No doing the Clear Inc method IMO increases trich production, flavor and speeds up the flowering time..Clear inc's are mostly 660/730.. It dose increase potency a fair amount but not double.. You need to run 17 plus hours of PAD lighting in order to a least double your potency.. IMO the best way of using clear inc's with an HPS is "Rauber's Substitution Method" Chapter 10 in the PAD Manual.. I also mix 27k cfl's with the clear inc's wile doing "Rauber's Substitution Method" works good in my garden. But that's for a standard 12/12 flower. Not a 12/12/24hr fllowering..:thumbsup:
Dogznova Reviewed by Dogznova on . HID Time factor manipulation I've been following the UV-B thread for a while. Cool stuff. Makes me want to get back into growing. But, what really gets me going is the Martian stuff and the light time factors for increasing tric production. I seems to me that, unless you've got a ton of cash for LED's or have alot invested in HPS setups already, it's really hard to get down to the magic 1.8 and decent yield. However, I have some ideas to get closer: Fluorescent Supplemental Lighting: http://kinoflow.com has HO Rating: 5
