So i was smokin and thought of if anyone has ever tried using lights outside with the sun to add more light.. sounds stupid to do, but theoretically it should only promote growth? specially if the bulbs focus on the range you need them in. Or would the sun just over power the ligh emitted from the bulbs. Just an idea. Anyone have any answers? Sounds dumb to do. but id like to know lol.

hehe pretty funny.
I guess it could work on a cloudy day.
But I dont think you wouldn't see any difference.
Plus how would that look?
not very stealthy with a extension cord and lights propped pointing at an MJ plant.

that's how most commercial greenhouses operate.
its a transparent building to utilize sunlight, but with lights inside to supplement.

uvb lights make more resin out of what i seen im trying it my self this year resin is the uv protector so more uv light more resin but for lighting i would not wast the power unless its not very sunny. my friend back home loves it says makes the stickiest stuff he has ever made and he dose control tests on every thing he dose and but i dont know about normal lighting

out of what i know its the Reptile Lighting not the uv ones it needs to be a uvb light dont for get tho UVB lighting is dangerous tho keep it on the plant not on you. uv rays on a cloudy day are the same as on a sunny day thats how ppl get sunburns on cloudy days but if you look were the really sticky stains come from are high in uv light. you can have 2 clones of the same plant one under norm lighting and one with the uvb the one with uvb will have more resin or is more sticky then the other i have heard that it even helps Trichome production.
