Has anyone used these bulbs alongside their leds? And what was your experience with then? I’ve just bought 12 of the fixtures for my grow. Will be installing them in a couple of weeks

Just looked at those. Similar to what I’m looking for but not exactly I don’t think. That looks like it’s just for drying. It’s not air tight so cannot be converted to a cure chamber straight after the dry has finished But i assume if the cedar/mahogany works for drying it will work for my curing

I can’t find anything specific about it. Been searching for a good few hours now. The timber frame is made of pine, and if I get plywood that would most likely be pine too. Everything is pine round here. I am also trying to find the best humidity and temp to Maintain. I may also add a...

I’m not finding much information on cure “rooms” so to speak the methods I keep reading about for tobacco are outdoors in the sun, or in open barns. I wonder if a cigar humidor is more of what I should be looking into?

Been reading about Tabacco curing and getting a bit confused as they describe curing in the sun/ open ended barns. Doesn’t sound like something that would work on cannabis surely they would dry way to quick

Do you know what kind of wood I would need?

I’m planning to up my cure game in the next few weeks I plan to upgrade my drying room. Currently I have a custom made tent in a room with a timber frame where I hang my buds. It’s vented with neg pressure and I have an AC unit, dehumidifier and a humidifier in the room where the tent...

My main fixture has 380 cobs wired in parallel I don’t mind wiring trimming buds really annoys me though. The bigger the buds I can get mean less trimming per lb so every penny and minute spent on increasing yields is worth it

Well I just ordered 200 4000k 1 ft q strips and 100 3000k 1ft q strips. Got a good deal on them. Need to decide what to do about heat sinks for them next

Got 8 spare only gonna use 3 more though for now. To boost my flower room to 5000w and veg room to 1400w My ppfd is 1500 everywhere in my flower room apart from the edges where the overlap drops off. Going to put these strips around the perimeter of my light fixture to give the edges a boost to...

Ok great cheers. I’ll aim for 54 strips per driver and try and work out the best configuration tonight

So was I right when I said the 16.7a will be tripled whilst the voltage bumped down by a third?

I’m still confused by that led gardener link tbh. The drivers max current will be overrated if I put 54 strips on it. Unless the current is only split on parallel strings. So On the 3 series strings the 3 parallel strings get a total of 12v and 16.7a but that means we have just tripled the...

Actually I’m confused... 18 strips at 0.92a and 12v = 11w per strip. The driver max output is 600w 18 x 11 = only 198 w But if we have 54 strips at 920ma we are massively over the max current

18 strips per driver? Do you mean 18 strips per parallel string? 54 strips per driver?

My thinking for the first driver would be to do 60 strips with 3 parallel strings in series. Not sure if the leds will automatically only pull 1a or if I will need to permanently dim the driver for that though

Drivers cost a bomb. I’d rather put in the extra time wiring than wasting these drivers. I have two options I think. Use f series and let the driver automatically go into constant current mode and get around 400 out of 600w per driver or use the q series.. strangely the q series works out...

So basically from what I’ve read when the driver detects a current draw more than its rated curent it switches to constant current instead and starts lowering the voltage. What I don’t understand is how it detects a higher current draw. I always understood that when wiring in parallel the...

I think this may be the explanation of how the driver I have can work? It says it has a constant current mode? Don’t know how that would work atm though

I’m considering it if anyone else can confirm my drivers will work. Have another 8 drivers sat here from when I ordered too many for my first cob build. Want to put them to work
