    any advice apreciated

    If heat is not an issue yes you can take out the glass youll gain 5-10% more light maybe.. 25C is fine you can go to 26-27 and should still be fine but some strain will take it better than other so make sure to monitor them if you decide to go that route

    First time hydro having problems (3 weeks in)

    Hey its looking good! Yeah thats the trick with using 2 net.. everything below the first one should be cut as it wont get much light anyway.. hard to see from this angle but it look fine:: My only advise is for your training.. looking at the stem you did a good job of spreading them for the...

    Looks good ! Youre already 2 weeks in flower so net as you said is probably not worth it that much.. next grow you could try to scrog and lst them during veg and fill out the net ! But good idea the bamboo Edit: yes for sure you can put both plant together no problem there and its probably even...

Im just curious had 7 too in my 4x4 and vegged for 2 months (from seed) and its pretty full in there - im one more months and I would have ended up with way too...

    Water Before Lights Out Or Water When Lights Come On?

    The girls like dry and wet cycle so its benefical to let them dry between watering obviously you dont want to go ham on drying to the point where they die of it.. but they will handle it very well.. you didnt provide lots of detail but are you in veg? Flower? How many weeks in flower? Either way...

    Water Before Lights Out Or Water When Lights Come On?

    No you will be fine or should be fine just try to think in advance next time and increase your watering schedule if you see they dry out faster.. they will intake more water as they get bigger.. could be your soil mix which doesnt hold enough moisture (maybe mix more perlite next time) but dont...

    Water Before Lights Out Or Water When Lights Come On?

    Yes but outdoor and indoor is different. The truth is it probably doesnt matter much.. the reality is if your setup is good it wont matter but for many it does matter.. at light off is usually when you get a humidity spike from lower temp.. watering just before light out can just increase that...

    Hows this grow setup?

    Plant count doesnt matter 1 plant or 10 plants in the same area will require the same amount of light except less plant will need to veg longer.. with 270 power draw of that light my guess is 130g of bud if thats fine for you then thats fine.. keep in mind light is not everything , airflow...

    Hows this grow setup?

    They use cheap driver so I wouldnt not want to run them harder.. youre risking also to burn the diodes (already that many report issues with burn diodes within few grows)..also running them harder probably makes them even more ineficient .. id look into better unit rather than trying to pimp...

    Hows this grow setup?

    Why would it have to be half of the rated power? Why not the rated is what you get ? Take exemple of HLG QB boards.. they tell you 260w 2 boards well guess what if you turn them on you get 260w of power!! Its not that complicated.. yes to match a 1000wHPS you probably need 550-650w of Efficient...

    Pineapple Express 2 tents worth

    Well done you wont regret it! So youll be using 520w vs your friend at 1000w or so and yield about the same (other factors to consider too) but sounds pretty amazing to me good luck with your grow and keep in mind those white LED will require a bit more cal-mag than other lights so just make...

    Some DIY LED questions....

    #1 288 are 50-60V while 304 is 115V.. one can be wired in series while the other more than likely parallel but either way it doesnt matter much.. about the same thing.. I dont think HLG market the 304 anymore so youre option is 288 - by the way they are coming out with a new V2 boards in couple...

    Need some help/info

    You can probably get more value for your money with other COB than CREE.. @CobKits they are sure very good but not the best value.. if youre into DIY look at samsung F-strips and yes quantum boards are very good too but they will get their V2 in couple days/week so id hold on to grab those...

    Hows this grow setup?

    The description states about 270w from the wall.. so at most this light will be as efficient as a 250w hps.. this light is old blurple and one of the reason people hate LED.. there is much more efficient LED available (look in the LED section of this forum). Its probably in the 18 inch range...
