Well turns out the ph isnt changing over time. I was using slightly to little ph up. Got that in check and things are looking better. Really considering blumats right now for my flowering room. Would love to only have to worry about watering my veg tent/clones. Finally got my driver in and got...

Got them rewired and all strips are maintaining even temps now. None get close to as hot as the first strip in the array was getting. Thanks a ton to everyone who helped.

Thanks sir. I assumed so, car audio amps work the same way just needed to verify.

Actually 1 more question. 7 strips have 14 pos and 14 neg terminals. 2 per strip. Is it necessary to use both sets on each strip, or 1 positive and 1 negative wire from each strip will work?

Awesome thats good to hear. I may end up just going the wire nut route as i have plenty of those. Thanks for the info!

I like that and wish i woulda grabbed some. Ive seen them but totally forgot about them. Gonna grab a couple pair locally today if i can if not ill grab some online. And go 14ga from terminal to driver then 18fa from terminal to each strip yeah?

Yes, exactly right strip 1 is connected to the driver and each subsequent strip is connected to the previous strip.

The positive of each strip is connected, as well as the negatives. A short run of wire from each connector to the next. I tried to make them as close as possible in length. Stranded copper wire 18ga. Ordered solid but they sent stranded. Anything im missing?

So ive built 2 lights, each consists of 7 f series 2ft strips. Each set of 7 is wired in parallel to a meanwell 185 24a. In each light the strip closest to the driver gets very warm, the second gets pretty warm, not quite as warm as the first. The remaining 5 strips remain cool to the touch...

Lucas formula is the use of gh micro and bloom at ratios of 6ml micro/9ml bloom, to 1 gallon of water. For soiless mixes. For soil mixes its 8ml micro/16ml bloom. You can also use maxibloom dry nutrient. I forget exactly how much but its a couple grams, or so, of maxibloom per gallon of water.

This is exactly right. Just discovered it a couple days ago. Plants are having cal issues, veg they are light green with a few rust spots, the flpwering plants just have a few rust spots. Its there just not being taken, due to low ph like you said. Switched last week from using single gallon...

I had terrible luck with electronics this weekend. First got my leds hooked up amd 1 driver shits on me. Get the hps back up the ballast fries on startup! So im rocking half my led light and a couple other cheap leds in my flower tent until my second driver gets here. Will toss up a couple...

Yeah man they are fems from gdp seeds. Color really ramped up this grow im assuming due to the cold. Hopefully the tpr and pv will give a more reliable color without lower temps. Really looking forward to the tpr.

Thanks man. First gdp is gonna come down next sunday which will be 8 weeks exactly. Dont usually have strains that finish this quick. The other pheno usually needs 9 weeks and a few days.

Thats good news to hear! Thanks for the reply, and lind words. Im excited to pop them, prolly be 1 at a time and a month or 2 from now but im excited regardless.

Heres the veg tent. The bigger 6 are the tpr and pv. Some took the transplanting a little beter than others. I really roughed uo the root balls before hand due to leaving them in the solo cups to long. Plant to the left is a gdp who will get flowered in the party cup as long as i have room...

Will throw up a couple pics of the veg tent and sssdh sometime. Sssdh had to removed from the tent and tossed into a make shift flowering space. Really excited for the next few weeks as these pv and tpr go into flower. Get to find my females and some real purple! In other news upon first power...

Gdp #3 at 7 weeks tomorrow. Prolly gonna get chopped in 1 week from tomorrow. Gdp 3 at 4 weeks 4 days Gth #1 Gth #2 pretty sure these 2 are of the same or very similar pheno types. One is shorter as it has a led light above it while introduced to flower and the other relies...

Yeah i sent him a message, doubtful of a response since its a single person, not a business, and they were bought 2 months ago almost. Id just like a spare. Or i could just buy more strips and build another light! Lol. Kinda disappointed i gotta wake up and re hang my hps until my new driver...

Ok i finally got the second half of my 14 2ft f series strip build put together. So i wired up one driver to test each half of the light as i finished yo ensure it worked. The one driver powered both 7 strip lights. The other driver upon initial power up goes pssss like a fuse burning, my flower...
