Guess it would be best to 12/12 from seed. My last run i started the ghost and CT they were 6" at the flip. Several went to 36"before i super cropped them.
Fuck me. 3 ft?...looks like I better scramble a bit here. Have 2 waves of seeds...2-3 seeks apart...and one tent. LOL....after all these years you'd think I'd learn to not overgrow myself...

and more seeds are in transit...

LOL re the LED stuff Capt. Same here. I just have too many analog ballasts lying around to revamp it all for personal uses. Woulda been all over it back in the day when shit was rollin hard.

I usually top...but am hesitant to do so with..um...it looks like...(eventually) 20 in the tent....and all are unknowns/new pops for me. Gotta set up some bigger lights pronto. Haven't had a light rail in decades but used to use them when I was worried about overall power consumption back in the day. Not worried about that shit now...and have braced the wife for the increase in the electric bill to come. Heehee. I'm a lucky man...she fully supports my growing/seed purchases (OK...the ones she knows about LOL).

If these get too big I guess I'll just take over the garage again...

One thing for sure, every ones lvtk has been faf. The one I had in the tent reeked of lemon before I chopped her, then that faded as she cured. The GH model has a very slight lemon scent, fukin great sativa leaning smoke.

Hey Capt what are these pucks you speak of? Been thinking about adding a couple extra lights to the blackdog to fill in the ends of my 2x4.
These are from Timber grow lights. Mine are a 200w citizen that has a Meanwell driver( with dimmer) and 4 citizen clu048 cob's or puck's not rely sure what there called. Kit comes with everything you need. I had 1 wire that was not long enough and found it and the color i needed at the hardware store(Thermostat wire).They are much brighter than i thought they would be. Cant wait to see the results of these mixed with the 315 cmh.

All of the CVS seeds I grew were just flat out frost monsters...and that was outside in the elements. I can see how some of yaz are getting the diamonds to really glisten indoors. BLING!

Gotta say though...even after all of the negative reports here on weird growth and plants not quite stacking up on weight/etc......the star of the show on taste (and frost on the one pheno) is that Pure Raspberry Kush in any form (bud/hash/rosin). Lip smackin good stuff....that taste just hangs in yer mouth...

LOL...you guys are talking all new lights....I'm just re-upping some bulbs on 15 year old gear.

I've been hijacked here all week rippin out old windows and doors and replacing...basically...an entire wall in my house. Tomorrow though...IS A GREEN DAY. Gardening and pressing....finally!

Thanks

Built. Boards with heatsinks came from eBay, driver from RapidLED. The rest was Home Depot and me cobbling shit together. :mrgreen:
Damn Sam.. I'm not easily impressed but that shit is a really slick ass build. Ive hooked up a few lamps but that shit is PUT TOGETHER! Pushing the 480? what panels? U post anything about your build in the LED section? If so could you link me?

My little 260w qb set up is going to kill this 2x4 cabinet. I have had to store the plants in the cabinet for a few days and used the qb as the light cuz the low profile and thing is great. I can't wait to get these chucks flowering under it.

I could see myself building a qb cob hybrid in the near future. They're pretty neat light sources.

Thanks man, I appreciate the compliment. I took a bit of time laying everything out and picturing what I wanted the end result to look like. I'm pretty happy with how it all turned out.

I didn't post anything on the build...I don't think I've ever even been in the LED section of this forum. :oops:

This is a link to the board(s) I'm using:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Horticultural-Lighting-288-V2-LED-Board-Heatsink-40-3000K-41-Full-Spectrum-LM301B-/192615618997?txnId=1563233277009

This is the driver:

Boards are wired up in series with an external potentiometer for dimming.

From what Ive seen so far that little v2 96 HLG put out > COBs fwiw.. The added red and passive cooling up to 175w.. the numbers look impressive
