how hot does your heatsink get? you reckon one could attach the driver to it?
My 150W Vero29 tent.

I think it would reduce the efficiency if I did. I have it mounted outside of the tent on a doorframe.
The heatsink gets warm to the touch if turn the fan off. But not hot.
I am adding more light to it so I will be building a frame as I'm gonna a have 6 vero 18s either side of my existing bar running at 550ma. When I do that I will probably mount the driver's inside the tent on the light bars.
Couple pics from today whilst being watered in the bathroom

ive got 0,64sqm and im thinking of going with 300w of crees instead of veros, same difference. have 100 for veg and the rest for bloom.
its gonna be 1-2 more months until ill be able to get it all set up, so i am mighty curious how your grow goes.

This is my second run with these cobs. I chopped a week or so early so wasn't as strong as I would have liked but I got 180g on my last run

i don't know if adding more light will really yield more bud from that tent.
you're already running 30w per sq foot while running at a low drive current,
which in turn means better efficiency. if you're planning on doing another
220w of cob, get the .75 or 1 sq meter tent for it.

Hopefully by the summer I should have some power running to my shed. Once that's done I will be using a 1m2 tent for flower and this will be a veg tent.
It would be like that already but I've had more pressing matters which have needed my financial attention.

So had a few long weeks with kids running around and decorating but I'm back concentrating and a few weeks into flower.
Had a mishap with not waterin them so I may have fucked them up a little. We had some wilting and a lot of lower growth dying off. There are a few yellowed leaves but they have bounced back.
Will post some pics in morning as they are sleeping at minute

So a couple more pics. Think the kush is gonna be done by middle of next week. 70% cloudy trichs about 10% amber and rest clear so gonna wait til about 50/50 cloudy/amber. The cheese is still a good 3-4 weeks off being done.
Everything is stinking now. Especially the kush.
Have decided in gonna try some autos next time round. Have ordered 7 x think different as I have seen some serious weight come off of single plants

So been eyeing the plants up religiously. One of the kush is pretty much ready. 95% of the trichs are cloudy. There are only a few amber and the odd clear one. I am gonna let it go until Wednesday and see where I'm at. I think I've got at least 3 weeks left on the cheeses and maybe a week on the other kush. So looking forward to harvest time. Wanna get my next one going asap lol.

Hello Brett. Inspiring work. I really like your walk or die methods.
What did you do wrong? I am planning a similiar grow and would like to avoid as many mistakes.

I was decorating and working and completely forgot to water them for nearly 2 weeks. They looked dismal when I opened the tent. They were wilted and hanging in places

But still they flowered. Good inertia in your setup. I gotta get busy.
