I don't have either so I guess I'm not suppose to be here. However, since I stopped for a read I just as well ask a question. This thread is not LED per se. The Title is LED and other lighting. What is other lighting:?:

Probably exactly what the forum is described as "Growing with LEDs / Inductive / Plasma etc."

Suck it? And I started some form of dispute with you?

If you feel like a moron and it upsets you then go stare at the mirror and yell at yourself.

You know, that is a neat grow space you have going on. A few suggestions. When I use round cfls I make a reflector. Most recently, those cheap aluminum turkey pans for like 2$ at the grocery store work wonders, buy the extra deep ones. Also if you come across some money, I would advise buying; 10w red leds, 10 watt drivers, and some heat sinks. Doping up a grow rooms red light content is the fastest way to ensure thicker harvest, especially in a all "Kalvin" lighting scenario.

Amaximus, I think he was doing a playful, "Suck it Trebek!" style 'suck it', not a "I'm going to rape your mouth" 'suck it'. He's just a grower man, relax.

idk if you meant to be an asshole, but you were the first view and first comment on this thread telling me how i shouldnt be posting here, even though it isnt only specified to led. and you saw my post. i said i had just bought this light and switched over today. you say i should get led even though i just bought my hps. idk that just irritated me and made me think of you as a lonely forum bully, and if you dont consider yourself one, dont even reply, just leave my thread.

Then why are you posting in the led forum?
^^^ Post #4 Not the first reply to you. I never told you not to post here, Not once. I asked why you were posting here after you said you had no interest in led's. "suck it"

Probably exactly what the forum is described as "Growing with LEDs / Inductive / Plasma etc."
^^^ Post #10 directed @ george xxx - IE; answering his question. Not directed to you at all. he made the same mistake as you so I guess you feel like defending him against my "non attack"? Again, "suck it"

^^^ Those my ignorant friend were the extent of ALL my replies to your thread.

I did not tell you not to post here.
I did not tell you to buy led.

And i will reply to whatever fucking thread I want. Especially when I'm being attacked by some fucking fool that is confused.

Re-read this thread. Figure out how to follow a conversation and what quotes mean and either apologize or shut the fuck up.
