Light ???

My mass isn't crazy huge yet, but there's definitely something to say about that building frost.

I was never arguing with anyone here and RM3 and I have been communicating here for days.

I don't think we have a problem with each other he just a few minutes ago complimented me on my achievements. so why do you have a problem with me?

And if I can finish trying to put up a web link I can pretty much settle this debate with at least professors of university results.

As for my grow, using only a 450w for two decently medium sized (3 feet from the medium), I have this. I'm going to give it three more weeks, and I'll have a second 450w light by Friday or Saturday. Should help a bit. They are only just starting to swell a bit.

They look like they will fill out real nice.

I don't have an issue. You said "What have you done for your grow?" I mistook it for a cocky challenge. If I misperceived what you'd said, I truly apologize.

Of course. But every factor in your room and genetics will determine the results. All things need to be adequate to luxery range for a plant. Only then can we achieve the plants potential.

Can someone tell me how to put up a web page link please? I am on an iPhone but not connected to the cloud so I don't have an automated option.

 

[Olive Drab Green]

Just copy and paste the URL. Should turn into a hyperlink.

 

[MichiganMedGrower]

I will try again thanks.

Please don't ask me to look up the referred studies. I swear I had them in my old computer. And I read everything I could. I was not trying to spew any mis information.

And yes. The article is two years old now. It was new when I learned it. I am asking for new info here in the light thread but not getting any.

That article is about the whole blue for veg red for flower thing, doesn't mention usin it to finish a plant?

Hell some growers use mercury vapor for the UV and that includes GW Pharma

Why be a purist? Mix & match can work out great!
I've never had a T5, but if I did, I'd find a way to add it to my setup.

MV is an excellent UVB source.

There is no proof of anything in this post but that you are defending RM3

First, everyone is not required to do your legwork for you. Second, I was just relating my own experience. After going MH all the way for a year I switched to HPS for flower and the trich production was noticeably abysmal in comparison albeit my yield increased. Same strains, same methods. You don't have to believe me but I have a tendency to believe my own eyes. I now have settled into using MH for veg and the first and last 2 weeks of flower. I use HPS augmented with blue t5s for the rest of flower. Last grow I achieved just under 21 zips dry from 6 very sticky plants. May add the Agromax UV bulb soon though.

Other than that , .

The article does not go into full detail of the studies. It pretty much just includes one quote per study. Is that enough to base or argue a premise?

I asked not to have to do the research for you. Do some real research please. Even just look up those studies. I have been asking for something like these studies so I know what to add to my room without blindly financing someone's opinion.

And you guys are refuting without even looking anything up for yourselves. Not a reputable way to teach if my family of PhDs is right.

And is the Hortilux Super HPS spectrum better so I am not disappointed by a plain HPS?

Hortilux HPS bulbs are definitely worth the extra money.

Is your family of PHDs also entitled dicks like yourself?

No problem bud. I thought you were asking me for credibility.

Not refuting anything, not sayin every one should grow my way, I have only ever shared the results of my personal experiments for others to see and consider and I have over a tig of collected research papers

No reason for name calling, he is actually tryin to learn here let's please be civil

See I want to agree and I use them but I am needing actual proof why. The Hortilux doesn't even have the 3 to 1 ratio but I can't complain about my garden anymore. But it isn't different light that grew all the new trichs I have now.
