This can easily be looked at as a blessing; as a systems designer, worker safety is my top priority. Having an easily switchable UV source on a separate circuit is an ideal way to allow workers to work in daylight, necessary for best productivity while eliminating UV exposure.but are you giving up quality for that efficiency? it should be noted that the platinum led grow light is a 12 band light that contains 380nm leds. less effiecient but higher THC production. ( much more "sugar"). CLA adds UV tubes to their LED grow lights to address this issue. the aquarium crowd developed hybrid lights years ago when the found that LEDs produced better visual effects but the broad spectrum blue,violet and UV from florescent was needed to get good coral growth and violet and UV LEDs were very expensive and inefficient.perfection does not exist in the real world. you always give up something to gain something else
you don't need a lot of UV. only about 6% of sunlight reaching the ground is UVA. I use 5.6% UVA in my grow room and have experience no side effects but if you are concerned about worker safety you could wire your UVA bulbs on a separate circuit and use a proximity detector or some other device to turn them off when workers were in the grow room but too much UV is not good for your plants and matching the amount of UVA in sunlight should not pose a threat to workers but does improve THC production and flavor. burns are caused by UVB and you do not need UVB in a grow room. it's harmful to plants as well. but it is used in sterilization bulbs so you need to be sure your getting the right bulbs. the powerveg fs+uv may be an optionThis can easily be looked at as a blessing; as a systems designer, worker safety is my top priority.

Some UV lights, even florescent ones, are very powerful and potentially dangerous. Sunburns, skin cancer and macular degeneration are all strongly linked to UV exposure, so this is no trivial matter.
Lots of research out there about UVB being the best of UV spectra for use on cannabis. Blue and UVB and that's all you need at the high end.you don't need a lot of UV. only about 6% of sunlight reaching the ground is UVA.

ok, lets post all those papers please, "lots of research" ....Lots of research out there about UVB being the best of UV spectra for use on cannabis. Blue and UVB and that's all you need at the high end.

I'll go hunting, it's been a few years.ok, lets post all those papers please, "lots of research" ....
I have been researching every sci-hub, scholar and anything else in between about UV spectrum for the last 6 months....over a hundred papers with a not really a stance on for or against...Very inconclusive....so, what makes you so special cupcake?
Post your theory analysis please, there are 8 steps of formulating the hypothesis.....
It cant be a napkin with chicken scratch on it from tommy chong either lol.I'll go hunting, it's been a few years.

Knowing you P, you'd probably paint the fucker green on the outside (if you owned one that is). I still say ya can't grow shit in one of those things .
you do need some red (620 to 680) to stimulate phytochrome conversion during flowering but absorption curve show that plant need a lot of broad spectrum blue and violet lightLots of research out there about UVB being the best of UV spectra for use on cannabis.

Yes, agreed with safety shut off for UV light supplementation when people are present.
And yes, it's true that one can use too much UV, just as true as too much of nearly anything.
Sorry boss, I'm just about to revamp the flowering area and my lights. Next time perhaps.Better Get Your Ass In Gear Green One. The Party Cup Germination Period Is About Over

Lord knows they've tried. Don't matter anymore since every borough in NYC stinks like Diesel/Skunk nowadaze.LUVIN that btw.Is it illegal to smoke cigs in N.Y. apts yet?
Ugh....... still on the diesel, Jesus you guys are loyalLord knows they've tried. Don't matter anymore since every borough in NYC stinks like Diesel/Skunk nowadaze.LUVIN that btw.
Tried some but it wasn't that amazing.Ugh....... still on the diesel, Jesus you guys are loyal
Did you get a cut of gg "smuggled " in yet?....... ha haha
Dude. "On the high end".you do need some red (620 to 680) to stimulate phytochrome conversion during flowering but absorption curve show that plant need a lot of broad spectrum blue and violet light
very nice froggy...........looks like mns critical mass, same lineage I guessTried some but it wasn't that amazing.
Actually I've heard rumours that the Diesel smell is sprayed on nowadays and I can believe it but I haven't smoked street meat in a long time.
So who in Philly wants a cut of some MNS Devil? This shit is great. Sativa dom but still has a indica high/kick but without the total couchlock. Floral but sweet.

Maybe backing up your statements with some substance would help.....I'll go hunting, it's been a few years.
I wouldn't pull it out of my ass, I DID see the study. I read it thoroughly and it said that resin glands are most transparent to and active under UVB. 315nm.Maybe backing up your statements with some substance would help.....
