    Are these ready? (second try)

    Second round of Nirvana seeds in soil. Bubblelicious, Sterling Haze, and Aurora Indica. (4 plants, two buds from each) In the light (LED, white spectrum) they look like a lot of white hairs. In pics... well, here they are. Are these ready to harvest? Am I a little early? Little late? Thoughts?

    Is this enough LED for now?

    1050mA is a good medium between efficiency and number of COBs needed. If you got $$$ to spare and heat is your ONLY though, go for the 700mA. DL the COB calc and get to playing with it!

    High End COBs vs $2 COBs...

    High End COBs vs $2 COBs...

    I'm absolutely fine with moving to new tech, but I'm trying to find efficiency numbers for all these cheaper COBs because I pay almost $.30/kWhr. Paying an extra couple bucks to save $$$ over the course of a year is absolutely worth it. Is there a chart comparison for these? Currently I'm...

    Why is this chart and the one in https://www.rollitup.org/t/high-end-cobs-vs-2-cobs.941089/page-2 different?

    Is this enough LED for now?

    Glad it helped! In the calculator it has the COBs' efficiency in one of the lines. You can just pop through them real quick to get the numbers. Cree COBs are pretty great when running at low amperage. Vero29Gen7 are more efficient than Cree at higher amperage (and cheaper), but... you want...

    I was looking to set up my veg tent with these. Good to know these extra tidbits.

    Is this enough LED for now?

    You got it. You are using that calculator right. At 2100mA it's 4 COBs for 844.63PPFD and 5 COBs for a 1057.35. And you'll need to get another driver and space them to avoid hot spots. (you seem to have all this under control already) If you had infinite cash, running 12 COBs on a HLG-320H-C700...

    Building my first cob light

    So, your current PPFD is talked about in here: https://www.rollitup.org/t/inda-gro-420-pontoon-ppfd.877463/ It's like 164, which is pretty low though I'm guessing it's because that light can't really light the whole 5x5 very well.

    Building my first cob light

    My opinion: *ChilLED boards are fucking amazing, both in spectrum adjustability and efficiency. You can get a kit or buy your individual components, but he tells you exactly what everything is. https://chilledgrowlights.com These are a little more front end cost, but you save electricity every...

    I don't want to step on anyone's dick/tit/other, but there is a forum for asking these and you will likely get more answers. This is the calculator thread.

    And are you considering efficiency or just looking for cheap front end cost?

    Does the calculator get updates? I would be happy to figure out how to add new COBs and shit, QBs and ChilLEDs and driver info to this. This is an amazing resource and I would contriboot. (:

    I JUST switched over to Jack's321 and I love the price/ease/control. I also have not chosen a bloom additive, but I need to soon. I'm loving the dry nutes, though. Thanks ttystikk.
