Experimenting with UVB bulb

Hey guys I'm going to be doing a little experiment and wondering if anyone has any input. I have a UVB 10.0 high output bulb that I used for lizards I use to breed. I read awhile back that there was very little info on using one on a cannabis grow but a few articles I found said that the bulbs actually make the plants go into defense mode during flowering, producing more THC or just making the plant stronger. Has anyone ever used one or have any further information on the subject? I'm going to have mine switch on daily at night for 6hrs on my autos to experiment nonetheless..

I ran lizard lights with HPS and noticed an increase in quality. Now I run HPS & MH together, so I've already got plenty of UV.
Nice, how long did you run the Uvb's ?..I was told to start running them maybe 30min at a time..and work it up more per week

Sulfur will help with aroma and overall quality. It's all about balance. Healthy plants produce the best bud. Starving plants of N and/or overdosing on PK is counterproductive.

That's y if you run your beastie bloomz things like that you also add a little of your normal flower feed so that way it still gets the nitrogen needed
