Nice man, hope it all worked out ok for you. Looking back, I wish I would have grabbed the 3k 90cri 2 footers too, but I am sure I will be happy with the 4000k that I got. I am hoping it will be pretty versatile for whatever application I end up using it for. I put my strip build on hold for...

https://www.rollitup.org/t/buddies-side-light-and-under-canopy-leds.1009726/ INnpost #8 you can see the spectrum charts for the buddies strings. I could be way off and it looks like the blue peaks on the 4k white's is a bit different so please take what i say with a grain of salt.

Those spectrums look a lot like tekniks buddies, the 4k and PC red with 450 added. Just my thoughts, but I have no idea or facts, just thought they looked similar. Cool boards though for sure.

I wish I could be a better source of info for organics for you, but I'm about as inexperienced with it as I am led lights hah. I think it is a nitrogen fixing plant though, which I haven't really looked into that much, but I think that means it can take nitrogen from the air and somehow feed...

Yea it's a medley of shit in there, but thank you. Next go round I'll get the 2 gallon pots back out and go 1-2 per pot and just focus on the greens, minimal cover crop too. I'll use the cover crops as a mulch or feed the worms or make a tea out of them for the vegging plants. It's all in good...

My two plants vegging under the highlights at a little over two weeks since breaking the soil I think. Transplanted last night and the plants seem to be doing great. Right now I'm at 100 watts from the wall and like 30inches from the tops.

Nice looking lettuce guys. Hope I can catch up and enjoy some of a harvest soon enough. Here's my update though at a little more than three weeks from sprout. Clover and fenugreek are a bit thick, but I'll get in there and cut some back soon. Also not sure what to do about these random melon...

I myself am going to have to look into some chicken feed. I have used steel cut oats a lot lately in between the regular feedings of kitchen scraps, but feed is for sure cheaper and probably more beneficial in the long run. I did make my first batch of bokashi bran and it seems to be a winner...

That looks awesome man, got me thinking about maybe trying to throw a string in each of my totes that I let my soil recycle in. It seems like it could be really useful to help keep the soil more active by growing a cover crop while things are breaking down a bit. Might be a project for tomorrow...

I can't speak on the quality or authenticity of the strips I just purchased, but should have them in hand on tuesday or wednesday of next week. I will throw some pictures up and hopefully you or others can validate them. To be honest, when I saw the price I assumed I was reading something...

Dang, well hopefully they drop back down soon and some more people can get a discounted price too if needed. Any idea on what current these would be able to be driven at without needing much more than some angle/flat bar aluminum? Initial thought being run 4 of them at around 25 watts each via...

So not trying to start a crazy buying trend, but I bought 8 of these a few hours ago at $7.70 a piece. Had to pay an import fee of 13 dollars and with tax total came to like $80 for 8 strips. Price is back up at $23 per strip again now, just a heads up for if anyone is in the market for some 4k...

I feel like I've read mixed feelings on using the leachate or not. I always just dump my leachate on my compost pile outside when it builds up in the bin. So you would advise to use it? I guess a one time wouldn't hurt to try out. At what rate per gallon of water do you use it at?

I bought some insect frass from them a little while back and got some free sample of their compost tea mix. I haven't used the tea yet since I can't really set my brewer up, but it's nice to see a happy customer using it. I love the frass though and am getting ready to flip some plants to flower...

I was just looking at arrow and found these 4000k double rows for under $8. They are the 2 footers though, so again I probably mislead you, but figured I'd put it out there. Seems like a really cheap price and I am thinking about grabbing some, but I never really looked into the f series strips...

I was looking around for some of the f-series gen3 and came accross these on arrow at a real nice price. https://www.arrow.com/en/products/si-b8t521560ww/samsung-electronics I know they are 4000k, butam I reading this correctly that it's $8 for the double row strips correct? If so that seems a...

Really enjoyed your guy's conversation yesterday, lots of good stuff to mull over. I agree with the rice hulls adding a weird texture to the soil when initially mixed in, but I personally like them a lot. I like that they break fully down into the soil after some time, but not too fast. I got...

Haha nice, I can only dream of an operation that big. I hope you find that right balance of everything. Worst case scenario it seems like you could always stop feeding the bin/bins a month or so before you need to harvest and just have a slightly less concentrated end product of castings, but...

Nice man, glad you didn't give up on the idea. Once it's all set up and you figure it out a bit it's super low maintenance and fresh ewc is a strong base for starting your organic soils. Again though i don't have near what you are setting up so take what I a am about say with a grain of salt...

Man, every time I browse through your threads I feel motivated to go work in the yard and I don't even have a yard of my own to work in... It's really cool seeing everything you have going on, so thank you for that. I wish you all the best sir and stay well. One question while I'm at it and...
