    Adding UVB spectrum to COBs - opinions on this setup?

    cool yeah, as suspected no UVB on the standard LED setup Agromax saying in effect then that 64uw/cm2 is a safe limit for amount of UVB if they recommend a distance of 4 feet - are you running these agromax lights, do you have them on normal lighting schedule? thanks

    Adding UVB spectrum to COBs - opinions on this setup?

    ouch! so the agromax T5 Pure series lists "UV" output at 64 microwatts/cm2 at a distance of 4 Feet (on their website) - so will assume 48 microwatts/cm2 as this is 75% of 64 ? i cant get these bulbs where i live anyway so that rules them out Exo Terra UVB200 26 watt lists UVB output at 225...
