There is always room for improvement (or not?)

[Lotusyde]

No matter how many times I have adjusted, rebuilt, and rearranged my grow areas and lights etc. I always seem to find room for improvement and seek to make it better than before. And I have done so 50+ times. One more light, two more fans, 4 more plants, I can adjust that here, and oh that works better there... etc etc etc

Anyone else feel like the progress/evolution of your grow has A.D.H.D.??

Oh absolutely! Throw on O.C.D.

Anyone who knows it all and never changes, doesn't know it all.

 

[furrysparkle]

Very true and yes I also continue to find improvements!!

I think it is part of our DNA!!! Next up for me...315 LEC!

I'll bite. "If you wait for perfection you will never arrive".

Lotusyde you make a very good point, and I think you characterize the experience of someone becoming an expert at what s/he is doing. It means always striving to put that hard-earned knowledge to work and make it better than the last time; it also means letting our creativity soar.

If I couldent keep trying to improve, I think I would become complacent and give it up,just my two cents.PEACE

I just started growing, and getting towards the end of my first grow, and I already changed things 50 times, :-()

 

[Lotusyde]

Fill me in on this 315

Wise quote indeed, do you remember who said it?

 

[Lotusyde]

Well said, and quite the encouragement. I never looked at it that way before. Thank you for the perspective

Welcome to the club sir. You have earned your patience badge. I'm right there with you. I built my led ballast from scratch and reconfigured it sooo many times for my first grow.

 

[Lotusyde]

I can't wait to see some more of your hard work!

 

[Lotusyde]

This quote has been a mantra of mine every time I've failed. Thanks for sharing

 

[Lotusyde]

I almost agree entirely, but after awhile you just gotta scratch the itch and go with what you've got. I dont count it really but i tried growing once when I was 13. It a miserable experience of painful lessons and zero rewards. I'm glad I kept improving from then to now

 

[Lotusyde]

This makes me think back. I used to have this somewhat ignorant saying, "tell me what you think then I'll you what I know". For someone never willing to learn, this is a dangerous statement, for those who have learned and are willing to teach others, I think it can be a positive thing. Sometimes paying for our own ignorance is the best way to learn and keep learning.

Green75 and luckyacres already have one and have been raving about them. I plan to get one after this grow. Sun System 315 LEC. Check it out online. I wasn't sure about heat until I saw one in local hydro store. It puts out about as much heat as my CFL's!!!
