Unlock the Power of True UV with the Mammoth UV Upgrade Kit
Key Features:
Why UV Light Matters: UV wavelengths wield remarkable power. They can alter a plant's color, flavor, and aroma, often making them more appealing to humans while acting as a deterrent to certain insects. Plants with increased levels of these flavor and aroma compounds are less likely to be targeted by insects. Furthermore, strong evidence suggests that UV light can help prevent the spread and severity of fungal spores and increase THC.

Recommendation: While UV usage is still considered experimental, we recommend deploying it during the last 2-3 weeks of flowering, or up to the full 12-hour cycle. This strategy aims to potentially reduce powdery mildew and microbial presence, resulting in cleaner cannabis. Additionally, UV exposure can trigger a stress response that may enhance cannabinoid production. It's worth noting that UV can be damaging to plant DNA and reduce yield if used during the heavy bulking stage. However, it's reassuring to know that we have not encountered yield reduction or hermaphrodite issues with our UV kit.
For those considering using UV during the vegetative stage, please be aware that UV diodes have a limited lifespan of 10,000 hours.
