    PICO's DIY Thread - Advise, Ideas and Technology - NO PANEL REPS!

    yea id have suggested 2:1 too, but then it would not work with the Driver i suggested as you Need to connect 2 cobs to one Driver to fullfill Minimum V and not to exceed max allowed V. so maybe 2x2700K 1x5000k and maybe 1x something inbetween

    Hi mechmike, why would you rather go for more blue (5000k) than red (2700k), thought lots of red is important for flower

    Cree CXA3050 100W Custom LED Grow Journal with Dinafem Blue Widow

    How LEDs become overdriven Even if the LEDs are all from the same production batch and sequentially manufactured, the Vf of individual LEDs still has a ±20% tolerance. The tolerances mean that the total forward voltage for each string can be very different and therefore the current mismatch...

    Cree CXA3050 100W Custom LED Grow Journal with Dinafem Blue Widow

    ops, so is mine, was thinking series sry. I think it should work, as Long as its still safe if one led Fails as u mentioned. The Problem with parallel is the difference in each led compared to the others, so flow will not be distributed equally which gets worse as they heat up (thermal runaway)...

    Cree CXA3050 100W Custom LED Grow Journal with Dinafem Blue Widow

    looking at the Datasheet page 7 2nd Diagramm, i guess they wont light up at all or very dimmly, because of the low voltage 48V/5 -> imagine the current in that Diagramm @ 10V...but i would not bet on that im right lol

    Root mass, how important is it?

    Im noob, but i think i read that those roots wont stop growing, just slower in flower. If I imagine root mass as "stomach volume", how much could you eat and grow big with only a tiny tiny stomach
