So brothers and sisters, i spose its finally time i shared with you all :D

I hoped to show and tell when my box was looking sexy but unfortunately fate has conspired against me. Everything is looking pretty mediocre at the moment for some real life reasons (everything would be dead if my quick thinking amigos hadn't stepped in). As it stands, my ladies are half starved but recovering. I will dump some pictures now and give some history when my thoughts are collected.

Here's my setup. The whites are Cree XT-E warm white (R3 bin). the two smaller R/B panels are Ledengin LZ-1 deep reds and royal blues. Total wattage is around 90W if i recall.

The girl in the big fabric pot is DNA L.A. Woman. Around her in "smart party cups" (yes those are socks, im a boss i know) are a DNA Sharksbreath (the leggy single-cola plant), Nirvana White Rhino (the stumpy single cola plant, and total shite, popped her to try the strain and very unimpressed, predictably), and Kandy Kush (sickly looking at the front, a free seed).

If youre wondering why i party cupped expensive genetics. They were supposed to be chopped up for clones but change in circumstances means i have to stop my grows 3 months early. Soooo They all got stuck into flower in their original pots. :dunce:

I'll put up some cured bud shots from the last run in a sec. :hump:

Here's some photos of the "Warm White Pontoon", with 16x Cree XTEs @ 950ma. The fan fixture is the clip attachment from an old CPU cooler and some rubber for spacing. The fan is being driven at 6V / ~0.15A and approx heatsink temp is ~40C. The LEDs were actually supplied on the tiny 10mm stars so didnt need reflowing. however, in practice i found the easiest way to assemble the fixture was to reflow the wiring together, and then stick the entire assembly to the heatsink in one go (with thermal compound).

Photos of the pair of DR/B panels with copper heatsinks (om nom nom) when i put the pipe down :D
