Ive thought about adding some of the UV bulbs to my grow to see if it helps add additional resin.But ive decided against it because of the add to the electric bill.
The other issue with it is it really has to be run in veg also to do any measurable difference in THC production.(not resin)although the two almost always go together.
If i were not trying to control the power bill i would try it out.
I do turn down the digital ballasts the last two days before i pick.They are already done by then and so resinous i cant tell if the lower light does anything or not.
Even the little things..if you do enough of them it adds up to large results.

Just because a plant CAN grow 24/0 doesn't mean it is best.
I have seen an experiment with clones under 3 different schedules.
24/0 was the worst every single time it was performed.
20/4 was best
18/6 was much better than 24/0.

Light degrades THC. Harvesting your plant before lights come on will give you a higher THC percentage. Ask UncleBen he has been saying it for years.

I'm glad we're talking about 48 hrs before harvest again........

I'm interested in this topic, but it went to the left talkin about veg periods n such.

Can you send me a link to this experiment, who conducted it, etc.? Would enjoy reading it.
