Not practical for just one plant IMO. You'd prolly get better results from a Bloom Box..at least they're designed to hold a few plants, perpetually (with no smell). It might be good for male isolation to collect pollen...pretty sure that what's most folks did with the old Phototron's. Best of luck in your endevours.

Does it do the trimming too?...lol
I cant wait for the day someone figures out a trimming machine that you can feed a whole plant and out comes trimmed and dried buds...like a wood chipper kinda.

Explain the success of beer stores,coffee shops or restaurants... Why buy it when you can brew it? Cannabis will be no different. People are lazy.when people see the costs they save growing it themselves..

The bloom boxes were brought into court during the allard trial and so called experts argued that they could solve patients problems and provide a safe way for people to produce their own.
Impossible for any small enclosure to provide enough meds for even the average script

'People are lazy' is a lazy way to try and justify the prediction that very few will grow their own. 'People are lazy', and yet more and more are growing their own food in the interests of knowing what's in what they're consuming (sound familiar?).
The fact of the matter is that thus far, private industry hasn't been able to innovate at scale. The 'free market' is nothing more than a state-sponsored market with ridiculous regulations that stifle innovation. After legalization, and hopefully sensible growing regulations the real 'industry' innovation will start.
Beer stores : Craft breweries are one thing, but it's not feasible for someone at home to product their own vodka, gin, etc. Everyone seems to be falling over themselves to shoehorn cannabis = alcohol, and one of the only reasons why is that it's an easy 'in' for legalization. That's no longer a concern, so this argument is going to start falling away, the sooner the better. In short, to grow cannabis, you put a seed in the ground, no matter what strain. Entirely different for alcohol.
Coffee Shops : This is an even worse comparison, coffee shops are about the social experience, and in that respect vapour lounges have been around for a long time, and have been very successful (until Wynne's anti-vapour lounge legislation). If you were to look at the numbers on total amount of coffee beans consumed at home vs people who buy starbucks, I don't think you'll find a very compelling argument on that front either.
Restaurants : Again, all about the social experience. Probably the worst comparison out of the three. People buy their source material, and create meals at home for the most part. Very few people can afford to eat out all the time.
In short, we've never seen a truly free market when it comes to cannabis, so predictions based on either the niche MMAR model or the restricted market of the MMPR are speculation at best.
you dont know anyone who is dying or do you understand that statement.

At only 4 feet tall, its about as useful as those stealth PC growboxes. Not made by someone who has ever grown Cannabis. And at $899 , youd be better off buying a 4X4 tent, 600w light and a fan and filter.
I think that set up wil serve 95% of peoples needs who are just getting started or looking to grow a few plants. At least they'd actually grow to maturation in there. What a scam. "But you can control it from your phone" they say. If that lazy feature is a deciding selling point for someone, they're too lazy to do most things in life
To label all people as lazy however is simply being dismissive and thinking obtusely

Ah, yeah. I'm certainly not an expert, but feel that there are people that want to grow one plant. Although I've posted this in the medical category, I'm well aware it's not really for us. More a weekend warrior...

I think this is a pretty cool little device, but they're not using good LEDs. Probably overly expensive too - interesting the way it's going though - grow tech. Also it doesn't look very organic looking at the bottles of nutrients.

I've helped more sick/dying people then you can imagine. From my experience these are the last people least likely to grow cannabis or wait 3 months for their first crop. Most of my patients were incapable of growing due to their illness. Tell these people to grow their own or go without. It shouldn't matter where you get your meds as long as your getting them. Do you tell the cancer patient lying in a hospital bed to grow their own? LP's are simply another access point for people who want to source meds from a legal source. It's all about personal choice, or convenience. I'm a firm believer that anyone should have the choice to obtain or consume as much cannabis in which ever way the deem appropriate PERIOD. There's no point shitting on a person for choosing a LP. Just because you are capable doesn't mean everbody is. I'm very experience in grow a persons large script, it's no cake walk by any means.

I spoke with them while watching this video. They're not using COBs because they're too bright. But I mentioned that if you run them at really low wattage they massively improve efficiency of the lights and might be not so bad. Anyway I still think it's a kind of cool little device. It's probably too expensive though. Didn't ask how much.

That's bang on, would these same people buy from an unknown source (cc/disp.)or a regulated one (LP?) being a long time grower and having the insight to see what goes on behind closed doors, I would never trust anything coming out of the grey market. That's just my personal choice. How about you?
