    Do you keep your LED's on 100% from start to finish, or change the strenght?

    In my grows, full power seems to promote fox-tailing. I ran my Grow Light Science Progrow320 full power for the 70 day flower run. GLS has a 120 return period so I ran it hot and hard to test it's reliability. VPD was too high during the LED stress test. I now have a Controller 69 Pro that...

    What are Coconut Charcoal filters and are they better than Activated Carbon filters?

    The Coconut Charcoal cartel say that the coconut husk is naturally more porous.

    On/off timer in seconds...

    I like the Sonoff S31 for the inching mode (1/2 second to an hour), energy monitoring, Wi-Fi remote control, & cost ~$10.

    Adding UVA

    I'd use a smart plug so you can turn it off before you open the grow room. Maybe start with 3-4 ten minute exposures per day, and lengthen the on time, over days/weeks, if the plants don't look stressed. ***I have no experience with UV lights***

    2x4 Flood & drain container and media contemplation

    I vegged 9 weeks (too long) and made lots of clones for the local club. 70 days of flower at full power (320w), VPD was too high, and the plants suffered nutrient burn. I'll do better next time, because the new Controller 69 Pro dims the light when the tent gets too warm. I exclusively fed...

    2x4 Flood & drain container and media contemplation

    I used a 1'x4' low tide flood table in my 2'x4' tent. My first grow was 4 Fire on the Mountain clones that yielded 356g under a 320 watt 3-bar LED. I like 6" rockwool cubes & Jacks 321.

    I received the bluetooth version - Apera PH60-Z in May & it's very nice. I like the 3-point calibration feature & app. I applied discount 'HIGHAGAN' for 20% off.

    Ac infinity fans

    I forgot that I own their oscillating fan. I'm aware of the 18 hour/day suggestion (mine runs all the time for now) and I plan on using the controller 69's Cycle Mode to maybe run the fan 3 minute on and 1 minute off (same ratio as 18 on / 6 off). I'll play with those number later today. Also...

    Ac infinity fans

    I have the 4" & 6" Cloudline fans & love that I can set the OFF parameter to not 0 because odor control needs the fan to keep running. I'm testing these parts that just arrived: Controller 69 Pro, UIS Type A Lighting adapter , & UIS Control Plug.

    I bought the Progrow 320 for $295 during their "up to25% off sale". June 2022 MSRP was $395. Would not buy it if it isn't on sale. Today's price of $449 is .

    Need LED decision help from light nerds

    Must be good for Grow Light Science to warrant the driver and light for 5 years.

    Need LED decision help from light nerds

    I ran the Progrow 320 at full power for 12 hours per day, for 72 days in a 4x2. I received my driver DC extension cable the last week of flower. Progrow 320's 120 day risk free return wont be exercised by me. I'm happy with my purchase. I've paid for my purchase and get nothing for commenting...

    I bet the Progrow's LED driver is made by uPowerTek. My driver is at the lower right corner.

    Need LED decision help from light nerds

    The Covert pro looks like a well designed fixture with deep heatsink fins and quality LEDs. You can get 850 watts with 8 bars cheaper here. They frequently have something on sale with a steep mark down. I got their 320 watt system for $295 USD in June 2022.

    Need to buy or make a 6 foot push-lock diver to LED fixture cable for a Grow Light Science Progrow-320

    The part # is "PROGROW DCPROGROW 10' DC". $29 UDS +$8 shipping. The extension cable isn't on the sales webpage. I emailed twice to get the cable part number or connector specifications with no reply for 2 weeks. I called 248-602-3223 a few times & they took my order. BTW - AC Infinity told...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    Here's some data on the LED driver, DL-200W-V56A-MXG, that powers the 200 watt Unit Farm UFL3000 grow light. Done is the manufacturer and they claim 93.5% efficiency at 230VAC. LED current is adjustable from 2.6 Amps (123 Watts) to 5.6 Amps (200 Watts). 3 pictures of the UFL3000
