You should be able to get some better gpw numbers of those veros if you keep playing around. Maybe it's strain and grow style dependent, but I hit around 1.3 gpw with 6 of the vero 18's, 4000k mix of 80 & 90 cri running three different strains in 1.5 gal smart pots. I had better overall...
Haven't melted yet! Love it! Maybe I'll try a few on the 3 Vero 18 seedling/veggie light I'm putting together next. I have some 70-90v 525ma drivers from a Vipar I ripped apart. Im finding locating economical heatsinks the hardest. The 5$ 80w coolermaster cpu sinks keep the cobs very cool and...
Nice job. The Vero 18's should be able to support a much bigger bud. I just got done with my first led diy using 6 Vero 18's @ 1050ma in a 21"x33" box and got some good size ones 5g or so after dried. Actually pulled about 75 ,75 & 90 (240g+) off three ladies. Those heatsinks work pretty...
Hola. Im wondering what anyone thinks about the clu038 cobs. I have a diy Vero 18 setup and a couple extra 70-90v 525ma drivers. Looking at the data sheet it looks like they may run 2 clu038 each. Or should I just go with the 3 V18s? Thanx
First Vero 18 run (@185w . Day 65, lights off as I start to cut last night and today

White lavender day 55 (g13 labs)
White widow day 55 (g13 labs)
For my first diy led and bad planning, I'm happy with how they're doing
Holy cow! That's alot. I've been thinking how I cOuld add to my 6 Vero 18's. Maybe 2 strips of 4 or 5 Vero 10s down the outside would do it. What current do you drive the 10s @?
I'm running 6 Vero 18's, 4 80 cri and 2 90 cri in a diy box 22"x35" trying keep it kinda stealth. I fucked up and didn't have the light built due to work so they kinda stretched for a week before I put them into flowering. I think I could have got a more even canopy layout if this didn't...
My kandy was a freebie like 3 years ago. I too really dig the flavor / smell profile. I wouldn't call her 100% stable because I always get about 5-10 seeds out of the undeveLoped buds. But they are fem (hermi) and this little quirk has let me continue to grow her time and time again without the...
Running 6 Vero 18's @ 1.05a 4000k (4 80 cri and 2 90 cri) in a 35"x21" as my first diy cob setup. Flipped to 12/12 on the first of the month. I must say that the g13 labs WW and White lavender have some really nice development already. Much larger than I was getting at this point with the 7...
What kind of coverage area does anyone recommend six vero 18's 4000k 80 cri running at 1050ma? They really stretched in the week that I put together the light and they were only getting window light. Ill be tying them down so that the canopy penetration will only need to be about 12"-18". Any...
Thanks for the info I thought they'd be finE I don't plan on taking then apart to much and I grabbed a few extra incase. Hopefully get it finished by the weekend.
Hola! I'm doing a Vero 18 build with 6 cobs and a mw hlg-185h-c1050 525-1050ma. I went with the picos ez-mate. I see some people against these due to voltage being to high. the data sheet I downloaded says there good up to 300v. Anyone have an opinion on this seeing as the driver has a high...
Plants seem to be responding well after being under the V18's @ 560ma for a couple weeks. Trying to figure out the flowering light to build. I'm looking at 9 V18's @ 1050ma or 700ma. Does anyone know the canopy penetration levels of the V18's @ these currents? Thanks
