Its lucky we don't live in the same town, between our hair brained ideas we would come up with some crazy shit!

Nice work bro.

I really don't understand why Cloudline just didn't integrate a simple PID controller so you could set temp or humidity setpoint and then its automatic - Madness!
Yeah, a bit stupid when it's so easy to add these feature.
Apropos Madness.. Reminds me..

Well its been a busy night in the "land of the long smoky cloud" farm workshop tonight, finally got Prawn Connerys new boards mounted to the new sinks, there will be a 80mm gap between the sinks and 80mm between the tent and the sinks for air flow. I have mounted some rubber bump stops to the sinks so I can work on the panels upside down without worrying about damaging the LEDs

Drivers mounted to their remote frames with dimmers. I will run 5 core 1.6mm2 cable from driver to boards. This lets each pair of boards have its own supplies and the fifth core will be for an earth which will be daisy changed to the other pair - probably not necessary but I like to be safe as I note @pulpoinspace does too

If you are interested in the boards checkout Prawn Connerys new thread:

If you are interested in knowing if they can grow well, don't follow me as I can't grow for shit but this moron seems to have half an idea:idea:

Time for Uv! 2 weeks since flip and today 4 x 2ft 6% Reptile bulbs have gone in. I went with only 6% as I don't want to get in any strife burning them. 1.5hrs at lights on and 1.5 just before lights off. Ramping up to 12hrs over the next 2 weeks.

Not looking too bad at 2 weeks in... 50k lux at highest point in canopy, 42k lux at lower points.

They ran at 18inches mate for 12hours in bloom, next time I will run at 12" as I am going to new lighting panels. Noticeably stronger smell, not sure if smoke is much stronger or not.
