I got experience in growing in general (HPS + shitty leds) If there is someone who really likes to plan growing tents and DIY led setups, all the help would be appriciated. I got room and I got money for it but I got no brains for leds.

For something of this scale, I'd probably go with Quantum Boards from HLG or similar. I can't imagine mounting all 108 strips by hand! At the very least, I'd go with strips with more diodes, like maybe a bunch of these: http://www.cutter.com.au/proddetail.php?prod=cut3317DaveJonesFan wrote: ↑Sat Aug 04, 2018 5:39 amJust a quick my idea notes. This is considering you want something toward the budget end of the highest tech. Just the core drivertrain components for you here.
Strip build utilizing Bridgelux EB Gen 2 strips 560mm in 3500K. Would work great for veg and flower alike.
108 - BXEB-L0560Z-35E2000-C-B3 (110 currently available on digikey) ~$526

6 - HLG-240H-20B ~$375

18 each of the aforementioned strips wired in parallel to each driver.
666mA per strip.
1440w potential.
40w/sq ft.
175+ lumens/watt.
Layout something like this, I did spacing so you can kind of see the groups of 18 for each driver. You could do them on 6 individual sections so you could fine tune the verticality of sections within the space for extra cool factor, like having 6 lights. You could do 6 potentiometers as well. Or work it all into one huge frame or segment as desired.

What do you all think?
I have suggestion, would it work out if I replaced 72 of those with :DaveJonesFan wrote: ↑Sat Aug 04, 2018 5:39 am108 - BXEB-L0560Z-35E2000-C-B3 (110 currently available on digikey) ~$526
