Isnt that what big perm was doing?
Not even sure if he's still here after stopping his advertising though

Yeah I don't visit that other forum just thought everyone needed a little reminder that this was intended as a purely spectrum side by side so white light won vs rgb not really hlgvshgl.

GJ Hybridway2 for seeing through, nice grow.
One grow is just an anecdote, but HLG wins by an absolute landslide in PR and respectability area.
Interesting thread. Of course people don't want lights from individuals who act so scummy. That aside, in this thread you find a lot of pent-up anger from years of bullshit, lies and outlandish claims about Purple leds. After all this talk about a 'divine' spectrum, the plant doesn't really reflect it (unsurprisingly)
. Luckily for Cammie, another sucker is born every minute.

I only respond to you because every post you make is false.
Did you miss the part where HLG received "to do capability" double the ppfd all through flower???
Admittedly had a tough time veggin under Trinity but am about to lay more veg under it soon with hopes of doing better.
There will not be another side by side using HydroGrow. I have seen all i need to see.
Yes, there will be more info. Presented.
Might be a day or 2 as i have a busy wknd.
More Trinity action to come.
Thank you HLG & HGL for making this possible.

I can see where you might have come to this conclusion and I agree that white light does produce great results, the question is which white light the is best or most versatile spectrum for growing, maybe several types white light overlapping would enhance these bands of light and provide more efficiency than one on its own? Maybe I'm overlooking the nanotechnology that is built into each diode, is it possible that white light has nano rgb like technology built into the individual diodes in order to produce white light?
Also with what we know about spectrum wavelengths, we should begin to realize that one fixture should not hold all of the diodes in one fixed height mounted to a single panel, red light travels in longer wavelengths, where as violet-blue light travels in more rapidly and shorter wavelengths than other light. The leaves of a plant can only handle so much energy at one time, by mounting all these diodes to one board we are providing the plant with imbalanced over saturation of light on some ends of the spectrum, while under saturation is occurring on the other end.
We cannot bend around the what the science behind this matter is indicating, and as an example look at HGL for instance, they have attempted to mount RBG to one board and have added less of certain diodes in order to achieve a similar result as having some of the lights further distance , while others are kept closer, but we cannot bend around science, a light sources spectrum wavelength doesn't change just because you added less diodes, the leaves are still receiving spectral interference of photon absorbsion because it is dealing with radiation from the other diodes because the wavelengths they are producing is overwhelming what the cells of the plant are able to handle, and therefore minor shock is being endured by the plant for the duration of the grow, and full spectrum optimization is not reached.
Wavelengths of light deserve our respect and understanding in order to utilise them appropriately, Red light travels at a slower vibration that is less radioactive than Blue light, therefore Blue light needs to be spaced further away from the plant, while Red diodes can be kept closer, you see the very best way to utilise RBG light is to run at different distances and control the wattage to individual color diodes separately in order to dim down some of the intensity while others can be ran at higher wattage due to producing less radioactive light (That is unless enough space is provided for each light source, then a dimmer may not be necessary).
When we combine this knowledge to our other understandings of what the plant needs during its life phases, in regards to spectrum, this can really benefit our ability to grow larger and healthier plants, because we are paying attention to the necessities of the plants needs at a cellular level, not just with soil, nutrients, and other elements, but with the lights we use and the way they are utilized as well.
Cheers.

Well done sticking it out until the end, this has been a constant shit show and i think many growers would have quit updating these threads long ago just to avoid dealing with the BS, i applaud you for staying the course throughout.
Now that the grow is complete, have you mentioned which light/spectrum you prefer between the 2? HGL made some pretty big claims back when this all started, do you feel the HGL lights lived up to any of the owners hype?
I look forward to the amare vs HLG showdown. Seems only fitting we have the 2 big guns fight it out.
Best of luck with everything moving forward.

I have every spectrum hlg offers,in my flower room(2700k,3000k,3500k4000k).I’ve also incorporated some 660nm in 4ft t5 leds .. as well as far red when the lights go out..I have found that the 4000k consistently gives me the best results as far as quality and yields,the plants use more water as well.
What is false? You said multiple times it's a spectrum side by side that's why you turned the lights down on the hlg side to match ppfd. you saying you were lying when you said that before?

I wonder if scammy will stop advertising her lights as "undefeated"?
Isn't that what started all this?

If he turned down the HLG lights to attempt to make it "fair" then the HLG won by a landslide.

I just added the reds a couple of weeks ago,I got the 600w diy kit in 4000k and built a frame,prime real-estate under them.

no idea, didnt know he turned them down till just now.
im still waiting on what he thinks is a long veg to help me understand something he said.....Is it 1 month, 2 months 3 months 6 months? Its all relevant to the individual and environment. Im sure if u asked a group of people what is a long veg to them u would have a range of answers.

Im not sure
what veg has to do with any of this

Why are you adding red to the 4000K if you find it gives the best results (assuming that adding red light will decrease the color temperature)? Just curious. if you have some more comments on the differences we all would be interested I think.
