New guy wondering about 50 x cxb3590 powered by 4 x hlg320h-c700b. (Cob holder V limit?)
Would I wire the whole thing together in series or two sets of 13 cobs and two sets of 12 cobs. Looks like it will just barely power 13 cobs?

Thank you Jorge . I would be running them on 240 volt light controller would that make difference as far as high volts?

No, but if you use cob holders they won't be rated for 420V, unless there is an option I'm not aware of. Maybe think about 2x HLG-120Hs instead, split over two fixtures.

yeah, that stella lens he added at the end didn't help with his limited height!.........yikes

Lmao yeah i guess my plan doesnt sound very professional but im looking to just grow one top quality plant and get as close to a lb as i can off it. I cant see a 70w helping me with that. Maybe something more 200-300ish watts could be enough.

Ah, I see.............well then be prepared to vent/exhaust with that wattage, you will have to "fuss" about it and buy some general grow gear. can't have your cake and eat it too:)

good luck

To those around long enough, this is exactly what PetFlora did. Not embellishing, but stating fact. It is a right of passage for something....thats for sure. They turn themselves into victims with diatribes. It is fun at the end of the night, after working in my non existent garden to read all the stank :peace:

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. For the same reasons Highbridway and Smo defend themselves, so did I.

People with a clear agenda (alien suckups) kept taking pot shots at me, without actually owning either the BML SPYDR 600, or the various Amare panels, even though I provided weekly photographs backing up my written assessments.

One went so far as to threaten me in a private email to my non RIU email. Only one person had that, but all the alien ass kissers believed him above my reporting the threat. This coward used Hushmail to threaten me. I now have the money to expose him should I ever be threatened again

It will work. Nice high efficiency build. If you wait for the new Veros 29s to be released it will save you some bucks.

Tell me more about the new Veros 29s, do they fit better under 120 degree glass?
Click to expand...
They will fit under 120mm lenses, smaller ones if using the non solder-less low profile holders. They're not showing up in stock yet as far as I know but the price should be under $30. OTOH, buying 50 CXB3590s you should get a discount for quantity. Just something to consider.

Jorge is right, but if you don't mind soldering you can find holders that will work. Or if you'd rather save that time go with the smaller drivers.

Hi guys, new here.
Really enjoying all the great information. I'm getting ready to do my first grow in a month or so in a hot country with a hyperactive police force, and I'm planning to use COB lighting for temps/bills/thrill of the build/etc. Anyone have any experience running 4*1212 on a 185-c1400? The simulator has it just squeezing in; was wondering if anyone had any real life experience/problems/success stories.

400 watt, quality, white or enhanced white LED should get you your pound off one plant. If you're a real good grower you could probably achieve this w/ a tight scrog, or well trained plant using 350 watts.
The light you choose really does make a difference. As well as environment, strain nutes, n skillz!
