  • Shrub has degree in horticulture.. Shrub keeps the light high..

    See how high those are... so, does he need to lower his lights?

    What do you know that he does not? Did you learn it reading it in a thread? Or is this just pushing the "more is better" theory.​


Waooow...thats not even that high did you even read the chart.
Thats also alot more than a 1000 watts.

Is that the first setup you seen like that.

Thats how most are im done with this dumb
argument lol.

That might work for a 250 400 or even a 600 but if you have the amount of wattage to make a grow worth while you are sadly mistaken. I'm guessing you probably got just one light try your theory with six.

So, would it work better if I removed the actual glass from my bulbs? I mean, it has to be eliminating some of the overall output, dont you think?

Yeah.. definitely.. just make sure the ballast is plugged in while removing.

To keep yourself cool while working Stand in a puddle of water..

and where did you get this information? Or did you just make that up?
Experience.. I do not read internet forums for information

RIU you is probably the better of all of the public ones.. But it is still terrible

I like TnT and some folks around here a lot though.

When I say the more you have the higher up I just mean That when you have deep rows and lots of overlapping you need to raise the light higher.

I mean if you are talking the difference between 40 lights and sixty lights there. Changereally is no

I like to get most of my horticulture info from Aggie literature.
i can get it otetty easily through work.

Anyonr can find Aggie lit. t I have access to a very well organized archive. It is an excellent resource i have used countless times.

Experience is king though.
