    Guide me to the Light....

    Yo Nizza, I hear you. But believe it or not the vertical space wouldn't be such a problem. My screen starts very close to the ground and then I install drippers and run a semi auto feed thing where I just turn on the pump. The distance between the canopy and the light would be the same as...

    Jesus, I'm so fuckin glad you said that. I was talking to Mark from cutter last night for quite a while... fell asleep twice lol... Foiled by timezones I was Anyway, he wants a basic sketch of my grow space before he puts the order in, which I think is a pretty solid thing to do. I was ready...

    Just when I thought I'd closed my last alibaba tab... Funny enough I have just received a quote from Forest over there for a few of these. Are they better than what I can get on digikey/cutter?

    Sorry my mistake, it's the 3500k 90CRi that's in kit form. Better than the 4K?

    Go to the bottom right of that page and check it out in 16 strip kit form. That's one of my options I just linked for a kit.

    Alright, if you say fire, I pull the trigger on these kits from cutter. Let me know what you think of the available options and, obviously, feel free to critique and advise me where I could/should customise it. The option is there for me to change components I believe, but otherwise this is...

    Think it'd be a good all rounder? I just want to say I don't mind Guinea pigging this. I suppose that'll be the interesting point for you lot. I could run a light with the strips you posted earlier in the thread, and make the others from other strips. Would be interesting to see how they...

    Anyway, enough sidetracking from me... Thoughts on this strip, spectrum wise. CRI is 90: https://www.cutter.com.au/product/ssk-1560-3090nic/

    Oh and what are your thoughts on the Growmau5 cobs? They seem pretty legit and customisable.

    Oh right, I'll get on them then and see what's what But overall, a good company to deal with? Their prices seem really good, really good though, compared to what I've been researching lately

    Now, I found that cutter does kits... and I'm thinking wtf... did I miss something? There are ready to go kits available on their site, pretty much exactly what I need, and the shipping is only £80 Can someone just clarify for me what the situation is there? I feel like there must be some...

    Yea nice post @Rocket Soul Very informative and clears a lot of the debris I've noticed myself that some things don't add up regarding spectrum and what is "supposed" to be. Like I say, I looked at the spectrum chart of the agro version of the 315 cmh I thought it looked decent for veg...

    I'll be going veg to bloom with them mate. I'm happy with the veg growth I get out of the agro version of the 315cmh tbh. If I can get an LED to match that kind of growth with a better spread of light I'll be more than happy. Has anyone vegged under a cmh and led, and if so How do they compare?

    Guide me to the Light....

    Hmm. Confused. So, doesn't the efficiency difference of each bar remain the same as they're dimmed? I mean isn't a more efficient strip, still more efficient when it's dialed down? Or Is there a point at which they kind of balance out? If so why is that? So this sounds better than running...

    Guide me to the Light....

    Ok, so in the spirit of the thread, I'll try and ask all questions that clear any grey areas. Can Samsungs not be run soft? Why is this strip better for that than the Samsung/BXEB for example? What would stop me running another board soft and close?

    Okay, so.. the very tip of the apex is about 6.5ft Now my lights hang either side, about half way down the slanted sides. Is that a bit clearer? Just imagine a pitched roof. The lights hang half way down the pitch. Simples. So the strip itself would be about 4ft from the ground

    Do you mean 2 lights linked, from one driver? Oh, and he said give me an idea of your driver parameter. So, if I'm looking to run a (roughly) 450w fixture with the option to dim, using a recommended amount of strips (give me an idea of optimum in your opinions) what should I be looking for?
