Too much blue light in flower is a common error. What color temperature is your light?

LEDs have been the obvious winner for years now if you really look at overall features and capabilities. Plus, LED is undeniably the present/future and HID is clearly the past. It really seems nuts to dump the money into fancy premade lights though when there is so much DIY gear out there that...

Here's my DIY QB96 setup. I know its a little amateur but I didn't use any measurements to create it

There are people who grow in PC cases, so I have no idea why 3' clearance seems so impossible. Look up PC case grows if you want to see how the real micro growers do it. With the right clones, kept under the right height, you could run a sea of green perpetual in there just growing little lollipops

I still haven't gotten around to the side-lighting yet, but I finally got my reflector-heatsink done: It is a little rough because I literally used no measurements during the entire production of it, but I am still happy about how it turned out. I can't overstate how ridiculously...

Thanks for your help so far NukaKola(I love Fallout!) Those Delta drivers look fairly nice but I don't know how they compare to Mean Well. I'm still getting crap for calling them "ballasts" lol... I can't help that I'm old school and worked with ballasts for decades.

I was thinking about using those acrylic tube guards made for fluoro tubes. I might cut them in half and attach them over the top. Otherwise I may put some steel grid wire around them(if I can't get the tubes to work).

I dialed down both all the way and then adjusted IO first and then tweaked the vo a little bit. Maybe I need to recheck things! Still will be really nice once I get my reflector/heatsink added. That should add a lot of surface area for heat dissipation. I thought about mounting this on a big...

Thanks for the reply. I am running the QB96 at 52V right now(so about 90-100W), and honestly I don't like this heatsink. It really isn't as good as it should be for this. I am going to add a reflector soon that will significantly expand the radiant cooling area, but its just a bit annoying that...

Hello. I am currently trying to get my new cabinet set up and I have added an HLG QB96 V2 Elite overhead and want to surround the plants with some strips. I need something that can run very close to the plants and has a high efficacy. I am considering either LT-Q562A strips or...
