I've read about growers using the best cobs available "cxb3590" and ending up with mediocre harvest. For example there is a professional grower on youtube that has a 1480 watt cob system in which he only achieved 850 grams of dried bud. I heard the claim of extra trichomes and etc outweigh the cons which is baloney especially when you fork over a few thousand and end up with less than a gram per watt. Ive seen $50 250 watt hid system achieve 1.4+ grams per watt. So why should I or anyone invest over $800 or more for a system that could take up to 3 years to break even if heat isn't a factor. Another factor to consider is the depreciating value of those cobs. By the time you break even those same cobs you bought are now worth less than half for what you paid for them. Where are the advantages? Where are these outstanding grow reports/journals using cobs?, Ive seen them with other types of leds 1,3,5 watts but not cobs.
