Indeed. The cannabis community has done alot for me and my girlfriend since her brain injury, after she came out of her coma she has been in pretty much constant pain, the only thing that offers relief is CBD and THC. There are a few companies that have donated cbd products to her since they...

What if I drilled 1/4 inch holes in a series across the entire panel except where the cobs will be? I would also use 2 PC fans to cool it down a bit.

Would my big inch and a half thick piece of aluminum be good for cobs? Its 1.5" thick, 7" wide and 3 foot long. It isn't ribbed like a normal heat sink.

only about 1/8th of an inch.

This is what the current heatsink looks like

If I were to redo this I would use a big piece of aluminum scrap that I have as a heat sink, it is 1 and a half inch thick, 7 inches wide and 3 feet long, I could hack an end off if I wanted it smaller. This is what it looks like, about 4 inches by 4 inches

Could you reccomend a 200 watt driver I could get for around 40 dollars? I have about that much to spend.

The input numbers are different from the data sheet though so I don't know what to think

No I don't. I found the data sheet this is what it said, apparently it isn't 200 watts. : 100w LED Driver AC Power Driver Non-Waterproof with Heat Sink Input Voltage: AC85V-265V Frequency Range: 50-60HZ Efficiency:> 90% Output Voltage: 30V ~ 36V Current: 3.0A +/- 5% Rated...

Wait I found some numbers, 100-277ac 50/60hz

It doesn't say anything on either side.. Supposed to be a 200 watt driver but it's so generic there is nothing written on it at all.

They are exactly that, they are unbranded chinese junk I bought hastily from eBay before I really begun my research, I was basically trying to see if there is any way to make them worth while. My girlfriend had a brain injury which resulted in us moving into a smaller house with alot less...

Thanks again everyone.

So if I took out the 50 3 watt diodes and replaced them with 150 1 watts it would be brighter? Or do you mean run 3 watt diodes but less power going to them? I have heard the 1 watt diodes don't really penetrate very well.

Thank you that's exactly what I needed to hear. Cheers!

So I am newer to growing with leds, but from what I understand, some of the power that should be emitting from my diodes is escaping as heat through my heatsink. Does this mean with a larger heatsink or bigger fans they will actually be brighter? I'm not exactly electrically inclined and...

Wow I never thought about that. Gotta use these government spies any way we can. Thanks for the info that will more than likely save me miles of walking next year.

Jorge Cervantes medical growers bible has alot of great information, and this forum is full of a wealth of knowledge, check it out.

Damn sweet run-on sentence Jeremy.

Over watering or the soil is so compact that it's choking the roots, use a chopstick to poke holes in the dirt gently, and all the way to the bottom of the pot, this will supply a little oxygen to the roots, and stop watering it until it dries out.
