Amy Gardner’s High Brix Dreams

Lady.....:hugs:.....:passitleft:......:ganjamon:



sent from my DeLorean...in the future!
 
Thanks @Doc Bud ! :high-five: QB’s all the way for me now :) Between them and the DBHBB I’m feeling pretty snobbish right now ;)... just imagine how bad that could get if I actually grow something with them :battingeyelashes:
 
After seeing what you did outside I'm sure you will live up to the expectations of your setup!
 
Nice light. One minor addition I would consider is a cord of length to place the ballast outside the tent if your ever worried about heat during a few special months of the year.

Or it might not be an issue. My ballast is on frame as well, but when I get new connectors I will move it outside.
 
Nice work Amy, well planned and executed. Building your own stuff is always rewarding, I am always doing it myself, not always because of cost, but for the satisfaction of a job well done and done well. Hats off to you.
 
Done!

Hey Yeti! :welcome: I’m glad you could join us! Yay for diy.
It’s funny actually, if I had built this 3 years ago while still fully able bodied, it would’ve been rougher looking because I’d have just screwed it all together fast. Because I couldn’t do that, I had to treat it like making myself a kit that I could assemble easily buy hand ... this really helps the good looks :battingeyelashes:

Yes - I thought about that. But mainly because I am guaranteed to have earthed the frame by putting the driver on it and being a first time builder of a light (I’ve built cabins and wired audio but I’ve never built an electrical device), I decided to play it safe. I don’t think this is going to get too hot...

Say, what’s your practice with germination? Do you have the light on before the seed breaks the soil?

There are differing schools of thought on this...

:Namaste:

I learned everything I know about growing from Doc basically so yes I have the light on. I soak the seed about 24 hours then put into a 1 gallon pot with a pinch of roots! powder. I germinate under a T5 that is lowered to about 10-12 inches above the soil. I put the 1 gallon on a seed heat mat until the seed breaks ground which is usually 2-5 days after sowing it.

Great start, look at you go Amy! You are using steel or aluminum? Looks like extruded aluminum but maybe Australian metal looks different :laugh:

Looking forward to your finished DIY LED panel.

Peace
