Buds for Less - CFL BOOK

big ak they are probably up there already, but don't play the man. He has been giving free advice right here everyday all day since I have become a member. And though I like to get things free as well. Everyone has to make a dollar. Think about when your crop isn't worth shit, cause everyone grows and weed should be free. HA HA HA

Don't we all wish weed was free. Even GK needs $50 to get a harvest. Nothing is ever free loco.

Mr. KAK,

Every 12 inches the HID is further form the foliage, the plant looses 1/2 of the lights AVAILABLE lumens...

I have seen more than 100 gardens.... and I have seen lights at all distances...

Yes, you are right, the fitness videos on youtube are free.. and so are the grow videos... I encourage you to watch them...

cheers

Apparently from your previous posts, there are lots of things you don't know.. and yet you still flap your lip about them... ahahahah

think i will order all dvds and put them on limewire bearshare for people to download 4 free will even scan the cover's and put them on too if they not already on that is. power to the people big up to the free world

I wish you would not do that.. I work very hard to travel around and get the footage and information for the DVDs, there is very little money in the making of DVDs and books... less than minimum wage when you average out the hourly efforts..... But if you wish to do that... then it is your choice obviously.. BUT please DON'T...

It's good for me to deal with people like BIG KAK... teaches me stuff...

Ill probably pick one up from amazon.
I was wondering a few things about it first.
Do you go over stuff like lighting arangments, spectrums, wattage?
Is there any info about stress training and how to top your plant or take a perfect cutting??

how many pages?

also.. what does it look like on the Creditcard when you buy that book on your website?

Well I would buy all them books but skerred it could be construed as documentary evidence at a person's trial. I would try to figger out some way to send it by email if it was me. I tried sprout 7 hab seeds in the sponges with the white tail stuck down through a hole in the sponge and got two showing green in areogaden Pro 200 with the ineractive intelligence (sic) feature. You think I shoulda fertilized it a bit? Maybe a little fecal matter etc? Thanks.

You can walk into Barnes and Nobles and buy the book,I did, even though I had a copy, pay cash. no trail. The book is 71 Pages not coutning the roman numeral pages, where he show you what you need to get and do, including soil ph'ing, light setup in detail, another guy duplicated it using other materials, a section on cloning. Pictures for every day of the plants lives from day one, flowering at day 16, harvest on day 69, then trimming and hanging the buds.
Garden Knowm has written an interesting book filled with facts and trivia about life in general and Marijuana and the drug war in particular. He has provided information that will be needed by new growers in my state, Michigan, when we pass the MMJ initiative ths fall. Imaging, with 12 plants allowed they could start GK's setup every four weeks, until its all rotating and harvest 8 oz of bud every month. Garden Knowm did not add any nutes to this grow, only what was already in the soil he used, so don't try to substitute for that, just added ph'd water. His investment was less than $100.00 and I think we have established he didn't use the reflectors that he purchased, they would have interferred with the pictures, don't know for sure what effect that might have had. Maybe you could try it with and without the reflectors and let us know. VV I love you man.

The lamp doesn't lose any of its light.. it's not like, "oops, where did it go?".. the lamp has to cover a larger area with the same amount of light.

The Inverse Square Law.

One advantage for HID users is the cooltube.

Thanks for the clarification

.. it would have been more accurate to say that the light is 50% less effective for every 12 inches it is moved farther from the foliage... this reduction is often stated and or measured in lumens (as I stated)..



Of course I am making the assumption that ONE's goal is to
- get the largest yield possible -

This is a grow forum not a math/physics class... I am trying to convey the point, that the further the light is from the foliage the smaller the yield... and EVERY INCH REALLY MATTERS....

BTW - you can use a cool tube on fluorescents, sausages, your KAK, or around the sun... it is not strictly an advantage for HID users... it is rather a nice feature to add to ONE's HID set up so that ONE can

GET THE LIGHT CLOSER TO THE PLANTS AND INCREASE THE YIELD BY PROVIDING MORE LIGHT TO THE FOLIAGE...

or is it "more lumens" i'll leave that distinction to you...


KNOWING THE INVERSE SQUARE LAW

may be useful to you.... knowing that the closer a light is to the fliage without buring the plant is what is useful to me..

Hey bro, I've got nothing but respect for you and your work. I wasn't making a shot at you. I was just trying to make sure things like "diminishing light" is forgotten.. it is bullshit.. the light doesn't decrease, it spreads over a larger area.. and I think it is more than 50% for every 12".

The reason I get all "scientific" about this stuff is for a better understanding to grow better shit.

The more you know, the more you grow!

Design is very important in any op.. even more so using CFL's.

I'm not bashing bra.. just supporting ya

I wanted to ask you about your book? I ordered it on the 25th last month and I still have not received it? Do you know anything about it?
Thx

cool, thanks again for the clarification...I clicked on a few of your links and read some of your posts in other threads and it helped me understand your perspective a bit more... I admire your perspective and dedication...

Sorry if i came across like a kak wad..

cheers
and
love

I've dealt with alot of leaf burn dealing with my confined space. And I just cut down two males GK, I babyed them for 2 months. What can you do, for two males out, I dropped in 5 female clones of my ladies. I will keep them much shorter this time. See how you flower on 16 I did on like day 40 and I've used 400w HPS all through. Been crazy to deal with effectively. I read a thread were they said 12/12 from seedling and I've been doing it in my garden. Not seedling, but clones. I have a WW dro CLone flowering started at 7" currently like 12" tall two weeks later. Thats what I want to do from now one and I can expect 2'6" or in that neighborhood, right?

i started flowering a week ago, and i have had explosive growth (from about 6" tall on day 16 too about 12" tall a week later) but i was wonderin when signs of sex start to show. i figured it already would but it seem to just be more vegetative growth.....if it keeps growin at this rate it will be at least 2 ft tall. Your books says take clones now, but shouldnt i wait till i know its female? ill post pics later on tonight

HI try... your growth sounds normal... You can take clones now.. just make sure you MARK which plant each clone came from... that way, if the plant is male, you don;t get "THOSE" male clones mixed with female clones... yes, it is a bit extra work.. but I personally like to disturb the plant as early as possible in the flowering stage....

MOst people will tell you NOT to clone at all during flowering... and EVEN I don;t think you should clone any SIGNIFICANT branches during flowering stage.. only lower branches that won;t produce significant BUDS.. especially with a fluorescent grow..

hpe this helps
