I would definitely be interested in a few 660's when I got some money together. If you're going to start growing, might as well do it the best you can.

I'm going to ask this in a couple areas: What is best nm mix for cloning? Or asked another way- to develop roots?

Hi everyone I olnly posted a couple of times many pages ago but am in the process of putting my system together. I have been searching for a 660nm tube as well. Well I happened to meet the VP for a professional video audio lighting supply company at work today. They just happen to have a custom lighting manufacturing division, and he was down right excited when I explained the T5 growing to him. I should have some sort of information from him this week with minimums??? and pricing. The big guys buy from his company and they are legit. TV the movie studios etc. Once I get the information I will let everyone know. It might even come to be a product line for them, so there might be no minimum order for us.

Damn, everybody is making shit happen around here. Apparently I picked the right forum for learning how to grow, At this rate, ROI users are going to single-handedly change the T5 grow lamp market.

Learned a valuable lesson about LST today... Romulan is not as sturdy as GDP, the stem can break accordingly. In other news, got 5 new Romulan's clone-ifying. All the new lighting isn't due until tuesday though. Life is cruel. :(

It completely snapped clean off. Didn't even bother, just cut it into some clones. Due to a series of issues out of my control, I've been vegging these under waaaayyyyy too little light, so I dont have high hopes for this one anyways. Maybe the chance to grow back under better light will help. Either way, I get more practice cloning. :)

If the 3 Alaskan Thunderfuck cuttings in the unrinsed Dr. pepper cans are any indication; I can root twice as fast in a can as the 45-spot Botanicare Aero-cloner I got. Or maybe I just got lucky.
