    Ive heard from an UNreliable source that these lights (particularly UVB) will increase THC content and speeeed up Trichrome development.

    Reptile lights only provide 5% uvb which is what you want so basically 5% sucks,use proper tanning tubes which can produce uva or uvb,use the uvb tubes only and youll see ten times more difference than a reptile light.
    At this moment i am searching to find out if i can fit a 100watt uvb sunbed tube into a standard 100watt fluro fitting,of the correct length.

    Here is a list of tubes that i found:
    LONG LIGHT - Low Pressure Tubes (UVB)
    Code Type Description Power(W) Length (L) UV-A mW/cm2 UV-B/UV-A Diameter (D) MPI14943 07.80 Tube ISO Light 80 W R07 80 1500 20 0,7 600 MPI14942 07.100 Tube ISO Light 100 W R07 100 1760 24 0,7 600 MPI14938 10.80 Tube ISO Light 80 W R10 80 1500 20 1,0 600 MPI14939 10.800 Tube ISO Light 100 W R10 100 1760

    damn that looks awful to try to read heres a link to the page that i found,go to the bottom for the uvb tubes:

    UVB light definitely works but be careful with it and find the correct distance and amount at a slow pace if i were you.
    I was gonna buy a facial tanner but if i can buy a pure uvb tube and it will fit into a 100 watt fluro tube fitting that would be a lot better for me seeing as i already have the tube fitting

    Is a blacklight the same? Does it give off UVB?
