Green Alternatives
I enjoyed reading Erik Biksa’s article, LEDs: Lighting for Hyper
Space Crops or Just Hype? The way I see it, we need incremental
stages of familiar comparable wattage LEDs to phase out or
to build a complete replacement for HID lighting in a way
that isn't so humbling to the hobby market. Surely this way in
the long term, the market could reduce initial costs to early
adapters, thus accelerating the market.
I believe we need watt for watt replacements for HID lighting
in the industrial green housing market to prove once and for all
that proper LED diodes yield more than HID while generating
less heat, therefore, justifying long term costs and adaptation.

the articles in the magazines are great.

Biodynamics Claptrap
The Biodynamics article on page 88 of February 09’ USA is
unintelligible claptrap, just like biodynamics is claptrap. We
need to make an effort to expose this nonsense for what it is.
Maybe an article by a real agriculture expert could be published,
addressing some of the garbage.
The author of the article is described on page 10 as having
an interest in bringing awareness to the injustice of municipal
water fluoridation. Back in the 1950s, nutcases c
