Hi,

Can any one tell me about Supplement UV lights please 😀 

I am looking at the AC inifity UV lion lights , my tent will be a 4x4 , I have a q6w san light already

Can anyone tell me , what do they do ( I hear tales of increased THC and terp production ) ?

How do you use them ?

Are they worth the extra cash ?

Are there alternative worth considering

Thank you for help

Pretty much, you give the plants a blast of the UV light for around 15 mins a day during the flowering stage. The plant will produce more resins and oils with trichomes to try to stop the plants DNA being affected by the UV light. The UV damages the DNA, much like it does to people. We use sunscreen to try to prevent it, cannabis plants produce more trichomes and shit as a sunblock. 

From what I have seen, they do a decent job, but I have never used one. Each model will be different. So its best to check with the model you have to decide how long you expose the plants to it and how often.

I think the UV and CO2 environments are examples of the last 10% of anything taking 90% more effort.

If you want your pot to be 23% instead of 22%, go for it.
