    Need help with Quantum board kit.

    Those strips from cutter just might be the way to fill out my new flowering fixture. https://www.rollitup.org/t/my-new-4x3-flower-light.986968/

    My new 4x3 flower light

    I assembled the first phase of my light today. It’s just four ChilLed logic pucks on an HLG-320H-C1750B, so far, but I’ll be adding another 150-200 watts of LEDs on another driver. Probably strips, maybe QBs. My frame is made of repurposed steel shelving parts that were lying around the shop...

    Club Quantum Board

    Tell me more! Wattage per foot? Veg through flower? All the time the lights are on, or…?

    DC volt/watt meter for drivers

    Thanks. I’m still a little worried about 183V on mine. I’m ignorant and fearful. I worry that if it blows it will hurt my driver or my pucks.

    Very interesting. How many volts are running through yours?

    DC volt/watt meter for drivers

    i have one of these on a single QB and it’s super handy. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0785S8K6B?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_pd_title Now I want one on my new light, but I don’t think the same one will work. I’m running four ChilLed logic pucks on an HLH-320h-c1750b. The chart says the voltage...

    LED configuration for 4x9 tent

    Here’s some of what I’ve learned in the last month of reading. Generally, when flowering with LED’s you’ll want 30-35 watts per square foot, unless running co2 in which case you might want 45 watts per sq ft. Some popular options include strips, quantum boards, cobs, and pucks. You don’t...

    LED Build 3x3

    That potentiometer has lead wires. No soldering required. Just use the same connectors you’re capping with.

    You don’t want their lights at any price or discount. Do what you can to get your money back.

    LED Build 3x3

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0785S8K6B?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_pd_title And then add one of these so you can see what you’re running. Best 12$ I ever spent

    3000k QB’s vs 3500k QB’s

    what do you think? Is there much difference in performance? I’ll be using them to flower.

    LED Build 3x3

    You may know already, but some folks use aluminum baking sheets to mount to. They’re fairly cheap and you can get pretty big ones.

    I tried searching the thread for innertainer but I didn’t find any designs. Any suggestions on finding?

    SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

    I like the idea of the roots being able to grow into the water, but in a no till situation with planters at least 15 gallons, I think I’ll feel better avoiding a built in reservoir. My plan A is to use 15 gallon or larger fabric pots filled with super soil, and put those on top of mortar pans...

    Organic no till, probiotic, knf, jadam, vermicomposting, soil mixes, sips etc... Q & A

    I posted this in a different thread, but this seems like good place to ask. So, in these large 20+ gallon sips made of totes, do you ever clean the reservoir? I mixed up some super soil, it’s been cooking for two weeks. I’d like to try no till, sub irrigated, but I’m not sure if I should use...
