Changing light schedule causing bleaching?

[Nick Steele]

Okay so I’m going from my old light settings that would go up and down throughout the day Pic 1 below to the AB+ schedule Pic 2. I am curious if this is causing my pink hammer to bleach.

Pic 1 old light schedule

New light schedule (ramping up only UV and V channels 2% a day till I get to 119% UV and V)

Hammer is the only thing that is looking bad I’ve noticed some bleaching on day two of ramping up. Only thing that changed is 4% higher V and UV and a constant 80% blue and royal blue for the day. Little hard to see but almost a line down the center that is the original color and outsides are lighter.

I don’t see bleaching. Is the color just “popping” ( god I hate that word) differently?

It’s not a pop thing it use to be very “pink” now it has these clear looking tentacles. And some that look like they are about to become clear like the others.

I circled the original colors tentacles and the ones out are definitely more clear.
