So you think the plant can photosynthesize, grow and prosper without any input from the light source? That's not how plants grow. Were you possibly homeschooled?

Read up about DLI(daily light integral) instead of following bro science.

He left school at 15, and self-educated at that point, which (sorry to burst your bubble) is a form of homeschooling. Never said I was an Einstein. I went to public school myself, but I know quite a bit about the various types of homeschooling, which range from very structured at home learning, to what is commonly known as an "unschooling" approach. Some people even go with a "radical unschooling" approach. There was a pretty good episode on "Wife Swap" which shows the merits of that approach. Here's part of the story: https://daynamartin.com/press/wife-swap/

@PJ Diaz ... I went to Private School in the Middle East back in the early 80's. I really don't know if I learned shit other than educating myself on different cultures. But!. I think the most important thing is to experiment yourself on your hobby/living. I didn't know shit about indoor growing, but i experimented with this and that, had failures, had success. I think the most important thing is to document your findings on what you did. ..repeat that, and try something different to improve it, or make it more efficient, even if it fails. Nobody is a "Master Grower"..we all do things differently in different environments. Nobody can really say "this is better to do" unless they have the same setup as you. It'a a crapshoot. Especially if you're dealing with particular phenos......then you're on your own.

Personally I think there are merits in both home/self-schooling as well as formal education. I've self-taught myself a lot of things, in fact I have no formal education at all in my current profession, and I hold a hold a fairly high level position in my skilled-trade, employed by a higher education institution. I do also hold a degree outside of my profession, and have learned many valuable things through formal education. The one thing that I have realized is that learning is much more robust when people want to learn, rather than when they are forced to learn in order to pass a class to acquire credits. I've taught myself a lot about horticulture, which they haven't taught in any of my College Horticulture classes, and I've also learned many things in class that I likely wouldn't learn on my own. The kids that I know who are home schooled are very bright and generally independent thinkers who haven't been demoralized by the indoctrination system we know as "school". They seem to follow their passions and thereby achieve greatness in the paths they choose to follow. The idea that home schooled kids are somehow less smart is just ridiculous.
