    Diy cob led help please!

    You can probably find some leds that will allow you to run 8 with this one driver tho man

    Diy cob led help please!

    You can only do this if the drivers voltage output equals the combined voltages of all 8 leds. So lets say your led chips need 34v to operate. if you want to run "8" of these 34v 100w led chips from a single driver you first need to multiply (34x8=272v) to get your drivers total needed voltage...

    People actually use ec and ppm meters lol?? Seriously i feel as tho they are a waste of money. Advanced nutrients 3 part is self ph adjusting, i never have to add ph up or down lol. And changing the res every week will end up costing a lot of money in nutes, with a good source of beneficial...

    Looks legit my dude. you may want to consider hanging each heatsink on it own, it gives you a little more wiggle room to spread light to different parts of your canopy. Looks like you are going to pull some serious product from that space tho

    In my experience, plants grow faster in a warm dry environment. The warmth and lack of moisture in the aor cause the plants to take up more nutrients and water which will equate too a fadter growing plant. Southern ag garden friendly fungicide is super concentrated liquid that is 98.85% Bacillus...

    Diy cob led help please!

    Dang bro 3 cobs on a 40inch heatsink? Thats like overkill times 10 haha, forsure you wont be needing fans on it. I run 3 vero29's at 66.7 watts on a heatsink that is 4"x24" and even that is way overkill, i dont even run fans on my fixtures and they stay at a constant 68 degrees. i use them as...

    Idk if you are using beneficial bacteria, but if you add some "southern ag garden friendly fungicide" and some great white to your reservoir every few days, you will never get root rot, your reservoir can run at temps of 80+ degrees without any problems, and your plants will explode with growth

    Best way to combat pythium and root rot in all hydroponic growing methods.

    Southern ag garden friendly fungicide and great white. A lot of the time when people think they have root rot, they actually have a type of cyanobacteria that is usually bleach and chlorine resistant. The bennies will save your life and improve your harvest garunteed.

    Diy cob led help please!

    I say its a fluke because every time ive ran in parallel the leds fried in a few minutes. The drivers have a hard time keeping a constant voltage supplied to each led (somtimes more v sometimes less v) this inevitably causes overloading/underliading issues in my experience. If you think it will...

    Diy cob led help please!

    If they are working in parallel then its a fluke, and i would be very cautious about powering them even for a small amount of time with those drivers. And if you do a little more research you will see that wiring leds in parallel usually isnt a hood idea to begin with because each chip ends up...

    Diy cob led help please!

    It looks good drom what i can see, just get the different drivers and you'll be in business. Just remeber that when you power them up, you can only run the chips for a few seconds without a heatsink attached or else they will overheat
