big question is why cant you ? lot of people do this . its expose to being out quality . personally i never seen any difference at all running a 400 watt mh along with a 1000 wat hps same as running the hps alone . this is my opinion only . every set up will be different . for led . you may add yield . i would turn them all on . go for it crank every light on you have .

knock ya self out!

keep in mind that in nature

seed set is done in fall

as there's falling light

sun lower down is mostly red /2700k

hormones in the plant like that red light

it encourages stretch and the actual seedset

or budding process

good luck

No , no and no , $30 LED are the shittest lighting on the market.

Sure you can. The broader and more complete the spectrum your plants receive the better. But not sure a cheap $30 LED will help much. Quality lighting is where it really counts.

Shop round for a more fuller spectrum 1000watt rather than mess around with small lights.

Sunlight in the fall is still quite full spectrum just more reds.

You would be better off with a few 4ft t5 pureuv bulbs or a few 4 ft 10,000K+uva bulbs. The uva bulbs can run full time. The pure uv run it a few min on every hour.

Just what I was looking for, wasn't sure about running the UVA+ bulbs full time in flowering. What about, veg? 24 hrs ok? 1 uv,2 pure par,1 6500k.

I run the 10k+uva from start to finish.

If using any type of uv run it from start to finish, even the pure uv run a few minutes on the hour.

They have to defend against the uv. That defense is what we are after.
