Oh, without a doubt man, I agree. I would love to be able to get one, but cant, lol.. Just a tool to get a general idea is all it is. So, with the calibration of the Mars300. I found dudes thread back in history when i had my mars300. So i drilled a hole, and it wasnt on par with a review I...

Man, that value gives me better results, lol..

Hey randomblame, I went by a thread where dude did DIY Par meters, and the end result was simply drilling a hole in the cover. It pretty much is spot on with the divide by 78 perimeters, which i guess is the universal Lux conversion. I went thru and also watched many videos of Lux then Par...

Yeah, I like mine too, thanks to BGT,lol.. Very useful. something else for ya guys. If you take a Lux meter, and drill a hole in the cap, size 3/16, you can get pretty close to the PAR your lights are throwin off.

Nice, Got my thumbs up, cant wait to see harvest for sure.

Diffuse as a Unit. One large piece of Greenhouse panel if in a tent, i would say. I think, the old Mono LEDs with Lenses, with a large Panel con-caved over the entire grow would be something to wonder the benefits, because like said, the spectrum is so much smoother and indirect. But to get the...

I would say photo too, because you can mainline, lst, crop, small scrog, get a nice haul if you veg-manipulate the heck out of it for 45 days or so. Keep defoliating, keep toppin, Flip, defol again at 15 days, then dont touch her till harvest.

Hold it right above your plant, almost touching, and what does it say? hit the X100 button, and read the numbers. If it says 230, then add 2 zeros to it, so it really says 23,000lux,

In the grow world, PAR ( Photosynthetic Active Radiation ) which is a measurement of light power between 400nm and 700nm and it is used to give an indication of the power of light present that is used by plants for growth. So, the lower the PAR number, the lower expectations of growth and...

but it is a very weak light. I think PAR was like 220 at 18 inches. Mars300 is 315 par at 18 inches, so if that tells ya anything, lol..

They say 730nm cancels out 660, and 660 cancels out 730. So id imagine, for the most benefits from it, Its either or. So using a incandescent bulb, which has both, would do nothing.? Thats what i gathered from it. The plant senses a LEVEL of hormones of both p and pr, night lengths give it...

ok, I have a total of 10 seedlings now in cups. Goal is to keep them in these for 14 days from the day they touch plastic bag. Then they will be transplanted into a tad bigger container with KindSoil then flipped. I got to say, the other plants are growin quick now. But im going to clip the...

hey nachooooo, thanks for input. Im going to do it anyways to see what happens. Im not in veg long anyways with my next round of sprouts. (10) I agree with your sentiment.

so what happens if you use 730nm in veg? Does it just knock out the plant, and start nighttime process instantly? Im going to use 17 on/ 7 off. But if FR cuts 2 hours, its really 17on/9 off. just wondering what benefit in Veg. going thru this thread to find if anyone has mentioned already...

got the GrowMau puck up. Still have to fabricate a slidable up and down holder for it. Got the timer programed, and got 6 sprouts in the dirt. Might have 3 more. Plants are getting 350PAR, right where i want it at this stage. Running 5K at 110 watts. Inside temp holding at 87DegreesF.

BillyPilgram asked: Do you think the side lighting is worth it? When I say that I mean, when you compare yours to other same strain grows, are you seeing more side weight / buds? looks like it so far, I cant imagine it being detrimental

thats funny, that is what I called my LED build i just completed, lol.

oh, and there is a trim piece going around the Top also, still shopping for it. so it will end up being flush. and also aluminum tape on the underside of the top.

Hey fellas, Got the top almost done, need to paint, but weather isnt good for it. The front 2 fans, suck cool air in, the rest are passive outlets. Seems to be working good. Plants grew a good amount in 2 days, they are in the last day of dry out, they are thirsty. Going to water before...

right on Kerovan, Ill have a nice little journal right here in this thread. Going to throw more beans in the water, and get a bunch rollin. Saving up for some BOGS blue rocks or boggle gum. Sopposed to be fast finishers, and with the GrowMau puck, i can see nice shits on a 21 veg, and 42 days...
