I know when these beans drop I'm gonna have to go through and make some tough decisions on which strains to drop.
Been running some Chem 4, ECSD, black dog, Larry's lemon OG, arcata cut trainwreck, headband, GG4xGSC, critical mass x GSC, jack herer and have 2 new that I'm growing but yet to flower in GG4 x ZkittleZ and GG4. ( Don't know if either have the real shit in em)

I'm flowering out the last of my critical mass x G13 and spicy white devil. Those 2 I'm dropping for the gg4 and the gg4 ZkittleZ cross.

Currently the one running is on a 42" water cooled light bar over a 3x5 veg area turned down to about 40 watts/Cob @ 18" height or so. New one and existing will move to the added flower room shortly. Flower is a 4'x8.5' room that will have the 2 of them in a row covering a 3'x4.25' area each. Extra ft leaves me room to get to plants etc and/or let em get bigger. At max power 24" give or take off of canopy with cobs running at about 88 watts each. Puts it about 38watts/ft for each 3x4 half or 32watts/ft if I use the whole 4x8.5 space. If i split the current in a parallel for twice the cobs and double the bars I'll get the same watts etc just less intense and spread out more. Just not sure if the lower current of 1285 ma View attachment 4290572 would cut through the canopy like the 2490 ma does. Heat is not an issue with the water cooling on either configuration. Cob temps stay @ 30c or lower running all out or around 26c turned down. Water res does a good job absorbing the heat and slowly releasing it during lights out to keep the veg room an even temp. It's a 45 gallon daisy chained bucket setup it uses with a copper heat exchanger inside of the fan ducting for cooling like your car would.

That's pretty neat, did you design it yourself? I thought of using my chiller to cool the main flower room by using a radiator and blowing a fan through the radiator.

Yes, I designed it, was a very fun project. Built it with the goal of high power. Efficiency in regards to use of the heat it makes as a lights out heat source. I do lose some efficiency by running them hard but get 0 thermal droop as they stay about 20 to 30c. Cost effective but still good quality. Perfect size for my space. And of course grows good weed. Yeah, your radiator idea would work, just not sure how efficient it would be about it. Might just make your chiller suck a lot more juice than a small ac would. More airflow won't solve it?

First off, cool beans on that light. Always envy you guys that are a bit better with the true enthusiast stuff.

Someone the other day, forget whom, remarked how there seems to be a lot of people on riu that run their own businesses.

Why wouldn't the peers of the kind of dude that builds his own water cooled lights to grow his own weed with decent chances that he's doing it illegally, have the cajones to bet on themselves for a paycheck? Growers are a different breed of people.

You think hahaa

Not sure why people sleeping on this alien OG but this shit is super nice. I love the structure and stack of this plant right up there with the banana cookies. This plant is as frosty as the cake at the same week in flower and legit smells strong as shit. This gonna be one of them sleeper strains people are gonna stumble on and than see the pics and be like whoa let me get that Haha

I got 4 seeds out of wedding cake reverse mom and all 4 popped. I just put em in peat pellets with the ghost OG and soaked 2 macs I pulled out to see what's up. I got 100 percent on ghost so I'll be giving away the ghost bastards here in the next couple days with the same contest.


Something I came up with to make the top shelf easy and getting all this shit fed right.

I used to roll a few trash cans down the aisles with a pond pump in em before I went blumats. Definitely worth the investment even if you're just flowering a 4x8.

I wasn't sleeping on that alien, once you got it I knew it'd be fire. Any cut of alien og someone shares has to be amazing. I liked watching people grow out all those $300+ packs back in the day.

Not much has changed lol. If you knew how much I gave up for my ecsd cut you'd shit your pants. One of those things I had to hound a guy FOREVER trying to get. Not gonna lie I let everyone have it after I got it.

I have 3 aliens coming up that are gonna get the smack down. Haven't decided on what pollen to use but of course black banana gonna have to be one of em lol.
Ghost is my vote if there's a limit on how many you're willing to do, makes the most sense to me. Add some body to the ghost, maybe a bit more medicinal. Tbh almost any of your fuely dank stuff would be awesome. I could find a reason why any cross with a dub, ecsd, corey, jetfuel, etc would potentially put out greater sums than the parents.

I wanted to touch on this and say thank you from a broke ass medical grower. 3 packs of free beans, just for hanging around is very generous, and it helps me out tremendously.
Too bad for the entire time some have been here this is exactly opposite of the way things were done! Please! Run thousands of one cultivar.....then give beans away, don't charge for them at all! Yeah I know!

I have a pump set up in a 55 gallon barrel for watering my outdoor plants. By the end of the season last year I was sick of watering everyday, sometimes twice a day...this year it'll be a pump going to pvc with drip lines, set up a timer to water for like 5 minutes 3 times a day, all I have to worry about is keeping the barrel full.

Anything to make life easier, right?
