CXM22's would be sweet if I can get this to work. So how will this work if driver is rated for 48V and the COB needs 50V? Could I run 2 on each driver? Series or Parallel?

So I currently have 2 HLG-185H-48B's I have a friend who wants to try out this COB lighting. What would you recommend? Efficiency isn't the biggest deal, just had to work for 4-5 plants. Trying to keep cost down if possible.

Anybody heard of this stuff? Was looking for Royal Gold Basement Mix, and this guy was telling me how much better this stuff is, and it's organic, and had a lot of people turned onto this stuff now for their medical grows. Any good? Contemplating trying it out

A member here had a great grow with some Royal Gold Basement Mix. I can't get any of that around here, without paying 2x as much for shipment. Will Canna Coco be a decent substitute? Will be using Megacrop for nutes.

If I was to do it over, I'd use 2 or 3 COBs and drive them a tad harder. COBs are cheap to replace. It's the drivers, heatsinks, and shipping of those 2 that are expensive upfront. Expect COBs to last a long time regardless. Long as they're cooled properly, probably negligible. I went with 6...

Lots of variables: Efficiency Cost Time Something really efficient would cost more and take more time. More efficiency, more COBs driven at lower amps You could have 2 COBs cover that I'm sure. Wouldn't be as efficient due to needing higher amps, but would be cheaper. I spent about $350 on 6...

I think it's good to have the plants stretch a bit first, then bring the light closer for the dense buds. Trying that on my next grow.

Looking for new seeds. Any recommendations on strains that generally have really high THC and harvest? Currently looking at: Gold Leaf Big Bomb White Widow Critical Kush

Just wanted to show my last grow. Ran into a few issues: Light was too close, not enough stretch Couple nutrient issues SCROG was setup way too late Harvested too late All of the above will be taken care of next grow :) Moving to Mega Crop Nutes Moving from soil to Canna Coco Will use a Hydro...

Oh wow that is simple. 1/2 Vinyl tubing, ball valve to control flow, pump, and a hydro halo. You using the 6" hydro halo? Would this pump be okay you think...

When you get a minute, could you take a picture of how you have it connected? Is it just a barbed fitting, with a clamp, then you just screw on PVC adapters?

I think I'll get the TP Link with Energy Monitoring built in here: https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Required-Anywhere-Assistant-HS100/dp/B0178IC5ZY/ref=sr_1_4?s=lamps-light&ie=UTF8&qid=1514254948&sr=1-4&keywords=wifi+plug&th=1 It'll be nice to monitor the energy consumption. Now you have some PVC...

That is neat! So you have a pump connected to your Idevice Switch. It just pumps water into your hydro halo whenever you tell it too? What pump do you use for this? You also mentioned you had to dial back the feed schedule a bit. I bet if you had more lights being pumped, you could've got away...

What is the apparatus around the base of the plant? Is that an irrigation drip unit of sorts? Looks neat. Where do I find those? I might try a 300w COB grow with a setup similar to yours. Super simple, but with twice the light of what you currently have. I just have to "get good" at growing...

My water comes in at about 8 PH with 80ppm. Is this considered hard or anything?

Pardon my ignorance. This is labeled as a soiless grow, but these are in 4 gallon fabric pots, with soil in them...? Confused Nutes look great though, great grow.

What do people recommend? Using well water if that matters

You might be able to use a push connection. Wago connectors you just push the wire into a hole, and latch something too crimp it. Make sure you get a potentiometer with pre soldered wires compatible with it

What I'm worried about is not getting enough light penetration. Is my plant too crowded for it's size? 2nd week of flowering, is it okay to trim a lot of the fan leaves up top? Does it need all the fan leaves? Advice please :)

If I have cal mag is there any benefit to Epsom salt?
