Hi,
I have been noticing a lot of these HPS bulbs are now available with improved blue spectrum. These lights do seem much whiter than a regular HPS, but is that even needed or useful when flowering?
Specifically, what is the best bulb to use to get the best yield of really dense, dank, super sticky buds?
I've tried to find the answer, but have only found conflicting information.
For example, I read that Rosenthal did an experiment with a MH on one side of the room and a HPS on the other. It was stated that the flowering in the middle (mixed lighting) was better than that under the MH, but still not as good as that under the pure HPS.
So, is the blue even needed when flowering, or should I just stick to the normal, really yellow HPS?
Any experience you guys can share would be really appreciated, as I'm trying to get the best results I can with my new Blueberry grow.
