I've used 62% for a long time ...but it is slightly gummy in the grinder and pipe sometimes. Not horrible but I am thinking of trying 58% this time. I'm curious before I spend money on boveda packs if 58% is too low for vaping in my volcano and pax. Does the extra water content help produce more...

Was going to use my old soil just sitting around in some pots outside, dumped them all into tubs and the last pot had all these little white bugs in it. It was the only pot that had wet soil because it didn't have any drain holes

I bought a few autos, should have read a little more first. It seems like the recommended approach is to germinate in the container you intend on finishing in. I didn't do this and germinated in solo cups where they have been for about five weeks or so. I was planning on moving them into a new...

Didn't see it mentioned here in search...has anybody used it? It appears to be very close to sulfric acid but in powder form...

So, when you have a lot of strips to connect back to the driver what's the best approach for this? Instead of a big ass wad of wire with wire nuts how about a termination block then from the block to the driver. Anybody have any examples of a clean and safe install?

I've made my own strip light before with bridgelux. I'm curious though what's the deal with cobs, I used to be interested in them until I found out how easy strips were but seems like folks still build cobs. What's the pros and cons between the two, how do they compare for those that have had both?

I bought some mother earth coco from Amazon and re-hydrated some of it for seedlings. I noticed on day one that it didn't smell like the coco I've used in the past but then again it's been a few years; it has a off weird smell...maybe almost like formaldehyde. Is this due to them washing it in...

Is there a cheap programmable potentiometer that can be programmed by a app and smart phone or over the wifi and browser? I'm looking at this driver and instead of using a simple potentiometer I was wondering about controlling the light intensity, on / off schedules via a app. It would be nice...

I’m wanting to build a new led light and am curious what brand and style of strips you guys would consider buying at current times with focus on reasonable price? The last led light I built was based on bridgelux gen 2 strips @3500k. Are the bridgelux gen3 strips doing well for you guys or are...

I've not grown in several years and looking for a new tent. The last one I had was a vivosun and it was just ok but did have some issues with zipper, light leaks and the poles were not that strong. I was wanting a 2x4 and or 4x8 and was wanting the opinion for (AC Infinity, Spider Farm and...

I'm needing a new PH meter and was wondering if there's any sub $100 that are decent quality that are accurate and have longevity? I assume a replaceable sensor model would be worthwhile. One a side note while I have a good PPM meter I'm curious if any of the all in one meters are any good or...

Been away for a few years and wanted to look into getting something going again. I generally grow in coco hempy buckets for the simplicity but at times like dwc when the winter comes around and helps keep the water cool. I've tried a lot of nutes; the dyna-gro and maxibloom were the best to me...

What are you guys using for cheap frames and heat sinks for led strip style lights like the bridgelux EB series? I’ve got some EB at a inch width and some kingbrite style that are 2inch in width two strips in one. The last time I built my EB light I used aluminum flat bar that I ordered from the...

I've decided to build another light and was looking for a recommendation for the correct driver to use and best practice of wiring it parallel or in series and the pros and cons to each of the two methods. My last light I wired it in series..worked great. One question, I know if you wire in...

Hey guys, I have a light I've already built but I'm going to add onto it and expand it some. Currently I have 9 x the EB series G2 strips but at 3500K and I was thinking of adding some blue. The light is for flowering but I'm wondering if a little blue might help for a fuller spectrum. Have any...

Hello gents, I'm still having issues with my new Led adventure and wanted to point out a few things I've been trying and noticing reproducible. The summary is when I put my plants under the Led light I built the leaves start to turn yellow over time but under the hps they start to green up. I...

I've recently put together a diy led light using 9x "BXEB-L0560Z-35E2000-C-B3" strips mounted onto a aluminum frame I made and driven by a hlg-185h-c1050a. The lights footprint is 18 inches deep and 24 inch wide. It turned out great, It's bright as fuck and I know that doesn't mean anything to...

Good day friends. I'll start off saying I have a few grows under my belt and have done very decent in the past but I was using hps for both veg and flowering. I decided I wanted to go LED for many reasons. I built me a led strip light using 9x BXEB-L0560Z-35E2000-C-B3 running on a meanwell...

I just got a bridelux strip led light built using the 3500k color temp and was wondering if anybody here is using that temp with success? I'm not sure what it might be but some seedlings have been under the light for about a week and still look weak so I brought out my old trusty 150 hps and...
