is there a way to 'dislike' a post??? hehWave point emailed me back and basically said the ultra growth is not being sold in the U.S. Market. He did not answer any of my questions either.
Anytime bro, I just object to the concept of "wasted" lumens as all visible light is involved in PUR (photosynthetically-USED-radiation) I know the PAR graphs make the yellow/green look insignificant, but if you have ANY KIND OF CANOPY AT ALL you will want them. see my earlier posts for why.Thank you for your suggestion, it just seems that there are a lot of wasted lumens in the 6500K bulb, so I am trying to figure out how to get away from wasting any of the light since the T5 puts out so little already.
Done!!!!!!Maybe if everyone emails wave point , we can create a demand for it amd maybe they will bring it to the U.S.
what is that?couldnnt you just order from the csrier overseas
Ok I didn't know if csrier was a typo or some place you knew about. I acfually googled it.well everyone i got good new today my tent is finaly in the eayafter waiting 2 weeks the kpeople finaly shipped it out today
so now i got to start my babies and hopefully theyall spriut i dont want to loose any as they are the onky seeds i got and i cant aford to buy more at this time
I'm starting to believe this myself. After reading the article from Ed Rosenthal about lumens being more important than wavelength. It just makes sense that plants would prefer bright light over dim wavelength. Energy is energy after all.Anytime bro, I just object to the concept of "wasted" lumens as all visible light is involved in PUR (photosynthetically-USED-radiation) I know the PAR graphs make the yellow/green look insignificant, but if you have ANY KIND OF CANOPY AT ALL you will want them. see my earlier posts for why.

Theres a video somewhere on you tube where ed rosenthall is speaking at a convention. He talks about uv light and spectrum and he even says hes not sure when to use uv and for how long and doesnt know much about spectrum and hes learning with working with nasa at university of maryland and he eveb said that if led. Ould produce green and amber spectrums that they would be the best light of all. Rosenthall is an old grower and activist. He cofounded high times with kyle kushman. He does have a lot of experience wuth growing. Some of what he says is more opinionated than factual. So take his articles with a grain of salt.I'm starting to believe this myself.

Im sure I could dig it up, but you should post their addy so we can all bombard them, Ill use 3 of my email accountsMaybe if everyone emails wave point , we can create a demand for it amd maybe they will bring it to the U.S.
I would think that its not because they dont want to sell in the US...Im sure I could dig it up, but you should post their addy so we can all bombard them, Ill use 3 of my email accounts
I found an article/record of US Patents being issued... May2011 wavepoint applied for and was granted a patent for their Ultra Growth bulb... so they have the US patent, maybe trademark issues in US? I just dont know why they wouldnt offer it here, it's not like shipping from overseas is prohibitively expensive (they ship rubber chickens here from china on ships) so its gotta be some restriction keeping them from selling em here, I dont see why they would voluntarily restrict their market/sales
I saw that article too. I dont think it has to do.with trademark. Trademark is basically ownership of a name of a product or business. There are 2 types of trademarks. State and federal. State- only good in that state. Federal- good through out the U.S. Those dont hold up in other countries. Then theres trade mark laws in other countries but they only hold up in those countries.I found an article/record of US Patents being issued...
