LED/CFL grow with Infared and UVB...looking for any suggestions

Hey everyone I'm at my third week of flower, Been using a 90 watt LED UFO, 19 watt CFLs 8 of them, 2 24 watt strip fluoros, and have recently added Infared bulbs and UVBs as well. Things are going well but there is always room for improvement. So thats why I'm here any tips. check out my journal Thanks

Co2 helps, and there are do-it-yourself methods

From what i have heard plants can suffer damage from UV lights. I dont know if they respond to the IR band of the spectrum. The source posted below says that IR could damage them as far as heat. I know working from in restaurants, IR can cook food.

Yes I think with IR all you will be getting is heat which would normally not be a good plan unless you leave up at the N. Pole or something like that. Now I been running UVB bulbs for a year or 2. Started out with a 10% CFL Lizzard Light and it will scorch your babies bad if you leave it on long enough. Wound up breaking the bulb and went down to a 5% which will also scorch if your not careful. I run it one hour per day in bloom. Might could run it longer but I'm gun shy after after having charred the crops a few times.

Drynroasty I actually just added 2 one gallon sugar yeast set ups to my grow last week
Greensister & Bigwheel I have the 2 2 foot 10% UVB that I run 14 hours a day and haven't had a problems I run the IR for 5 mins before the lights come on and 5 mins after they go off. I heard it was suppose to imitate sunrise and sunset that you just want to wash the plants with the IR light, Its not really visible to the naked eye, they are 50 watts and I have 2 of them and they don't put off that much heat.

yeah bean,

i don't know what i think about ir after this past grow...

my girls, sativa dom, took a damn long time to show, when I thought they'd be busted fucking quick. I think the only way to see if it works would be to force flowering at 16 hours instead of 12.

it seems like such a silly idea over here... good thing its ed rosenthal approved.

I have 5 26w 10% exoterra uvb's inches from my plants... and no adverse affect yet... just way more resin on those waaay more sexy bits...

Too much arguing with no answers lol, can anyone decide on some agreeable answer? Lol was reading the thread hoping to find a Lil more info on the uv lights.. So do they work? Only in flower? What does it effect?

I'm by no means a guru, but i know how to read. Search the forums for UVB light and there was some good reads both on this site, and linked to other sites.

UVB seems to help resin & trich production in late flowering. From what i have seen, it helps. UVB lights do come with some warnings and a "semi strict" way to use them. Read up on it, dont just take my word for it.

Happy Growing.

Could add an hps light in there and get bigger yields at less exspense that would help lol before any jumps me its a joke it would help but I know this is an led uvb grow ajoke...but it would help a lot lol

Lol ur a douche fletch haha that was pretty funny cuz at first I was like is he fuckin kiddin me??

yeah i was playing around but knew I should add the disclaimer so no one got to madd sorry if I got ya worked up for a sec just playing around hope it all grow well for ya
