HLG UVA supplement

mtnDEWDstarted grow question 3 years ago

Introduced this hlg 30 uva light as a supplement to the twin 260s. I've read just 3 hours a day increasing 1 hour per week up to 4-6 hours before harvest. Anyone recommend anything differently or just run it 18/6 with the lights?

I'd say run it while lights are on. But I give my plants more light then I probably should lol.

Thanks aquemini, I'm probably going to do that since it mocks an avg day outdoors basically. GrowCN, will do. I also just ordered a FGI 730nm deep red 45" light bar to run with this uv light

I also run two HLG 260's but do not have a UV light. Please keep your diary updated and include some notes about your UV usage. I would love to see what works for you.

ViparSpectra XS 1000 (x2) vs. HLG 100 RSpec (x2)Thoughts on VS XS 1000 (x2) vs. me buying HLG 100 RSpec (x2)? They'd go to either side of my HLG 225 in a tent that's 2.75' deep and 5' wide to 'fill the wings' more evenly. Thoughts on build, safety, quality & heat?

My grow kit will arrive this week. is there anything I need to watch out for considering the fact that they only have stood by the window (mostly cloudy weather) for most of their lives? I don't want them to get overloaded with the rays of my growlight 😇

Yellowing leaves after first Mainline top. Light stress?Just checking in here, I am pretty sure this is light stress. it was at 18" (specs say 18-24" during veg) and she was likely pretty stressed after having her top cut off!!! I have raised light to 23". Am I on the right track here?

Found a cheap light that I think would be perfect in my small tent, would it?Would this light be good to add to my setup?

Swapping lights during flowering Do you guys think that swapping lights at the late flowering stage is going to harm my girls in any way? Been fortunate enough to be able to order myself a Viparspectra xs4000 to replace the v600. And as I understand it should be quite an upgrade. Thanks for any advice!

Set Up Tent How should I set up my carbon filter, exhaust fan & air ducts? I’m in limited space right now but want to make sure I get good air circulation still. I set it up the wrong way the last time I had it up but it was already up so I just left it. Also, my fans. Where should they go ?

Should I substitute sunlight with a grow lamp on cloudy days?It’s overcast here today and I’m wondering if I should turn my grow lights on to compensate for the lack of direct sunlight. If so, should I drop the intensity to compensate for the additional natural light? Can you overdo the amount of light (not heat) a plant gets?

Mars TSL 2000 doubt I just installed my new Mars TSL 2000 and noticed that some of the IR LEDs are more faded than the others. Is it normal in LED lights? Also the LEDs distribution is different than the advertised. Ripped off or just a different model?
