This type of 'open minded' approach to improvement is how success and innovation are found IMO.Conversations should go where they go, there's nothing wrong with things taking an interesting turn. :) ......I've thought about how close we're getting to the sun (or surpassing it), and we're at an interesting point in history......
Ok, so if we can already produce the light energy power of the sun, with all the right parts of the spectrum.......is there anything else the sun produces that we haven't yet artificially? Like, I know we get Vit D from the sun, I've never looked into how it gives it to us (not that plants need it, or don't, it's just an example)..Some things the sun produces we actually don't want.......at least for us....
In my other hobby there are standard test, but I often contest that we don't even know what to really test for.
Are both hobbies going strong, yup.
But if there is no room for improvement or innovation then we should be content.
I like to push the envelope in odd ways.
Some of my odd ways have become common practice in other areas.
OPEN MIND.
You didn't lose. I will probably never waste time or money on UV.Really I was just trying to reach @Harpua88 and I am failing miserably, so I'll take the defeat and hope to do better next time. I wish anyone that wants to dabble in UVB better success than me.
No one has even spoke of life span of true UV.
I think many will be surprised to see how short their true spectrum last.
There is tons of research that indicates 1 year if left running 24/7[ water treatment] down to 6 months if a regular on/off cycle occurs.
On/ off kills them and growers need to use it .
Not sure if they relate but UV is not for me.
^^THIS^^I still believe it adds something special. We don't understand everything about it. How do we know there's not some wavelength we can't measure or reaction that we haven't even fathomed? It's a great time for science and weed and for them to collide. I hope there's some cutting edge research coming our way.
Something special..
I love the sun.
