Big bud ma man. Honestly such a good plant. I love it. Outdoors in a cool climate I don't know if anything will do much better. I'll give it a go though.
My tents are kinda cool inside cause I use the 315 in a loft so I think I can provide the cooler climate, will wait and see if a fairy drops me a snip if not I'll have to grab some seeds, I have a wishlist going at the minute.

To be fair my loft with a cool tube is pretty cool most of the time. Not sure about summer yet but I have high hopes for the wwxbb

My cool tube was worthless last summer hence buying the 315 I supplement the heat with oil filled rads mind you they cost a bit to run constant.

I run an 80w greenhouse heater. The cooltube drops the temps by 5c In a matter of minutes and tops out dropping about 7c so worthwhile defo imo

Foliar fed a solution of Nitrozyme at 4ml/l. Superdrive at 2ml/l. And plant magic magne-cal at 1ml/l in preparation to flush the coco and break the ph to around 5.2 either tomorrow or the day after depending on how dry the medium is

And I wish I had a 315w.too skint to replace my 600w bulb lol
I know it's still quite a bit of money but check out the growmau5 vids on YouTube. He got me into diy and now I have some cobs running at 350mA. Actually had but the heatsinks I bought over exaggerated their thermal resistance so I have new heatsinks but I haven't got round to rebuilding it. Will do it this week though.

I have seen the video series cos I've considered cobs for a while now. It Is a case of cost that's stopping me. Send pics over when you rebuild it though so I can have a look please mate

Can someone who is using cobs point me in the direction to get them for less than 250 pound? If not I'll stick with my 315w
You won't get them for less than 250 bro. From what I can gather to build anything close to what I'd be after it be about 500 quid and that's not accounting for any dumb shit I do and break on the way to making it

The EXACT reason why I went for the 315 the unit I got was 250 should of been 300 but had a sale on don't get me wrong I think/believe cobs are the future, but at the moment they're just too pricey for even me to consider

Is it a 315w cmh or cdm you got? They do one in Holland hydro for about the 250 mark. Cobs are the future but just need to get to the stage of mass production of parts for prices to drop. Or order on aliexpress ha

So......

Just boiled one kettle of water and ran 5 Britain filter runs and checked the ph. It's around the 5.2 mark. No ph up or down needed. Get this flush sorted now and break the cocos buffer then start upping the feed a little
