Gotcha. What could honestly go wrong if you dont have one though? uh oh light burn *lowers intensity* ...and scene.
Gotcha. What could honestly go wrong if you dont have one though? uh oh light burn *lowers intensity* ...and scene.OOOO Bull Shit!!! It takes years to master reading plants and knowing ones lights and what they can do and how to use them. And as fast as tech changes I will take all the help I can buy, beg or borrow. Good mechanics use good tools and all the tools they have at there disposal. I would have given my left nut to have this meter in 1975 when I started.
I wasn't being rude. Good tools cost money. You going to build a engine with a china pos torque wrench and expect to have a good engine build. Or use your arm meter to torque those main and rod bearings down.Don't be rude @Blastfact he was giving you all a compliment. If there was a cheaper meter i'd buy it. I just don't think there is.
I think his point is, home growers don’t have to have fancy pricy equipment like commercial grows do have, and to still be able to grow some fuckin dankGotcha If Aqua says I dont need it then I trust him
True weed so cheap in my area that's why spending $500 is crazy . Weed got cheap right when I went into growing horrible timing lmao. 70$ a zipI think his point is, home growers don’t have to have fancy pricy equipment like commercial grows do have, and to still be able to grow some fuckin dank
But
Obviously meters are fucking awesome, and without knowing the science, and having proper tools to measure the variables, and if you have no experience at all, and are just reading and plug and playing numbers then yea meters are godsend.
Is it a good 70$ a zip though? Like idkTrue weed so cheap in my area that's why spending $500 is crazy . Weed got cheap right when I went into growing horrible timing lmao. 70$ a zip
Yeah it's perfect for my preferenceIs it a good 70$ a zip though? Like idk
20-25%thc at least, atleast green and not dark nor over dried-does it crumble apart/breaks apart/dust easily or does it stickily pull apart, has a smell, And taste good?
Well there ya go, that’s not a bad price.Yeah it's perfect for my preference
As he said the number on the meter or phone app is a point of reference. Learn to read the leaves and note the numbers on the app when the leaves look their happiest. You can use that number in the future as a reference assuming you are using the same app and phone. The sweet spot will change from grow to grow but you will be closer to it each grow.Gotcha If Aqua says I dont need it then I trust him
Sweet always love seeingYeah it's perfect for my preference
Edit: found a bagged seed a few months ago in one of the strains I really liked got my ass hyped to see if it's female/a good pheno

I agree with Aqua manThe leaves on your plant(s) will tell you what your plant(s) need and how much light they need. I think a lot of unnecessary equipment purchasers confuse good growing techniques with owning a lot of bull shit that they figure will fix their problems, but they really don't, they give them false hopes. I grow many different genetics indoors over time and I can say for certainty that there are to many factors involved to depend on some given number. I have even found that following feeding charts by some nutrient manufactures to be way off on some genetics, but hey they want to sell more and if you are gullible to believe that nutrient mixes work equally on all plants, then you will have much to learn. Just look at your plants and pay attention to what they are showing you
It's like the most beautiful leaves i've ever seen too. Like they're perfect.Sweet always love seeing
Like a box of chocolates…..
We can agree to disagree I guessOOOO Bull Shit!!! It takes years to master reading plants and knowing ones lights and what they can do and how to use them.

Only its like taking torque specs for a pinto and applying them to a lambo cause each plant and grow room has different requirementsI wasn't being rude. Good tools cost money.

Nobody has ever said grows don't differ, conditions don't differ, but to preach a 2 to 5 year skill with growers not understanding there lights. Heck some of them can't figure out how to water. Yeah know when I started the postmaster would throw away your hightimes. There was no net,,, no books easy to get your hands on. There were a few groups around the country and a few mail groups and those names and addresses changed all the time,,, the postmaster once again. To get any help from a master grower was by invitation only. You HAD to be vetted! And nobody has ever said a meter is necessary! Heck when I started we didn't have ph meters. People were using fish tank and swimming pool reagents/kits if they even believed in ph. And those test kits are wildly inaccurate. I remember getting my first ph and tds meter. Cost a $1k for the pair. And I back doored them through a boiler supply house. I worked a third job to buy that pair and saved like a wild man for a year. We learned to grow for the most part outdoor and ran a awful risk of getting busted. And a so so light back then cost as much as a top tier light cost now and was not near as good and more times then not your were buying out of Europe and adapting. I'm all for the tech and skillset. Tech has always cost and there is no true replacement for good tools. And I for one will not go backwards concerning the tech and it's use. I'm the 61 year old cat thats had the Hemi Cuda's and Chargers. I'd much rather have a Focus RS now days. :)Only its like taking torque specs for a pinto and applying them to a lambo cause each plant and grow room has different requirements
I think its quite simple really. You can easily see the upper most leaves go from flat to a V shape. So you start low and increase the intensity until you see them go from flat to just a slight V as this is the first sign of light stress.Nobody has ever said grows don't differ, conditions don't differ, but to preach a 2 to 5 year skill with growers not understanding there lights.
