We're not talking about corvettes ok where talking a bout having good medicine and be able to produce it at cost efficient way and still yeilding the maximum. So no your analogies make no sense.

Also testicles answer is to just turn up the heat?? Thats not much efficiency.
bro we were discussing technology vs the mindless regurgitation of dogma.
my analogy was on point.

By "keep the heater cranken" I was referring to the FACT that hid generates more heat thaN PAR. Maybe heat is useful for some growers but photons make flowers. LED engines make more photons more efficiently.

Its cool to have an opinion but expect feedback that refutes your mistaken beliefs.

I got a complete 400w kit for under $150 with dimmable ballast, reflector, both MH and HPS bulbs, pulleys, and timer. Is there anything comparable in LED? ~50,000 lumens

Our electricity here in WA is also about 8 cents per kilowatt hour
Sorry dude I hit 1.04 gpw with 372 watts in my 4x4 tent and 1.08 gpw in my 4x8 tent 930 watts totaled 2.91lbs 1302 watts.

dude are you seriously trying to fuck up his grow? lets see some pics. These pics were taken 9-8-2015 only 4 plants. 1 Blue Kripple and 3 HSO Blue Dream in a 4x4 tent only running 372 watts which I can turn them up to 840 watts it's 2 panels 420-423 watts each tested with a kill a watt meter. I was working so I couldn't drop pics in here to make the HPS guys shut the fuck up. I've used hps commercially. Saturday will be day 1 of week 7 of flower.

yes sir and it's about the same as yours but I don't know what you are using so I can't say. I'm using CXB3590 72v with the HLG-185H-C700A running at 350ma

The only thing wrong with those pics is the Heineken bottle. Definitely needs a microbrew upgrade!

Your 'speculations' betray your troll status. Airy buds? That's week seven, fool! Da fuk, you even grow?

So where is your bud pics? So you even know what week they are in? Do you know how long I should flower for? No pics to show? That means you sir are full of shit. Why is it that when I'm right people assume the worst but can't produce pics of proof of what they can do. You aren't the first and won't certainly be last to hate on the truth. You sir have been Anthony Johnsoned.

Question for you; I'm in big tub RDWC. I ran EC 1.7 under HPS and I'm running EC 2.0 under 860W CDM. What's your recommendation as a starting point for growing under CXB3590 @3500Kelvin?
What size area and will you be using AC?So I can answer your question properly
