Kannabia has some awesome strains. They have the Mataro Blue in an auto also, I think its called Gnomo. Black Domina is one of my favorite Indica hybrids and they use it in a lot of their crosses.

That my friend is a damned fine plant!
Busted my cherry on that one!!! First everything on that grow,started with cfls, went to cheap blurple type light, to qb288!!!@Budzbuddah will tell you,he helped me out alot... I think you may have come around the same time... So I was gonna try some Chinese boards cause I found a sweet deal, but in my days of dealing I learned that too much sugar is not good for you... So I went to hlg and found a double qb288 v2 setup scratch and dent for 162... I just need a driver to run 3 288s... Where can I find one???

On the hlg site they have guides for each board and recommendations of drivers based on board wiring. You can buy them direct from mouser, digikey, or many other places.

I think that some of the info is outdated and specified for the version 1 boards. The newer boards are more efficient and require slightly less voltage to run. I bought 320-1750Bs for running sets of 3 QB288s but I think that I should have gone with 320-2100Bs to more closely match the voltage output of the driver and for higher output capability.

Hey I posted awhile back about trying to build a DIY version of the HLG-550 but no one helped me :cry:. They no longer sell the slate 4 thats used to make the 550 right? Im completely new to building my own qb but I have the HLG-300. Any help would be appreciated. Also, are the deep reds worth it? Should I get the ones that are coming out in Nov?

You have the 320-2100? That will power 4 well and you can turn it down to 1450ma. If you use 2x the triple heat sinks that will work well for 4 boards. As for far red, you could just add in a couple of the growmau5 far red pucks from rapid led

Phillips head. I think the 3rd from the left. You can feel it click in pretty tight when it fits. Use your phone light to shine down the hole, will make it a lot easier

thanks man
