I truly have no dog in this fight I am just stuck at home with influenza A and happened to stumble across this “balling light”. At no point do they ever recommend doing “double the light intensity”. They actually recommend having the peak on the initial “lights on” and you ramp down from there. No different than having a peak period in the middle of the day for 3-6 hours, instead it’s at the beginning.

Josh from WWC actually runs his lighting schedule in this fashion.
I hope you get well soon.

To clarify. They actually recommend to go to 120% of your normal peak setting at once, right after dosing and keep it there for several hours and then ramp down to your previous 100% and finish the schedule as you like. That is quite the incrase in light compared to a gradual ramp up over several hours.

They say in their videos that this is an essential part of the bolus method. Bolus uses balling light products but applies them differently than the balling light method.

I gave my example to show that one could market water as an pH additive if you include an advice to increase light intensity. I even added some

Yes , I exaggerated. But to a lesser extent that is exactly what is happening here. The part of the pH increase caused by the lighting increase is wrongly attributed to the bolus dose.
