*not sure what uv-b does either :( hopefully someday :)

--nope, no need for it to grow indoors.. thinking of it as an additive of some sorts. lol
----one researcher states that uv-b asorbs some of the wave as stored energy.. for what.. who knows...

--i dont believe cannabis makes resin for pest control... but like i said, no factual scientific data other than (he said, she said).
Most of the science behind MJ seems to have started out wrong anyway. Think we all know without the need for (althought they would be nice) scientific studies that UV dose increase trich production.

I have never ever seen a plant not be a product of its environment and MJ originally grew in high locations with plentifull UV so more than makes sense. The fact that you follow somthing which has little consequence to most growers is whats best about weed, we take it to the next level and then some, you rarelly find a tomato grower doing what us bigboys do!lol!

So i found zero info on envirolite and UV produced so i am inclined to agree with you it dosent look good but i still get some damn frosty plants and i know under MH and HPS that this would not be the case and less frosty because of them. Only thing i can say about that is i grow mix spectrum through veg and flower, equal red and blue light.

So the UV light theory might be shown in direct correlation with reguards to Himilayan originating strains and Ruderals which to my knowledge come from Russia or similar locations. One is a big budded frosty strong thc producing plant and the other due to its irregular photoperiods, low light and next to no UV light is a squat small budded autoflowering low thc unfrosty plant with respect to the original Himilayan strains. Peace

I like the Reptile 60W incandescent. UV-b. In my opinion for this to work, they need enough UV. Those bulbs are measured after many hours of operation, and are specifically high in UV-b. They deliver

**thats what acually got me started.. read a similar insert in one of the old 80s grow books about elevation having some sort of (impact) on thc+ lvls.. etc etc

*yes they do actually :)
Although unfortunatly not the ones packed with THC and originally i think tomatos were vines.

Yep i like all sides of marijuana growing, push them yeilds for minimun costs. I will consider a reptile light in the future but think i can get somthing more in the two foot flourescent style to provide me some UVB as this would be way more convinient.

Elevation has lots of different effects on plants and higher UVB rays would mean natural selection would prevail. I dont see why there were never any conclusive studies done over this, well officially. Marijuana seems to be missed out of a lot of plant biology studies over the years. They use to say marijuana wasnt addictive but i pointed out that if i dont have a joint things were not pretty so how can they say i wasnt addicted, things have changed in the last few years there though and now in my country it is addictive.

Peace

I have not measured it but my pl-l flouros are supposed to produce a little uv. With them close to the plants for the full photo period they should get quite a lot of uvb. A full on uv light is too extreme for me to deal with.

KG1, I think you'll find that the incandescent UV-b will put out more UV-b and more pure UV-b than a fluoro bulb. I would not at all recommend fluoros for UV

Some of the flouro companies i use have reptile bulbs, now they seem to think they provide the right light spectrum for these, would that not suggest some UV light as well.

And just to say that if the 250w cfl's arent the cause for turning white plastic in my flower room beige tan colour over the space of a year then what is? plastic degredation from uv light is well documented, i see this happen in my flower room under big ass cfl's. Please clarify the whole uv/cfl flouro debate as i find it misleading, surely the same effect is had on my plant leaves as on the white plastic. Peace

When I looked at all of this a couple years ago before making the plunge, there were some reports / threads out there that measured the wavelength and output in new and old bulbs. It was found that some bulbs did not put out what they claimed. Others had UV-b drop significantly in 6 months.
