Whats your favorite MH/HPS brand?
Comments (5)I have a dimmable ballast, but Im not using the dimming options. Does that still shorten the life? I ended up buying a digilux bulb. I did look at hortilux, and they were definitely expensive. All I could find with Ushio were conversion bulbs for HPS ballasts, or something like that. I didnt know if they would work with mine, which is an ipower ballast. After 7 days with the new bulb, Im impressed by it. Very bright, great spectrum, and the plants are responding very well to it....See MoreFavorite brand name spaghetti?

Comments (7)I'll be the first and probably not ht last to suggest you consider a Blue Star range instead of a Jenn Air. Google Gardenweb Appliances and Blue Star to see what people have to say about this range. Do the same for any other brand of appliances you are considering. The posters on this board share a wealth of information here. If I were looking for a new suite of appliances I would consider Miele or Bosch for the D/W (I have Miele and am very pleased.) When you say micro/oven combo, if you mean a speed oven, I would go with GE Advantium or Miele (I don't have this appliance- many people here do and have lots of good things to say about them). I am a big Miele refrigerator fan, though I am not sure they make a French door. Thermador and SZ make that configuration. I think you could save some money and get the Thermador on that purchase, people seem to be very happy with them. Also, don't forget you will need an extractor hood and MUA for your range. I hope you enjoy the process of planning your new kitchen. It is an exciting project....See MoreHealthy Decisions
Comments (3)Sure, you can do all the right things and age into illness. But you can enjoy yourself and still bolster the odds that you will be well. First of all, those countries that do better have an inherited culture that endows the population with some sense of what a good life is. I'd say that includes traditions and values that most subscribe to, . Traditions that care about neighbours, and, as far as I know, better nutrition. this is not black and white. Next, those countries have better health care. It's important to be able to go to the doctor without counting your pennies. Those Doctor visits offer preventive care. An emergency room visit shouldn't be the first time you see a doctor. Plant based diet, fresh fruits and vegetables, no fried foods, anti inflammation focus. Exercise -- especially walking. Regular brisk walking. Care for the environment, chemicals, clean water, bigger budget for the FDA -- which hardly checks any imported food that comes into this country. Look it up if you don't believe it. There are so many things that are already known to be important to our health. No miracles. Healthy eating and exercise don't automatically translate into a miserable life! Eating anything you want because you've developed cravings for unhealthy food -- chips, etc. doesn't automatically translate into a good life....See MoreRita / Bring Back Sophie 4 Real
