Who knew a meanwell LRS 600 is up to %92 efficient for 36v and 48v power supplies? I've always used Lrs 350 and they are only like %87. That is a big difference
Cobs are awesome! Id prefer cobs over strips personally. But we have cheap electricity. They have cxb3590 3200k 92+ CRI for under $3. This same exact cob is $73 on digikey or mouser. There are still 35 left if any of y'all interested...
There are 36, h influx l06 strips 3000k. 88 lm301b diodes each, I have a bunch of aluminum angle bar 90° 1.5", I have 5, 8' long bars I can use and a bunch of random sized pieces. Plenty for these strips ran outta thermal tape and got some comin
I usually use these copper 4 up mcpcb from Mtnelectronics.com but they haven't been in stock for a while. They were like 2.35 each but like everything else gone up.

After new years I've been checking arrow like once a week looking for good deals here's what I've got to work with So far lots of strips cobs and 3535 diodes I already had the MCPCB, I reflow my own diodes when I can the boards are all Dtp, I bought over 500 xpg3 diodes for like $75 they arent...
I chopped a couple branches off all 4, the boo and boo x ww I grew in Dwc are possibly the frostiest I've ever grown and it is so hard to get a good picture with my fucked up phone but I tried, they don't do em justice. The first pic is the boo and definitely my favorite for this round. Started...
Quantity yes, quality, that's debatable. It's not gonna be an easy switcheroo everything has to be dialed in with led. I think hid is just easier as long as you can manage the heat. Ever try cmh?
I would have to third on the ujs curiosity. mines starting get after it, I had a %100 germ rate on these I now have 3 boo and 5 boo x ujs . The boo x ujs took a while longer to germ.
Watch when they figure out how to efficiently make a cheap uvb diode it'll be the next "most important color" on our lights lol. There will always be something missing from a led grow light, that's how they keep selling them to us, Imagine buying 50 of these thousand dollar lights then theyre...

Day 56 flowering the boo did very well in the 5 gallon Dwc bucket, the smell is 1 of a kind for sure. I will start looking at the buds for harvest next weekend, tho I know most will take a couple more, the Innards will definitely. It has gone surprisingly faster than I expected, im tapering the...
So I bought ace Malawi fem 5 pack came with 6 tho. And Rsc Malawi gold which is supposed to be Afropips preservation reg 12 pack but it came with 19. I planted 15 and 14 popped. I had 3 out of 4 Ace beans sprout. So it's 3 different types of Malawi going at once, this will be most of my outdoor...
Took a clone off the male malawi and chopped the father, it's decent but I wanna see what these females produce since these are f2 off another forum, I'm not %100 sure on the lineage supposed to be from TLT which I guess come from East African genes from what I understand.
I have tried 6500k with a lot of red diodes 630 and 660, and I wouldn't recommend it. I think I have a pic. I don't think 6500k diodes have any use in a grow light, it doesn't even veg well In my experience, nothing like a fluorescent. maybe someone else has had better experience than me I'm...
Day 49 of flowering... They're wind and uv burnt a little, been leaving the pure uv T5 on for 2 hours a day that and the cmh together shows on my top leaves but overall I am happy with these the boo x ww in dwc will be the heaviest yielder, but the boo in Dwc will be the frostiest. had to tie a...
