sounds like you have all kinds of things going on here PHARM!!
i was just thinking to myself about how you were talking about the LED vs hps comparison and wondered what size HPS you are comparing the LED to?? was it a 600w HPS vs 300w LED where the LED had way less wattage or was it more equal??

You bring up a good point, one I didn't really consider myself. Watt for watt, I think LED matches HPS. My LED has an actual draw of somewhere around 150-170? I'm assuming, probably closer to 150-160, so taking that into consideration, I consider them equal in production. I say again, the LEDs have no production problems, it was just my fk-up to expect a 300w yield from a panel that only draws about 150w.
After reading SGA's post and considering it for 10 seconds, considering that the panel only draws about 150w, I did pretty damn well! I was all but hurt because it was about the same yield as my 150 HPS (I expected more), but considering that my '300w' LED is a 150w, the LED concedes NOTHING in terms of yield, IMO. It was an observer error on my part.
If this post looks kinda fkd up, I apologize. Pulling another one of those no sleep weeks. Fk, why is life so stressful? A newspaper approached us to write a story on our business. They publish in multiple counties. I thought I was doing well, but after I got that call, I was thinking 'fk, I'm doin REALLY well.' To the point that we are getting a lot of attention. Basically, to cut a long rant short, I'm am performing at my PEAK, I have never been this successful before, both at school and at work, but I am just so fkn stressed out, I want to quit my job, but don't want to let my boss down because he is a cool guy, always allowed me to work around my schooling, trusted me, believed in me and saw potential in me. It puts me in a shitty position. I just wanna grow, that's it. I want I grow and continue schooling. I was recently given the opportunity to do what I love for a legitimate living, my dream, seriously! But I just don't have time and I don't want to let my boss and everyone at the office down, I'm sure they are already racking-up credit bills, anticipating that this cash train of bonuses will continue for awhile.
This is probably the wrong place to post all this shit, but anyone have advice? I can ALMOST do all 4, ALMOST, just not quite. I don't have the time to be a full time student, work just under full-time and do what i love and grow QUALITY. I have to finish up school by the time I'm 26 because that is when my scholarship will end and then it is onto law school and that usually at least $100,000 (no scholarship) at even the worst schools. I can easily pay for that if this works out....I guess I just kinda answered my own question by typing it out.... I need to quit my job?

I won't do something unless I can dump my heart and soul into it, developing an unhealthy obsession, so doing it half-asses it out of the question. Some of you may say 'just stop growing', that is not going to happen, it is one of the few things that relives my stress and that I really enjoy, even if I did, it wouldn't free-up that much time, I would still need a lot more time.
I have heard older guys say 'it is more important to do what you love than just make money for the sake of making money' and I understand what they mean, but what about when other people are relying on you? To live well and feed their families?

Thinking about it, this is my first REAL success in life. Is success usually stressful? Am I just being a whiny little bitch? It is like there is more pressure now and I've run out of tricks. My boss want me to work longer, develop more campaigns and devote more of myself. I don't think I am willing. The though if taking that path makes me really depressed. I have already been kinda depressed from stress and lack of sleep, but the thought of committing more of myself to work and not my passions is REALLY depressing.
At the same time, I am young, my boss really had faith in me to perform as well, if not better than someone older and more experienced... He took a gamble on me and i told him 'I will perform, that is all i know how to do, give me competition and I'll dedicate myself to eliminating it' And now I'm going to run away from pressure and responsibility like a young kid would, confirming everyone's initial expectation. I will embarrass both myself and my boss.
This opportunity to do what I love for a good living will only come once, it is a one-time opportunity.
FK, MAN!!!

Best advice I can offer you is do what you have to do, until you can do what you WANT to do. But don't go through life wishing you had followed your dream and having never done it. Broke, unemployed, and determined to NEVER work for someone else again, I, with a partner in the same boat, started a business. We opened in his garage. Our statup capital was $1000 we borrowed from his father. Within 2 month we needed to move into a bigger, more retail oriented space! We were doing so well we went to see about a business loan. We got laughed at. So we just kept doing what we were doing. by the 3rd year we we're doing over $300,000 in business! Not bad for 2 guys and never borrowing another dime! Our business became a success and we were happy. We didn't get rich, but that was never the goal. My motto has always been I'd rather fail doing what I want, than to never have tried.
That's awesome, man! Really, it is good to hear your experience and get some solid advice. I am glad everything work out well for you (no sarcasm intended).
But what if doing what you love comes at other people's expense and you have to let people down in the process? That's the part that has me real fkd up inside.
Are you happy in life? I don't think I every want to work for anyone again, either. Someone who I really trust and have trusted all my life has given me an opportunity, partnership with very little startup capital required on my end.
