Dang y'all, can't keep up with this thread. Good on ya , heisen.

I dig my Growmau5 pucks

if you dont get the hook up , ill be using an American address if Heisin decides not to do international straight away if your interested man

I am indeed interested T.S.G .. your a good egg for sure!

I see I missed all the ink posts Seriously if any of u are in or near Portland go to Lady Luck tattoo and ask for J9 multiple Tattoo magazine covers and she happens to be my Sis . She has inked up Shau Lin priests from as far away as CGina and a few celebs mad talent

sweet man well just see if Heisin wants to ship testers international or not.

If he doesnt ill just use my American address and once they arrive ill forward them on to you buddy

I can ship internationally if you guys pay for the shipping. I think discreet shipping through UPS is the best way to do it . In like a Tshirt or a CD case or some other way similar.

I'll gladly pay the freight and test and post a journal here If u need more testers

No problem. I'm gonna post updates here and go through this thread as soon as the seeds are ready. I'll add a list of names and get everyone's address so all the seeds can go out.

OK, I've been lurking in and out of here long enough. I'm subbed. Your game is looking pretty tight @Heisenbeans. I'm looking forward to seeing what some of these do, particularly the Banana Cookies Sunset cross.

Well then, 171 pages, whew!! Took me a minute but I finished her up. Looks interesting, lots of good genetics to play with for sure, and being a Canuck, we don't have much access to ANY cuts. I'm pretty new around here, not to growing that's for sure, but doing the forum thing... Be looking forward to what you have going on.

I'd fire a couple in and post some pics if yer interested in having a no till test. I have 12, 15 gal pots, and can afford a couple or three for sure, maybe even a couple in each pot. Like I said, I'm in canada as well. I usually get the tshirt option with attitude, and has never failed. If you're interested I can send you some pics of what I have now. Not much but nice healthy plants as they are only on like day 10, but it'll give you some idea.

sweet i have no problem paying whatever shipping costs needed

Remember when Canada had the best u could get? That day has past and won't return with guys like Heisen Cap and many others who have really stepped up

It seems like people have to be a little more discrete nowadays.Seemed to never fail to just throw pks in a bubble mailer,and you always got them..they want to lock us down to just the "legal" gov't junk.You have the right idea @Heisenbeans ,include with something

I agree, I have received all my packs in those sealed mylar baggies wrapped in bubblewrap. Probably the cheapest option. I should really stop buying seeds, but it's an addiction. I just don't wanna miss out!

Like collecting sports cards nobody wants to miss out on the next 86 Fleer Jordan RC

QBs are legit as they come. I think ledgardner pushed like 7amps through one. Or something really high. Way past max. Jus kept going. Then it finally jus went out.

Yeah, there's a video on YouTube. He used a hlg-600 driver and pumped it into a qb288. It did fine until I got up to around 670 Watts. It didn't burn up or anything it just stopped working at that point. So I think it's safe to say that these QBs can take four times their rated wattage. The qb132s and the qb120s have even thicker and bigger PCBs because they are designed to run without a heatsink. So, I believe they could take even more than that

cool thanks guys, you have made up my mind for me! I think I will be happy!

last question, will I notice any difference in yield or density of my nugs? coming from hortilux eye 1k hps! the good bulbs lol! I've read the 550, will replace 1k single ended, but the 600 will replace a double ended hps! makes me think I'm looking at a possible increase! as long as nothing is a decrease in weight or density of my buds I'm happy, don't need an increase regardless of how awesome that would be!

Hlg exaggerates when they say the hlg 550 can replace a 1000 watt single ended HPS. Keep in mind that that fixture uses the 480 watt driver. I don't remember where I saw this, but if you look at the par/ppfd readings, it really takes 775 watts of QBs/strips to equal 1000 watt single ended HPS. People say we need 30 watts/sqft for QBs/strips, but, in my experience, you're better off in the 40 watt/sqft range.

I know your right about that but wrong about runaway. Parallel wiring each group to the driver has a greater chance of it than series.
Everything I have read on parallel led setups warns against it without resistors.
How can it not be when none of the strips share the same current only voltage

You are right about the potential for thermal runaway. However, since these boards can take four times their rated wattage, or more, I don't think it's a concern. Plus, I haven't heard of a single instance of thermal runaway happening with boards or strips since these things came out. But you are right, with parallel wiring on a CV driver, the risk of thermal runaway is there.

I prefer using constant voltage drivers and wiring in parallel because it's easier to match drivers with groups of boards that way, plus you can be sure to be able to use the max potential wattage of whichever boards you have.

I dig my Growmau5 pucks

I'd like to do a combination of cobs, pucks and strips. I wonder if strips would be good for side lighting in a tent, lining the walls so far below plant canopy. Being almost cool to the touch.

I'm down with that, especially if it's some bad ass heisen beans tshirts!!! have you thought about getting some made! I'd dam sure send some cash now for one of them!!!! @Heisenbeans

Not so much an issue with meltdowns as it is with uneven lighting. I have my boards setup to run in series.
