    SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

    I know that some growers would do a little nutes in the deposit, like quarter-half strength without probs but not tested this myself. But they (is @Captain Morgan still on here) used synth ferts

    Noob LED question: what percentage light output for seedlings?

    This was my second thought but i dont know rockwool to well; is it a good idea to plant a rockwool cube into coco/soil? Not sure. OP: you have a somewhat purple stem which is usually not a good sign, too much light with too little heat usually

    Noob LED question: what percentage light output for seedlings?

    OP: what environment are you running for your seedling? Do you follow VPD? Plant looks a bit pale which could mean over lighting or that it doesnt get enough nutes. With leds you really have to dial in transpiration thru climate/vpd; no transpiration no nutes. The easiest thing to try would be...

    Pot shape: deep or wide?

    It depends on what you want regarding absorbing and retaining water. The wider the bottom, the more you have to water to get run off: more water retainined. The more narrow the bottom section is (or if you have a wide pot with "spikes" in the bottom) the less of water the substrate will absorb...

    4 qb288 on 1 hlg 240 48ab?

    I dont think thats actually correct, the diablos red diodes (samsungs rather than previous crees) cannot tale reverse current and wil fry if you wire it the wrong way. At least its what i recall from the time when hlg changed up and stopped selling the diablo as a loose board direct ro clients

    No issues with doing this as long as the boards have same voltage. 60w each. Fans are probably over kill; those sinks are designed to handle 240w so 120w should be easy.

    If this humidity swing is only at night then lowering the light intensity during the day will have minimal effects but if theres still too much rh during lights on its a solid advice.

    SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

    The room your tent is in needs to be vented, the water needs to go somewhere in the end. If not vented or evacuated somehow, then the water will just stay in the room and go back in the tent. The other thing you can do in order to drop rh is to increase the temps in the tent a bit at night.

    Yes you can do all 4 boards on one driver, its better than 4 boards on 2 dimmed drivers for efficiency. Dimmed driver are less efficient than on full power.

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Thats correct. And right side up :) Try to get it locally where construction people go, online is generally expensive with shipping long stuff.

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Dude you insist on uploading the one important pic upside down, lol. No worries. Sorry i dont have pen and paper so wont do a wiring diagram but this is easy enough to explain. On each heat sink connect the boards in series (minus on first board to plus on second board) Make sure youre...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Youd need to wire 2 boards in series, 3 parallel circuits. Currently you have pictured 3 boards in series, nothing in parallel; its just 2 separate serial connections of the same boards if i understand your diagram correctly. Should not work with that driver. Your need 2 boards in series, 3...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Could you maybe send a pic of the label on the driver for a full model nr? Afaik theres several versions of the inventronic drivers with different voltage/current. You might have the wrong driver. Not sure but i dont think all the inventronics are programmable. How does dimming work without...

    Testing Growlight Australia Gen 3 strips (and maybe side by side?)

    Oh, i seriously thought the t-slot adaptation was for doing away with drilling. Ill check how hot things get when were at full power just in case when i get up to see the grow next. Glad to see you still posting :)

    First buildout I actually own can you double check my math and tell me if I’m nuts

    OP: have you planned out a layout of your space? As in drawn it up, thought out how to access each tray and plant? 18x15 sounds a little cramped for 12x 4x4s. Assuming this would be in a 4x3 config of 4x4 trays: in order to have a small walk way between rows (say 2x1.5') youd have to push up...

    Mammoth mint white emerald green 880w

    Im not convinced that more green light is a home run in flower. In our test grow we didnt see much effect of adding UV on green heavy spectrums but we did see an improvement in smell/quality when adding UV to a red heavy spectrum. But id need to see several runs like that to draw solid conclusions.

    ⚠️Light rail 4.0 or not?⚠️ (light mover)

    What kinda yields do you get using this system, 600w led on a mover over a 4x10? Congrats on no budrot :)

    Testing Growlight Australia Gen 3 strips (and maybe side by side?)

    I knew i had some more photos somewhere: Setting up the frame with the heatsinks. So happy i could get it done thru the grooves/rails rather than using angle at the sides. Tightening nuts and bolts; side poaition seems the easiest. And finally full frame. Another advice (unless i...

    ⚠️Light rail 4.0 or not?⚠️ (light mover)

    Id agree. OP one way of judging whether light rail is any good for your situation would be to set up the lights over your cannopy and judge on how much shadow you see in the cannopy. If (as is most likely) you dont see much shadow then light mover is probably not going to move the dial very much...
