I've hooked up my build. Ao far with a few hours running the temperature on the boards is low. I haven't measured anything, voltage drops, current, etc. I'm happy with the blast I have now compared to my household led strips! Thank you guys for your input! Let's hope this rig brings the...

Hey, I've calculated the 19.5V straight. Equals 97.5 which is just 91% of the driver main load of 107V. I believe that the driver is cable of handling the voltage drops. My concern is actually more regarding the split of the current! Will the driver give 700mA equally ? Or those V drops you...

Thank you for your reply. Feel better now knowing I won't burn my build. You are right, I've been conservative with the driver... But it arrives today so for now I'll be having the strips running at their typical values. Maybe in the future I'll upgrade. I'm lighting a 2.6x2.6 space. I...

Hey everyone. I'm in need of some help, please!! Story goes, I've finally purchased some good stuff to do my own light build. I got my hands on some bridgelux 560mm EB's gen 2 and a meanwell driver. The strips are rated to work typically at 700mA @ 19.5V and can support a maximum of 1400mA @...

Hey everyone, Just wanted to show my new setup... I've been growing for the past two years in a 40x40 (cm) with some success. Been a DIY adventure that I've enjoyed very much. But normally, space was tiny and I wanted to run more than one plant at a time. So I upgraded to a 80x80x160 (cm)...

Well, reading the thread it seems you are doing everything ok and other posters have given you good tutorials to crack them open. Maybe reach out to RQS and see if they can help, maybe by sending new ones! Good luck. My RQS seeds always worked out well.

Buy new seeds. Personally I'm a client of Amsterdam genetics and royal queen seeds. I'm from Europe.

Seems like those seeds font want anything to do with you!! Get some fresh genetics (if you're able to). My advice.

If you trully believe that the filter works better if the air is sucked and want to still keep it outside, you can build a box to house it and vent the box from the cab Maxime the space inside while doing the scrubbing. I've done it both ways and believe it works better when the air is sucked...

For me that solution is the easiest way to go. My led "driver" powers the fans also. :D

All right! Well then for the sake of learning I'll give it a shot at one of the tall Cola I have, to start, I understand I need both down to lower the lights :) Do it slowly and in many states if necessary! Got it!!! Thank you.

Hey there, Thanks for such comprehensive tutorial for snapping stems. I wonder if this is the HST I hear about... Anyways, I'm 5 weeks into flower (9 - 10 weeks according to breeder for ripe) do you guys think it's that worth it now? Will those two tops damage the growth of the other less...

Thank you for your input. I've always wondered if the temps probe was in place. Will follow your advice. As for space, I wish I had a 1x1 meter. I actually have a secret jardin hydroshoot 0.4x0.4 meters. About the canopy, I've tried to do what you're saying but the stem broke. One less...

Thanks Micro! I'm happy with this run. Only my third attempt. Regarding the height my plants are between 50 to 60 cm. But I use the rest of the height to keep my carbon filter. I reckon if I only had one plant I could've maintained all the canopy at 50 cm. And it's a Sativa!! I believe your...

Hey everyone, I'm happy you started such thread. I have a 40x40x140 cm tent (1.2x.1.2.4.5 feet) and I light it just like you. Currently I have around 12.5 meters of similar LED home strips (12 volt). I don't know the total lumen but i'm pulling around 150 watts from the wall. The temperature is...
