He's asking about uv leds which if you read it he says he hasn't bought them yet. I'm not trying to be a dick here but I constantly see you coming to conclusions before reading peoples posts. And it comes off as if your being an ass. I know your not because I do appreciate all the help you give to people. But if your second language is English then maybe proofread before posting. My second language est le Francais alors je dois lissez deux ou trois fois pour comprender. You are definitely an asset and don't take my comment to hard. To answer. Uv leds aren't the greatest option these days. Most go for the reptile fluorescent bulbs for uv.
There was some info floating around suggesting 10% of the total wattage is what you should add in uvb. Now take that with a grain of salt as this was not science based but just what a few growers had reported as the amount that gave them the best results. That being said as stated lizard cfl would be the easiest and get you true uvb. Alot of the LEDs that claim uv aren't uvb which defeats the purpose.Hi there, I'm completely new to led and I ordered 20m of smd 5050, 3R:1B 15m of red and 5 of blue, I was looking at uv lights and I wondered how many should I buy but I couldn't find any information on the relation for UV, could any of you guys give me some advice? thank you in advance
but the op did, he had a specific question. you attacked him for buying stuff he not even asked about. then you were noticed about it and you keep on babbling more about stuff not asked by the op.
Thank you all for your answers, I found some reptile lights with uvb and I intend to put them on for 1h a day, anyway I was looking at this chart.
Alright now I'm starting to understand uv light! thanks for the info I've found the perfect one according to your specifications
Hahaha I took French a loooooong time ago. The verbs are what get me everytime. I'm sure you understood.
The more weed you smoke, the better your English. Coincidence?
UVA does not excite your plants the way UVB does. It's not very desirable.Thank you all for your answers, I found some reptile lights with uvb and I intend to put them on for 1h a day, anyway I was looking at this chart.

And I'm thinking I could put on the UVA LED (390-405nm) along with the blue ones, it's ok to put 10% of the amount of watts? could uva burn my plants the way uvb does? thank you again it's been very helpful
My panel is 50cm*40cm and the closet 1m tall.
Ah, so YOU want a free pass for being ignorant in a second language, but you spent time and effort berating someone else for trying to use their skills productively?
I wasn't tearing down his english at all homie. I clearly said he should read it twice before commenting. We're all trying to help and learn here. I don't think he took it as hard as you did. I put forth an option to the OP as well about using florescent tunes. Smoke up and chill out
