Hey there you guys. I'm putting together a spectral array for a light chip and I'd like some help with figuring out the specific wavelengths and the ratios at which to run them. The light that I'll be using is similar to an LED, where you can target certain wavelengths and have a certain % per chip. This light however uses optical electronics, like a cluster of lasers basically, instead of light emitting diodes. So any LED users that know of spectral rations I'd love if you jump on in, or anyone with some knowledge of spectrum's join and help. What I need is a critique of my proposed plan.
After some research, and although there has been much opposing data and there really is no definitive answer to what the correct spectrum are, I've come across what I believe to be a good full spectral array.
So the chip is 7x7 pixels, 1 W per pixel. I'm going with:
64% RED @ 46% 670nm - 23 pixels
and @ 18% 640nm - 9 pixels
plus 6% FarRed @ 740nm - 3 pixels
8% UVB @ 290nm - 4 pixels
14% BLUE @ 6% 440nm - 3 pixels
and @ 8% 470nm - 8 pixels
8% GREEN @ 530nm - 4 pixels
This will be a flowering light. If this is a viable spectrum and ratio I'd plan on making one for veg, removing the UVB and FarRed and adding the extra 14% to the Blue spectrum. Any help would be really appreciated, happy toking!
