Hi Rocket,I very much like the fotop format for openspace grows. Run them low at 150w and 8 inches and cover the entire crop.
I run lm561c v1 boards, great for the price. Epi reds i generally avoid them as they arent as efficient as the white diodes.
Thanks for your input (and your other comments on other threads)
Looks like you're the guy with the knowledge I need lol.
I just recieved the fotops for my growing space.
Still have to create the airflow (in/out take)and then I'm ready to start.
First I will explain my space.
Unfortunately it is a closed space with reflective walls (unfortunately due to your comment that the fotops are great for open space) and the space is 1m x 1.5 meter and the max height I can hang the lights is 1.70m.
Here comes my question: Do you know how much space is best to have inbetween the boards?
Also: Do you know what's best, lower the boards and dim them or keep them higher and on full power?
Thanks in advance for your input and knowledge!
