@Blue72: ahhh another new login eh? LOL this is getting ridiculous, just to answer a few of your questions no, no, yes, yes, no, ALOT of research, all of it, yes. I'm not going to argue with you I honestly have more important things to take care of (my "real" garden) so have fun talking to yourself through 17 different logins and trying to sell induction lights. peace.
LOL! Damn, you sure are a live one, aren't you. I enjoyed laughing through your post. Obviously you aren't educated in writing or English, or you would be able to tell we're different people. Before you just stop here and start replying...without finishing every single word I wrote, read the whole thing, k? I'm tired of typing, people not reading, and then they respond and talk crap about something I already explained. It's unnerving. Please don't be a sheeple.
Point is, I saw your post on my husband's screen. You couldn't be more wrong about this. It pissed me off enough to write on here. Ignorance is one of my biggest pet peeves. Education is where it's at. Why would you be against learning??
"So....do you plug for Fox Farms? I see you've posted about them quite a bit. Are you getting anything from it? Are they paying you to suggest their product? I mean, if you're going to assume or make opinions on something just on what someone posts, then hun...you should definitely look into what you're posting on other threads." (right back atcha!) ;)
So...you have NOT met anyone in person, you have NOT pm'd anyone, you may have gone as far as this thread to learn about this, but....I'm pretty darn sure from the ignorance displayed here in your posts, that you did not educate yourself on the topic of these particular lights. You can't even tell we're different people, how am I supposed to believe you can understand science?
Furthermore, did you see my husband's post? Someone copied and pasted his post from another forum, on their own. But....it seems you didn't even read what he wrote, you just decided to pick someone to reply to. I believe you picked me, because you THOUGHT I'd be an easier target. You thought wrong.
OK...so, just to put some "personality" on this board and to show you exactly the kind of person you're putting down.....here it goes. This man took his pet to the vet. He found out that he has fatty liver syndrome. He went and educated himself on this topic and came up with a meal to prepare for his cat to get better. (other than the constipation from not drinking enough water. It's been working!!) You see, this awesome person cares about everyone and everything. He is constantly researching. He has one of those photographic scientific reading minds. This man should have been a doctor, but he can't handle needles. He is HIGHLY intelligent. I'm not just saying this because he's my husband, I mean....that's why I married him. He knows what he's talking about. He learns things, he understands them completely, and it sticks with him. I wish I had his brain. Seriously. He's researched my medical issues and made me feel better too. Speaking of my medical issues, when he found out I had a blood clot, I caught him staying awake at night, watching me sleep. He's made lots of people's lives better with what he does. He cares so much about life, in general. My husband is very highly loved in this area, and gives so much to people that it upsets me sometimes. I don't feel he gets as much out of it as he gives. It IS his downfall. Imo, it doesn't pay off nearly as much as it should with how much he puts into it. I mean, he has to deal with suspecting people like you. So....it's really not shocking to see him get interested in these lights. They've done so much for his plants, and he's just happy about it....so he wants to share. They are very amazing. I'm even thinking they're great for this Pacific NW we live in and that whole "light depression" thing. All I know, is when I'm in there with him.....I feel happier under the lights too. It's great for more than just cannabis, he's had all his veggies from seeds start out under these lights. Shoot, the ones he started out with, weren't even Inda-Grow lights!!!! Can you believe it? Oh wait.....but you were assuming the whole time that he has been a salesperson for them. It's not possible. I can tell you first hand, my husband is not a "salesperson" for Inda-Grow, we're not making millions off of talking about them on a website, shit...if that were true, I wouldn't be busy on a damn forum like this, I'd be on some yacht or swimming in some nice pool. He LOVES his plants and loves to give them everything that is good for them. I mean...I'm about to call his grow room the "blue balls"(would put it in a better term for girls...but I figured I'd keep it a bit clean) room, he puts so much time and effort into these plants that I do....get a little jealous. He's not always in that room either, he's on that damn computer....researching...constantly, all about the plants. I love him for it at the same time, because I know that me being sick and my allergies to things like powder mildew, is what is driving him to do this. It's his want to help others with good, quality medication. It's not about growing it and selling it, hun. It's about growing the best and making people better. It's not a "money thing". I don't know how else to prove that to you. He's even gone to school to earn a degree in this. I don't think I've met another person that is this passionate about cannabis. No joke.
All in all, my husband is just extremely happy with his lights. I'm sorry if it offends anyone, he's very passionate in what he does. Oh and....it says "new farmer" because we're "new" to this forum. It doesn't mean that Spliff is really a "new farmer". His "new farmer" status on here /= new farmer status irl. Just want to make sure you understand that, since I noticed you made a comment about people being "new".
You think you could just move on and try to listen a bit? He doesn't bite. He will answer any questions you have about these lights, and I'm sure you could help him with other things. Just because you don't agree with the lights, doesn't mean you can't get along.... he's not going to hate you for not believing in them....he's extremely friendly, sometimes too friendly, imo. He's seriously just REALLY passionate about his gardening. I think you would have a lot in common, if you could just understand that he is only Spliff on this forum. Splifferous is his username for all forums that pertain to cannabis. Blue72 is mine. For the rest of these people, I don't know them....so I can't speak for them.
Oh...and I'm sorry if this is really long, it's just that I'm passionate about my husband...I hate to see him take fire for something he isn't doing. To watch him and see him get treated like this, it seriously gets under my skin...especially since so much of what you're assuming is crap. He's an honest person. He's an awesome person. I firmly believe that he has been so passionate about these lights and plants, that his cat got depressed and stopped eating. It's no fault of his own, and now he's observant of this, so it won't happen again. But....he made that sacrifice, at the time, to learn and help others. He LOVES people and he LOVES to help others heal.
In the state of Oregon, we can't "sell" meds, it's illegal for us to have dispensaries too. So...I hope you weren't suggesting that we sell cannabis illegally on this forum. We're not drug dealers. We would only be able to ask for a "donation to costs".....and that is still "teetering" on the edge of the law there. We are making no money off of this. It has cost my husband at LEAST $3k since he started this grow, a few months ago. We've made severe financial sacrifices. That's including getting two lights on donation. (not inda-gro lights) I can't work due to my medical issues too....but don't quite qualify for SSI yet. We're hurting horribly, the lights were expensive to get....but it saves on our monthly electric bill. We don't need to buy bulbs every grow either. We made the decision to use these lights because it works for us. Not to go selling to people. However, when people start out with a new product, that is how it gets out there....by people sharing their experiences. It's marketing....no matter how you look at it, but it's not advertising. Meaning....him sharing a product that sells itself and keeps him sharing his happiness....that's the "company's marketing", not his. If the product keeps a customer happy, why can't the customer share? This way of doing things has been around for quite some time. It's simple business. It can go either way, it just happens to be positive for Spliff and he wants to share it with the world. So please....stfu and give this man a bit of happiness and let him share it. It's not harming you. Unless, you're just being a Troll.
