4x4x7 one sun system's 315 lec, i did 6 plants (gorilla glue clones), vegged in coco in 1gallon pots, then transplanted into 5 gallons with ocen forest soil before the flip. I lolipop'd like a madman and ended up with 14 oz of fat dense nugs. Not too shabby considering it was my second grow. I'm...

His work looks legit for sure, which one of his strains would be the most stable. Im not much of a pheno hunter like most people here, i am limited in my growing situation and would like to get a running start with one of his strains.

so ive been growing for about a year and i can say that im loving it, but the learning process has been intense. Ive learned the hard way that genetics are crucial, and that unverified clones can be a waste of time and money, i should have recognized this after my first grow but i was still...

Thanks for the reply guys, i may just end up picking up the light first and running it in an open space in my garage to get an idea of the light spread. I have never seen one up close but heard nothing but good things. Thanks again.

Glad i found this thread, I'll be buying the sun system lec in two weeks along with a tent. I'm leaning towards a 4x4 just to have more wiggle room, I'll be flowering no more than 4 plants at a time but I've read that these lights are ideal in a 3x3 tent. What do you guys think, I've been...

Thank you, thats what i was hoping to hear, ive done my research and weighed the pros and cons with running this setup over hps and diy cobs and i feel that for me this setup would be best. I have a notebook full of potential diy cob setups and notes taken from all the led guys here, but the...

I guess it might sound strange, 8 square feet to 9 is not much gain at all but im fine with that as I'm not really trying to expand a whole lot and grow a ton, my idea was to keep the 2x4 with the led for veg, and the 3x3 with the 315w lec for flower, just something that will pack more punch in...

I get what you're saying, im by no means a pro grower and ive considered a diy cob build for my current tent. I have the green 144 reflector from mars, its not a bad light and does produce good quality imo, i just feel it lacked penetration power. I was thinking that an upgrade to a strictly...

Like the title suggests, what kind of yields could be expected from a setup like that, a 315 lec from sun systems in a 3x3 tent with 4 plants. I'm thinking of purchasing a new setup for my second grow. My first grow was 3 plants in a 2x4 with a Mars hydro and it was a bit of a let down on the...

So what is the ideal range of ppfd one should strive for in a square foot when building or buying leds?

How many heat watts could this little heatsink dissipate, i was hoping it would be ok for running a vero 10 or vero 13 at low current. I calculated the vero 10 running at .300 ma to dissipate around 9 watts of heat and put out around 8 watts of light. Seems like a smaller heatsink/fan...

Thanks, I'll look into the info realstyles has provided, i feel like this is the last piece of the puzzle that eludes me for some reason and been driving me a bit crazy. Thanks.

Im pretty new to this diy led business but in a short time ive been able to learn alot, lately ive been trying to find a way to calculate the amount of heat put out by a cob (heat watts) and also the amount of light being emitted, i guess that would be par watts? Anyway im wondering if there...

So after doing more reading on the subject in this forum which by the way has some very talented contributors, im begining to understand things a bit more. Im going with the lpc60 1050 to run a single cxb3070 with an active heatsink, if all goes well and i dont fry the cob I'll be doing more of...

Thanks for the quick response, much appreciated. I'll check those out first thing in the morning. Seems like it might be what i was looking for. I wanna get into this slowly and i figure this way i can move onto more intricate builds as i become more familiar with all the details involved...

This has been a really interesting read, im on my first grow with a mars hydro 144 reflector in a 4x8 tent with three plants currently in flower and so far so good, im happy with my led but i would like to upgrade soon and this diy cob is something I've been researching relentlessly. Theres one...
