Cackleberry reeks of sour fruit, 
Frostier under CMH then the last run under HPS, yes they were clones off the same mom...

CMH has a better spectrum, but I bet it was UV-B that made the difference.

Early flower 2nd run. Cookies n Chem. She is very frosty. She was dusted in a few branches with pollen of male I'm using on every cut I have in flower now. First run I let her natural. This run i topped once. Shes twice as frosty this run. Under a different light I believe is the difference. She yielded huge numbers for a small pot first run. Just a few grams over a qp dried. Her smell all but disappeared in the hang dry. But came back very strong in the cure. She smokes very nice. It's a good 50/50 sati/dom mix buzz. But she has almost no chem funk on nose. All sweet raw dough.

I've actually thought about adding a led strip or 2 to go with my 1k hps just to get those "other spectrums" could u maybe tell me what would work good?

If you run HPS only, it pays to spend a little extra for better bulbs like Hortilux.
Not sure about what LED strips would go well with HPS, but you would want to stay on the blue side of the spectrum because HPS is heavy in orange and red.
I like running HPS and MH together (mixed spectrum).

You have to get florescent bulbs in order to get extra ultra violet light, I don't think leds put out uv light.
i.e. UVb bulbs like for reptiles.

LIzard lights work great for UV-B but they're pricey and have to be replaced on a regular basis.

No not heat lights, they're just tube style florescent bulbs in 2' and 4' and you can probably find ones with mogul sockets too.

You're thinking about infrared (IR).
UV-A is black light.
UV-B is what they use for tanning beds.
UV-C is used for sterilization.

You want more trichs go with better genetics seriously.I never saw any difference at all in trich manipulation with lighting.The sun has more UV than any man made light and indoor nugs are frostier because you can control the temps and humidity which IMO are the only things i ever saw that effected trich development first hand,
Start with a fire clone that you know is gonna frost rail on ya,and keep your canopy temps down during trich development phases especially lights out.As far as we know plants develop trichs to insulate themselves with oil to help protect the seeds from the cold.I havnt seen any documented proof from a credible source that can prove UV will promote more trichs on identical cuts.

First I've heard of trichs for insulation, have heard trichs for sunscreen theory for promoting uv..
Both seem worth a go. More the merrier!
I mix horts/lec would love a few plasmas to play with .

Try it.
It's kinda like fishermen who say they don't worry about scent contamination because they always catch fish, regardless.
I wonder how many fish they would catch if their bait didn't smell like cigarette smoke and gasoline...
