480W & 720W LED Grow - Land of Clovers

that's very efficient TT.

Do you think it would work in one of my tents with the total air volume being exchanged at least 1-2x per minute?

Do you reduce or shut down your exhaust fan during lights out?

My fans always go off at lights out but I think the emitters will actually work better with air flow over them. If you can run intake air over them it would probably be good.

I just finished setting up the second grow space and was about to put some plants in but I can wait a day or two and run a test with the exhaust on full.

Right now I just set it with just the circulation fan on.

bro i am all over that! how big is ur room that gets raised 10F from the light?

The space is 42"x42"x52". Thanks for the reps but I can't claim credit for the idea. I got it from the Clowns. They used it in a grow cabinet in an unheated New England garage. Slappy posted some information for me that also includes pictures of using the emitter mounted into a duct T.

Growing with CFLs in very limited space

Got to love those wacky Clowns.

i just got one ill let you guys know how it works. its been on for about 2min and the bulb is blazing hot room went up 2F so far with exhaust fan off. room is 6'x12'x8'.

i could only get 1 right now for the black 150w bulb and fixture cost me around $60 out the door.

i have it in my big room right now, but i am thinking it would be best to add it to my tent since those girls are flowering right now, what you guys think? i am thinking the colder temps will hurt the flowering plants more then the plants that are still in veg right?

I think I paid a about $70 for emitter, fixture and thermostat from Amazon.

The garage was just at 58 and the space was 70 with the emitter and circulation fan. No light.

I just switched off the circulation fan and switched on the exhaust fan at full speed.

The ceramic heat emitters for reptiles do not emit any infrared. I have 2 bearded dragons and each cage has one on them.

just IR heat not color.

it just emits heat with no light

when you say IR I think of those lights in the hotel bathrooms, the red lights

Exo Terra Heat Wave Lamp Ceramic Heat Emitter (40 W)

but yes

This is a radient heat source and creates a natural sun-like heat with a uniform pattern. The long wave infrared heat produced by this emitter will warm reptiles very efficiently

so far so good, my room when from 76.1F with no exhaust to 74.5F with 6" exhaust running full speed with stand fan mixing air and lights on. the exhaust has been running for a while to. this is also in my big room, for my tent this will be plenty of heat.

These emiters dont have any light comming out?Thats a good ideal I just checked them out on amazon for the bundle of the emiter,clip lamp,and the thermostat with 2 outputes to controll up to 2 emiters 500watts max for 67 dallars.

Garage dropped to 56. Space at 66 with no lights and full exhaust fan. My space is fairly small so I don't normally run the fan at full. Usually dialed down to half speed. Still that 10 degrees makes a big difference. Performance is a little bit better in the space full of plants because the plant buckets help maintain a level temperature.

whats everyones preference ?

grinding meds up for bowls or packing with whole nugs?

ive always packed with nugs --- i find it cherrys longer and when you grind it burns too fast and hot.

Depends on the nugs really, if it's too dense I'll grind em up if not I'll just break it apart with my fingers. I only smoke personal bowls, aka snaps, so every bowl packed will be burned fully and pulled through. If any smoke comes back out of the bowl or any left in the chamber I feel like I wasted some.

Ya I'm pretty anal about it.

i just use my fingers, i think you lose more THC using a grinder because my grinder and the departments and the bottom one is where all the THC falls and its allot lost, but with a grinder like that its nice because you just scrap it up and add it to the top of ur bowl. i never put big nugs in it thought i like it broke up and burn faster to get to the point faster.lol.

Hey Irish any updates on the heat lamp.Night and day plus lows and highs compared to temp outside of tent or grow room.
Casey jones looking good..They came back nicely.

I hardly ever smoke any more but on ocasion.You know work protocall.But when I do I find it best to just use your fingers.Peal it apart put it to your nose and savor it...camp on it for a moment...(TILL YOUR FELLOW MED BUDDIES GET PISSED...LOL)then rip it...IDK lol Im just kidding but you waste alot and degrade flavor IMO when grinding.But if you have plenty its a neet little toy for grinding down and screening the thc.
