Eeee..... this is where my knowledge hits a wall. Im not sure how to ascertain max output voltage and amperage with a multimeter. :x You're absolutely right that you will need these figures to work out which whites to swap in. *blows the horn of gondor* Hopefully one of the brotherhood can...

You set on hydro for a reason or just your preference? (i.e over soil or a coco/hempy type mix)

Just blues. Also see my questions above...

what light is it under? If its taking 3 or 4 days for such a small container to dry out it must be pretty cold there?

dont worry about stem colour, its just a visual thing.

LED looks a lot healthier to me at the moment

Interesting stuff guys, But surely there will be efficiency losses converting to AC and then back to DC? or are they negligible?

while silicon is pretty decent, IIRC looking up the specs its way inferior to metal-based adhesive or grease. I use silicon adhesive for cheap chinese leds but not for my expensive ones

Hey Damaen, You might find another thread HERE https://www.rollitup.org/led-other-lighting/633304-if-you-new-led-want.html more helpful to you, as this is a general LED shit-talking kinda thread. :D

Sooo dohick - im still not quite sure what you're asking. this project sounds cool though, so i'd love to help. The task is to find a panel that will run off the DC, right? and figure out how regularly it'll need charging? Or are you looking for more general advice? edit: and in my previous...

To an extent thats true, but i tend to find by a couple weeks into flower everything is pretty much even, especially if you are tieing her down good. If you top i would probably do it now personally, though topping is not something i use in my own garden.

Chroni you should put the 660nm bars in asap, Ive noticed no adverse affects to "too much" 600nm (which my setup definitely has :D)

Sorry dohickory - forgot about your post in the new to LEDs thread. a LED panel is driven by a constant current driver. I think this would do the regulation for you even in a DC-to-DC system. I haz work to do but this evening i will check back in to this thread bongsmilie

You could LST the main cola in one direction and the side branching in the other. I tend to find this happens naturally, though. Nothing wrong with topping, either.

I think it could well be nute burn (ie high ppm). Maybe not neccessarily N, though. Looking hawt :hump:

Ask the company for the voltage and current of the driver for the blues. You need this to be able to make a judgement.

click the link heathens!!

not really neccessary and could dry them out unevenly. I just put them in a DARK empty cardboard box with a side open but no light going in.

Lol, I hope youre not expecting to make "cash flow" off a fridge grow dawg, if thats what you meant

While blue light is "beneficial" to an extent in vegetative growth, its not gonna magically make your plants grow dramatically better. vegging plants is not hard compared to flower. also 56 watts is WAY excessive unless your mother is a metre tall and providing tens of cuttings on a regular...
