The soldering iron is not the issue. Cutting this light in half and had to cut welds and put too much tension on wires by mistake. Moving the 7 COBs that were on right side to between the left and what was center row so they will all be how one at front of attached pic is. I think I will just...

lm redoing my light and just pulled the solder 'terminal' off vero 29. Should i just solder to new exposed plate / 'terminal' where + used to be? Or get a vero connector? I think it will prob be fine just soldering to exposed metal there...groan... Just broke another. I cannot seem to find...

Tied all down better. Not enough room in here for 13. Next time will be 6 to 8 so not so tight in here. 2nd pic is just vero10s and 3rd us both 10s and 29s...not like it looks much different.

I had been looking for a new dehumidifier. Found this deal but I already have a 50pt that seams to use same amount of electricity. This one says 4.8 amp and I just tested mine and shows 4.6 amps. I figured a newer one would use less but seems that its not worth it. What I do not have is the...

One of the last things I need to figure out is how to setup the flower room. This is really why i created this thread but think I know what I need to do now. I am thinking I want to setup for scrog. Room is aprox 8'x4' (actual 96"x44"). They way I initially designed the room/light I left no...

Ya there is nothing going on here. Water is not scummy but does smell. Just dumped it and really stunk. Will pull them all, run some bleach water thru it then drain, rinse and add new water. Stems are clearly rotting so assume should recut them. This time use clonex i guess. Do not need these...

Picked up two more Mean Well APV-12-12 power supplies to run the fans on the new COBs and another two APV-12-5 to run some more fan. LED supply has them for $6.12 shipped. They are fairly efficient at 78% for the 5 volt / and 82% for the 12v. I have 3 Cooler Master 140mm fans and am about to...

Next stuff started and one just poked out. 6 GHT. Then i did two others freebies. Bubba kush. They were not ready the other night on day 3. ~30 hours later one is ready but other looks like may not do well...idk if should leave that one in paper towel or plant as on day 4+ now so planted...if...

These wont die but wont grow roots. Maybe i was supposed to add root hormone? Or i should? At least prob change out water...idk.

Upgraded veg light: https://www.rollitup.org/t/vero-cree-cob-custom-setup.932656 Got $2 drain buckets which were needed as it takes a while for runoff so its hard to know how much to add. Watered all 13 with 7 gallons of diluted well water to 100ppm (which is less than 1/4 well water) and then...

Finished wiring fans and up and running. Got $2 oil drain pans for runoff. Have nothing in flower so sis not have to leave in dark during down time.

I just added two strings of three Vero 29s to my veg light each on 185H-C1400 drivers. Not thinking i wired them up to COBs with 18g wire from trailer harness' rather than the 14g extension cord wire i used on my other light with same HLG-185H-C1400 drivers. The 18g should be sufficient for...

Heat sinks welded in. Six Vero 29s added. Will use one HLG-185H-C1400A driver for each string of 3 in series which will each be about 150w so basically triple watts to about 600. Just need to wire it up and figure out how mount drivers.

Bending things around to try an get a flat top. We will see how they respond.

I put in a 30" door. Much easier than a roll up door. Painted one of the tubes that joins rooms so no light goes thru it. The other 4 tubes i had already painted. So now all light tight and easy access. I have been looking for trays for runoff but realize I dont need to go crazy, however...

I am not adding salt and i do not think this unit uses salt but not sure. I may bypass once I know more. HD does not seem to stock any 3 part filter housings so will use distilled water for now. So I used this method and lowed PPM to 100. Now wondering how much citrus feed to add. I used...

The veg light puts off very little heat so things are a bit cool right now, around 63F, as I am not running flower light. Had to chop down everything due to not being able to walk so just restarting things now rhar im mobile. Temps would prob be pefect now with flower light on as it puts off...

Ya the pulley setups are from bike hangers. Work great and were cheap as got 2 for $10 or so. Using two on each fixture. Replaced rope with paracord. I am on my 4th or 5th grow now but still need to make some changes to room. Spacing depends on cob and cooling as im sure u know. And then...

I want to finalize this setup so making this post. Veg light is pasive cooled with 30x vero 10s on xyz power supplies. Plan to add nine vero 29s using three HLG-185H-C1400A Meanwell power supplies. Flower room has 21 COBs with active cooling. 15 Vero 29s and 6 Cree CXAs on 7 of the same...

Made hempy buckets and transplanted everything. All have chunky perlite in bottom about half inch past hole. 7/16 hole at about a gallon which is ckiser to 3in though i know every howto says 2in from bottom but i went off video that showed to drill at 1 gallon. We will see if this is too high...
