Another week coming to an end .... Week 7
With week 8 on Monday and dropping an update on the 3x3 grow.

MEPHISTO TOOF
HSO Blue Dream

These are the two plants that crowded out the GG4 that went into the other room and is a " fringe " grow ... Which I will update later ( she is really bulking up ).

Anyways the mephisto is throwing the purps and smells amazing. And to be honest I SHOULD have crossed that with the blue dream cuz their smells seem to jive. Feeding has been with MaxiBloom for both .... I still haven't used the megacrop yet and would like to use on some brand new plants.

Temps are ridiculously manageable at 73° with oscillating fans only. I bumped the exhaust to an 8" so the negative pressure within tent is much much better. So leaving it zipped has been zero problem. Still powered at 355w til Monday where I will probably move up to 400 .... Cobs are going to stay where they are at.

I am using the G8 Red led (630-660nm ) full during these final weeks. I believe the Mephisto will go an easy 10 weeks or so. The Blue Dream will be partially harvested ( top cola ) as it is really bulking up and the mids are still growing.

I'm attempting to build my first QB setup. The space I'm outfitting is 2.5' x 6', I ordered 4 QB288's V2 3000k with slate 2 heatsinks this afternoon for this flower space. I'm still not 100% on what driver I should be using. I was looking at wiring the 4 in series, and using a dimmable driver. HLG-240H-C1050B, or HLG-320H-C1400B, is where my head is at based on HLG's QB288 Board guide. The board guide covers version 1 though, so I'm unsure.

@Stephenj37826 can I ask for your input?

I would use a hlg-480-2100 or 2 hlg-240-2100. You will like having the extra power. A single half-320-1400 would work but I know that I would have that maxed out in that space and want just a little more power imo.
