Help with using a phototron

Phototrons are worthless. I can't believe they sold those pieces of crap for over $600. I had one someone traded me for a bag of weed years ago. I stripped the lights out of it and used them for vegging plants. The rest of that piece of junk got busted up and tossed in the recycle bin. The only way anyone is getting a pound out of one of those things is if they're weighing wet weed including the leaves and stems.

I'm still using the lights to start vegetables pre-spring. The rest of that piece of junk has been in a landfill for over 10 years.

I rigged this up last winter. Works fine for starting tomatoes and peppers. Worthless for growing weed. The one I had was the older model but the newer one is still a worthless piece of junk.

You could easily pull an LB per bulb

You are probably right- if you can't follow simple instructions. I'm setting mine up again. Haven't used it in years, but the last time I did, I got MORE than a lb. out of 3 plants. This time, I'm going with the 6 plants that it recommends,and I guarantee I'll get more than 1 lb. In 3 months, also. So what's that stupid looking thing you're making?!? Oh, ok, I re-read. Useless for weed. You never owned a Phototron, and you're blowing smoke out your ass. Wanna compare crop yield on Dec. 31? Maybe we can make a little side bet....I just love it when ignorant internet trolls give an opinion on something they really know nothing about.

Lol I think it’s a size and light constraint. No way you’re pulling a LB out of that

I am right. Phototrons are garbage. It's too bad you got ripped of when you bought yours. It must be hard to admit it but you were swindled.

And I did have a Phototron. I traded a bag of weed for one years ago. I ripped the lights out of it and tossed the rest in the garbage where it belonged.

Calling me ignorant is laughable. You're the one that bought a Phototron and are on here claiming how great they are.

If anything you're the one trolling.

I can guarantee that I can pull much more weight with my cheap HID than you can with that Phototron garbage. My entire setup costs less than what you paid for that Phototron.

I really can't believe anyone is on this site raving about a Phototron and calling others ignorant. Too funny.

This cheap bastard gave me a Phototron still in the box in an attempt to escape paying me for work. Took one look and loaded back in the truck and took it to the transfer station/landfill. Put it where usable stuff is for the dumpster divers.

Underpowered lights. Room for one plant. What a waste of material.
 
I've had high success rate with them
