Very cool.The aluminum blocks are the 225W COB LED modules I designed. They look like that because they are water cooled.
I'm pushing them very hard and so they're showing signs of stress. The grapefruit in particular is a PITA with nutes and has always done that.Love the new panels looking really neat, can't wait till end of this month so I can get 4 panels ordered.
Not trying to be a smart arse but can I ask whats up with the plants as they aint to healthy looking at the minute.
Jury is still out, but so far, so good.Tty I bet you don't have to water cool the quantums lol. I imagine the standard style cobs are more of a beam,direct light vs the boards ? From what you've seen so far what do you think about them vs standard style cobs ? Your the only one I know of using them in an open space grow atm.
Very cool to see the setup there brother. Looks like a garden spaceship, I like!
NASA began examining Aeroponics as a possible means of actually growing food in space. In 1996, NASA began funding the research of Richard Stoner, the man who first patented the microchip that initially made the automatic watering of aeroponically grown plants possible. At the time, he was working on a way to grow plants aeroponically without using pesticides that are sometimes necessary to control pathogens through using liquid biocontrol. A year later, NASA was performing their own experiments for biocontrol. Experiments were conducted on growth chambers on the MIR Space Station, the Kennedy Space Center, and Colorado State University.
In 1998, Stoner began using NASA funding to develop an Aeroponics system that could be used effectively in space. In zero gravity, there were no sufficient ways to provide plants with moisture and nutrition. Additionally, it is also difficult to grow food in space because there is often very little room to keep water, fertilizer, media and other necessary supplies. Stoner was able to demonstrate that aeroponics is a viable way to overcome these obstacles and grow healthy vegetables aboard a spacecraft. Since aeroponics makes extremely efficient use of water, very little has to be used and stored. And since aeroponics requires no growing medium, none needs to be taken on space missions.
They never get them in the first place, same with other pests.So how would they get rid of sipermites on the space station...........
I read the name of the borg and I hit my girls with 217c even if they don't need it.They never get them in the first place, same with other pests.
I'll try that, myself.I read the name of the borg and I hit my girls with 217c even if they don't need it.

Ah, 'tis a failure of the medium, not the messenger!'Twas a failed attempt at humor........ lol
Sent pm to keep thread on track...I'm having visions of an Aliens redux with giant borgs as the the alien scum they are... Sigourney Weaver would have a giant spray bottle of Azamax.
I had my first experience with the borg on my current crop. We never had to deal with them back in the South, so I didn't think to do any preventative spraying/dippping on a couple of clones from a local shop. Apparently this region is lousy with them due to all of the growers and the dry climate. Just read up on that 217c. Does it work better than Azamax?
A 20 amp breaker only allows you to continuously draw a maximum of 16 amps.These two fixtures use 670W/240V single phase = 2.8A, a full rack of six 4' wide x 6' tall trellis panels needs a dozen fixtures and would pull 4000W or just 17A, it would be tight but could get away with a 20A breaker. 30A to be bulletproof.
So I run a 30A breaker to pull about 20A.A 20 amp breaker only allows you to continuously draw a maximum of 16 amps.
