    I've grown +400 IHG seeds since first discovering them in 2016, so far I've only had one seed throw a non stress related hermie (Masterpiece in week 6). There's always a small group of people hating on the hermie or dud level of every seed brand out there, I hate Dutch Passion's hermie fem...

    Choosing a rosin press

    If you want high quality flower rosin try this: Use trimmed flower and remove stems Don't add moisture with humidipacks etc. to the flower before squishing, if anything dry it out more 37μ bag (25μ works as well) 3.5g in a 2" bag for 3x6 plates, just well stuffed and fold in the opening, no...

    Data sheet for HLG rspec fr quantum board/general help

    No, 3000K is a broad spectrum, I mean mono diodes like 660nm. I have 4x4 with 3000K only, and it's awesome :)

    Sounds like it's not correctly wired or there's a loose connection. Can you share a picture if how it's wired?

    Please help with the problem of self-rising pH in water

    I'm not a hydro grower but one of my friends had this problem way back in the day, and figured out he had to get the pH down to 4 to hit pH 6 after 24 hours

    AC plugs can just be bought in any hardware store. Potentiometer must be 100K Ohm ( I usually use these for manual dimming https://rapidled.com/products/cased-potentiometer-with-knob - You can get them cheaper from Amazon/Alibaba etch. just do a google picture search. Thermal tape look fine...

    Need help finding Lm301 H or B led strips

    Which driver is it? If it's a Constant Current driver (serial wiring) it's possible to match many different strips to it. However, if it's a Constant Voltage driver (parallel wiring), you'll have to find 36V strips, I don't think Samsung makes any of those but I bought some from Cutter...

    4 qb288 on 1 hlg 240 48ab?

    Yes, more light equals more/better bud but with a bit of training and topping you can get a level canopy, and then have the lights close to the plants.

    4 qb288 on 1 hlg 240 48ab?

    Yes, the power is split evenly between the 4 boards Don't worry about safety issues, Mean Well's got your back with several built-in safety features, and if you wired it wrong one or more boards simply just wouldn't turn on, so it's pretty foolproof :)

    The strips are 560x18mm. You can basically group the strips how you want but but keep light distribution in mind, if you space the strips evenly the light is weighted towards the center of the light. I suggest an uneven distribution. I've shown the idea in the drawing below, obviously the...

    Need help finding Lm301 H or B led strips

    Are you going to repurpose your drivers? The Q-series suggested be @MedicinalMyA$$ is a really good deal, less than half the usual price. Another good choice is the newer Samsung H-inFlux series where you can get a lot more diodes per strip and minimize how many heatsinks you need. I...

    What temperature for grow tent LEDs

    Canopy: 25-28 Root zone +18 Most of us measure at a single point in our rooms/tents which is hardly a scientific approach but a good indicator, and temps can easily differ 5 degrees C from canopy to root zone. When switching from HPS to LED you also change the way your lights put out heat. HPS...

    It’s impossible not to, unless you grow with mono color and that’s gonna be a sad grow :)

    Dark hash rosin

    Squishing your own is quite delightful :) That sucks, bag appeal and story-telling are overrated, Hopefully you'll help open peoples' eyes to proper quality :weed:

    Data sheet for HLG rspec fr quantum board/general help

    The Q-series have 40 diodes per strip vs 88 diodes on the H-inFlux strips, so just use 120% more strips and you're good. You can get away with a lesser heatsink for the Q-series. You'll get a better spread but beacause they're a less than half the power of the H-inFlux I suggest having the...

    Hello growers

    I squish flower and dry sift. Flower in 37m bags bagsand dry sift in 25m bags. I press at 158 degrees and max out at 1200PSI for 2-3 minutes. This is the first squish which is what I vape, then I also do a second squish (or intend to, I have 4 year old chips waiting to be squished the second...

    That’s a really good deal, less than half the normal price. Great find, thanks for sharing (: @mscritch If you have cheap access to alumunum you can get q-series strips. You just gotta use around 60 strips total. If you feel like going for that, let me know and I’ll help you pick out some...

    Choosing a rosin press

    Looks cool but it's only 1T pressure, which is way too little, and it's rather pricey as well. I recommend looking for at least 4T. Alternatively use the hair straightener & quick clamp method if you're only squishing a wee bit every grow, and then go for a proper 10T press later if you develop...

    Dark hash rosin

    It's pheno dependent and of course how ripe the plant is at harvest, as well as a minor influence from squishing pressure, time, and temperature. Don't worry about color, it has nothing to do with quality. I'd take dark rosin over yellow goo any day :)
