    70-80 RH with LED

    I've got little problem. My house is at around 70% RH, full tent is around 75-80% RH. I have LEDs. I know higher RH is okay with LEDs, but I guess 60% top. So... How should I use dehumidifier? I have 30 liter one. All windows closed and dehum. in room where tent is? Room is 15x15. Or dehum...

    LED light is not off

    @MedicGrow I've got two Fold-8's and I notice today when light goes out, they're still "on". I guess small amount of amperage goes through light, is this a problem?

    Growing with LED in cold climate

    Anyone done it? How low did you get with temps? My garage stays at 10°C, tent at 15°C year long. I guess I need new place because this is too low for LEDs...

    Help with build

    I have 8 gallon round buckets and I want to make some kind of (R)DWC that I can go away for at least 3-4 days. I am not sure if it's already proven system, but this comes to my mind: connecting bottoms of 8 gal buckets together with 50 mm fittings and PVC tubes. One the same size "control...

    Anyone grows with Growstream?

    Please tell if anyone using this system. It seems pretty simple, however, I have some questions... Like how you veg and set cycle with two tents, perpetual? What medium and how much? Can use rainwater (maybe some bacterial in it?) instead of pure RO?

    Big tray

    I am planing to do 10x5 DTW, option is to get hard plastic 4x4 tray or 5x5 flexi tray. I would like bigger one because I can use whole 5x5, but how's with those flexys? Any idea how to mount them higher on floor, drill hole for runoff? Or any other idea with trays and DTW?

    New cleaner system

    Looking for new system, cleaner, for big yields. Right now I am feeding 3x per day 10L coco pots DTW. I want something that can I get away for 3-7 days on holiday twice per year and not controlling it every day. I just don't like "post harvest" anymore, drying pots, roots, mess everywhere...

    5x5 led strip build V2

    After 3 years running 20x LT-QB22A on 2x 240W drivers in 4x4 tent (2.8 umol/s, 184 lm/W I think), it's time to go into 5x5 tent. I am looking for little help with design, I am little out of the league after those years. 750-1000W is what I want. 20-30 strips is what I want. I found Bridgelux...

So, I want two 5x5 tents for flowering, plan is 8 plants per tent, based on my calc that right now I use around 3.2 SQF per plant. Then I will use 3.5 SQF so...

    Anyone tested PPF of chinese lights?

    I wondering if anyone tested (like Migro) Meijiu and Kingbrite bar lights inside 4x4 or 5x5 tent? With reliable meters, PPF output and PPFD at different heights... If so, please post links. I want to compare lights before I buy. No, "it's good light" doesn't seduce me. I want numbers.

    Dehum 4x4 tent LED

    Okay, humidity in my 4x4 tent rises to 70%, plants are 20 days into bloom, tent is almost full (lost of leaves, transpiration). I removed a lot of leaves, but this is not the option anymore. I've read I must dehum my room where the tent is. But my room is at 30-35% RH, so I guess only reasonable...

    PPFD seems wrong

    I am running 20x Q Samsung strips for over 3 years now in 4x4 tent. They're LTQB22A, driven with two HLG-240-C1050A drivers. 3000 K, 80 CRI. I've put these two frames together with Randomblame, so they're running at 550 mA each, if I am not wrong, at 184 lumens per watt or 2.6 umol/s. Right...

    BHO tube with valves - how to pack it?

    I've bought new tube with 4 legs for BHO, which has two valves (bottom and top) so I can soak it longer. It's 600 x 38 mm, and it was supposed to do 150 grams. However, I pack it today with only 85 grams of dry trim. I don't know how hard should I pack it, but I guess I cannot put 150g there...

    2x2 and 4x4 tent clones perpetual idea

    So, I want to run perpetual setup with two tents, which are 2x2 and 4x4 size. I want to run clones, because I am sick of autos which I grew till now. I want more consistency.

    My 4x4 tent light need update

    So, I have 4x4 tent and 20 Samsung strips on T aluminium profiles, with help of Randomblame we're wiring it toghether, so I get 2.8 umol/s (or 2.86, I don't remember). This light is now 3 years old. I also have 5 FR diodes for EOD (6-8 W I think). Anyhow, times passes, I want to add 660 nm...

    Cold pressed seaweed

    I'm using first time liquid cold pressed seaweed in my DTW reservoir. I notice some flakes or whatever are they, on top of the water. I guess seaweed is causing this. Anyone notice the same?

    Myco in DTW coco/perlite

    I am aware of snake oil, overpriced watered nutes, false claims, etc. in canna business. That's why I have some questions about mycorhizae, but for coco. We know they're good in soil, they break up nutrients etc., but what about coco DTW? We are already using "break down" nutrients, dry salts...

    Found cheap Jack's equivalent

    Found cheap nutrients for hydro, but... They have 8% N. Of which is 3% NO3 (nitrate) and 5% NH2. Is this any trouble for DTW in coco or perlite? I know fully nitrate nitrogen would be better. Anyone grows with NH2 too?
