Yep!

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 ... Dissolution of Silicon from Soilless Substrates and Additives (Opens a PDF research...

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?

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

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?

Wow! Thanks for sharing all this knowledge Prawn Connery!

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

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...

I'm going to ask, thanks!

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 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...

These are incredible! I'm blown away these are here in Massachusetts, especially with the wet summer. You wrote "1:3 peroxide spray every couple of days" for problems. I was wondering if you used anything else?
