    Jimjim's new diy 'creeation'

    Whoa. I'm in love. As I'm sure you know, the 10W R/B multichips have an awesome R/B ratio for flower compared to the higher wattage iterations (20W, 30W, 50W, etc). And then the XT-E's are a delicious icing on top of the cake. You also had the option to go all 660nm multichips over the R/B...

    making a new pannel

    I wish there was a high power (50W) Cree/Luxeon/Oslon version of this for "cheap": http://www.ebay.com/itm/8W-1900K-Sunset-Led-Panel-/220865905075?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item336ca241b3 Kind of interesting, especially since a lot of people seem to enjoy Warm/Neutral White...

    High Humidity At Night - DIY (Do It Yourself) Solution?

    CaliJoe: I have to push the air through my carbon scrubber, I can't use PC fans. I've got a Panasonic Whisperceiling rated for 80cfm and it's having an issue pushing through the filter, although my new design has increased flow dramatically. joe macclennan: The thing is -and I'm sure you know-...

    New light test and first grow

    Can you filter the water? http://www.rakuten.com/prod/zerowater-water-filter-pitcher-5-blue-white/214674467.html?listingId=196111823 Brita, PUR, ZeroWater, etc. Not sure how much water you need at a time. This works for me and my tap water (not from a well) just fine.

    Best 300w LED for the money?

    ^^^ This. 300W per panel Need four panels 1200W total $600-$700 total Need 1.7-2W per dollar Those are some hard criteria to meet even if DIY was an option. I like the look of these types of lights...

    Multichip LED, Remote Phosphor - Guess who it is.

    PICO: CO2 is good for all stages of growth, but vegging plants is easy so usually people try to do it as economically (read as cheaply) as possible. Fran: Thanks, I'll have to look into that stuff. Right now I've got my yeast jug set up so that CO2 flows out of the lid, then it moves past the...

    Multichip LED, Remote Phosphor - Guess who it is.

    Juuust about the 6th week of flower, I think. Here she is: Couple different White Balance settings. It's hard to get a natural looking photo with the Warm White on top and R/B/W panels all around. Good news, it looks like the leaf curl has stabilized with the last flush. Night time RH is still...

    High Humidity At Night - DIY (Do It Yourself) Solution?

    I tried with the flaps open for I think three days. One day it decreased the RH by a few percent, the next day it was still at 99%. I built a new carbon scrubber and it has a lot more air flow. One night it got down to 92%, but that was still with the AC on pretty high. If I put the AC at a...

    Flowering with Cree bulbs

    This thread has a long discussion on measuring LED light sources in terms of plant productivity. I'm sure lumens are mentioned numerous times.

    Bridgelux Vero 29 LED Test

    Shade of Green looks fine to me, they look very healthy. The broad leaves -especially on on the "droopy" plant- could be strain, could be light quality, could be the little bit of over watering, could be a combination of things, Idk. Now on the 24th picture I don't really know what's going on...

    Wth is going on in pic 24? Lol. Looks like rather odd leaf formation to me. Lookin' good, though. Very healthy plants so far. BROAD leaves, holy smokes.

    The 'Shimmer' Experiment

    That's a lot of work. I have an idea if you were using multichip arrays, but it'd be a specialty type of item that would have to be made. No idea how you'd do it yourself. Why are we trying to do this? The "defocused" areas are areas that at the surface were of high reflection? Aren't you...

    Bridgelux Vero 29 LED Test

    Iirc, you're in FFOF. I wouldn't feed, it should have everything they need for some time. Yeah, Charley better pick it up. You might want to pull her if she doesn't, the others might start to overshadow her unless you train them not to.

    Multichip LED, Remote Phosphor - Guess who it is.

    Yeah, I'm not sure. If I was to look into it I'd research what those guys are doing who are distilling wine and stuff. They'd probably know what's up, but I've already got a hobby. I feel that'd be like chasing after something that's chasing after something that's chasing after something.

    Multichip LED, Remote Phosphor - Guess who it is.

    jimjim: Dunno on the co2 tablets. Thanks, it uses a lot more carbon than my last. I didn't smell much of anything before unless I opened the flower room, but hopefully this will last longer and do a better job of things. heckler: I've got a gallon jug that I filled halfway full, added about...

    Multichip LED, Remote Phosphor - Guess who it is.

    Alright, just installed DIY Carbon Scrubber V2.0. Seems like there's some alright airflow all around the unit, so I'm hoping that will lower the nighttime RH and I can turn the AC unit down. Will see in a few days once my hygrometer/thermometer has a chance to reset the 24h values. I also...

    Bridgelux Vero 29 LED Test

    I think they're little oily secretions and/or little peach fuzz hairs. I think they're pretty. On the multimeter, dunno how deep it is. Never used one, either. Try watering the plant every other day and see how "dry" the meter reads.

    Cree XM-l Panel... Supplementing 730 and up With Halogen

    Rrog, I wasn't distinguishing between Far Red and IR (still not sure if I'm on the same page). I'm talking wavebands and their physiological effect on the plant. Whether or not it's hitting the nail on the head as far as absorption efficiency goes, I'm not really worrying about it. So, for me...

    PF: Yeah, I shoulda specified this is with soil. I don't know of any soil that will drain that fast. PICO: I think you gave me rep recently, although I forget what for. It's the little sheriff star underneath the post you'd like to +rep, right next the report icon, but I'm thinking RIU will...
