Everything in use here is “white” except 18 630nm Cree in an old A51 RW75 on the beginning end of my grow. On the finishing end I’ve been running an old 250 watt Philips CMH 4000k, a Board and COBs in between. Veg is 4000k Vero 29 fixture with, I think, version 2. Going on 8 years most of all white LEDs. Cannabis did evolve under white light.

Hello RIU people,

Just a quick update on the girl: She's coming along and today I topped her at the 1st node:

Gnats seem to just materialize out of nowhere, so I might have to break out the diatomaceous earth soon.

I hope you're all well!

Well, it appears that the Mean Well 12V driver has died. You know, that's actually the second crap driver that I've gotten from MW, so I'm going to find another brand and see how they perform. If anyone has a favorite, I'd definitely be interested in hearing it and why you like it.

Well if you can find an Inventroinics driver to suite your needs that's what I would go with. Reason's are they are using updated electronic chips and their driver run about 10-15 degrees cooler than the analog MeanWells. The only place I have found them is Future Electronics but like I said their not always in stock. If you need a 12v driver I still have a few older one's still in the box. Pm me if you want 1 :hump:

I just did a quick google search and found a few more companies carrying the Inventronics line of drivers.:peace:

Hello RIU peoples,

Thought I'd put up a quick update on the Honey Bananas. I've topped the main last week and today I topped the branches that formed from the lowest node. Looks like she's got some big, broad fan leaves growing. I hope you're all well!

Hello RIU people,

I hope you're all doing well :) Honey Bananas is at the end of her first week in flowering conditions. She's starting to develop alternating nodes and should really take off in these next couple weeks. Here's a pic of the girl (not confirmed but fem'd seed) and my handy FIM work:

We made it to the end of the week (working nights in the lab lately so it's Friday for me) ! bongsmilie
