Thanks! I've bookmarked that link. The only tricky part I'd have is that it needs a 5-30v DC power source, and the fans in my cabinet are both 120v AC. I might be able to run a line from the 12v DC power supply in my veg cabinet though. I'll have to ponder this for a bit.

How hard are you driving the cobs? I'd say you could add some deep reds, but I haven't seen any that are spec'd to run at more than 700ma.

I also found some Cree XTE Royal Blues that are spec'd up to 1500 ma - I'm running six of them in series with my Vero 29s. http://www.rapidled.com/cree-xt-e-royal-blue-led/

One more question for you Java - what volt/ammeter are you using in your fixture? I've looked at a few on ebay, but i'm not sure which ones are good and which ones are junk.

Err, captainmorgan hit 1.7 gpw a few weeks ago on his grow. https://www.rollitup.org/t/another-cree-cxa3070-diy-thread.824364/page-30#post-11646931

I think the 4000k is a good choice - just looking at the spectrum chart it's the most balanced of the Veros. From what I've read the 3000k V29s v2s have quite a bit less blue than the Cree 3000k and prolly should be supplemented with some extra blue, but the 4000k should be really good all...

Thanks, loads of great information in this forum - hopefully the knowledge sharing will continue. It's fun to be growing mj again too. I grow loads of vegetables, flowers, and fruit trees all around my yard, but mj is still my favorite plant to grow. It's such a unique plant with the way it...

Thanks nvhak49, I saw your post about your cabinet build in another thread, and i think we will have similar setups. Your's will be a bit more efficient than mine since you'll have 4 veros running softer - I think you'll really be happy with them. I've dimmed mine about 25% due to the hot...

Flowering Day 1 Set the timer to 12/12 last night, so today is the official start to this flowering run. The Sour D on the left is the smallest of the plants, but it's supposed to continue growing and stretching 4 weeks into flower, so I'm hoping she'll finish around 2' tall. Satori is the brute...

Count me in. I've got 2 sizes of party cups laying around the garage I use for growing seedlings, and I'll be damned if one size is 9oz and the other is 18oz. Shit. Guess I'll have to buy another sleeve of cups. Wasn't planning on joining, but after @bicit invited me and I read through 12 pages...

Thanks guys for the positive feedback. :razz: About 3 months ago I didn't know a COB from a hole in the ground - I did some google searching on LEDs thinking blurple was still the way to go, and then stumbled my way in this forum where guys like Supra are taking things to the next level. Very...

Nice to see some other Mandala love on RIU. Satori is one of my favs, I've just started a grow journal in the LED section (https://www.rollitup.org/t/vero-18s-29s-and-a-cabinet-full-of-stanky-goodness.877088/). I've got 1 Satori in the mix along with a Sour D and Fire OG - it's a test grow under...

Here's a few more pics Blue Dream, Sour D and Satori that will be mother plants, along with the Fire OG cutting that will also be a mother plant. Tomatoes, basil and pepper plants in the organic veg garden My cantaloupe vines that have run amok and are threatening to overrun the...

It’s been about 5 years since I’ve started an mj grow. I used to use a 250 HPS in a stealth closet grow on the East coast, but after moving to NorCal I decided to start a legal medical grow at our new home and I’m scrapping HPS and going LED. The new grow space is semi-stealth in my garage, with...

Posi, Back when I lived in NC I used to grow Russian comfrey, and used the leaves for ferts in my organic vegie garden. You can order root/crown cuttings online of Russian Comfrey bocking 14, which is a sterile version of comfrey, so it flowers but the seed it produces is sterile so it won't...

Sorry Twilight, but nobody here wants your light....

Look, the troll thinks he's funny

Ok, here's the lights I just built. The flowering space is in a used office cabinet I got from a used office furniture shop. The light is bolted to the ceiling, but I have 2"x32" strips of aluminum in the outer slots of the heat sink. The aluminum strips create a 'tunnel' for the air to flow...
