    Full size cabinet grow 2'x3' interior

    Just posting a first experience with these methods so others would think and share ideas for improvement. Went over budget and was unsure how this would work out. Had my doubts and almost went to hot HID lights. Overall, results were pretty good. If tried again it would be for quality over...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    What's a good option for individual lower powered Vero's such as 10's, up to 18's? They make some which would be good for lighting up a house... you know, like finding your keys or to see what is in the pantry or a plant in a room without enough light. I want them dimmable with a very simple...

    Kush on the COB: Growing Dank OG with Cree CXB

    Kill the mites. This was a small prego mommy with seed. Drowned it with sm-90 which knocked them back but followed up a couple of days later with a neem extract w/ soap and seaweed extract. Then did a soil drench with a similar. It's not being grown for consumption, only wanted to have some...

    Full size cabinet grow 2'x3' interior

    Other notes… when the canopy / chicken wire became dense humidity shot way up and mold became a concern. A small dehumidifier is visible in one of the last pictures which would remove a cup of water from the air per day. There is one fan under the canopy, two fans above it, plus the...

    Full size cabinet grow 2'x3' interior

    The girls did more than half of their veg cycle under CFL’s. CFL’s were also used in the last two weeks or so to get more light on the BB plants on the left side of the cabinet. The fixture was slightly centered to the right side. First attempt at SCROG, and first grow in 15 years. In the past...

    Full size cabinet grow 2'x3' interior

    This was made with a 2’x3’ storage shelf made from 3/4" plywood which was obtained from a business that had gone under. There were 5 of the shelf units, doors were put on two of them to make the cabinets, one of which was converted to grow in. This made it less conspicuous. The one which had the...

    Full size cabinet grow 2'x3' interior

    Seeds were planted on Christmas, and due to timing / travel they were harvested on Easter. That sort of makes it “Jesus Kush”. It took longer to harvest than expected so I let the Blueberry strain go a few days longer. If it were not for time constraints I would have harvested about 1/2 of the...

    Vero 29 1100ma ScrOG distance to canopy / tops?

    Ok, never tried screen of green and have question. 100% landrace Ind strain. Never done a pure I, NL is closest. Never tried LED's... haven't grown anything this century with exception of salad greens and basil. 40cm between top of grow bags and screen (thought they were autoflower, but a typo -...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    4 x Vero 29's and a HLG xxxb Regarding the dim function of the B variation: I understand the two wires of the dim of the HLG should never touch each other. If I don't want full brightness, is it safe to put a 1/2W 10K ohm resistor between the two wires?

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    For the two 16 gauge wires used to vary current, most often with a potentiometer or 0-10V signal: There is no statement on the spec sheet for the HLG drivers which indicates the current or wattage, only 0-10V. No one has mentioned their pots getting hot? That should mean there is very...

    Why do some guys wats to still use mono led with cobs?

    Started reading this last thread last night, read through my coffee and morning dump. So I'm going to say somethings... How about those blue incandescent plant lights? I tried them a real long time ago but they didn't work. Think the blue tinted glass knocks the CRI lower than 100? Maybe that...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    Related to the above post, Today might the day I solder but I may want a potentiometer rated for over 1A of current (isn't that going to cost more than building a PWM controller?). Maybe it's just a control circuit but wonder why it uses 16 gauge wire! just to be sure I got this right... and...

    Pictures of your DIY lights - Post your pics!!!

    Unless cash is no objective, go to a real metal supply house. Home Depot may have good prices on weed eaters but for what they charge for a 5' piece of aluminum you could have a 20' stick and a real selection of sizes. Even if cash is no objective, the small businesses need your cash to to stay...
