To those that know me and know my growing style and how I dabble with light and light deprivation to were the sun's at in the sky at any given time of the year or growing season.
So it should come to no surprise to you that I would be studying light.
I've been studying Deep Red or far red light in the ( 630 nm to 800 nm ) and also deep far deep blue below 400 nm technology in the photosynthesis of the Cannabis and hemp plant at Utah State University.
Long story short. I'm working on light recipes to grow my plants better inside and to help know what plants will benefit from shading or non shading in the outside grow.
I've come to find out the deep red past the normal PAR Spectrum... in the ( 630 to 800 nm ) spectrum produces more yield, heavier foliage and stem elongation.
The technology still being developed but these aren't theories these are known tests with confirmed results from Cannabis, lettuce, tomatoes, and other crops for food and for medical.
The information or classes are relevant as it is only 6 months old and being tout at Utah State University.
Utah state University is one of the few universities in the country that has a license to study cannabis hemp and marijuana. They're studying all crops but they're focusing on cannabis too for the first time. This is becoming a real benefit to my mindset as I've learned so much in just the last six months of studying with Professor Dr. Bruce Bugbee. he wrote a paper in 1989 it changed thoughts about light and has been funded by NASA for the last 33 year's...so the guy really knows his shit. He's no wack he's definitely on top of everything he has many grads and undergrads doing tests up on tests.
Well if you're into it anyways it's phenomenal to listen and read about these technological breakthroughs in light.
