I've been interested in this capability for a while but it seems like it's not available without some kind of complicated DIY arduino setup.

Hey man Yeah my findings suggest that you're right. I treated once with Spinosad and made sure I sprayed down everything really thoroughly. My Dark Plasma are pretty big too, so I definitely used a lot more of the spray than I expected. It seemed like most thrips died immediately, but some were...

Hey Mark, I'll put my name forward as a tester. You can see my garden in my sig. I bought my first COBs from you back in the day so it would be quite fitting :) Cheers

Uff good question... I was at Uni, so it must have been 1997 or 1998. It was bad.

And on the right side we've got a kinda SOG thing going on with 16 clones in 1 gallon fabric pots... These are just approaching the end of week 3 and cruising nicely. It's a bit of a multistrain run, but at least 75% is the same cut of Special Queen #1. Need to clean up the lowers today, bud...

Quick update on the 4x8 tent... On the left side we've got the 6x Dark Plasma recovering nicely from the thrip attack and starting to stack and bulk the last few days. They just finished week 5 so I hope to see some real bulking in the next couple weeks.

hehe not knocking you bro - the only way you would ever get me back there is in a caravan!! I am still scarred from Glastonbury experience lol

Ooh look at you!!

Lol the only time I went was like the wettest one ever lol - it was a total fckn washout!!

That's a pretty sweet offer from Cobby G there - you could do worse than going for that and save yourself a bunch of work for around the same kinda value. I've bought from him before and I vouch for him wholeheartedly. cheers

Trust me dude, these can compete. I run both COBs and strips and in many ways I prefer the strips. Simply build a frame out of aluminium angle and that will act as your heatsink. You can't beat it for value. Honestly I have done a fair bit of reading (nerd here) and this is the best bang for the...

Man that really is very beautiful! Wowsers!! Have fun at Glastonbury dude, Kinda jelly!

Normally Arrow or Verical sells them cheapest. All you get is the strip with a simple push in connector. You will need some wire (16awg should be fine) and a suitable driver. Most folks here use meanwell HLG series. On the whole this type of build can come in under $1 per Watt.

It's hard to beat the Bridgelux EB strips for value right now. Bridgelux BXEB-L0560Z-35E2000-C-A3 is the part number of the 3500K colour temp at 560mm long, which is normally a good choice. They are super easy to connect... just need to make a frame from aluminium angle and that is actually the...

Ok so the best way is to search for the lowest price using Octopart.com which aggregates prices for lots of stores. Last time I checked, the Bridgelux EB series were the cheapest. Usually Arrow/Verical offers the best price. I opted for 3500K colour temp as it's generally good for both veg and...

Nice! I plan to do preventative through veg with the neem in the future (was intending to do that this run, but just got too busy with moving house etc) and hopefully that will act as a good deterrent like your peppermint oil. The Spinosad worked wonders and I, like others, seemed to have wiped...

Honestly dude if you're on a tight budget, go for Samsung or Bridgelux hard strips. There is no better value available right now and they are so easy to wire up etc. We can talk you through it :)

Ghost train haze looks fine considering it's been neglected and it's getting that chinese child labour spectrum lol The big tent looks like you've got buds all the way to the bottom :) I'm really struggling with summer temps since it averages 90f here all summer - got my LEDs dimmed below 50%...

No I don't believe it will. A 1-10V driver can only be dimmed to 10%... the only way to turn it off is with a timer/relay.

Yeah that must be the problem, because @Bosgrower is right... quality LED efficiency is much more efficient which more more photons and less heat. With that said, there is just a point whereby your extraction just can't keep up...unless the air being drawn in is much cooler.
