Thanks.
What area do they cover ? What wattage running at ? Height ?
get one more board !!!
This what im working with from a side view.
What’s your setup for getting 1.5 gpw?
Scrog I run kind of a perpetual garden, two plants under each light, dual slate QBs (I have 2 qb288s and 4 qb304s plus a few cob set ups and I run far red at the end of the cycle). I have a total of 11 light stations and once a week I usually pull two plants. Here is an old pic of 1/2 of one scrog net (the other plant was like two weeks behind so I cut it out, this plant yielded 184 grams -I was only expecting 150 so I was happy the other plant should be about 140 grams, not bad for a 240 watt power supply. The boards on this one are QB288s. This strain is a big bud hybrid by a friend of mine that we call Child Support
Looks and sounds like your doing ok.do you use nutes and r.o.water etc?...do you run co2 to feed plants.increase yeild by 20-40 percent.your room size?when you harvest do you inspect root ball to see how good roots are?what type of pots you use?aeration matters a ton.like I said that's a few th .uk ngs I'd be
and working with..one schpiel I've heard is yeild=light+grower talent.obviously there's more to it but that kind of sumerized his deal.sounds pretty reasonable as a general [email protected] little arrogant but very informative video's.like I say learn all you can and use what works for you.
That's a great idea alright. I have tried it. My old T5 fixtures now have new life. The body of the old fluorescent fixture makes a much better heatsink with strips or panels. It is too thin for cobs.
Serious.what's so crazy about it.most of the diy led light builds are made with heavy aluminum angle and plate.so the used fixture body is free and dissipates heat great.it's light and it's 2ft x 4ft so your not getting 9x18 in light?what's your thinking as to why it's silly?
I use Gen Hydro Maxigrow and Maxibloom I add in a little epsom salt. I use Koolbloom for the finish (plus some leftover Overdrive for the final two weeks. I grow in coir usually in 5 gal buckets I am slow upgrading to 8 gal tubs, I drill lots of side holes in them in order to have plenty of O2 and drainage, I hand water on Sunday, Wednesday and Friday. I have a very open room so I don't use CO2. I do not use RO water I used to Ph the water but now with the nutes I use they seem to stay in the correct range.

Dude not to criticize but those plants could yield a hell of a lot more with bigger pots and longer veg times. I don't know what your situation is but if you can get the plants a little larger before budding you will be very happy
I say the sheet metal on a T5 fixture is to thin to dissipate the concentrated heat of a cob well. But give it a shot. Let us know how much heat droop you get. I could be wrong. Show us some pics! Better yet, start your own thread. We're in the QB thread.
Seen em all.like I said I web and read like a fool.you do hydro let me ask you is it true you have to grow all the same strain at 1 time?I was thinking hydro.the flood method I think it's called.any help appreciated.keep on growin bro
oh thats cool, i thought that was your total grow area and was a bit confused on what you were trying to accomplish, happy growing.LOL! Ohh this is not a normal setup. I use this cab for breeding and I keep the plants small. I just grew this one out for giggles. I also run 2 4'x4' tents using QBS and cobs all from NGL/HLG. This cab is also used for whatever weird experiments I want to do. I migh scrog a photo period in here one day just for giggles. I'm going to be making fem seed from a couple of my strains in here shortly.
And don't you want to see how this little pot finishes?
