Dears,
I'm wondering whether there's an actual benefit from the IR/UV diodes that current grow light manufacturers (namely the chinese) put in their lights. To be clear, I'm not asking if IR/UV rays are beneficial to the plant. I'm asking about the efficacy of the diodes used. For example. I've read about how current lights lack UV-B (as opposed to UV-A, or the other way around) so the UV diodes are useless. I believe grow lights now carry 720nm IR diodes. So basically, would there be much difference between a grow light with UV/IR diodes and another that doesn't, assuming they have same chips and power? Thanks!
