I always get tickled at people who talk and talk and talk and see the results in front of their eyes, but they just keep talking (I am not talking about you thewanderingjack, just in general). To you people who yap incessantly questioning others, yes all of you, either take a shit or get off the pot.

Yeah, discussion is good, I love a good "what if?" and playing devil's advocate... but argumentative poop flinging is just... idk bat $h!t crazy?

My take is that every system and set up has a place. CFLs were kick ass for getting me started growing, but some people insist you can't grow a decent plant using CFL. Some whack nut cursed me out in some other thread because he said LED users were all just struggling... which I'm not in the least, and said so (not rudely... just said "I use one, and I'm not struggling")... of course he also seemed to have a problem with organic growing for some reason...

I don't see where doing anything vertical (other than side lighting) can benefit me in my space (3Wx4Lx4H) in terms of production that I can't achieve with Topping, LST and/or SOG/SCROG... But it would be amazing if I raised my H up to 7 ft... I could then make a tower with center lighting and fit waaaay more plants. It would also be too much pot for me at one time... and more work to maintain (more plants, more work).

I should think things would be better if a) there were separate forums for commercial growers (just looking for max yields) and hobbyists (looking for max yields out of certain situations, or looking to experiment) b) people didn't choose to troll... it seems a lot of times arguments are started when someone purposefully goes into threads they disagree with just to argue that the whole idea is crap.
