Thanks man :blsmoke: I love my cob light! At 100 watts it's been keeping my plants nice and short from sprout. The stacking with it compared to my cfl fixtures is crazy. I recently turned it up to 120 watts. For flower I'll pump it up to the 200-250w range and these ladies should be singing underneath that shit! Lol. They'll be the first plants I've run start to finish under it.
And thanks bro! I had to figure something out with the light leak underneath. the massive hole saw holes lol.
Some point in time maybe christmas ill get a qb . i have a lil vet too i made to add a lil touch 20170722_114914.jpg

Yeah, quantum boards are sleek. I might pick a couple up in the future.
I noticed that the day I switched my plants from 24/7 to 18/6 that they exploded in growth, and not stretching either. I'm wondering if 24/7 light actually grows slower than 18/6?
Those look like some legit cfls lol. Have 10 of those and you got 650watts

Shyyt i paid 30 bucks for those lol might as well buy a 600w hps for a bill 50 . i do like the quantum boards. Qb260 is what i want. Yeah my veg light i did like that cuz i wanted light spread. Its only about 110 w at full power. Designed and constructed by yours truly. I Kinda like them samsung strips 161lm ones too id need less of them for power and i have the frame could swap out sometime but this one is working its magic nicely! Should i add the blurple strips in the veg cab too? When i vegged like that b4 i had pistils poppin at 35 days from sprout

I think 24 does grow slower too. Cuz when i do the lights from 24 to 20 i usally transpant out of the solo cups. But also transplanting booms the growing process too so it could be a factor as well

Lol, oh nvm, fuck that. Shit if it works man I would say yeah, add them! I've never had enough time with my blurple lights to see the proof.

Buds r in jars now. Got 29gs from the jacky white clone grinded up a nug and burned a bowl. Taste pretty jackiess to me. Citrisy no hay smell or taste. Made a lil hash early and woke up from a 2 hour weed nap haha. So far not bad
Can actually squeeze the bud and it fluffs back out. Good sign and good smell. Doesnt stay compressed when squeezed. One of the smaller buds smaller bud jar. I just have it layed out in the tubby there r 3 jars total but just one shot of the bigger nugs15007699826861475242772.jpg 150076954170229216989.jpg

Just testing it out. Honestly might redo it take them rectangle ones out. The smaller cobs shoulda been in the middle than the outside. Might buy some more cobs too for it 10watt ones. And put maybe 10 on it.. Idk. Its just for fun
