17 oz. from a 400w? of low-maintenance, non-hydro, non-FIM/Topped plants? Dude thats 1.19 GPW, I dont think a 400w HPS can do that very easily ; + heat benefits ; + will last as long as any 2-3 HPS bulbs. let me know if you have seen different, but i think it would have to be with a lot more...
cobkits.com, so far, has quoted me a price of plug-and-play 4x1825 citizen COB kit at $540. I need to frame it so maybe $560 total. I can run them very efficiently at 100watts each, so above results would be great, but I hope to eventually get them to 125+ watts each with proper cooling in my...

also try cobkits.com and email the guy. new guys on the block are actually not CREE but Citizen. I may get a 4XCOB build myself mate, for a 4x4.
haha I've had space before, but not now. This will be a tent grow. It was easier to go unnoticed 10 years ago believe it or not, outside.
which CAN be fun at times when you have to use a ladder to get to the tops :)
But bro, the title of the post shows that this is exactly the issue -...
@[835584:@mauricem00] hey man I appreciate your LED contribution. So, you ran Citizen COB leds and only got 0.5gpw? That seems poor, why was that?
The guy I'm talking with from the website claims that much higher GPW is possible when running the 300w max units at lower wattages (my most recent...
Update: I think I may be going for a half-DIY setup - it is built for me, I just need to frame the 4 COBS in a way I like.

Pricing is just unbeatable compared to Timber.
For ~$500 I will have a 4-COB setup, dimmable. Each with their own driver. Each COB can go to a max of...
One of my fave recent grow journals, and a simple setup. Great example of what YOU could do. This guy went above the holy 1.0, and with 1000s I think you could do similarly.

I have finished 3 outdoor grows on a much larger scale (male problems, deer problems, skunk problems - actual skunk lol)
I remember my first hydro indoor grow setup several years ago. So exciting. Got about 5 ounces off of a 250HPS (no MH for veg) and about 2-3 ounces off a 150HPS (1 plant, no...
IMHO the biggest issue with taste is that growers are lazy towards the end of flowering and do not flush enough/do not flush at all, and just go nutrients 100% all the way to harvest, which creates harsh taste. #2 is that most people don't know how to jar cure or maintain flavor and just dry the...
Given responses here and in my other more-open question thread, I think the only competition for the 300-watt COB setup in a 3x3 tent would be a 315-watt CMH @33000 lumens......thoughts?
Thanks @dirtpower, always good to know for the future, something I haven't ever seen on a forum. So, even for bigger spaces, never get a dimmable 600w etc? curious.
Based on responses I am unsure if I should shrink the grow area to 3x3 in a standard budget grow tent.
That will obviously...
