There are digital measuring tapes now-a-days. Gives you the reading on the actual housing. Then it can give you the measurement in whatever system you want it in. they can also do area and other basic functions for faster computations out in the field

Instead of fixing your light rig to one wattage try increasing it throughout the grow. Start low and increase when you think the plants can handle it. If they start to curl or crisp up just back off. Use these drivers as intended and take control of how much intensity you need at each stage of...

@TEKNIK, I love what you are trying to bring to the table. A program that can spit out all the data for a particular light and be adjusted to a specific design is awesome. However there are some major obstacles that will prevent you from seeing your dream becoming fully realized. My first...

You have some balls, lol. Your approach is a little backwards. Businesses don't just ship off their products to randoms. Who are you? what services are you providing? and where on this green earth is someone just gonna send you their purchase of which they spent their income on for a benefit...

I, like pop and others, use stranded right up until the boards and use as little solid core as possible. Use short pieces of solid for board connections and longer runs of stranded wire to run back to the driver. My wagos are actually inside of a IP rated "connection box" it's not water tight or...

Your driver is working. you are tripping one of it's failsafes built into circuitry of the driver. I would investigate further into what exactly is making it trip.

Greengene's put out another vid on making your own press with a discount hardware store press. Total spent on the build was like $350-$500 depending on how nice of a press you get.

Maybe it's their first light, wanted to do a proof of concept or something. Give them time, they will see that they want more

Expensive as hell though. Metal prices are going up though so if anyone does decide to build a frame with this kind of material now would be the time

I think he was confused with the way you titled your grow. coco usually implies that you are hydro. I think you should call your set up a 'coco based no till'

HLG only gives one driver option for a 4 board set up in series. It's on the product page https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/collections/all/products/qb120-quantum-board

@Little Dog either those pucks, or HLG has a strip of the 3 reds for flowering, HLG 35. Go to 'all products' under their catalog

I am assuming you are wired parallel? if so keep the voltage pot wide open to get the 54 volts to every board. The only pot adjustment you would need to make is to the current. Don't mess around with both if you don't understand the relationship of voltage and current. I would recommend what I...

If you want more power in the space then add another 3000 HLG-320, there is little difference in spectrum from 2700 to 3000. If you want to see improved quality and better yields then you will have to look into enhancing the spectrum with far/photo/deep reds. v2 is more efficient but not enough...

Super soils are amended HOT and need the composting time to break stuff down so as not to burn your plants. If it only stayed hot for a week then something went wrong. composting requires air, and moisture. Since you weren't mixing the pile I am sure the microbes didn't get enough air and died...

move em a little closer each week, make sure the plants can tolerate the new intensity before dropping, be patient and RECORD your findings. That way you know what height or wattage you need to be at on a week by week basis.

For Parallel wiring you want to keep your voltage the same for each board, hence a constant voltage driver. One Pot will give you the power to change the voltage within the drivers range and the other will change the current. It is a good design and will allow you to have maximum efficiency. So...

I found a link for a copy if you are interested. They slow the download speed unless you pay for a faster DL. Got it in about 30 mins, little less than 100 MB

Testing runoff would be super awesome to see it's composition. Imagine having a lab to do all of your own soil testing, microscopy analysis, and Mass spectrometer data collection. I dream of the day that I can be in the lab to help take my understanding to a more precise determination.
