Okay boys so I recently Posted a article on growers network about If UVA photons stimulate UVR8 receptors and someone replied with
“400nm is adequate to activate these triggers”
But UVA photons emitted at this wavelength aka 400nm have nearly the same energy as visible light photons emitted at 400nm and visible light photons cannot stimulate UVR8 receptors so neither can 400nm UVA,
you need shorter wavelength UV photons to trigger increased cannabinoid production.
UVA light photons emitted near the 400nm boundary have longer wavelengths vs UVA photons emitted near the 315nm boundary, so UVA photons emitted near the 315nm boundary which have shorter wavelengths are more efficient in activating the UVR8 receptors in plants.
I am no expert, just a man with a hobbie so if I am wrong please explain why so that I can update this Article.
Thnx love DGL - Top Shelf Runs
