we are now going with the Timber 900 watt vero 29C's. fits our space better and gives some expansion capabilities if we choose too.

Sounds like a good way to go, in my opinion.

Very cool! Congratulations! Good choice too! You have an AC & Co2 ready? Or are you not going sealed?

I don't play quote games.
Not getting into it.
Guy you came at me sideways w/ my Amare's for one. Calling them par # inflators n stuff. Trying to make your Maxipad shine on my Pro-9 mapping thread. My #'s were live & in person, yours were unverified, one corner of the map multiplied & replicated for the other 3 in a shiny tent, from an unknown source. Some grow store I guess. But tried to directly compare.
Just let it go. I won't mention you again. Just read this thread n saw you two going at it, both very unprofessional. He's usually the one out of line. But I see your work too.

Just a heads up for the QB fanboys. You can currently get 2 foot long Samsung H series strips which have the same 561c diodes as QB's with 48 diodes a strip for $9.75 at arrow. Eight of these strips would be 384 diodes for $78USD with free shipping. More diodes than QB's for less money if you factor in shipping. No month+ long wait as they have over 3000 in stock and made by samsung themselves.

More for less money and you dont have to deal with people who will get into juvenile pissing matches trying to sell their product. And zero wait time.

No I was just trying to tell you how you where mis interpreting the number from the passport and no I wasn't wrong and I'm still not.... You chose to argue about a subject you knew nothing about. I never said a word about your par chart. I was only trying to educate you on the numbers you where displaying and you took it personal...... I didn't come at you sideways...... Facts are facts man no matter how you feel about them. I have no problem with any company anywhere. I didn't knock Amare one but. Just want going to sit and let you mis inform people. I didn't even think or imply that you where doing it to deceive anyone...... Rather you just didn't know what you where looking at.
Sorry you took it so personal......
So you aren't going to quote because you "aren't getting into it" ..... Sounds like you have no material to back up your statement. Now if you could finally remove it as I requested because it's utter B.S.

What about me lol. Although I sell CXB parts I have a light that puts out 170lm/w lol no one mentions Artificial Sun Specialty but I like how people are choosing sides and I'm glad I'm not apart of it. Maybe if my my was mentioned more probably people would be fighting with me too lol. I have the lowest price on Cree besides Jerry from Kingbrite but I'm in the US

Im a noob to LED here, i know not a whole lot as always been hps but when i saw the same 561c diodes ppl are raving about for less money than QB for more diodes and zero wait it seemed a no brainer. If you can beat samsung made strips 384 diodes for $78 shipping included i would shout it loud cause im sure you will get business. Not mine because i already ordered tho. I didnt overlook you as im new and jumped at what was the best option i could find. Good luck to though.
I was under the impression cree cobs were the best of yesteryear and are now just overpriced options that are bettered by more than a few things? Just going by my research around here with zero bias towards any particular option. Well other than i try to avoid juvenile business owners.

Naw, you can go tell on me if you want. You know what you did n said. Very unclassy for the originator of "The White Light Revolution" lol!
No, I don't quote you cuz I don't play those games & I'm busy caring for my veg. I mean, you know how much work it is, being a grower n all as I've seen you post.
Don't you have an unsuspecting noob to prey on w/ thousand $ CXA's? Or another thread about another light to peddle your QB's?
Got work to do. Done w/ this crapola.
And yes, I did understand what I read n posted know matter how much you try to spin it up. N it was legit info. from Anova testing.

Thx.
We ordered an AC unit also. should be here next tuesday according to Amazon. Still thinking about CO2. may hold off on this first grow and see how things go. Have a nice hurricane fan with a HEPA for the intake and an exhaust fan with louvers to remove any heat. Our "Griega Y" seed popped today so it has been a good day. Hubby is going to be excited to see it popped as it didn't look all that great appearance wise. We're doing the Griega outside in a scrog grow....once it gets bigger than the 1/2 inch it is right now.

What do you mean by that question because I'm an efficiency nerd and I have some Phillips 3030 lights but I like cobs.
Phillips 3030 500w lights
My active cooled CXB3590 400w lights
600w CXB3590 passively cooled lights

I meant nothing by the question, im newer to led and the opinions i see around here seem to indicate other cobs equal cxbs performance but cost less to buy. Pretty much every thread i see that talks about options that even mentions those cree ones says to not buy them cause they perform no better than cobs that are $10+ cheaper. Its not my opinion i dont know either way, its just what i cosistently read around here and u were seeming to say different so i asked.

You need to read more and criticize less, 3590's are still great for high efficiency builds. Some of the other COBs are better for best bang for the buck builds when driving them harder.

They use Cree CXB3070 and Citizen and the price you can get CXB3590 lights.

Im not criticizing. At least 3 times in the post i said i dont know its what ive read and you are saying different so i asked. Why do ppl get so defensive when someone who freely admits they dont know asks what to me is a legit question? i have no opinion either way and depending what thread you read i hear opposite things. How many times i ahve to say i dont know, im asking. Jesus some ppl. I thought the entire point of forums like this was to share knowledge and ask questions. Do i really need to link 3+ threads that say exactly that before you actually answer the question instead of a generic read more bs answer?
