With the lights on full at 80% the grow room tents gets to about 82 degrees from 65 degrees base, also with no fans on the lights they get to about 110-120 degrees after 12 hrs

just comparing the exposure values for fun on my mounted camera, dual bloomspects at 270 watts had a exposure time of 1/160s Meanwhile quantum boards at 220 watts have a exposure time of 1/370s ! And thats not even matching the wattage of the bloomspects... same iso / f stop This obviously...

Ok all hooked up! Sure is nice to be able to see the plant in natura light!

Ready for action! Here are my 2 tips 1) instead of mounting the driver to the panels, its much easier to just have a longer wire from the driver, that way you can keep the driver off the panels (which is most the weight) and also you can keep the driver outside of the tent. 2) Definetely put...

Haha yea those guides helps so much! Ill keep yall posted how it goes tomorrow... I want to say in the next couple years it will get even better / cheaper for leds!

As far as i know thought a 550watt HLG Quantum is supposed to be the equalivent of a hps1000w fixture so if its 2x the price maybe not so bad? At least then its half the powerbill also...

Haha yea what do you use hps?

Hey Cold$moke! Yea I just wanted something a bit more power efficient than the LED's I had, and I noticed horticultural lighting group is starting to have discounts so after reading some really good reviews (especially LED gardener) I went with these. I went with 3000k cause its good for flower...

Hooking these bad boys up tomorrow!!!

Pics! Running on just one blokmspect while i wait for quantum boards...

Hey! Well from what I researched it appeared to me that per watt the qb288’s with a meanwell driver were about 2x as efficient as my current lights per watt But what has changed recently is that the qb288’s have come down in price, I was able to buy two for 185$ with heatsinks and 70$ for the...

Well I took a left turn today...ordered two qb288s from horticultural lighting group and a meanwell 250w driver... So sorry no grow report on the bloomspects ( which i feel are capable! ) Ill update when i recieve the lights!

I was doing some maintenance and accidentally forgot to turn the lights back on last night, so the plant is getting 36hrs of darkness. Anyways Im starting to see white hairs forming which seems like its the beginning of flower! Other good news, clones are starting to root!

Wow nice progress!

Thanks guys very useful info! Im going to so a little bit of clean up on the leaves this week expecially on the bottom leaves that arent as healthy Ill try the peroxide also! i think its a good fit w my growing since my goal is to keep costs down so buying bateria + a chiller wouldnt make...
