It's a simple common grammatical error, you only pointed it out because he dissagreed with you, well.. he offered a different opinion
No, I pointed it out because it drives me nuts that grown men don't know basic grammar. I said that very clearly. Sorry.

But he asked, he was told. Viaspectra are shit. That is fact. That is not opinion. There's a reason they're so damned cheap. You would literally be FAR better off with a T5 fixture than you would those pieces of shit. The funny part is, you could get a good T5 fixture for about the same price and have a much better light.

But I get it. Since you bought it, it's the best thing ever. That's the way many people are until they actually try something decent.

I'm not under the impression it can get anywhere near a hps or a cob, anyone who does is kidding themselves.
It's a case of this is what I've got, let's see what can be done with it!
I'll say this, they're better than some of the cfl set ups you see some people with, you CAN get good yeipd with them, but you'll just have to be happy knowing that if you get 5oz with it then you would've got 10 with hps haha!

I agree. I have done the research and have chosen the Viparspectra LED's regardless. As well as countless others who seem to have very satisfactory results with "they're" lights

The bud in my pic was from a vipar 300w on it's own, I'm happy with that:) im now do8ng a plant I vegged much longer and trained to see what the lights limits are, then I'll have my own informed decision on how soon I need to upgrade (which I definitely will) or if this will do me for a couple small grows, depends where I take things!

I might add more if needed. Will not go HPS will go with Cree LED's. Already looking into creating our own LED's. Working on a friend that builds insane computers from scratch to build me a beast of a LED. Five ft long and strong enough for my 4x6. We will see what he comes up with

Buying a Viper is like buying a teenager a car for $1000. You know it ain't going to last long and they will want a better one, but at least they will use it to learn how to drive until they save up for a better car.
Buying a VIPAR not much different than flushing $100 down toilette ! Both yield crap !!

if you've already got the lights use them , get some experience, start a journal & branch out I put this plant under my cob on nov.29 & flipped Jan.13 at some point you'll probably upgrade the budding pic is from my last grow I have a friend running the 1200 vipar when he gets some bud sites I'll post some pics he is in a 4x4 tent I'm in a 3x3 my light is 340w. at the wall good luck on your growIMG_3901.JPG IMG_4417.JPG.

I’ll take a bud like that any day! I don’t give a shit what kind of light it is.
