I've seen zero difference in my plants with that uva light or without no matter how long I run it. Reminds me I've been meaning to hook it back up just since I paid for it. Been thinking about making it flash for the last week to see if I can maybe stress some more flavor out of the plants

I can definitely tell the difference in that first test!
That was quite a lot of UVA!
One of the easier nonvisual ways to tell the difference was in the leaf thickness. The leaves definitely thickened and stiffened up well before any senescence onset.

Now I do have some UVB fixtures with the fluorescent bulb like Migro has. I'm a bit leery of UVB. I just need to figure out how to schedule using them only a few minutes each hour. And I think I would use it only about a week to 10 days after flowering begins.

I don't know what to say, other than what manufacturer and what kind have you been using?

I have the exact same hlg uva. It's in a 4x4. Just 1. Seen no difference even in the plants directly under it

Also, if you get a shallow silicone baking dish and let the Everclear air evaporate over a couple of days, you get not only a better yield, but a much more potent and cleaner end product.

Have you ever used a machine like ExtractCraft Source Turbo?

I want explore making tinctures. Especially with growing Dutch Passion's CBG Force. I have two Vets in mind for making tinctures. One has really bad PTSD and this is reported to help quite considerably with that. I know I felt a real Calming effect when I smoked it.
And the other has really bad bronchial spasms with his asthma. I also noticed less tightness in my bronchial tubes when I vaped the rosin I squeezed. Maybe the calming effect has some effect on the bronchial tubes..

A tincture would allow the medicine to get to them very quickly and very effectively. That would be very helpful with my asthma veteran. Vape and smoke are outta the question and the oil will take too long.
