IF YOU HAD TO GUESS ... how much have you spent on your op?

What if you could use 1 light to do everything. Not one light fixture and two bulbs, but 1 light. And you could hold it in your hand?!?!?!!

Now take this info and go peep my journal at my plants and how they are stacked. take those littel christmas trees and stick them under a 1000 watt SP system, they will turn into 5 foot christmas tree's !!

dude these are really nice lights , probably MUCH better than hid . BUT ... fucking 2 grand!? WHAT THE HELL!? honestly , ill invest in this when i move in cali. I aint got 2 large to drop on a light right now. question. is it more energy efficient than other lights? cost less on the e bill?
Keep in mind the one I ordered is MUCH larger than the one you see being used here. oh and nice plants : ) + rep

Just updated my journal.
They are very very efficient compared to other lights, especially because you only need one for veg and flower both. No need for two lights being purchased and two lights consuming power. Then there is the heat factor, there is none. The lights are self cooled and other than a simple oscillating fan for a breeze you need no ventilation. No big blowers, no cool tubes, no pain in the ass ducting to deal with. So you save money there as well. No need for a grow tent unless your concerned with smell, and in that case you could just use a filter and blower hanging in the room, with no need to vent the air/heat elsewhere you just refresh it.

My thoughts exactly. Very fitting for this forum,

Touchet, who the fuck do you think you are? Tony Stark? Fucking Photo-plasma-cannon lights an' shit?! That shit is sweet. I didn't know such shit even existed! (and one more for good measure) Good shit.

thats pretty frickin incredible lol. i like everything about that and they actually sound like they might be worth the investment. but i would also like to point out that as long as your plants are indica or sativa without any ruderalis, when they flower is determined by the amount of uninterrupted darkness they recieve. This means that if you wanted to veg and flower at the same time , you would not be able to do it under one light because each section must be on its own time cycle. I wanna get one of these down the line though , for flower : ) . tight info man! backbreaking prices though. some companies take an arm and a leg for what they charge. if i bought this light , they would straight up be charging MY DICK. hopefully they will come down soon . : )

You likey huh?! The future I have been informed will be at my door June 21st. I'll have some 150w HPS lights and a few Feliz lights, blowers and what not available for cheap around then for some newbs. Maybe we'll just hold a raffle for newbs, "win a full grow room set up, complete with 1 Tangergreen seed" all products slightly used!!

you like the way homeboy is just walking around holding a light like that in his hand with out screaming.

These lights are the very reason I brought things inside. I needed to start "molding" plants to fit how the lights were going to work, well, light. SO for that you need total control over every aspect of the environment, simply can't do that outside. But now that I can bring the sun inside, well, mmuuuaaaaahhhhaaaahhaahhaahaha!!

I love the way you can tell exactly where the primary light and secondary light is, lol, shit is like a 10 ft wide laser beam, it amkes a perfect square on the wall at like 15 feet!

yeah , those lights are beast. I almost wish you hadnt showed me cause now i feel like my shit is outdated ... lol. Ill be purchasing one of those in the near future.

yeah homeboys hand isnt on fire at all. try doin that shit with an hps. lol.

You missed something, lol, split a room, like a bedroom per say in half with some framing, or 1/3 and 2/3 parts is better. Depending on method of grow you pick which part is for veg and which is for flower. Now put the light in the middle of the veg part and give it a slight tilt towards the flowering part. Feel me? When its nap time for the older ladies you simply close some tarps, night night. the rest of the area is still lit by one light. Also take into consideration that trich's form better under less intense light.

GAME ON

Yep... just when I thought I was gonna be good for a while with the digi ballast and all, here comes Touchet to rain on my parade and FORCE me to lie to my wife by buying more gear.

You can register at the site I gave, they have a $1000 version as well as a slightly different $7000 version to choose from. The guy growing in the vid is using a baby compared to these from chameleon

would you care to share how much you yielded from your first harvest? and if you feel the investment was worth it to you personally : )

hahaha , the thread has lost believers. nobody is posting their expensive ass grow ops anymore : /. that controls everything right? humidity ,temp , pumps? co2?

Click to expand...

yup it dose it all, Co2 with fuzz logic, it constantly monitors the level
Temp
Humidity
Light timer
Recycle timer for hydro
A/c
It has outlets that are called night, that have power to them all the time, for a heater or dehumidifier.
But the cool thing is it runs everything in the right order, like no Co2 while the fans or A/C is on.
I will post pics on the other thread of it all hooked up tonight.
It's seriously bad ass...JR

sigh... i'd have to say, seeds and nutes and failure all included... probably around a grand or so.. idk really, but that sounds about right. ... and i haven't even produced yet. keeps getting botched and bollozed up. this time things are looking better though, my failures were all years ago, living on the edge, not giving a fuck, impatient, i'm still the same, but at least i've got some patience now, and a decent grow-op. yeah, these fuckers eat cash like nothing, but it pays off in the end, right guys?? ......
