My IR and UV are built into my light…they are on if the light is on…kinda like the sun.

I run è uva bars and a 50 w far red from lights on to lights off and I don’t believe it does any harm at most I see a bit more tric coverage as the trics build more kinda like a suntan lotion for leaves to help keep them at bay with all the light and uv or stuff. Now they do say that 15 min before and after lights on and off for far red helps the plants relax and sleep better and it helps wake them up a bit better I’ve yet to have tried this but I’m sure with all the info it’s gotta be a benefit to it
Every time I fire up my uva supplement light I get issues. It’s probably a “me” thing but I have almost no confidence in it…
