Most Efficient LED Light

[Yodaweed]

I couldn't agree more. At least the guys selling lights/cobs/kits have an excuse for being here. I came to the conclusion that any mature and serious grower, even hobbyists, have no reason to come here anymore. The threads are full of the same horseshit bickering that runs 24/7 and goes absolutely nowhere. There are even a couple decent growers in this thread but their continual need to 'educate' or just simply argue with people completely negates any positive impact they have had on the RIU growing community. People don't come in here to share 'their' experience and offer help if they can, they come here to shit on other people and pretend that their thoughts and way of thinking actually mean more than other peoples. I come on here to learn or maybe steer someone in the right direction (if I can) that asks a question. It's really hard to enjoy reading through the threads though because they constantly get derailed every day by the same handful of asshats.

It's almost embarrassing. I would never recommend this site anymore and expose someone new to this BS.

I'm all for unregulated forums but as we can all see from experience, it has turned into a shit-show and completely devalued what could have been an excellent forum for learning and sharing everything a person needs to know about growing MJ. I really wish some people would stop and realize what they are doing, smarten the fuck up and let people learn from their mistakes. Growers can exaggerate a bit, sellers can too but we are all here for the greater good and we should treat each other as such.

Peace.

That looks like a very small surface area to mount on. Most people use http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186069

Since you're too stupid to figure it out I'll help you, but only this one time will I respond to your shit. I learned alot on these forums in the past few years but it was only when I started building DIY lights that I made an account so I could ask questions.

On another note Sherlock, it doesn't take any sane person more than 1 week to find out this forum is filled with complete asshats who have nothing better to do than talk shit on RIU for 20 hours a day. But yet I've been here for years watching this shit-show progressively get worse. Guess what, you're one of the asshats I speak of...but I'm sure you knew that already. Thanks for fucking this forum for everybody and good luck growing that shitty larf you call buds.

And to Olive Drab, I really have nothing to say to you guy. When you have a grow that will end up yielding more weight in dead fungus gnats than you will from your bud...well you're just on a level of your own and there's nothing to say really.

Don't waste your time with another stunning comeback, I said what I had to say and that's as far as I go regardless of what you think.

I'm also sick of people saying this and that is best. etc. Until you do separate grows based on various strains, various color temps, with/without blues, reds you're not really qualified to say what's best.
Anyway here is my veg using 30 x cxb3590 dimmed from 8watts each to 30w (250w-900w total for this!).
I know for a fact that "I" could never do this with a single 1k. Using LEDS spread out is unbelievable.

You flowering in that room too?

 

[goofy81]

Yea, vegging under dimmed 1k LED, flowing under 6k LED
Added: I actually has no choice but to start them with 250w because with 3500k they just weren't stretching enough.

True 100%. This is the only forum with this attitude. All it takes to see this is only one "good" thread... Many ppls here are so not friendly... Shame..

I like this forum section yes ppl are rude and will hit you, but only because we want the truth. If you cant handle that then move to your pony land.

It al starts when somebody start to claim stuff and when we ask how ?
Is that wrong NO.

Some people aren't here for the truth, only to troll. Is that wrong? YES

Growing is a learning experience.

24 years here and still learning

 

[sleepless_canuck]

Every thread I read this same ass hat is yapping off.

Does no one moderate these jerks?

What bothers you the most? The difference in opinions?

 

[sleepless_canuck]

No I enjoy differing opinions.

I read about 5 threads so far today and all 3 have the same 2 individuals that I guess know everything.

They are rude jerky and it is already turning me off of posting.

Lots of great info until they jump in.

For years and years and years and years one has to weed through different opinions, bad info, good info, people getting called out on bull shit, many other things. If your mind is already made up about a certain topic and you know who you want to listen to then pm the person/ persons. Or be helpful and start posting.

Do you feel better now?
You have actually touched on a real problem & I'm not sure how to solve it.
Many people come here to learn, but they often get scolded for asking questions that are common. "Look it up, ya lazy noob!"
The problem is, even if you can find threads that contain useful information, it's still necessary to wade through mountains bullshit for random nuggets of knowledge.
It takes a while...

 

[Nenno44]

I think it is because people ask their questions wrong. after reading on here for a lot of months i found it best to be pointed to the right source instead of asking for an answer

The "ignore" button is your friend. It will change your whole RIU experience for the better!

 

[Olive Drab Green]

You guys understand, though, that I'm not trying to be a know-it-all, right? Like, it usually starts out with me trying to help someone and some other aggressive and outdated fool like Yoda tries to make it seem like I have no idea what I'm talking about, when it's blatantly obvious that I do. If there is something I don't understand when it comes to theory and the results of putting it into practice, I have never been ashamed to admit that I don't know. And when I'm wrong, I have no problem admitting that, either. But when I'm trying to help a legitimate new jack lacking in confidence and someone condescends to me like I'm full of shit, you better believe I'm either going to show that they are the bullshitters, or if they decide to be a retarded nuisance (like Yoda) I block them.

I hope i'm not one of those rude people, i try not to name call and keep it informational and educational, we are all here to learn and share , sometimes it gets a bit heated.

Dude... the trouth? You just bashing random shit. Do you know the trouth you talk about? Or any?
Thing is we all believe the trouth to be different for one and other. So what do these people do? Bash a company/grower cause he believes his equip is the shit. Ppl are just rude.
