Thread: Growing with blacklights

yeah im thinking about starting to grow a few plants. 1 question i have is i heard that blacklights as a light source are actually better for the plants, and produces better buds. is that true?

I think that's a hippy myth.

That is a bogus myth. If you use black lights, you will starve your plants of the true light spectrums they need and they will die.

there is nothing that can replicate the sun, anything that contains the same spectrums or very close to the same is what you want.... but i dont grow indoors so i really dont know much about lighting and such..... so really i have no bussiness answering this thread.
