    Light question

    Can you link the fixtures you're using(as in post a description)? How much area are you trying to light? This a simple, cost-effective tool I use to set my lights. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q56D14Z/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Peace sign split-apart at the top?

    Yep, foxtailing. I'm currently running a pheno of PrimalPunch this grow, and while it's definitely a frost monster it nugs up like that. Mine is just from genetics, the room environment has been on point the entire run, so I think it may just be an expression of the strain.

    Chiller Question

    That's the unit I've used for 3years now. So far, it's been reliable.

    Question about coco watering

    I started dabbling with coco last year with my pheno tent. I use 3-gal fabric bags and find that they are quite happy with 2-3 liters/ day. I just water to runoff and they are fine til the next day.

    Need some wise led gurus

    Well, when do you think they'll be 'big' enough for full sunlight? I feel that once a seedling has developed a few true leaf sets, it's capable of handling normal lighting conditions. I start seedlings or clones in my mother tent(about 5sq ft). It has a single qb that I run @75w at 20" and they...

    Torus Perfect pH

    I had a few of these units to test out last year in my rdwc system. They definitely kept the ph very stable but I did see some weird growth in my root system compared to previous grows.

    Need some wise led gurus

    I run the same fixture in my 4x4 pheno tent. I try to maintain about 20-24" headroom during the grow, I run the fixture @ 50% power during the initial veg cycle and increase the power to 100% gradually over a week or two prior to flipping to flower. Works really well for me.

    Kingbright 320w help.

    Time to break out your voltmeter and check voltage at each board. If they all have the same voltage being applied, I'd say that you may have some bad boards. If you're seeing vastly different voltage at each board, check the wiring at the buss connection for the output.

    Looking for Guidance on making Rosin with my press, and turning that into Vape Oil

    Bottom line...to make vapable extract you need to remove waxes and fats from the extract. Winterization is the process that does that. Again, all the Source or etoh really do is RECOVER the alcohol. The real magic lies in the beginning steps.

    Looking for Guidance on making Rosin with my press, and turning that into Vape Oil

    A deep freezer is all I use. My home fridge/freezer would get the tincture down to -10degF and works fine for small batches. The primary benefit of colder temps is that it allows you more work time washing/draining the material before the solvent temp rises enough to allow the chlorophyll/water...

    Wiring a board to fuse box??

    You didn't mention what you're using for lighting, but you may need to divide the load with separate timers for 1/2 of the lights when the ballasts/drivers turn on. Look at inrush current demands of your fixtures. Firing up that load simultaneously could cause the magnetic interrupter in the...

    Looking for Guidance on making Rosin with my press, and turning that into Vape Oil

    chlorophyll is still in there, all the light has done is bleach it. The best suggestion would be to use a technique that doesn't extract the chlorophyll in the first place.

    Looking for Guidance on making Rosin with my press, and turning that into Vape Oil

    All the Source or etoh does is recover the alcohol for reuse. The process for making the concentrate is the same-wash the material, filter and winterize the wash and then evaporate the solvent. What you're left with is cannabis oil with all of the cannabinoids from the flower. I use a...

    Wiring a board to fuse box??

    That looks like 5kW with the fan. A 240v service will use just over 20A with everything running. Because you're running a continuous load, I would derate the circuit by 1/3 so a 30A circuit would be needed. 10ga wire from the breaker to the board should work.

    Looking for Guidance on making Rosin with my press, and turning that into Vape Oil

    I've been making concentrates for a couple of years now using cryo-ethanol extraction. I also have a rosin press, it also makes very nice dabbable material but it also contains a lot of waxes and fats that make using a c-cell problematic. Because you will need to winterize using ethanol, it...

    PPFD seems wrong

    I think that Migro did a comparison using a lux meter and his apogee, and if I remember correctly the cheap lux meter he used gave a reasonably accurate measurement when using white leds. I think the example found that 40k lux was equal to 1000ppfd. I find that my plants start to show signs of...

    DYI build, 4 to 4.5' bar style need help

    No, each double row is about 40mm wide, the aluminum strip is about 50mm wide. The strips are mounted with simple 3/4"x.125" aluminum strips with rivets. I just added some simple bends to angle the outriggers towards the center of the canopy. Each array is flanked by a pair of double rows, so 2...
