Man that shop had a temperature controller for 35 bucks. Looked like it’d hook to an ac unit maybe and then just click it on whenever it got too warm? Seemed neat. Needed a PH controller but they didn’t have one.

Can’t get someone to do my dwc if I’m just now trying to figure it out
Good lord I’d never ask my ole lady to tend to my DWC. Not even my soil plants lol.

I asked her to count my ethos seeds and she said there was 15.

There was 28. I about had a heart attack when she told me “how many were there...”

Never again.

Man. In my state you can pay a couple hundred bucks and get a hemp license. To grow inside. But open enrollment is closed for the year. Damnit. Just found that out today. Some dude spent like a thousand bucks at the shop on like a tent and light and a bunch of CBD clones. Poor guy buying CMH.... not to say they’re bad. But damn.
CMH are considered top tier like quantum board lighting, they have a crazy CRI of 92/93 (how close they mimic sunlight. The sun is a perfect score 100)

Schplakken at GC uses 4 of them (315w lights) in his 4x4 and produces monsters every single time

No shit? Well why I have I only ever seen about two people ever use CMH? Not to discredit what you’re saying. But it’s either MH, HPS, or LED. Very VERY rarely have I seen anyone use CMH. I love the look though. It’s a tiny ass bulb.

They’re the newest tubes?

CMH (ceramic metal hydride) is a hybrid technology - it's based off of MH (metal hydride). You can sometimes see it sold as an LEC (Light emitting ceramic). It's about as new as quantum boards but I can't speak to your rarity. When I first started and did my research I had no idea QB's existed. Little bit of counter-anecdote there for ya lol.

Ultimately what attracted me to QB's was the same performance without the MAJOR heat issues. I no longer needed to keep the light in a giant enclosed hood - i literally just push my qb120 stack against the wall when i'm ready to hang my girls to dry lol

i remember at the start i was pumping from a standalone AC unit into 6" ducting and ducting the cold air straight into the light hood to keep things under control.

Plus qbs have all the advantages of solid-state and digital, and you can supplement for similar spectrum... tubes started dying out after WWII, just now reaching grow lights.. you guys picked the right lights...
