The BS just keeps getting piled higher and higher. First a guy with no experience is going to use brand new tech. and a new business owner is going to let him introduce his product to the world. Then he can't use the light for the whole grow and flower cycle, even though it is supposedly designed to do just that and is one of it's main selling features;supposedly. Then he, supposedly, disappears for awhile. Then he is going to go into business with the owner of the light company to build hoods for him; there would be no conflict of interest in reporting on these lights after knowing that now would there? There are so many holes in this story it's amazing. Anyone who believes any of this scam story is unbelievably naive and gullible. This is possibly the clumsiest presentation of a story and a product I've ever seen. The real shame of it is that there could possibly be some merit to this technology but I would never give any credence to the claims made from this story.
It is fun to follow along though because it's like watching a fiction mystery movie; you never know where or when the next boogie
man is going to pop up. Great fun, keep it up.
you really should take the time to read and comprehend what i have written and then read it again. Let me clarify a few things for you (I shouldn't have to waste my time to do this, but i'm getting a little sick of people not reading every word, and coming up with hairbrained crap to spout about just for the sake to bitch about something).
1. (does the numbering help?) We are not the first users of these lights by a long shot, there are several commercial growers using them (veggies along with cannabis). I was bold enough to offer to provide a real time grow journal. If the owner of the lights was not confident in his products, do you think he would want anything to do with this?
2. It was explained (a couple of times) that the first grow would be lopsided (since a grow was in progress under hid lights).
3. It was also explained that last week was the first full flower cycle pitting the hps against the induction lights with 2 blue dreams that are within an inch of each other. Since you did not read, we put the shorter plant under the induction light.
4. (hope the numbers are helping you to keep this straight). I am not going into business with anyone to build hoods. If you had read what i had written (a couple of times), then you would have educated yourself to the fact that my gf and I are partners in an existing cnc waterjet, powdercoating and fabrication facility. I have presented the owner of the lights with a quote to build hoods (since we are a fabrication facility, I saw an opportunity and i presented our talents. It has nothing to do with this grow, or the upcoming results.
5. There are pictures along with written words.
6. I'll post results and pictures when i am damn well good and ready to, If i have other crap to worry about like work, I'll deal with that first, and then when i have time, I'll come on here and take time out of my day to try to post honest reports, along with pictures. I promised a complete grow log, and i will deliver, but it is on my schedule when i decide to post. I have made a committment to the owner of the light company to provide complete grow results (delivered directly to him). I do not owe any of you anything and like i said, when i come on here to post, its at my convenience.
7. What part of "we invested $850 to be a guinea pig for new tech" do you not get? we have more at stake here with these 2 lights than any of you, so keep the bullshit to yourself.
8. There are new clones under the induction light in the veg room, these will be the first clone to harvest plants. This is the first time that i have typed this and please make a mental note of it (please read this again, so i don't have to give myself early arthritis by having to type it again).
9. If you had read what the owner of the lights had written, you would realize that they have been in business for a few years building industrial led and induction lights, and that the grow lights are an offshoot of an existing company.
10. (last one, I don't want you to have to take off your socks and use your toes). We more than welcome constructive criticism, If you have useful things to say, then by all means say it. But if you are just going to ramble on about things that you really do not know (such as not reading what i have written), then keep your mouth shut and sit back down until something usefull try's to come out of your mouth. Then hold your hand up and maybe someone will invite you to speak.
You people can take what you want from the pictures and reports. Most people here that i have encountered seem to be decent people that want to know more, for better or worse about how these lights perform , but its inevitable when you get a crowd this size, that there are going to be a couple of disadvantaged folks that keep jumping up out of the crowd trying to get attention just for looking like an idiot, and there are a couple of you that are doing a pretty amazing job at it.
And above all, take the time to read every last word (maybe a few times so you comprehend everything) until you bother to hit reply and decide to ramble about nothing important.
This only applies to a couple of you (its pretty obvious who)
To the rest of you, thank you for taking the time to read and thank you for being patient enough to go along for the ride.
