I currently use reptile bulbs which barely get into UVB (on all the time) but think I am switching to the agromax bulbs. Ill be watching your thread but if you're asking, would begin my dosage (unless determinate data was provided) measured in μmol/m2/s of UVB correlating to any measurements available of the suns relative intensity (and corresponding UVB intensity) at the location to the species I'm growing. Like in the distribution you posted, there were different UVB readings at different parts of the year, I'd use the max level during summer or June and start there. Is MJ native to the UK?
I didn't mean to come off as a know it all and am enjoying your grow/test!
With respect I disagree about mimicking the sun, but I have no clue! IMO, the plant that we know has been naturally selected to produce the best under the suns conditions and its native environment. We add WV to LED because we found plants have evolved to like certain WV, due to what the sun produces.
I do see your point though, that you're not looking to reproduce the sun, rather measure and test to figure what's best or optimal, not attempt to make an artificial sun. I'm completely on board and am excited to see what you find.
Idk randomblame and am a new member so not familiar with all the history and testing and who did it but am enjoying the site so far. Ill be watching
