Nilly gj?

Dude the pistils (hairs) are still ALL WHITE. why are you flushing it that early? And flushing shouldn't cause leaf curling and burnt tips. This is something different. This bud has a PROBLEM.
So you were able to scope the trichomes ? It is already at 12 weeks... Yeah it is going to have leaf curl and burnt tips. I hammered it to see what it could take. It should have problems when you run a new strain it always will have surprises for you. It could also be an indication of excessive heat, extreme temperature fluctuation,excessive light or low humidity. Maybe a PH issue. Now that I have baseline I can tweak the feeding schedule.

This forum is about purchasing a light and somehow we are way off topic here. If you see an issue then provide constructive criticism and offer your observations and solutions. I am not going down this "rabbit hole" been there to many times before and when you get to the bottom you find a snake. Have a good day . Happy growing!!

Its cool whatever you use. The thing is some here need to do the "use" part, then report back. Im tired of expensive ass bullshit being pushed by twinks with zero grows. Grow the light a year then sing its praises. When you have guessing......Datasheets and diodes provide a baseline,

@ big smo its not nazism to ask what diodes and see 4 different answers lol :peace:
Im gonna laugh in 6 months when your incomplete grow reports suggest a weak ass light for top dollar, but what the fuck ever. Open Forum, lick me balls. Cant handle the truth, post in the year.
You are redic. Funny thing is, you are the exact & only person 98% responsible for me purchasing my Amare. Do you remember? Ya, you hated on me too after telling me to go w/ PAS lighting over RQE. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart-truly. Not being an Asshole. Welllll! The very best full PHOTOSYNTHETIC ACTION SPECTRUM LED LIGHT IS AMARE. You didn't like that hu because you recommended the COB white light vendors here, which seem great BTW, a hell of allot better then the RQE lights I was considering. Your telling me to google it was enough for me. So, I ventured to purchase the very best PAS light available w/ the best components. And YES, Also the most proven grows. I see tons of more success w/ Amares on threads then any other COB or white light new light out. I'm not going to get into this again. I've proved my point before.
I really do believe that you are here just to rile people up w/ your non-sense. Which is fine i guess. It's an open thread & if you starting up BS is what floats your boat that's fine too.
The newer folks should know though that you are here to be a little troubled troll. Who you work for I know not because every company you suggest only gets hurt by your words.
I'm sure you have tons of knowledge but it's hard to learn from a guy you just think is a Douche. Know what I'm saying.
Oh, BTW, Thank you sooooooo much for recommending the Amare light to me & enlightening me on Full PAS lighting for my plants. Best advise I've gotten here at RIU since I became a member.
You just don't want to see the results. Never even stopped by to see well over a pound under my SE-450 you helped me buy. N that's with mad neglect & a poor grow on my part. Fact: Amare growers have the most proven grows around from any new manufacturer. And almost every single owner is as happy as a pig in shit.
Do you live under a bridge?

Could you please post those sphere (ppf/w) results on the amare fixture(s)??????? thanks
I'm sure they'll be out soon enough. Still a fairly new comp.
Why does it matter though. You have the #'s & know what these components can do already.
Plus all the proven grows.
Hopefully they do use the sphere soon though so they can be legit as possible in the buss. World.

Wrong thread for it :p. If it's an auto I let it keep rolling, they have their own time clock and will start to let you know by their bottom fans when they start to yellow. Means it's pulling the rest of its energy out of all of that to try and stay going. Keep rocking it, I seen people go 100++ days. Or chop of you want but I would wait.

I posted the par specs above (at least i think that's what he wanted.) it was one my many questions victor answered. I told him I think a lot of this stuff would stop happening when he puts every thing up heh. But it's a business some things come before stuff like that.

I know I rather see a company have every thing posted to view. But every question I asked them they answered and showed proof so made my day.

What's the sphere btw?

