This is an old post but many things have changed. Most of this bit was a flame war that went nowhere. Mylar and white paint are not near specific terms. Mylar can be flat and yield the undesirable specular reflection or textured to yield diffuse reflection. White paint comes in many varieties...

Like many American conservatives you seem to feel ahhem...entitled to being seen as right. This is often reflected in the falshoohds and contorted arguments you make..and you do that a lot. Plus your use of GOPer formula prose is a bit tiring as well. Now..let us see. Americans did NOT live...

I think most of the pot farmers have gone a bit past thinking of light in Kelvin scales. Withe the advent of LEDs true spectrum, in nanometers, is now whats happening. True, the warm white CFLs have more red in them than the cool whites making the former a better flowering light and the latter...

Well if you look at the chart you will see that is exactly what he is saying.

I think the point is HPS, CFL and such emit some light that CANNOT be used by the plant. The chlorophylls in them do not use much of the white light spectrum so the generation of that light, and the associated heat in doing so, is a "waste". The theory in LED's is they emit a very narrow...

You know dude..you may not have caught the drift if this site but the others have. The tenor of your remarks is as consistent with the rollitup spirit as Biblical quotes in a pron movie. Before you barged in the man was getting the advice he sought, laying waste to your premise, and folks we...

Exactly. JB is in the same mess as you an I. It's the big boys that avoid taxes, pay big bucks to their CEO's and do nothing to advance the position of the average American. There are lies on both sides of this argument..class warfare or oligarchy. The truth is the middle class and the...

Guy..that is really not a way to handle this issue. Perhaps your team, the GOP has advanced an idea but that does not mean the rest of us have to be blinded by it. You may be a team player, ( probley the root cause of political faiulre in the USA) but there are folks that are not on your team...

Aside from the fact that article was very poorly written...there was nothing new there. I am surprised anyone would cite it.

Cancun is no problem. Just go to the local stores. They have 2700 K CFL's.

HPS is not mandatory..it is in fact a legacy thing. before efficient flourecent and LED lighting came on the scene the only options you had were the sun or HPS. That is not true today. Florescent lighting, T5 or CFL works great. And remember..it is all about lumens per watt. You say you are in...
