Quick guess on this is that the 280mm and 560mm EB Gen 2 strips are both rated at 19.5V. The nominal current is what is halved. So you indeed have the wrong driver for this particular setup. With 16 strips running in series, you will need at least 312V load on that driver. It's max is 190V. HLG-185H...

Yeah.. pests. IPM sort of. I put neem seed meal in soil blends and top dress with it. Educate yourself and read labels for insecticides use. For Spider Mites, I use a couple teaspoons of cold pressed neem oil with a drop of soap or a little bit of that 70% neem oil extract in a spray bottle filled w...

Definitely started fighting some salt buildup on these. Some took it worse than others. Day 51 here, adding a humidifier to the room to try to help dial in moisture and watering, as it just isn't quite right. They seem to hate getting anywhere near halfway dry soil so I'm watering little bits every ...

I just grabbed a humidifier to add to my room. I've been noticing something weird since switching to LED's, in that I can't let my soil moisture go as dry as I could with HID, or at least not in the same way. It seems like the opposite of what is supposed to be with less IR coming down, but I think ...

Day 43, and still standing. I put up a little nylon thread line along the front of the tent so opening the doors doesn't create a cascade of falling tops. So far so good. Got a little pushy with the feedings like always so the tips got a bit burnt, but they all appear to be swelling fairly well. Big...

It's the efficiency; the amount of electricity you will end up using to generate a given output for each light. Electrical costs become one of the primary input costs over time.

Nice... What power do you feed those shelves? 2 strips for clones and 3 for seedlings? Love what you're doing. Also curious aboot what power you're running the strips at. I'd like to know the reasoning for your ventilation setup in your veg tent if I could. Why would you have ducting taking up spac...

Hey LED masters, Back midway through big tent run. This is the 8'x4' running at 1200 watts to Vero 29C and QB288V2. Day 31 here. Keeping them upright so far this time. BigTent_Day31.jpg I ended up with 4 female Sour 98 and 2 female Tangie and Cream for the start of a new seed tester run. Just gettin...

Day 64 in the tester, yesterday. They'll be coming down tomorrow most likely. Tester_Day64.jpg Purple Lamborghini Tops: PL_1.jpg ^ I hope this one is good, love the bulky structure. These all smell great. Fruity sweets mingling with strong dank kush. PL_2.jpg PL_3.jpg PL_4.jpg PL_5.jpg Jacks' Cleane...

Are these from a mom used in previous flowering runs where you observed uniform growth patterns? Hey. The batch that came down from the big tent a few posts back was known genotypes that were run before. The Crockett's Confidential and Thank You Jerry ladies. The last couple posts are new from seed...
