heres the deal. im asking a simple question about what blurple light is the blurpliest cause i want my room to look cool like im in an 80s arcade... all you chodes talking about 2.5-6000k lamps and white light and yellow light get the eff out idiots we arentt alking about white light here ITS BLURPLE

Woops sorry for going off track Mos. Iv seen some very good grows done with the vipar spectra blurples. Decent yields, good resin an i think you will like the colour look too, will go with what your looking to create i think. You can get their blurple lights at very good prices now too. There should be lots of successfull reviews you can check out done with the lights. Hope that helps

Latest UVA vs UVB cannabinoid test results

These are the latest results from our ongoing cannabinoid testing into UVA vs UVB light. The most interesting thing is the results are pretty much the same as the other tests we've done: UVA beats UVB This might surprise some people but this is our third round of testing in two years with 13...
www.rollitup.org

"All our testing so far has shown that high UVA and near-UV from 395nm-420nm is equal to or better than UVB and UVA <395nm at increasing cannabinoid levels. What's more, high UVA and near-UV are cheaper to produce and potentially less damaging to plants and growers working underneath these lights."

Near-UV = blue/purple

My tests show the same. Violet does allot more then they give it credit for. Insanely more.

... Im looking for the most effective blurple light that they make. i dont want to get ripped off on energy i want it to have a nice spread on it have a good spread and i prefer a more violet purple color over the pink hues does anyone have a light like this? Also itd be great to have a good diode for a decent lifespan ...

Please allow me to demonstrate the proper use for blurples in 2023 - my Viparspectra 260W V600 Reflectors:

Yup ... a great surface for holding up my RSpec boards. Are you sure you want to go the blurple route?

Yea I know, that's why I circled the details in question.

You're probably not going to find a burple light that doesn't say something silly like that, probably not going to be high quality either. But that doesn't mean they're not useful. Even cheap diodes put out allot of photons these days. My King is plenty bright. Allows me to drop the wattage on my QB, apply the small King LED up high on an angle over that plant so the side gets whacked and the top has a varying enhanced spectrum. Flowers come out super frosty and colorful while still getting the yeilds that come along with the HE QB.

Just confirming here ... a light similar to what I showed above can produce the same quality and quantity as a QB light?

Nope. Not stand alone but combined it can work wonders. If your stuck on burple alone my I ask why? If you enhance it with efficient white it will work great and Vice Versa. The wh/r lamps lack what some burples have and vice versa too. Done right, the results are imo better then using either one alone. But the "done right" part is important to get those kind've results. Meaning you seek to filling what's not there in your base spectrum and or remove what's overabundant. Plus you get larger yeilds then using one light alone because you can spank her from the side.

Seems like a waste, let's use worse lighting instead of newer, better cheap ones.

I am not stuck on them at all. I kicked the tires, as it were, and have since upgraded to newer, quieter and far more efficient lights. I no longer have a need for blurples. They left me wanting with what they produced in my flower tent which is why those Reflectors are chillin' up there.

Enhance low efficacy blurples with the highly efficient SMD lights? Those blurples are loud inefficient dust collectors and as such it's pointless to augment an older technology with a light(s) that can produce better yields on their own.

OK, I hear ya! Just remember they're up there collecting dust when you splurge on supplemental to enhance your spectrum. I wouldn't recommend anyone use a Cheap Burple as their base spectrum or main lamp, rather use a low wattage Burple that fixes up the spectrum on their HE main lamp.
Your not the Guy who started the thread tho.
