Dude, pm me an email address and ill send you instructions, PDF I got off aria from Geeklight. I had a few issues setting up too, worked it out thoughHell yeah bro. I germed 100 seeds in paper towels and Ziploc. EVERY LAST ONE POPPED! Had to go to the hydro store for a rapid rooter tray and dome so I could get em all going. I was having a little trouble setting up the device...idk if you had any issues or if it was that simple...I just can't seem to stay connected to it unless I'm inches away from it. Idk...bought a digi timer just in case I can't figure shit out in time and I have to send the Bluetooth thing ba k to ha e another brought in. C.Y.A. always. Lol
I feel its almost impossible to say something that wouldn't start shit between HLG and "similar" Chinese products, if the results are even kind off similar most people would read it as "why donate extra money to HLG for their brand". So it's either trashing Chinese stuff or why waste the extra money.As the title suggest, can people post their builds, current grows, with results and not bullshit.
Please don't start shit between HLG and Chinese made boards, every one has their own ideas and budgets and that's fine.
This could be just as educational as any other custom builds, lets see how they grow.
Hey Prime. Have you made a diode count on the whote leds of the geek beast? It would be easier to evaluate their specs if we knew how many whites/reds/uv.Dude, pm me an email address and ill send you instructions, PDF I got off aria from Geeklight.

Givee me a few hours I'll count when I get home from workHey Prime. Have you made a diode count on the whote leds of the geek beast? It would be easier to evaluate their specs if we knew how many whites/reds/uv.

Over 6 strips? Id say the numbers are probably fudged a little bit but not enough to complain on a china build. Iirc they quoted 2.7 something, its hard to believe how they get there with that setup which is comparable to a hlg 650R with less diodes. But i still think this is a really good deal with all those features as long as it lasts for a decent while.1512 white/72 660nm/ 24 UV+IR...
Pretty sure I counted right...pretty stoned
We shall see. I'm still waiting on my tents extra supports to show up...thought I had em in my cart at checkout but shopping stoned isn't always the best. But in a few days Im going to vri g it to a local hydro shop that says they'll test it with a par meter if I bring it in....so hey we'll see.Over 6 strips?

That would be amazing dude! Please keep us posted.We shall see.

Bear in mind that all par meters dont have the same response curve, some are significantly worse at measuring red, some include far red and uv some dontWe shall see.

Oh my Lord, you guys are not messing around in here. I would LOVE to have 1 plant like that!As the title suggest, can people post their builds, current grows, with results and not bullshit.

Lovely rails of tricomes and it looks still real early, make sure you have a plan for the trim.View attachment 4599915
Plants are doing great. High humidity the last couple of days so not needed to water as much, but apart from that, they are doing really well
Ok so I finally ran the par numbers for the mj650’sMJ-650's finally arrived!
UPS messed up the parcels, but eventually made it in the end.
I had more help from Meijiu than I did from UPS.
Packaged nice and sturdy, unboxed it looks like a solid build.
I'll be setting it up hopefully tomorrow!
Nice work bud! I’ve got mine set around 18” dimmed to 480 watts.Ok so I finally ran the par numbers for the mj650’s
I took just a few measurements with numbers. Very even spread across my 4x8 canopy.
So dimmed down to 500w per light i was hitting 1000 par at 12” pretty much the whole 4x8 section
running both at full blast 650w each at 20” I was 900-1000 par
Then for veg I was at 350w per light at 30” above the canopy and was hitting pretty much 500 across the spread.
Hope this helps you.
By the way does anyone here live in Florida perhaps close to Jacksonville. I’m willing to so anyone that would like to learn for free. I’m also paralyzed from a car accident in 2015 I had a lawn business and a couple other businesses as well basically what I’m saying is I’m putting my all into this and if You are motivated like I am there’s no Tellin what the future could holdxyou are motivated like I am there’s no Tellin what the future could holdThe best one I’ve seen had UV, 660Nm & 730nm along with the white LEDs as each color was its own channel so any plant in any stage grows correct. And yeah the 9 bar should be good for a 5 x 5 but the price is kind of high for an Alibaba vender
