Hello guys…don’t mean to hijack the thread but I was wondering if you could give me your two cents on a set up that was recommended to me for a 4x4. What do you think of running 2 x HLG 350r in there? How does that compare to a spider farmer se5000? Any other better recommendations maybe ? I...
Hey guys looking for some advice from other quantum board growers. Was i wrong for trying to veg under these so early on? I have 2x plants in a 4x4 under 2x qb 260s 3000k. The boards are turned all the way down. Growing in coco coir so i water every day with quater strength nute soloution. I...
Hello everyone. Im not sure if ive asked this here or not but can you guys recommend a good distance to run 2 quantum board 260s in a 4x4 tent. Im going to be putting some seedlings in tomorrow and im curious. I have them dimmed just a tad to help with my heat issues. My boards are 3000k and ill...
So you keep your temps 80 to 85 during flower ? Do you find this has been working well for your harvests? Do you do this for veg and flower? I keep reading on other sites to keep the tent in the 70s
Thanks for the recommendations. So soloution seems to definetly drop a biger oscillating fan in there for more air to move about and cool the actual room that its in. Is that correct ?
The temp in the room jumped to 79 after having the lights on for while. Im going to experiment with ac in the room this week and see if i can dial things in. Maybe a tower fan inside the tent?Temps in the room were prob About 77 when i turned them on. Its a pretty warm space in General but...
Thanks for the advice guys yes it is a tent. I just set everything up and im noticing the temps are already pretty high. 90 degrees right now and about 38% humidity. trying to figure out how to drop the temps as of right now before i put any plants in there. I do have a 6 inch fan and filter...
First time giving the green thumb a try. Im sorry if this is a dumb question but i just set up my boards in my 4x4 space and they are soooo bright. Wipl these burn my plants? How far from the top canopy do you guys recommend and should i leave them turned down maybe 50% for veg amd 100% during...
Ive really been searching for opinions on this to help me decide what qb set up to get for my 4x4. Ive been told by hlg that 3000k is the best for veg and flower and then another user in another group suggested 4000k. Is it better to just get a designated veg set up and a designated flower set...
What color temp would you recommend to acheive a full spectrum in a 4x4 tent. Would you get 2 3000k boards, or 2 4000k boards? Whats your ideal qb set up in a 4x4.
Would it be considerably cheaper to DIY a quantum board or two for my 4x4 tent or would you just purchase say an HLG 550. Initially i was going to go with a cheap mars hydro but you guys have convinced me to go for white full spectrum quality. So ive been saving for an HLG 550 (or 2x next light...
Thanks man yeh you single handedly convinced me to not skimp on the light and go for it on one of these. Been researching the white light all day. I'm Thinking of pulling the trigger on this HLG 550 they have on the site for 1049 since I'm not very handy. With your experience do these get very...
Hey buddah, thanks for that information on the quantum boards on my led question post. Do you mind if I message you privately for some help selecting the equipment so I can build a set up like that. I'm really curious how that all works.
This has been an awesome and informative thread. So much to think about and so much knowledge. I think I'm going to do some more homework for sure. I would love to explore the quantum board idea. Just need some more direction.
Thanks Maurice this is giving me alot to think about and your are helping a ton. So a few questions, i thought for a 4x4 space 800watts would be the minimum for a good yield? Are you saying then that the power usage would be equivalent if I went with HPS set up? And the fan that I plan on...
