Yeah I know old post.... I started with LED too. I've only used California light works and Timber COB LED's. The Timber Fatty is an excellent light. But a 600W SHPS that I own produces buds that are denser and more frosty. I just bought 2 - 630W CmH fixtures with 3100k bulbs. They have dimmable...

Area 51, another LED light with a 5 year warranty that was worthless

There was a time not that long ago that "RainDan" regularly monitored RUI and answered questions. He seems to have fallen off the map or just wants to move on from Timber and be known as HIGHGROVE. Personally, I find it a bit disappointing that he hasn't surfaced and provided some insight to...

This guy can probably offer some thoughts. (CobKits) https://www.rollitup.org/t/led-users-unite.240615/post-17038751

I wouldn't give up on them yet. I own four of their lights and they're all quality. I think since COVID, it's been a challenging time for Timber. Dan is a solid guy. I'm hoping that they emerge from their reorganization stronger than ever. They really are committed to making excellent products...

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I'm glad Dan/Timber have found a new business model. Partnering with build a soil should elevate the lights profile. That being said, I'm feeling like a guinea pig in regard to the 1st generation Magnolia. That light had some short comings that have been...

4VS and Redwood My fellow Timberites, I'm selling two low mileage fixtures: The first is a 4VS set-up with 2-1750k and 2-4k cobs. I've used it for 1 grow and also for vegging. The other is a Redwood with 2-1750, 2-3k and 2-4k cobs. I did 1 grow with this one and some supplemental light for...

I just hope Dan and company make it through whatever they're dealing with. They are really solid people. It sounds like the Cypress is the way to go for you. I do think that 3k is the better choice. I've been doing some reading on 10k for the last 2 weeks of the grow. Apparently, it really makes...

Sure, I ended up growing a couple of high CBD auto flower plants that I wasn't super concerned about the results. So, I intentionally used soil that I hadn't used before and seeds that were more than 4 years old. I was intentionally trying things outside of my normal comfort zone to see how it...

Nice frosty bud from that Cypress! (What strain?) I spoke with Dan about the Cypress vs HLG 650R vs Timber Fatty configured with 5, 1750K cobs. Ultimately, I got the Fatty and it's been great. However, in hindsight, I wish that I had grabbed a Cypress too. The reason I didn't was that I wasn't...

I've had great results using air stones in all of my buckets and reservoir. I use a high output pump along with an 8 output manifold. I'm running RDWC in a knock off Undercurrent system with 4-13 gallon buckets and 13 gallon reservoir. I'm doing a clean system using the complete Cultered...

I've been growing with LED's since 2015. Along the way I've tried Cmh and SHPS too. My first LEDs were California Light Works Solar Storm 440's, the 550's and their cobs too. Okay results, but always lacking density, frost was okay and yield average. On to cmh, good quality and yield when using...

Are we starting to see the leveling off or over saturation of LED grow lights? California Light Works and HLG have both announced across the board reductions on several lights. Yes, both companies were priced on the higher side. So, maybe an adjustment was inevitable. Foreign LED's may be...

Thanks, I didn't end upgoing to 600 yet. Also, once auto flowering plants hit the flowering phase they are much more tolerant of higher par/wattage than photo period strains. I usually don't go higher than 300 during veg with photos. Both plants were started using the same batch of soil and...

UPDATE I started a test grow with this light utilizing some old auto CBD/THC seeds I had in storage. Goals for the grow are to get a sense of light to plant working distances and determining any idiosyncrasies the light may have. These photos are at the end of week three from sprouting. Noticed...

Hi Dan, My goal is to keep them in the range that you mentioned. The plants seem to be responding well at that height. Once I raise the light output I may go a little higher if I notice any stress. Room temp has been around 79-81F and humidity around 67%. So far I'm happy with how this is...

UPDATE These photos are at the end of week three from sprouting. Noticed a little nitrogen deficiency with the CBD Crew Med Gom. So, I hit it today with a small dose of Recharge. I find that stuff lives up to its name. I started out at 350 watts at 24 inches. I've upped the wattage by 50 watts...

The dimensions appear to be around 1" x 2 1/2". However, not sure. Dan from Timber is the person for definitive answers.

So, I've decided to do a test grow of some CBD autos using the new Timber Magnolia. Using 365 BioBloom as growing media. Will be running 19 on 5 off, with 1000 ppm co2 with room at ambient temperature. Strains are Grass-O-Matic Med Gom and Sweet Seeds Sweet Nurse. Seedlings are currently under...

I'm pretty sure that they are repairing them and may even build to order. However, the market seems to prefer strips and boards so Timber probably saw the writing on the wall and moved to what the market wants. I imagine that Dan from Timber will probably provide some clarity.
