LED Build 3x3

Looking great. I’m now in day 5 of flower. Still looking rough on the scrog. Plant was huge.

Hey how did your first grow finish up with that light? Or is it still going? I'm at week 6 of flower now. Super impressed with the light tho.

I’m on day 36 with the light. Really hope these buds start to pack on some serious weight.

Day 42 of flower here and 3 weeks to go. Think I'll get twice the results vs the burple I last used and 250 watts less as well

This is my day 31 of flower I believe.

I had some nutrient issues in the first few weeks of flower. I hope the buds pack on. I need at least 3 ounces from this. Need to make 2lbs of butter and have 1 oz to smoke.

Well final dry weight is 519g + trim that I should get some decent hash from. Will never buy another burple..

I’m very happy with the light I built. It’s perfect for the size tent I have. I may build a smaller version for clones and also bolt my driver down to a heat sink.

After running this light for a few harvests I think I am going to use it for my veg tent and build a new set up for flower. I could use a bit more light I feel. I’m gonna add a few more strips to the build. Run the next driver up from the 185 and run the strips in a series like I did for this build. Add maybe 3-4 more strips.

So are you going with 12 X 560 GEN2 (3500k) on the HLG-240-1050A? Did you buy thermal grease or paste? Digi-key?

What size will that do? 4x3?

Happy easter.. stay safe

I did buy thermal grease for each strip. I wish I bought a heat sink for the power supply.

i went 9 bridgelux strips on a 180 driver.

im going to run a 12 on a 240 for my next build wired in a series.
