BOOST UVA UVB IR 60
The F.O.G BOOST UVA-UVB-IR LED bar is the latest high-tech gem developed by our research and development centre in Switzerland.
THIS 3-IN-1 LED BAR CONSISTS OF
UVA-UVB LEDs
To boost your yield, active compound content and terpenes.
FAR-RED LEDs
To modify your plants’ morphology, increase internode spacing and yield, and activate the Emerson effect.
This spectrum directly influences resin quality and quantity during flowering
SEOUL VIOSYS UVB LED
310 nm, latest technology
SEOUL VIOSYS UVA LED
385 nm, latest technology
When the right amount of UV is present
Increases oils, resin, and THC and CBD levels.
Speeds up seed germination.
Increases root mass.
Promotes flowering.
Produces more branching and less stretch.
Improves taste and aroma.
Produces sturdier plants.
Increases resistance to insects, bacteria and fungi.
Strengthens plants and better prepares them for high-intensity light.
Reduces shock time and speeds up production and yield.
When UV is present at high doses
Can reduce yield, slow photosynthesis and damage plants.
A plant’s natural defence mechanism
To protect themselves against the effects of ultraviolet radiation, cannabis plants develop a natural defence mechanism.
Trichome formation, with alkaloids and flavonoids acting as photoprotective molecules, protects your plants.
A denser layer of resin, with more THC, forms to protect them from ultraviolet radiation.
Lydon et al., 1987 - UVB radiation effects on photosynthesis growth and cannabinoid production of two cannabis sativa chemotypes
Plants grown indoors without UV exposure may miss out on these benefits. That is why it is important to choose indoor grow lighting that includes UV at the right dose.
Although we use the latest SEOUL VIOSYS UV LED chip technology, the service life of a UV LED chip remains shorter than that of red and white LED chips.
We have therefore chosen to add UV separately to our grow lights so as not to reduce the service life of the whole unit. This means you can replace components in the future at lower cost and adopt future technologies without limits.
This spectrum directly influences plant morphology and flowering
PROLIGHT FAR-RED LED
730 nm
When the right amount of FAR-RED is present
Triggers flowering faster in long-day plants.
Makes plants stretch.
Increases terpenes.
Provides warmth to plants.
Activates the Emerson effect.
When there is too much FAR-RED
Causes stretch that is detrimental to yield.
Risk of burning plants.
Adds too much heat to the crop.
APPLICATIONS
To increase stretch during the vegetative stage
Switch on the BOOST 18 h per day during the vegetative stage
To increase active compounds and terpenes
Switch on the BOOST 12 h per day during the last 3 weeks of flowering
To acclimatise your cuttings before moving them outdoors or under high light intensities, to avoid stress
Switch on the BOOST 18 h per day for 3 days before moving your plants outdoors
Strengthening plants to reduce pathogens such as powdery mildew and mites
Switch on your BOOST 18 h per day during the vegetative stage and 12 h per day during flowering
Note: plants will stretch
Use 1 BOOST UVA UVB IR unit (15 W, 60 cm) for growing areas of 0.8 m × 0.8 m and 1 m × 1 m
