    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Got 4* qb 288s running on as hlg480-2100. How high should the lights be over the canopy during the stages of life? Should I be dimming then down at all or run full out? Have a 4*3 space with two boards per heatsink spaced 18" apart and from walls. Ty

    Best dehumidifier

    Ok a new week new things to hash out. Since I've up my lights temps have been higher and the ventilation has been running more frequent. Maybe once an hour. Is it more worthwhile to control the humidity from my lung room vs the enclosure itself. Then I wouldn't be so worried about a large unit...

    If you unplug it and replug it in does it resume dehundifying ? Very similar to my small one. Basically a 1 pint dehumidifier.

    I was to on the one I bought but it didn't. Seems to be only the larger units advertise this feature. Only reason I asked is because it's a push button setup like the one I currently have and wouldn't be surprised if it's similar in that it in fact does not auto restart

    And also keep in mind guys that when looking at power consumption you also need to factor in the rate it can pull out water for ex. A 600w unit that does 70 pints. Is 8.5watts/pint A unit that is 60w and does 3 pints. Is 20watts/pint. Obviously the 70 pint unit will be more efficient and then...

    Does it auto restart. Id say that is the biggest feature in looking for is the ability if my env controller to turn it off and on. Aka if you pull the power plug while you've turned it on, when you plug it back in will it automatically turn back on.

    I tried this https://www.amazon.com/Hysure-Portable-Dehumidifier-Purifier-Electric/dp/B0725ZY3P1?keywords=dehumidifier&qid=1537578943&sr=8-27&ref= And doesn't do much. Even though it says it can handle the space. It also doesn't auto start once the controller shuts power off until I hit on again.

    Best dehumidifier

    Need a good one that can handle a 4*4*6' space. Smallest footprint and will turn back in after power is cut via a controller. Humidity levels are pushing 70% at times and would like to get it under control before the plants get larger.

    Humidity levels

    I'm in ne too . Spraying? What are you spraying? And sulfur? What's that for. Electric work isn't that hard. Although I say that because I'm pretty handy in most aspects. I just dislike working within the breaker box. Yet adding or moving outlets isn't all that hard you just need to know...

    Temp and humidity levels

    Setting up my controller and was looking for some input. Knew I saw a chart one time with different temps and humidity ranges for various levels of growth. My setup pulls air from a lung room that's 60-70 deg and 50%rh. I have a small dehumidifier in the grow room also and can run ventilation...
