Yes tenthirty - Like that.
Degree - Yes. Actually, they were very poor in most regards at encouraging us to think outside of some lines, but in reality, that is where it is at these days. I actually took my schooling and headed in to the field. Without giving away too much personal information, let me say that I spend a large amount of time and effort helping customers that use large amounts of energy reduce their consumption by thinking outside of some very rigid lines of thinking. This takes a lot of tedious trial and error and study of results. Most work is on existing equipment and there is substantial risk as these customers are operating and need to stay on-line.
However, my hobby is personal and very much medical. I used to have fairly good sized grows and tried all kinds of craziness. Now I am relegated to small areas. Therefore, I have found myself much more focussed on efficiency and I am careful not to cause myself too much trouble. I am really focussed on dialing in temp, humidity, CO2, strain selection (tough there are too many good ones!), stealth and yes lighting. Even when the desire to step outside of the box is strong, the millions of years of symbiosis between sunlight and plants, is hard to ignore. Where I step outside the box in that regard is trying to use new tech.
Feeling long winded and not wanting to overrun this thread, I will once again wish you all success and go back to playing with my CDMs.
