Wookie Wonder update ....

Week 4 of flower ...
Plus this a pollen chuck on a couple of lowers 2 weeks ago and we got some new seeds !

First she is doing well in the hempy buckets ....
Same GH NUTES ( MAXIBLOOM ) and kelp at straight water ( between feeds )
PH @5.9
Quantums 3500k 4 panel with Citizen Cobs
Power dim set at 360w ( 60w PER all QB and CoBs )
630-660nm supplemental boost

Smells like Sweet Earth ....

Pollenation was from that Sugar High ( GG4 X NINJA TURTLES ) plant that went full male . I harvested the sacks and pollinated the Wookie ( 2 lower branches ) .

Sup y'all. So i have an adorable little 2x3 space. There is currently 135w QB 288 kit in there and it did a marvelous job for me last run. However.. i was really only utilizing 2x2 or so of my space. I was thinking of adding a bit of light. Trying to decide between getting the bigger slate and adding nother 288 and running it at lower power or just grabbing a QB96 elite and using that to fill in the space. Either way i feel like I'm going to be under driving whichever i choose. The bigger slate/driver/second 288 otption gives me a light that can be run harder in a bigger space should i need it but is a bigger investment. What do you good folks think?

If I were you, I'd get the 288. But I'm a bit OCD about symmetry.

No the 324 is a 100+ volt board and the 288 is a 50 volt board. Boards must match fairly closely in voltage, even within the same board. That's why its best to buy the number of boards you want to run in total, all at once as they'll voltage match them.

Hi guys is it possible to wire up the 324qb & the 288qb on the same driver?

That applies for parallel strings of boards, yes. Any build including a 100V board is going to run in series with a CC driver.

I normally prefer symmetry as well, but I've been wanting to give a bit of that far red goodness a try and it's making the 96 very appealing. Lol.
Far red, you say?

Hopefully @Stephenj37826 or @robincnn will post a thread for this product. I've been thinking about adding some far red myself, and the small size of these strips makes them ideal for fitting into non-standard sized grow spaces.

That too! But i misspoke. I was actually referring to deep red rather than far red. The 660nm on the 96 is what i was thinking of.

Grew a couple in my greenhouse this summer. I always have some to vape, its may favorite. I had one tube of seed that was bad, I don't know why. I've sampled other tubes and they germ fine. Let me know, I'm sure more could find their way to you...

Sounds good ... I unfortunately have more beans than I could possibly run ...
However , I’m sure trading spaces “ could happen “ ....lol. If you looked at my latest cross ...
Host mom is hella stout and strong so these should be something.

Always liked the variety of cuts you run ... I’m the same way .... I gotta try this and that.
Plus I’m generating a SHIT LIST of beans to AVOID. Like Tangerine Dream .... horrible .
Barney’s Blue Cheese .... hot garbage too. Kind of why I brew my own.
