As far as growing it's not wrong. Any technique in growing can be explained easily.
The thing is that most of the stuff out there that people talk about is just bunk, so honestly I don't trust any of it till I test it out myself. It's nice and all for people to go on and on about controlling the DIL but till they tell me how to do that with my one light it's useless. And I've noticed that when you try to nail these people down to actually give some real world advice it's not there.

Spurr, do you think that quantifying the starch test through the glucose as you've described would be practical in our usage in quickly finding the best of the cuttings we take? I'm not sure of all methods that can be used to quantify the test in a practical manor in terms of clone selection so if you could further explain?
I don't know that my methods are ideal, I only know that compared to different light schedules they give me more final total weight in a shorter time. There might be more efficient way but nobody in this thread has suggested any. I think Spurr is suggesting something like putting a filter over the lights or something like that but it sounds like he hasn't actually done it himself, so no real experience unless I missed it.
Fwiw: Light to a plant is like weights to a body builder. The more weight then the more muscle. Just makes sense doesn't it.
Your logic is flawed, plants need night every day to be the best they can be.Do plants need sleep? Yes and they'll get 12 hours of it every night in the flowering cycle.
Dear Spurr,
Your posts are long winded. I feel like I'm doing homework. I can't tell if ur speaking truth or BS cuz I keep dozing off in the middle of ur big-worded rant. Probably all true, but my desire to learn has died.
Sorry to b blunt, it's gone on for many pages
