    ACE Farmer 500 Watt. Great light, incredible price, Free Delivery Stateside. Bought one over a month ago after seeing it posted here. Ordered a second last week because, let's face it: This is the end of cheap grow lights! Say goodby, no one is ever going to get a better light for this price...

    Wollastonite as a soil amendment?

    Wow! Great feedback and results from your wollastonite grow :bigjoint: Yes, the Silicon from the wollastonite is leaching from the growing medium so I would top dress at 2 months, and here's why I think that ...

    Wollastonite as a soil amendment?

    Sorry, didn't directly answer the question. Mixed in once when blending the soil. Good luck! Saw some on eBay: Wollastonite-calcium Silicate -vansil W -20 __2 Lb Maybe let us know how it goes, too?

    Wollastonite as a soil amendment?

    It is added to the soil and then releases over days time.

    LM301H vs LM301H-EVO

    This is the study using EVOs to which Samsung refers. But it's lettuce :|:| Effects of White LED Lighting with Specific Shorter Blue and/or Green Wavelength on the Growth and Quality of Two Lettuce Cultivars in a Vertical Farming System From conclusion, "At the same electrical power, the new...

    Elevate Your Grow Game with the New Arrival Spider Farmer SF1000 EVO!

    I am very interested in learning more! Are both the 3000k and 5000k Samsung LM301H EVO diodes? What type of diodes do you use for 660nm and 720nm? Can you list the diode mix, i.e. quantity of each diode on the board?

    LED diode expert?

    To clarify, here I meant the series replaced by parallel strings, like this:

    LED diode expert?

    On this light the EE said that the power to the series would be uneven. And that the diode intensity in Series 2 might be different from that on Series 7. And this was because all the series draw off of that one green-tinted positive pad. Could this be a thing? I don't know much about...

    LED diode expert?

    I'm going to ask, thanks!

    LED diode expert?

    I have a discussion going with an EE about the PCB design of this light. He says the design is inherently poor because it is using unregulated series of diodes. He claims that, because each series is unregulated, the diodes will be difference light intensity. He introduced the idea of 25% loss...

    Is this LED light in series or parallel or both?

    Is it a mix of both? I think I've noted 13 series circuits here, all feeding from the one big positive pad (see green overlay). If this is the case, how does the power get equally distributed to each of the 13 series circuits? Please be kind :) I have a limited idea of electronics. I believe...
