looking good @Moflow nice grow. I have no complaints myself either.
I have added some Deep red and Royal Blue 10w cobs from ebay with Vf of 8v-10v using an lpc-60-1050 driver for some additional red/blue mix.
Yes, I've 3 x 660nm reds running too. Epileds
I haven't got the 385nm chips up n running yet.
I've 3 x GG boards at roughly 100 watts apiece and 2 qbs at circa 80 watts, 5 x cxbs at 160 watts.
Plus they get some side lighting
One plant one light plus the overlap = around 1000 umoles across the canopy at 12 - 15" away.
I've given one GG board to an HPS friend to try so I'll get it back in 8 weeks.

I changed one of my veg lights from a one cxb cob 50 watt passive setup to a 2 x cxb 50 watt setup, more light spread and a better effiency too.
I just keep adding lights as I go along whilst keeping the same overall wattage which seems to work for me.

Here I am from the link below. You did not interrupt me I was being trolled.



How can I help? If you can, zip up the gerbers and post them so I can take a look at the layout. Or if you have images or whatever where I can get a feel for how it looks.

If that price of $800 for 13 boards includes assembly and the cost of the LEDs it's a good deal.
If it is for blank PCB, it is NOT a good deal.

I owned a manufacturing business for 18 years. I did my own purchasing. I am a tough negotiator when buying. Those boards should be half that if they are FR4 rather than MCPCB.

I have a way where FR4 can be better than a MCPCB.

I have a way where FR4 can be better than a MCPCB. How might this be achieved?

I have mixed 3000k and 5000k and 3500k and 5000k. the 3500/5000 is a little bluer for more stacking. I imagine the 6500K provides more stacking during flower. I think the 6500K can be a good veg and mix with some 2700K or 3000K for some real nice mixed spectrum.
I’ve just built a cluo38 1206 and solstrip combo. Veg and bloom light. 3000&3500k cluo38 (5 of each) driven by a hlg320h c700a. And 4 x solstrips. 5000k driven by hlg150h 24a. Pretty sure ive seen you over at OG @VegasWinner 2E1211E8-FDF3-448D-AE7B-20318B515153.jpeg47A1EE61-8810-4966-AED2-F5628D9EBA27.jpeg 55C2DE44-33C2-43E5-BB6A-4F4F65E148F9.jpeg656C4A2D-B952-4813-B646-5CE32679FEAB.jpeg 5AB7561C-4F68-46E5-A781-03FF10BD8420.jpegF3D8D2A5-A6B6-47A7-9EC3-87EEDF1AA295.jpeg
That’s max draw cobs and strips with no fans running.

Sprng has sprung here... temporarily at least lol so I took advantage of the sunshine and trimmed them outside.
Even the hardy bumblebee ventured out.

Both plants were super sticky with quite dense buds.
I got a nice ball of scissor hash for my Endeavour :hump:

The shorter plant will give the bigger yeild I reckon but I'll check weight once dry to see as the other plant is denser.
I've kept 2 clones, one of each..? I think ... or is it 2 of the bulky one or 2 of the denser one? Argh , I forgot to mark them, oh well.
Too much smoking addles my brain... or is it early onset Alzheimer? :o:)bongsmilie:bigjoint:

That's the nice thing about da herb...it slows you down so you can appreciate the little things like your flowers blooming and notice a visit from a bumble bee! Go ahead and digress!

Great shots of da herb I might add.
Thanks @BuddyColas :cool:
I've superhuman hearing and vision when I chop outside.
Neighbours out....... Check
That cont over the back who is always putting rubbish in his bins, gotta dodge him too lol
And in between the amateur tree surgeon cutting trees about 4 doors down I heard a chopper in the far distance.
Seen a blackbird in and outta back hedge with nesting material too.
A great day all in all.
:D

nice grow. great looking flowers both cannabis and others. love that tincture :O
I'm not long back from airport.... had to pick up my son. He's complaining about his sore back so I put the tincture on a piece of kitchen roll and he's applied it to his pain.
Fingers crossed it eases it.
