Oh dang, I thought with the A version of that 120 driver I would be able to pull the full 40 volts out of that adjustable range if needed. Even if this driver will power these up just fine, still not sure if it would be advised to run the driver above that 36 volt mark. Any clarification on this...
So I've worked through a bunch of numbers for diff drivers on my 10 strip build and am down to just one last question about the driver. I think I'm decided on the hlg-120h-36a which could run the strips up to 680ma and roughly 19 volts a piece, but want to make sure this is a viable option since...
Awesome man, I'll keep you informed. That was my exact thought process behind it all, we'll see if it all works. The jar smells sweet just like the original em1 concentrate that I have, so assume things all finished up ok. I haven't strained it yet but stir it up once a week or so and it...
So I have no dog in the lighting discussion between the types of lighting. I have only grown indoors under led lighting and have been lucky enough to have had found this forum before spending a lot of money on "lesser" leds so I am perfectly content with what I have for now, but still enjoy...
The original one is what I have, the gsc forum cut x 88hp. Grew great and really outshined the sundance kids in my opinion. I will definitely be purchasing more bodhi seeds in the future..
So I'll start by saying I have only put together a couple of board lights so far and have no experience yet with any strips. That said, I wanted to get some strips to try out, so i bought 20 of these...
Harvested my plants about a month ago. Minus some stupid mistakes on my part, things went great under these lights. Sorry for the shitty quality pics but I'm no photographer. Smoke is great and covered in trichs making me a happy consumer.
Just planted three more of the more cowbell seeds under...
Sorry op, I'm really new to all the DIY stuff myself so feel like we are in the same boat, but these two quotes really clicked for me as far as series and parallel wiring combined. I took away that wiring in combination like they explained keeps things from running things with either a high...
I got 20 of the 4k 90cri coming, 2 ft strips, and was thinking of running them like @Randomblame and @cobshopgrow were saying. Probably wire two strips in series together then the 5 sets in parallel on a hlg-120-36. Haven't ordered any drivers yet, but just what I'm thinking so far. I haven't...
Just threw in some cantaloupe scraps yesterday so figured I'd snap some pics of the bins. Also a picture of the bokashi bran I'm attempting, not really sure how that's going though as it's a first attempt.
I tried to find some a while back and couldn't. I stumbled across some posts on a different forum and saw that futureelectronics.com had them (hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes with all this). They had minimum 20 piece purchase and had 3 different kelvins in stock i think, the...
So I couldn't help myself from the boredom and monotony these days and bought 20x 4000k 90cri eb gen3 strips. At $6 a piece I figured it would completely round out my led list as I have some cobs and boards already and now some strips on the way. The 4000k was also something that I didn't have...
I just set two more new bins up a couple months or so ago. Trying my homemade compost out as the bedding on these new bins and things are going well so far. I'll post some pictures of them currently sometime soon as I love seeing what other people have going as well.
I also just mixed up my...
Looks great man, nice to see some more work under the highlights.
I finished my first run with my highlights boards not long ago, but had a bunch of grower errors towards the finish and truly didn't do the boards justice. All in all I am really happy with the boards and think with a few...
that's exactly how I'm looking at it, a million different ways to go about things. I still had around 3/4 of a quart size bottle from a couple years ago so thought it was time to play around with it.
as for the jars I have now, the one with just em1/molasses I followed the basic activation...
I agree fully that all things have to be taken into consideration as the variables in organic soils seem to be endless. I enjoy your aspect on growing as it seems to be in the same realm as what I have going on. Not sure if what I'm doing is the "correct way", but it makes sense to me. I just...
I think they look great as well, keep it up. As long as they stay looking healthy, they will do their thing with time I'm sure. Out of curiosity, what kind of lights are you using?
That sounds like a solid mix to me. I would love to see the results of this soil when you get some plants going in it.
I would maybe just mix in some small amounts of ewc/compost/aeration right before you fill some pots to give it a fresh kick of microbes. I know our soils differ in...
