Hello acursedblade,

Just so I know what I'm dealing with, you have 8- 100w CFLs. Is that actual 100watt bulbs or incandescent equivalent watts? Meaning the bulbs are abt 23 watts each?

IMHO, infared supplemental lights will not add anything to growth rate or finished product.
UV is dangerous to your eyes and skin, and should not be entered into lightly.
There is a thread, in advance techniques, called UVb an experiment, where I conducted a few tests. There is also some light spectrum discussion's there.
