    There's a lot of passion involved! :mrgreen: Reading the grow thread is a more soothing experience ;)

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    Gavita will market their light only in Europe as they are the European distributor for Luxim in the horticultural market. There are other suppliers as well, such as Chameleon Grow Systems (they seem to have just boxed the light with some leds) but they will start delivering their products March...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    Coming week I'll publish a picture with the spectrum both lights emit. You all know the nice graphs on the HPS lamps with PAR light. But what you don't see is the IR light (conveniently cut off). Well I can tell you it is extremely high for the HPS and very low in the LEP. It does get hot (deep)...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    About the heat: Unfortunately we are not yet geting the heat we want :mrgreen:. Instead of 2,5 degrees the temperature rises about 4 degrees in an 80 cm tent. Still no heat problem at all. On contrary, we are thinking about using IR leds to heat things up a bit. Because of the distance of the...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    Anyone visiting the Hightimes Cannabis Cup next week in Amsterdam: I will be showing the prototype (not the improvised reflector casing :D) of the lamp on Wednesday during THSeeds presentation by Adam. Bring your sunglasses!

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    yesterday I have seen the Cannalytics print and yes, we have THCV :). THC contents are very high, some cbc/cbg and some cryptics. THCV explains the flashy intense high.

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    This is not a commercial setup - it is a test installation. The final model will be very compact, but that design I'm not at liberty to share yet in this stage of development, as it can still move from that. But it will be compact, air cooled of course but not forced air cooled with a glass...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    hi guys, Just back from Spain (Cannabis Expo Madrid). I assume you all can find Sannies topic so I don't have to talk about that anymore. KJ Products had a small plasma light in their booth. It was very easy to explain to the Spanish: Question: If you had a choice, growing indoor or outdoor...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    @yougrowboy: No, I don't see it as a 400 watt replacement at the moment. I would see it as a 250 watt replacement at most. Bigger and the newer lights should have a better efficacy because there is less overhead from the driver and more light output per watt. It's not like the LED guys that...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    To start with the last: They shouldn't be there anyway ;). But the argument I made was that growers will change their bulbs way before the end of life, so I don't believe frequency shift will be a problem, not a big enough problem to justify 5-10% light loss (in ideal circumstances). Now can...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    Here's an interesting one for you. When the light starts up changing from up from UV trough blue to adding more red to get a full spectrum as the plasma warms up (attached). I'm sure you have read about the research about UVC fungus control. It might well be that this is a little extra you...

    sorry I missed that.. He'll be back soon, we won't keep him hostage ;)

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    I have no problems just talking about the product. I seldom get emotional about it but I just don't like discussions without common shared data. So all I have to go on is my own data. It's not to rattle your bones, we have a difference in opinion and approach to the development, the technology...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    Reading back your posts I think I once more need to stress the fact that I do not work for Gavita. I am coordinating this test for our dutch and international forum, wietforum and opengrow. I am not going into personal battles, I am just discussing the product and how we think it can be used...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    Are you replying and quoting yourself now Plasmargon? :confused:To be perfectly honest, I did not steal any ideas of you, I think we gave you more inspiration throughout the test process. Listen, you are the US distributor and Gavita is the European distributor right? So what is your problem...

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    I took Ed Rosenthal to Sannie this afternoon. He was impressed with the light and the results. He is all for UVB and he agrees that the intense trichome development can be explained by that. He recommended increasing the temperature a bit to 26 degrees.

    Plasma is the Future of growing!

    First of all, imho that is not respectful. I am dealing with pain patients that are at the top (or actually a bit over the top) of the maximum dose of morphine they can have per day. The cannabis not only lowers the dosage a bit but makes them cope with everyday life. From a 400 watt grow in...
