Humble's corner my grow journal

g'day @Humble grower
How many watts per tent?
is each grow using the same watts of light?
im interested to see which light wins, what
light is ur $$$$ on?
:peace:VG:eyesmoke:
I've got 8 cobs at 50 watts each per box so 400 when not dimmed the T5s are about 432 watts so power draw is pretty close but the cobs are way brighter (I actually use special sunglasses when in there) so my money is on cobs for sure. I have one of the new fixtures put together all I need to do is mount the drivers and wire it up I'll get a few pics shortly here
 
Looks really good!

So the boxes are only 3' tall? How far do you keep the COBs? Run into height issues?

I mainly ask because my grow is in a 4' tent with an LED, curious how much of a problem it will be later.

My boxes are 4ft tall which is why I scrog my lights are about 20-24 inches away and I did bleach my first run pretty bad so I'm definitely going to keep a better eye on it this time. If your ladies do get a little big try putting a net over them. Thanks for stopping by if you have any more questions I'll do my best to answer them
 
Let there be light! All put together and hung up now just need to get the far reds put together and installed. Just gave the girls a good stretch and looks like they are about ready to flip

Thanks bro I'm definitely digging the leds for sure been tinkering with the idea of adding some monos in the deep reds, IR's, and uv myself just wanted to get a idea of how the cobs preform on their own first. I've got everything but the angled aluminum for a 4k build that I'm going to get started on next weekend I'm interested in seeing how the different spectrums do and with the way these cobs are I can always take them apart and swap out some chips to mix them up down the road. I checked out your journal and it's looking fantastic keep up the good work
 
Hey guys sorry it's been a while since I have done an update things have been super crazy. I did get both new fixtures done and hung and are going great. Unfortunately I got a small mite outbreak in the hog 1 box and the blue cheese box so I cut them down early to be on the safe side. I went thru the other boxes and scoped everything and sprayed them to be one the safe side which I'm gonna repeat again every 2-3 days for the next week or two. Hopefully I nip the little bastards in the bud. I'll try to get some pics up this week for everyone.
 
Here is GG4 under my 35k fixture at about 2 weeks in. These girls have been chewing thru the nutes since I flipped them needing an extra feed on there off days
