    Inda-gro Induction...

    Thanks Chazbolin, Been following GG for a bit. Some amazing grows. I'd love to know how this stacks up. Either way, it is doable. And I read a lot of good things from EH of Area51. So I believe these are the 3 to choose between. The pontoons looks amazing. I love the light weight. Where i...

    Inda-gro Induction...

    Hey guys, I'm happy to have found this thread. I've read about half of it. I'm sure I've missed a lot. I have a few questions if someone wouldn't mind. Am I right in assuming that sog is the best way to use these lights? I know that greengene is here in this thread as well - and I'm curious...

    IF you are new to LED and want help choosing what to buy, POST HERE!

    This is the first I have heard of induction lights. They sound fascinating. Anyone know how the Pro-420-PAR-Pontoon might stack up against HID and LED (Area 51, AT) quality and production wise? The question is, how does it work in real life with what we grow in comparison to Area 51 and AT?

    Well, since no one else apparently has the balls to respond to this, I guess I will. Keeping this adult like, I think your assessment of MonkeyChief is wrong. I have known him for quite some time. He doesn't rep anything. He has nothing for sale. He does have pretty strong opinions based on a...

    That's what I did too. Started small and then was in a position to really understand what my next step would be.

    Like pretty much everything, doing things well costs. I'm not one to feel the need to buy a Bentley just to say that I have one of the most expensive cars possible. But a Mercedes or even a Land Rover are very nice. :-). Lately I keep reading about so many people trying to grow in a 4 x 4 or 5...

    I think there's also something really positive about pointing out the negatives. It keeps companies honest. If they think they can produce crap and nobody will say anything about it, then they just keep doing it. When enough people point out what's happening, sales drop and customer service gets...

    Your info has been exceptionally helpful, MonkeyChief. As I expand my flower space by about five times or more, I will definitely be going with your recommendations. I am not trying to see how little watts I can use - but instead trying to see if I can keep all of the quality of LED and bring...

    Thank you for the apology. It would be best if you had left it at just that. I'm not arguing with anyone. I point out specific issues that I may think differently about, but that's what this is all about. People talking and trying to figure out the best way to go or alternate ways to go etc...

    I don't know who you are referring to when you say "you guys". But do not include me in that. I have not said anything against Hans panels. And why would I have? I have never used one. Anything I say would simply be an opinion of someone who never used one. From all I can tell, the guy does a...

    In the first place, there's no need to be an ass. In the second place, I can spell perfectly well. And if this forum is a spelling contest, then you win. Due to an issue of some nerve damage in my hands I generally use voice dictation instead of typing. It will consistently make errors of the...

    Actually, I have Chinese panels and did have a problem and it was very quick and simple to get it resolved. I don't know if it would be that way in every case, but it certainly was in mine. What I have found is, If I am a bit flexible in how things are resolved, it's every bit as good of a deal...

    Hey MonkeyChief, You have really been cranking out some great info. Thanks for all you are sharing. I can't find the original post, So I will quote you from an e-mail I received... (4) GEHL X-Grow series 126 x 3w. Each panel will give u 126x3w (six cluster) *1715 umol @ 30cm *, and...

    Ummm, maybe that's the reason. But frankly, if my lights only worked for three years (instead of the claimed 5 years) until I had to buy new ones and had a third more power, I would be happier. 3 W are running just about as powerfully as the 5 W. 3 W are more efficient by far. And really, what...

    Not sure who you are speaking to. I will most likely not be starting a journal. But we'll see. As you said, you have seen people do journals with these lights and they work fine. They are working for me. There are probably much better lights out there. But for the cost and the way they perform...

    Listen, people will talk crap all the time. You got to do the research yourself and make your own mind up. I looked into LEDs for quite some time until I finally made the decision to go with LGLED. I'm not saying they are the best lights out there by any stretch of imagination. In fact, I...

    Nonsense - most all LED lights are made in China. I have two Mars ll 1200's, one Mars ll 900 and a small blue UFO from them and they are working just fine. LG_LED is a very good company. I have received 3 orders from them and each time they have done exactly as they said they would.

    Hey Hazey - I like your style. Opinions are good. :-) Would you mind sharing your opinion with me on a couple of things? Curious what you think about Sannies Seeds? Can you recommend a strain that produces a high, not stoned effect- is a good social high, daytime, active use, doesn't cause...
