Eye Hortilux Super HPS in one of my tents with excellent results. I've been trying replicate the performances in another tent where I am running LED's (8 x 100w Chilled Logic Growmau5 pucks). I am trying to fill in the...

no man, i hear you on the cool tubes....we think alike lol. 5x5 Tent: I have an hydrofarm daystar 4inch air cooled reflector for the 1000w hps. I bought it 10+ yrs ago when they came in 4inch, not 6inch. It works fine with the 4inch inline fan, but I am upgrading to 6inch before summer rolls...

Week 6 Flower (day 37) back to back updates to get me all caught up! 5x5 tent still looking great. Both the Black Domina and Blue Gelato 41 are fattening up. I've got the ppm's at 850-900. The Dom isn't the frostiest bud I've ever grown but it is probably the easiest I've ever grown. Roots are...
