    What would you do???

    I've been buying hlg quantum boards and drivers since last june getting ready for the Nov 6 vote here in Michigan. Looking back through my orders I'd have to say around $800 or so.

    What would you do???

    Finished up my light. Set the drivers for the 304's and 288's to 60w per board and the 96's to 40w per board. So total is 480w, 30w per square foot. Lots of room to go up if needed.

    What would you do???

    So I decided to go the route of one tent for veg and flower. I'm rebuilding my light fixture to have the 4 304's, 2 288's, and 3 96's. Will be a ton of light for this 4x4 but I'm planning to turn drivers down so it's not too intense. Looking to run 500-600 watts total. This is the layout for...

    What would you do???

    I figured my first run through would be a smaller yield due to experience but thinking about it if I do get better I'd eventually get more then wanted and thus have extra DWC buckets just sitting around. Or could just give extra away as well maybe?

    What would you do???

    Oh really, good to know. I could always start off with 2 plants then and see how I fare I suppose.

    What would you do???

    So I'm new, done alot of research, bought QB's a few months back and built a light fixture. Now I'm rethinking my design and overall way of running my first grow. So I'll list what I've got, what my original plan is then what my new thoughts are. I'm hoping you experts will steer me in the right...

    Just built light fixture for my 4x4, feedback please.

    Awesome, you think it's enough light? Left corners of the fixture open to add some cobs down the road.

    Just built light fixture for my 4x4, feedback please.

    So I just got my ipower 4x4 tent. FYI, dont buy ipower tents. After setup and hooking light up I can see a few places where light is escaping. But this is my first run at a grow so I will eventually build a dedicated room instead of using a tent. So my fixture I built for veg is 2x qb288 and 2x...

    Just Pulled Trigger on Some Quantum boards. Questions

    I was thinking of getting a temp sensor that works with my nest thermostat for my grow room. That way can check my nest app and if to cold or humid I could use my Alexa app to turn on a small space heater or dehumidifier. Just a thought to maybe make it easier or monitor for my first grow/room.

    Just Pulled Trigger on Some Quantum boards. Questions

    Yes this is all stuff I’ve been thinking about. My basement is always on the cold side but not sure on humidity. I do know the place that I plan on building this, under my porch, is extremely damp in the winter to where you see condensation on the metal ceiling which is what my porch is sitting...

    Just Pulled Trigger on Some Quantum boards. Questions

    Perfect thank you. Would it be better to run the 288’s without the 96 and get the 250w or would it work better to have the 96 in there? Also same question for the 304’s. Originally wanted to do it for the 304’s to give fuller color spectrum during flower. Wasn’t sure if that was good or not...

    Great feedback thank you! What would the total wattage / watt per soft be with those drivers?
