    Microgreens Grow Help

    I really like this idea man, great find! How would you most effectively power these? I'm trying to avoid having 12 power strips daisy chained together :P It puts me at about 1,400 watts which gives me plenty of room to fuck around with strip lights if I decide to throw ~$60 on a few hundred...

    @ $2/w it would cost about $1,232 to light the whole setup with a single lightbar down the middle.. every setup i see people using has about 2 or 3 of these modules on each shelf, so that would increase the cost to $2,464, both are too expensive for a non-COB build ya know?

    After re-evaluating my space and consulting with my girlfriend, she's okay'd a bigger setup :clap:. new plan is three shelves, each channel is 4ft long and my total allowable grow width is 30" wide (I'm actually unsure what I'll end up getting for the width of channels, because I'm looking at...

    Microgreens Grow Help

    Thankfully my dad is a handyman so we're saving a KILLING as opposed to just buying a prebuilt system (saving about $2500 when you factor shipping in) so I'm willing to spend more on COBs but it depends... with a wide reflector how many Vero 10s or Cree 3590s do you think you'd need for...

    Hey guys, my plan is to build a 3 shelf NFT system comprised of 12 shelves and 48 channels total. Each channel is 4ft long, and 4.625 inches wide. I'm stuck on lighting options however, and I'm leaning towards the Vero 10 because I'm budget oriented on this build. Can any of you LED masters...

    Vero 10 build, design critique wanted!

    I'm doing a similar setup however I want to do a stacked NFT system that has 4 channels, each 4ft long x 4.625 wide.... totaling about 19.5 inches of growing space. I'll have 12 total shelves in the whole system. How many COBs per shelf do you guys think I'll need? Also, the philips driver...

    Ebb and Flow Issue

    So I just bought the Titan ebb n gro system off craigslist, I've got my whole system plumbed and I've confirmed the unit is working.. BUT The control bucket has about 1 foot of upward elevation before going back down to the floor.. My brain is telling me that everything needs to be completely...

    Best cree set up for tiny, micro grow :)

    I would love a video on this. I'm planning an indoor vegetable garden on a 4 tiered metal shelf. Was going to do some clip lighting underneath, but the T5 lighting is just too expensive and it doesn't make sense to spend ~$400 for what's supposed to be cheap fresh veggies. Hard to beat going...

    Lighting advice 2x4x7

    Anyone have a good "budget build"? I'm looking at all my options.. I'm not opposed to running say 4x Vero10 on an ebay driver, for example. (Bad example though because efficiency would be low) I'd LIKE to get a COB that's cheap enough to buy over here vs. buying from China and waiting a month...

    Lighting advice 2x4x7

    Using a Mean Well HLG-185H-C1400? Wonder if Jerry still does China post.. kinda hard to justify $50 shipping for 2 cobs and a driver. It'd be a real bitch if these LEDs got stolen off my porch though, if I went the chinapost route :P

    Lighting advice 2x4x7

    Space will be about 2.5x2.5x6? Hows that sound what do you think That's actually pretty expensive now that I think about it. What do you think? How would you configure a small 2.5x2.5 vegging tent? I'm looking at 3590s and driver configurations for really good efficiency

    Budmaster Led Cob

    The LED is made by "Citiled" and they want $2k for a 600 watt unit, which is really just a COB + computer fan mounted to the back. I can't find anything on this brand, so I'm going to say avoid this light the plague. Conversely, you could buy 3x optic lighting Vero fixtures, and have 600 watts...

    So maybe I save the 24 inch heatsink for the vegging tent.. buy 4-6 3950s for vegging and just get a few 36" heatsinks for the main tent..? Haha no you heard me right! It's working out right now because it's so fuckin cold - keeps my plants warm as temps are dropping to 29 degrees overnight...

    Lighting advice 2x4x7

    I'm currently struggling with the decision of what to buy. I know I want to go with the CXB3950 however I'm not sure which configuration is best. I'd like to go for max efficiency in a 2x4x7 tent, however I will at some point likely upgrade to a 4x4x7 tent after a while.. Originally I was going...
