    The yield of the Cindy was 80.4 gram. A second SoG module with 5 Blue Dreams has entered the flower room (on the left) One ICE plant has been pulled and is sitting in a dark room. The older Blue Dreams are at day 66F and are not quite finished. In the last few days they have been packing on...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    Yep still up and running. Smokey check out the wago 222 for your connections.

    LED Companies w/ LINKS

    The CXA HD is not really an upgrade over the existing CXA, it's just more dies packed together to give more power from the same sized package. In terms of efficacy it is a step back. Plus the higher power density makes it harder to cool. What I'm waiting for is something like a CXA2 with 170+...

    More Money Than Brains - a water cooled cab build

    Five months damn I feel for you. But if you keep doing what you're doing you will keep getting what you're getting.

    cxa3070s@350mA orientation

    If you're running at a lower voltage than the maximum of the driver, it will supply more than the 700mA you may have used in your power calculation. Also remember the driver losses.

    cxa3070s@350mA orientation

    The block diagram suggests otherwise. The power is throttled by the switching action. The intelligence is happening in the "PWM & PFC control" block. When dimmed it is still pretty efficient.

    Height control is essential for all my strains. Topping, pinching and kinking stems over. Doesn't take long to get used to. Right, the e-juice is just a resin tincture. Propylene glycol can be used too, it dissolves more resin so the tincture can be made stronger than with glycerin. Even more...

    More Money Than Brains - a water cooled cab build

    I noticed that with the warmer weather the temperature of my plants remained the same, they only needed more water. In my case over half of the heat is transported away as water vapor. I prefer more plants but it would work for a large tree as well, it's probably the total leaf surface area...

    It was a clone with very good symmetry, topped above 3th node, developed 6 even tops and behaved better than usual. Normally there's a lot more stretch. I did leave more lower branches. With C99 the thinner side branches will grow good nugs if there is enough light. The thinness of the branch...

    More Money Than Brains - a water cooled cab build

    When the plants get bigger the temperature will drop due to increased evaporation. My cooling strategy is to keep a large plant mass that can keep itself cool.

    I'm using pharmaceutical grade PG from Inawera. The bubble hash you have probably contains some plant solids. The e-cig will readily deliver this plant matter as an aerosol to the inside of the lungs which may not be pleasant or healthy. So the hash might need an extra filtration first.

    Don't know much about dabbing (only dabbed some scissor hash). But I do know that the resin and glycerin don't mix very well. Adding some glycerin will not dilute the resin and make it more fluid, instead the two will stay separate. It is possible to dissolve the resin in a few times more...

    My best Cindy ever finished up today It has taken 54 days, same as in the previous grow. Cindy is always in for some trichome porn so here you go The leaves are pretty sticky. When they are trimmed off this makes for very rich trimmings. Here is 3.0 gram of qwiso shatter made from 38 gram...

    One acapulco gold under 2 veros 29

    Congrats on your first build... The plant needs a bit of magnesium, for example epsom salt or Kieseriet.

    The pricing on those drivers is exorbitant, it's twice the normal EU or USA price. Probably you have already checked all of these. I got them from Elpro but they only ship within Europe. As an alternative you can go cheap and power each string with a driver like this. It has good efficiency but...

    Cree CXA analysis

    That seems logical. Taking this a bit more general, one would expect the GPW that ppl get to be somewhat following Haitz's law. But somehow this doesn't happen. It's a bit of a mystery to me why. Why aren't we seeing spectacular GPW's today.

    That is exactly right. Here it is in visual form For $1000 you can make four of these lights (100 Vero's total). For the binning you need a voltmeter and a LED driver of about 300mA and 30V. An uncooled vero can be lit for max 2 seconds otherwise it overheats. So measure the forward voltage...
