Hey I'm loving researching building my own grow light lately and would like to add UVA/UVB in the light and wanted to know everyone's experiences with them. Does UVB work better than UVA? Main reason is I can't find a UVB led but I can find a UVA led.
 
The Agromax bulbs I'm using are strong. So strong that I've already dialed back the on time and have raised them 30 inches above the canopy. The Hortilux bulbs are not nearly as strong and those I keep on freshly rooted clones.

those UV led are very inefficient. using UV bulbs like california light work use in their led grow lights would be a better option
