Ahh... Yeah, maybe he just meant the regular Zeus?

Was it on IG that Shane said the Aray uses the same diodes as the Zeus Pro?

It's a question of transpiration, not adaptation. CMH bulbs give off IR, which warms the leaves above ambient. Most of the LED lighting used for growing lacks IR, and therefore the leaves are cooler, despite the level of light. This is why we say to get your ambient temps up - so your leaf temp...

Agreed, but I do find that I have quite a bit more wiggle-room on RH than on temps.

As Rocket said, push the temps up a bit. Around 28c would be good. Peeps who switch to LED often have a hard time believing that a few degrees will make the difference, but it does - big-time. The difference in overall plant health (when you get the temps up) is profound. It's key, for almost...

What are the temps in your grow space?

I actually have some velcro tape I could have used, but I wanted the ability to adjust the Buddies up and down. The velcro is definitely a legit option though!

Finally got my Buddies up. I originally wanted to attach them to the main fixture, but that proved too much of an undertaking, so I went with side-lighting. Attached the Buddies to wire racks (former greenhouse shelving) using electrical tape, and hung them using spare straps from grow tents (I...

I'm a big believer in the genetics being the primary factor in frost/cannabinoid/terpene production. Some strains look just lightly-dusted with powder, some ooze and drip with heavy resin - all under the same light. This was grown under straight 3000k.

I don't disagree, but the wiring and sinking would be a pain in the ass. Whatever floats your boat, really.

An admitted layman's understanding: The more diodes in play - provided they are appropriately spread - the greater potential penetration. Point-source intensity does not equal greater penetration (that's an HID hangover that can't die soon enough). This makes strips/bars the most practical...

I've had some boring straight GSC, but I've also had some absolutely delightful Platinum GSC, and I've got a Gelato variant on the way from Big Head - hopefully it won't disappoint! Whoa, hold on there, brother! I'm 100% with you on the skinny chicks - gotta have some meat on 'em. But MILFs...

^^This.

I'm pretty well convinced that UV - properly applied - can increase cannabinoids and terpenes, but I'm not yet convinced that most growers adding UV are actually seeing notable real-world improvements (hence, placebo). So many factors involved. I'm also not yet convinced that chasing UV...

Very nice indeed! Looks like you really got the most out of those 411 watts. What was your final dry weight?

I know Herbie's accepts debit/credit cards.

I'm with you on this. Getting bored with all the new hype shit. Very samey. So I'm going to be running heirloom genetics from Ace - my order of Panama and Bubba Hash came in last week, so they'll be on deck soon.

Might be worth contacting HLG via email to ask if they'd be willing to sell a few boards without the kit. Their concern is people wiring it incorrectly, so maybe if you convey your competence they'll make an exception? Can't hurt to try!

This is my first time setting up a greenhouse, and really the first serious attempt at outdoor. (I did throw a few plants outside a couple of years ago, but decided beforehand that I wouldn't tend to them - it was a "let nature take its course" experiment.) This year will be our trial run, and...

Man... I just don't know yet. Been contemplating and trying to come up with a way to top-light, using whatever I have lying about. Final decision is still a ways off, because I need to redo the ventilation for the tent anyway, and give it a good cleaning. And before I get to that I need to get...
