then use words, and reasoning.

Otherwise you look like everybody else on the forum that has an opinion and no evidence to back it up. That's as far from helping as you can be.

You might see all the negatives of a product when the buyer sees all the pros that fit their need. HID's are "antique" technology too, in case you had not heard. But you're ok with that, as long as the crowd is on your side.

I have a 2' x 4' cabinet that I use induction and T5 HO in. I've got 4 blueberry skunks mainlined to 8 at day 27 with 12" to 16" colas that will be solid very dense and frosty buds.I take pics on Mondays every week and can post some if anybody doesn't believe induction can grow some great plants.

The IGROW guys seem to be real sleazebags,they just got caught posting pics on facebook of a green spirit farms grow with induction lights claiming they were igrow lights but you could clearly see from the pics they were Indagro lights.Green Spirit Farms was the one that called them on it and the pics are gone now but I saw them before they were taken down.Here are 4 blueberry skunks of mine mainlined to 8 at day 28 under 360 watts induction and 216 watts of T5 HO 630 and 660.

I did. I use cmh as my primary lighting and has an outstanding spectrum as well as intense levels that reach pass the first few inches. I also employ t5 ho' so for UVB and spectral enhancement. I also use mv UVB lamps. The same limiting factors of fluoros with electrodes are still present and not overcome by the rf electrodes design nor the increased power. They are much less efficient at light production than hid and the only thing they do heat wise is spread it out rather than it being so concentrated as in hid but being less efficient they actually produce more heat which is much harder to eliminate as it is not practical to duct it out. So let's see less light produced per watt than hid, inferior spectrum to cmh hid, more heat generated but spread out more, inferior yields when compared to hid and still requires cooling of the grow area. So the benefits of using induction over hid are what? And please don't come with its cheaper cause they last so long as my bulbs last 2years at $40 a piece so still less than induction which hasnt even been in grow rooms long enough to know their longevity. Anything you need me to expand upon?

Oh they can grow good plants and your plants look nice.
These are mine. 4 c99. 6weeks flower. Cmh, Hps, T5ho, UVB mv lamps. 1740 watts total draw from 13 sources or lamps

To be fair here are the 4 c99's at 4 weeks flower

Nope.

You have (some) valid points, but we will never really agree, and you argued your points in a clear way... It's a forum, the point is to share information, now we're just BS'ing in somebody's thread about opinions.

Facts not opinions backed with photographed results. But happy growing to you.
