Maybe once we figure out the right spectrums it could be as simple as TopLed sending you the replacement COB units for your panel, its not hard to switch them outKind of regretting getting a COB light now after seeing your results. I will see how it works out but may have to eventually get some supplemental lights for different spectrums. Well this is just the beginning of my growing, hopefully, career.
Thanks brotherIm speaking only about the COB panel bro, from what im seeing in other journals the Mars II and the reflector panels from TopLed seem to work great thats why I want to try one for myself, It would be great to save some coin when I upgrade to all ledI am so glad i have waited on the lights. I am going to add led into my room but honestly I know there is still some kinks to be worked out but these A51's are looking prime. And with jon's word I can feel comfortable saying they are worth every penny more. Would love to see topled figure it out and keep the price the same. Maybe i will buy both the mars 5w and one of the a51's and compare myself. I know I need to start learning the tech soon or else I will not be a well rounded indoor gardener imo. this is the future so better get on the train.
And thank you Jon for your continued friendship and support on here, your the man!!!! +reps bru
Maybe 5 then, man that would be a solid led panel covering the whole tent, very cool bro, yea veg only is the way to go if your running seperate veg and flower rooms, you could cover alot more space if all those flower spectrum chips were veg spectrumits about 8'x4'. i hang filter so use every bit of space. i'll see when i get them and i'll just jam the tent full lol. never thought of asking for veg only light! good idea mate.
Thanks brotherYea it was a rough start but I think im on the right track with my plan for next round, same size pots, smaller plants, more supersoil, its just a matter of figuring out how much soil it takes to finish them, then all I gotta do is give them water when they need it and watch the magic happen
Yep thats the plan bro, there was no point in topdressing this round, they ran out of food while still in veg lol..I going full perpetual next round, 3 zones of 4 plants 3 weeks apart, so they will be in the same 10 gallon pots with twice as much ss and the plants will be smaller, I think its going to work out just fine.The mix seems to be great judging by the Timewrecks, just gotta figure out the ratios nowLike anything new it's gunna take some tweaking.
But you're handling the lurning curve and documenting it all so well without hiding anything.
Wouldn't worse case scenario be you'd have to top dress mid way through flower for those amendments that have already been used up?
now it goes on to say that led lights are like intense lasers, very focussed so theirs no scatter and because led manufactorers make their panels small with the led's close together your canopy will be small but the penetration deep.
it was saying the leds are way to intense so cant be kept as close to the plants as hid lights, then in big letters its says after all the number 1 problem is to much light. (this might be why jon and bid was not getting the fast growth rate due to the light been to intense, so i think jon is right about having the led 4 or 5 ft above the plants as if the lights to intense then the plants suffer and growth is slow)
As far as I know you can't use lenses with a COB light bro, the diodes are placed much to close together and the chips are mounted directly to a circuit board. I dont think its an overdose of one spectrum or the other, the reflector seems to spread it out pretty evenly but more a lack of spectrums, if red and blue were all that was needed to grow dank then most led panels would only have red and blue spectrums.I may be a total noob to growing, but I know me physics, and them problems could be fixed with some lenses. Concaves on the top to diffuse the light within the lens and a convex on the bottom to focus it in the right direction again. You'd maintain the overall output of the LEDs but spread it around better and no one place would get overdosed with one spectrum. The more concave areas on the top the better it would be, preferably one per LED.

Thanks Mcloadie, just taking it easy today broGood weed jon! I hope you and your crew are all fine
Thanks Mcloadie, just taking it easy today bro
I F'n hate grow stores..........when I see what they do....just selling random shit to anyone they can talk out of their money.
if its chopped up into sand it only takes a day or 2, after that cure it like weed for a week burping the jars daily the flavor really popsJon
How long do you "dry" bubble? I say "dry" but just touching it melts it
