Best Grow Lighting for Cannabis with Dr Bruce Bugbee | Far red ePAR

[Jaz]

Hot off the press:

A complete guide to the best grow light spectrum and PAR intensity for cannabis with scientist Dr Bruce Bugbee, Founder of Apogee Instruments and professor at Utah state university. We discuss recent studies on the effect of far red on plant growth and development and the proposed change to the definition of Photosynhthetically Active Radiation (PAR) to include far red wavelengths.

Fascinating thanks for the link @Jaz

So very interesting is that Dr Bruce is saying you can actually use very high DLIs from very early on, he says he gives over 40 DLI even for seedlings which is a lot higher than other sources I've seen. He does add that this means you need to water and fertilise more but very interesting. I'm tempted to dial up my light for my new seedlings and test the theory this grow.
