It seems like there is some dispute over which wavelengths are ideal for photosynthesis in chlorophyll a and b. All the numbers i've seen are similar, but I was wondering if anyone has come across a study that is particular to cannabis, specifically... or would it not differ plant to plant as the pigments are the same..
Anyways, the reason I ask is because I plan to use LEDs, and want to grab the ideal wavelengths.. I was thinking one blue and one red per each pigment (chlor. a nd b), so four wavelengths total. This is what most data I've seen leads me to believe will work best...
anyways, thanks for any help.. here's the rough data i've come across:
chlorophyll a: 430-440 and 660-680
chlorophyll b: 490 and 650
