4 COB DIY Build

Don't be sad!

It just looks like it does such a better job of reflecting the light everywhere.

Idk I like the way it is in the veg tent more but I'm no scientist

You don't have diamond in the veg tent?

Nah I got some cheap tent. It's gritty

 

[Airwalker16]

Why do you like that one more? You're saying you don't think the diamond is all that great? Or just the build quality?

Build quality primarily the cheaper one is easier to access. I'll be switching the tents and adding a light for the next run so I'll never notice the losses in reflectivity.

Switching the tents? Are they both 4x4? You mean you'll use veg tent for flower and vice versa?

No the two flowering plants are in a 2x2.5. The new tent is 3x3.

So to you'll use the 2.5x2 for flower next run?

Hehe no the bigger tent so I can fit more plants and grow perpetually.

K so I'm Confused then. ..what did you mean by you'll be switching tents?

 

[Airwalker16]

Do you think or can you tell that there is a better reflective evenness with the diamond compared to the "hammered" style?

I'm switching the lighting so all the veg stuff will be in the smaller tent. Personally no I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. But I also built my light around the idea of having it producing the maximum PPFD for a 2x2.5 footprint. So the reflectivity to me is kind of moot.

Hm. Isn't the veg stuff already in the small tent? Because it's your veg tent? You cxb's are in the new g leaf 3x3 along with whatever that other light is. So I'm still lost... lol.

Hahaha yeah dude I'll clear it up. I started with the 2x2.5 then I had to move all my shit to a different house. Then I bought the 3x3 and a t5 for vegging. I kept my already growing plants in the 2x2.5 because my LED is providing better coverage in there. When I build my other light in June the 3x3 will become the flower tent. Hope that gets you back on track!

So the 2x2.5 is diamond mylar and the 3x3 isnt?

Correct!
