I wish I had a clone man, I want to build an electric 356 Speedster kit on a vw chassis and a some kind of cafe racer bike, if I could find the time and money.
on the Far red topic. I just started using some 730nm cheap ass Epistars that I got on clearance from Steve's led. After reading a bit more about PR & PFR, i think the Cree XP-E are going to be my choice in the future. they can handle 1000ma and go to 740nm.
-my observations are only based on 14 days of flowering but so far I have noticed:
flowering day 9: looks like pictures of past grows without Far red at day 12-13
Today: flowering day 15: looks like bud site developement I am used to seeing around day 18-19.
I am seeing at week 5 more week 6 effects now. I am seeing more trichrome development I would expect in another week perhaps. I run the Far Red 45 minutes after lights out. I like to let the IR and Deep Red run the entire light cycle. We shall see. yeah I got the cheap leds from steves. and they are fine for me. I am using meanwell SE-200-48 for my led drivers. I can mix the 700ma and the 1000ma in one base LDD5up. I have developed an On/Off timer for the arduino uno with relays and receptacles and I am programming an arduino uno for a growers controller to do lights on, off, far reds, blue night lights, F&D timing, temps monitor, and fan controls. peace