It's a big device used to measure total light output.
There's a good video w/ the BML Spyder using it.
It legitamisizes all claims or specs. Allot of comp. use a similiar set-up but it's the older square instead of sphere which is the most accurate. I'm sure there's more to it then my explanation though.
Yeah, they should post this info. On Amare but on the other hand it leaves an open end for Victor to talk to each possible client & give the personal attention to each specific purchaser. Probobly why we all know him as such a good guy, we talk to him personally for our answers.
View attachment 3671486 Last I checked, my Amare was doing great even w/ all the neglect on my part.
I could post pictures & results of proud owners for days. Maybe his mom only lets him play on one site, lol! He miss-leads people w/ his BS.

Does anyone know if my mega-long response about Amare & the haters has been deleated? Think it was on the Amare Pricing thread but don't remember. If anyone has read that then they know what's up. If it was deleated that's messed up as it contained so much that many should read before taking into account anything the hating trolls say.

Yeah and you probably charge them an arm and a leg.... Eye Candy well I can make a brick of horse manure and paint it gold . Really looks good but it still horse s### inside. All done here..
w/e you have to tell yourself, might just be genetics (I don't know what you grow)

Notice I said GAVE because there is no charge.
I'm growing for 3 patients +myself...

I rosin extract my portion, but they're free to consume their nugs how they wish.
I'm only really growing for extraction, so my selection is for flavor+trich. content/potency.
The others I grow for don't complain either, and they're smoking the nugs.

Extract yields matter more to me than the weight of the bud.

i understand getting the specs matters but on the se450 not so much. It has 6 3070 cobs like many other lights. Lights that aren't being bashed. So my thought is the specs don't really matter to him because at a minimum they produce the same as other 6 cob units. Then add in the mono's which only increases these numbers. I am patiently waiting for my 3 se450's and honestly don't give 2 shits what anyone thinks about them.

I'm so thrilled with what I already know about them. I'm thrilled about my chats with sir Victor. I'm thrilled with the warranty. I am thrilled so much I have started promoting the shit out of them here on the east coast. Ftw peace

I think you misunderstood

The performance of the se 450 should be very similar to any other company selling 6 cob lights equipped with Cree 3070 LEDs. That's the minimum. Not to mention the additional monochromes. As for the demand in specs I don't follow the reasoning. Why ask what amares specs are and call them shit when the baseline is atleast as high as companies he is not putting down. Amare should blow any 6 cob light out of the water when it comes to any test.

Oh here we go again.... One who knows everything... Oh just in case you didn't see it here is a re post.

Here's a comparison on the price per watt.

AMARE SE450UVB: MSRP$1145 @450w = $2.54/w (actual ~500w) = $2.29/w
A51: MSRP$495 @110w = $4.50/w
Go Green: MSRP@$799 @300w = $2.66
PLC: MSRP$799 @300w = $266/w

Like I said take your ball and go home... I know PET and you tried that same BULLYING tactics on him. So I am a spammer because I like a product? Read the title of the journal. I have nothing against the DIY crowded I applaud them for the innovation. Many individuals don't have those skills to do such a thing, or have the time. Maybe they just want a product off the shelf that works. When I want a hamburger I can get it four ways... Go get a cow raise it then butcher it then grind up the meat for a burger. I could go to a butcher and by a piece of meat and grind it up and make a burger. I could go to the store and buy the ground meat and make a burger. Last but not least. I can drive up to the local hamburger joint and BUY me a burger just the way I want it.... I chose the latter. Oh and as for the best medicine I have to turn patients away because of the quality of medicine we produce.

you might want to ask amare for umols/joule as a gauge on efficiency. I suspect that with an abundant use of small monos and undisclosed drivers running at an unknown current, their efficiency is significantly lower than PLC.

Unfortunately, amare doesn't think publishing efficiency, ie umols/joule is important.

You are not a fool, I know this. I do think however you just like to get people going. That's fine & even funny at times. Just don't miss-lead new growers is all. I know you are smart. I've read your posts.
