So i have a HOB breeder box (thats powered by an air pump) that im turning into a fuge. It already has a bunch of gha growing in it from my display light so its already functional but i need some suggestions and guidance.
So im planning on wrapping the box with an led strip but what color should i have the light run on? Should i run heavy red, red w/white or just a bright white?
How long and what time should i have the led running? I remember hearing that running a fuge messes with ph.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Running a fuge lowers CO2 via photosynthesis, a good thing. Many of us run our fuges at night to offset the daytime photosynthesis. Most led fixtures run reds, blues and some whites. I see the horticulture lights put out pink, so a mix or those colors.
