Led Users Unite!

I've been reading about led lights for quite some time, is there anyone can tell me what does UVB mode use for? And what's the function for UVA and UVB leds? I only know UV is an effective insect deterrent. It is deadly to small pests that like to damage plants.:confused:
 
Wanted to show you my results so far.
Space is 60x60cm. Lights are 2 x CXA 3070 (100 W).
The girls are 2 Auto NL on the left at 55 days and on the right Girls Scout Cookies - 2 weeks into flowering.

Google search for a thread called.."UVB VS NO UVB Side by Side" its on another forum

or pick up the infamous book.. Marijuana Botany: An Advanced Study, by Robert Connell Clarke and read about how UV-B light and how it is important for creating a "fully realized" cannabinoid profile.

Someone used it...then throw it in a trash can...and yes jump on it, then hit it very hard on the floor and other things that i can't say on a public forum, things who could hurt sensitive soul...

Foreal what would you suggest
 
Bonjour
I agree with CanadianOne...
Diy or you will have to pay ridiculous amount of $$$ to get a good panel...to be honest I find todogrowled pretty cheap for the quality part they use,but it is in Spain and shipping cost may change the price from simple to double...I think it is a good alternative for U.E growers!
Try to find an unhappy cree/vero user's post somewhere on riu you will have white hair before you find one...or maybe you already have some but you know what I mean!
Have a great day™
 
Fellas,

I dont have a grow journal but i have some photogenic beauties. These are all growing under vero 29 and cxb 3590 combo light UVB added.

There is one exception, JB X MS, that popped outside 7/15 been outside ever since. It will be coming inside once I get a little flower room space. I think I finally got a good structure for production on that plant. I've had a few set backs in my training game lately.

All plants are growing roots through the bottom of their fabric pots.

In my other tent, I've got a couple of Ace of Spade S1's going, along with a Grape Ape x Platinum Cookies cross foundling.

Ace of Spades (Jack's Cleaner pheno)
AoS JC pheno w4.jpg
Very narrow, sativa style, leafs on this one. Seems to be a light yielder, so far. Looks like it takes after the Jack's Cleaner side of the family. She has a very sweet, candy-like, aroma. She's just starting to show some decent resin production.

Ace of Spades (Hybrid pheno)
AoS Hybrid pheno w4.jpg
Very thick, fluffy, pistils on this girl. Looks to be a better yielder than her sister although her resin production is a bit behind. She also has a rather sweet aroma, but it's much more complex than her sisters, and I really enjoy it. I'm hoping this one will show me some Black Chery Soda characteristics.

Grape Ape x Platinum Cookies
GAxPC w4.jpg
Already has great resin production at week 4 of flower and is filling in nicely. Her overall structure resembles GA but her increased resin production screams PC.
