First A51 wasn't all that tried and true just a year ago. In November 2013 Jeff wanted me to do a grow on another grow site using an all-white panel
It would be obvious to anyone who understood that 2 + 2 = 4 that the SPYDR 600 using Osram 3w diodes (with my chosen spectrums) should work WELL.
Plus , Bricksquad, another RIU grower is now on his second flowering + mine, which to date is far from shabby, so, far from unproven. BUT, instead of embracing BML as another quality choice, the jealous jackals resigned themselves to criticize, even when they can see from my pics that they are wrong, they continue
But those who continue to promote A 51 and Apache are not called out as 'shameless pitchmen'
Double standard?
Why do I keep doing this? Why? Why?.......................................Fuckin someone hit me with a rock!
No double standard, you're a shill. You don't make any other suggestions like say GG or Bad Kharma do, even though we clearly know who their favorites are. You just pop into peoples threads, suggest a product you still don't know shit about, no mention of full disclosure and then ask people to stop by your thread which is all a flat out fucking sales pitch IMO. There's a way to demo panels + products (See GG and PSU), and a way to sell them. You're a fuckin' salesman and have a completely biased view of what you're doing. And that's not even the worst part.
Also adding additional cooling to your panel does not increase PAR silly, it maintains it, (and technically it decreases the panels efficiency). If it actually increases PAR then it was a poorly designed POS panel. Period. And Borrow My Lights doesn't use 100% OSRAM LEDs in all diodes/configuration since OSRAM doesn't make all the spectrums/Kelvins that Bacon Mayo + Lettuce offers. There are mystery diodes involved in their panels sonny Jim. And that's from Barely Makin Lumens website btw, ya may want to read that part carefully. These are just a sample of the lies and ignorant statements, (genetic purity! WTF dude
), that you use to sell yourself as some kind of authority on LEDs and LED growing that make me wonder how anyone would take your advice. In other words, stop trying to sell yourself and STFU+G.
Now go back and read it again PetFlora because it seems you have some kind of reading comprehension disability. Maybe ya want to take that weed out of your mouth once in a while sonny Jim.
And don't give back that panel! Seriously! Don't you dare give it back. Keep taking pictures but don't post them till they say you can have it.
And don't compare Buy My Lights to Illumitex everyone. Completely different ways of using tech. Illumitex is not without it's faults but it's tech is astounding. They make their own from die to panel something Bustas Makin' Lumens doesn't do. Doesn't mean their panels are better than Bad Monkey Love's panel, but they are on a completely different plane. It's like comparing Apples and Starbursts**.
** Pet the Apples would be the Illumitex and the Starburst are Bitchy Matronly Lady's panels. In other words an attempt to copy a superior product. Now go back and read that again.
