Thanks man! Im very lucky! She was really happy to read that
That's unbelievable, bleached the bottom of the plants lol. That's some damn powerful lights. Can you dim them on like a light dimmer or something?

Insane! I couldnt believe the penetration. The lights dim and are dimmed now. Each pair of rails go from 35w to ~365w somewhere close to that but the last like ~45w is just on the driver. The lights dont get brighter so i dont crank it all the way up
I never thought about what the driver pulls. That really makes it that much more impressive.
Amazing piece of kit. I bet you couldn't lol. I love how you can dim them through such a large range, that's fantastic. Wow so you can't even see a difference in brightness?

Its really hard to say especially without a par meter but the last like 15 to 45w isnt very noticeable in light output but i need to play around with it more.
Yeah that makes sense, we probably can't notice it with our eyes. You'd need to see it on the meter, yeah! Such a sick peice if kit.
Really nice and the ladies looking nice man!! Now that I have more vertical height to play with, Im ready to grow bigger plants man! I saw you mentioned something about living in SoCal. Let me know if you ever get down to Murrieta/Temecula area! We got the wine vineyards down here if you and the wife ever want a local to show you around .

Hey thanks! They have turned around a lot! I think these are the biggest so far. Its hard to say because i had a scrog for my biggest harvest.
Hey thanks for the offer! If we are ever down that way i will have to send a pm
BF, .
Great looking tent! Full of healthy girls .
Time to flip and get some meds.
I know what you mean about the dispensary crap.
When I was working in Colorado. kept trying to compare to Amsterdam and other Cannabis friendlier countries.
Sooooo disappointed.
.
Oh! This might help you with your light.
Do you have a single adjust pot or 2 pots on your rail?

It was on Amazon. They have a ton. I got the AC 20amp version. In AC they have 20 amp and 50amp from what i remeber.
I thought you were using "Timber" COB system.
Did you add the meter or, build your own system?

Lol no i didnt go through timber. I got a 12 light set up i built myself with parts from rapid. I probably would have paid considerably more if i didnt build it myself. For my diy setup i did remote divers and set up the junction box with meters. Was a lot of fun to build up! But i recommend qboards
Got it!
Everyone's journal's move so damn fast...good thing I can still remember shit with a little proding.lol
That's right I mentioned Horticultural group for a kit.
Been looking around and found these boards.
I've ordered a couple of "Sunboards".
A driver to run them.
I'll throw them together and see how they work.
Need to get an inline meter still.

Ive seen those sunboards and the wavy boards. Very interesting stuff! I think thats what buck went with? The hlg kit looks so easy though and has everything you need in the kit. Your gonna love the boards. Are you putting them on a heatsink? Those inline meters were pretty inexpensive on amazon. I love those things. Cant wait to see it all built up
I was going to put them on extrusion plate heat sink like the horticulture boards.
E-mail between the builder of the boards convinced me to go without and try it.
These boards are putting out 880ppfd across the board 22inchx22inch at 20inches above canopy. At 75w, 2100mA.
The boards are rated a 100w up to 2100mA without active or passive cooling.
He is running 8 boards in a 4x4.
400w draw with very impressive results.
