    What do you mean by low ambient? I can pull fresh cold air into the veg room in winter. But the flower room will have co2 so id like to keep it pretty sealed, so the a/c would be running full blast all year

    brand new start.

    for sure. i want to run 240 as much as possible since it pulls less amps. i also just run the lines a licensed electrician will be hooking it all to the box

    brand new start.

    the 240 will be in next. all of the 110 outlets are for fans/humidifier/dehu inline fans etc.. all of the boxes for fans are on their own circuit so they can all be easily switched off i don’t quite know how to run the 240 yet because i’m not sure how a room full of leds should be powered. i am...

    I am setting up a new grow and thought i would share my progress. so far i have upgraded the electrical to 250amps. removed the 8x8 tile and most of the mastic underneath it. framed in the 2 rooms and have ran most of the 110 electrical for the rooms. 36 electrical boxes between the two rooms...

    Powering LEDs

    yeah. i get that. so would you just plug all the drivers into the titan controller individually? I know there are led controllers that will take care of the timer/spectrum. so the titan would not be used for it’s timer and will provide the drivers constant current? i don’t think the led drivers...

    Powering LEDs

    Hey Team. I have no experience with LED lights yet. I am setting up a new build and would like to use LEDs. How would i power around 10k watts of these lights. Do leds have their own power light controllers? Or should i just use a regular helios titan like i would with HID ballasts. thanks...

    Fresh air inlet.

    What is 'fresh air'? Are you trying to pull in air just to replace co2 the plants have used? why not hang a co2 bag or portable canister instead? I have a 6 inch inline fan connected to a temp sensor to dump the air through 6 inch tubing out a window when my temps get too high. This pulls in...

    You can veg under HPS but you wont get much blue light so your plants might stetch more and you might have more internodal space

    Light System Recommendations Please and Thanks

    tents are cheap, easy to keep clean, already come with vents and are already lightproof. You can most certainly use the closet, but you will destroy it and will likely get better results in the tent. If you only have $300 total to spend you probably wont be able to get quality lights. Have...

    Light System Recommendations Please and Thanks

    you will need to make your environment as stable as possible. seal off the closet completely if you can to make it light proof. adjust your VPD as best you can to be around .75-1 based on the temp/humidity you get. it would really help to put at least a vent for fresh air in and one out with a...

    i am starting everything absolutely from scratch. i just finished framing the rooms. and am currently using HID's in tents. Could you recommend some strips or QB's or a good place to get them? I was told, or read that the cobs penetrate better than boards/strips, is this no longer true?

    Sir, I would like very much to DIY some LED lights. I really dont know much about it, but im trying to learn. Would you recommend still using Cree3590's or would you go with something newer like the luminus cxm32 gen4's, the vero's or something else entirely? Thanks for your time,
