Some pics of my bulks.
Not proud of the ones under the Quantum boards at the moment. Turns out the 265w(2x) kit dimmed to 200w they can be close as you like, turned up to 285w and plants lowered was still too much. One of them has gone into shock too, I had to stake them and must of broke a major root by mistake. It looks like its been flushed but its not been.
The first pic is of the QB side but the only pic showing the now cropped bulks from under the cobs. Hard to see but the scrog is there and the non scrogged behind it. 2nd pic is QB side some weeks ago.
The other pics, 4 nearly finished under QBs (first run with QB so a learning curve) then 4 that went to 12/12 on 15/07/2017. Under cobs. They are looking healthy. Not the QBs fault, I will dim them in future.

Tis a learning curve I think.....

I'm running the incredible bulk at the moment. 2nd crops due in the next two weeks. Be good to see how she turns out under your supervision.

Oh and I might of touched myself when I saw the lab results.. sry. Just wish I had that sort of facility available. :clap:

When I went to Home Depot they wanted so much fucking money for a metal they want it almost $100 for 24 foot total angle. I sied fuck it used wooooooood duz does anybody know names of places to get affordable angle frame or any type of framing to make a frame for a light

I'm in Europe mate so not sure where you would get them. I googled it though and it brings up many .com seedbanks. Gorilla seeds have both a UK site and a US site so perhaps try there.

Same with the Aluminium, I use aluminium warehouse, just google metal suppliers in your area, there should be plenty of online stores who will even cut it to exact size you want.

I got my seeds from bonzaseeds.com. great service, fast delivery from uk to us. Tryl them out. They ship worldwide.
 
Looks great! Quick question, running them at 220 does it change anything? In other words would the HLG-240H-C1400A still be able to power 3 1825 at 220?

220 is the power IN. That has nothing to do with what the driver can push. 220 is much more efficient than 110. So cost to run decreases on 220 rather than 110. But to power cobs, Look at the specs of the driver, the forward voltage max to be precise. Then look at what those chips draw. If they are 50v chips, the 240-1400A only has a total voltage output of 179 volts. So divide 179 by the voltage per chip (50), and thatll give u 3 u can run off the one single driver. That goes for any other driver and chip as well. Same concept applies. Basic stuff bro. Read read read.

Sorry, shoulda said I'm UK based so it's this type of three pin plug type.

I thought you were uk based.....
:cool:
Quite alright. Im just going to finagle something up. Maybe an ammeter voltmeter, maybe one of those power meter like u have but with an adapter for us plugs. It sucks they dont manufacture something specifically for 220 straight blade US plugs.

Well ive managed to bring back the incredible bulk from her slight calmag deficiency. Shes on the up n up. New growth is beautiful. Will pluck old deficient growth off as it dies. As far as newest pics here it is. Next couple plants to go in will definitely be allowed to stretch. With the incredible bulk, i limited her stretch with the scrog and lowering the lights right on top of her. The next 2 will be allowed to strecth into the light (higher up) to maybe get more keeper bud per branch. Heres the latest pics. Somewhere along week 5-6.
