Thanks for stopping in @okletsgrow . The Solo diodes I run are 730nm far red, 660nm deep red and 365nm uva. The 730nm is trimmed to come on 2 minutes before lights out and stay on 8 minutes after lights out. The 660nm comes on 5 minutes before lights on and stays on with the cobs for the first 6 weeks of flower. After the first 6 weeks I use the 660nm for wake up only and they comes on 5 minutes before lights on and go off 30 minutes after lights one. At week 6 I start the 360nm for the full duration of lights on till finish. Each set of diodes has its own small driver and digital timer. Sometimes I run straight 12/12 sometimes I will use the extended day method 2 weeks in and go 13.5/10.5 for 4 weeks then back to 12/12 for the last weeks till finish. I hope this is helpful... :)

How many each of the 730, 660, and 365's are you running and are they 3watt. Also do you run them at 350mA or 700mA. I plan on doing a grow about a meter squared.

Hey PerroVerde nice work on the grow. I was considering bolting some UVA diodes onto my cxb array as well but could only find 390-400nm from reputable suppliers. Did find some 365nm on *bay but they were no name brands. Where did you get your UVA diodes? p.s. did you notice any difference in the crystalization on your last run with the UVA?

I had to search but found them at Steve's led.
Here is a link

As for resin coverage I haven't had a shortage with the cobs alone. Adding the UVA was an attempt to boost flavor and smell. The herd I grow is stanky in all the right ways and has a good taste. If this is do to the 365nm I'm not sure but it hasn't hurt... :)

The first pic is Lemon Alien Kandy by Telekinetic Genetics / @Afgan King . She is a bold girl and definitely worth running her. She is really starting to bulk just under 6 weeks... :)
