Ttystikk's vertical goodness

I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay;

I toke all night and I grow all day!

Hey @ttystikk thought about you this morning as I dig into my purple sticky rice with shredded coconut, feeling particularly vietnamese having rice for breakfast!

 

[Vnsmkr]

Oh yeah this shit is GOOD, eating it out of a styrofoam container with a little plastic prison spoon hahahahaha

That sounds so yummy!

That sounds so yummy!

And it tastes yummy!! Shredded coconut, some bean paste, and a bit of sugar, oh and some peanuts

Sweet red bean paste. It's the shit!

Did some heavy pruning throughout my veg today, I'm super happy with how the Tupur is working.

Along with the COB LED modules, it's redefining how I think of the term 'explosive growth'.

---------but didn't you mean "manicure all day"?

I hope the next toy you buy is a good quality light meter (that measures at least 10,000 foot candles).
I'm curious about the intensity your plants are receiving.

Thanks for the pics,

It's on the list of stuff to get, just haven't found the right meter for the right price yet.

You should have been next to me for the conversation being shoved down my throat by a guy at the local growish shop - It's a special order but the system to have is Tupur with Spectrum King Lighting

Retch on da fool's shoes.

I just wired up the @Revolution Micro fixture to run a remote socket and test fired the 860W CDM Allstart lamp. WOW, it struck hard and warmed up FAST compared to the mag startup cycle! Can't wait to have it up and running over my prebloom veg! I'll be starting a new thread on the testing soon and I'll post the link here.

what lighting are you vegging and pre flowering with since the switch to led?

Veg under COB LED and 315W CMH.

Each module consists of four Cree CXB3590 3500K CD BIN chips, driven at 54W. The driver pulls a few more, bringing the total watts drawn to 225. The COBs are arranged in pairs to provide even coverage over a 2'x3' area. The numbers people calculate range around 825-860 PPfD. I have 80 degree lenses on them. I run them about 30" from the trellis panel, the plants will grow up to 15" towards the lights.

I run 4 of these modules over a 6' tall x 4' wide trellis panel. That adds up to 900W. My best is 32oz for one plant on such a trellis.

So I recently heard some inside info about the new LED greenhouse facilities at Colorado State; they're still living in the blurple age.

I'm going to try and wrangle myself a field trip.

Good info.

If I understand correctly, and did the math right----that's .99 grams per watt (I think). That's very difficult with a 1K single ended hortilux.

What is your estimate in terms of heat reduction comparing a 1K se bare bulb against your 900w module?

A~~~

I got right around 1gpw as well. There's no doubt that the potential exists for higher numbers.

A single ended HID lamp runs at 300F or more at the surface. My modules are cool enough to touch, so it's hard for me to make such a comparison.

Well, that gets us in the ball park. Wouldn't be any fun to grab a fully fired up 1K HID bulb----ouch!

IMO, heat removal is one of most difficult challenges we indoor boys face----especially south of Mason-Dixon.

Holy shiiiitttt, man.....my brothers NEVER grew anything that looked like that! It's got a friggin trunk with intersecting crotches like a tree!

Hot damn....
