Hey guys. Ok so I'm reaching out for some advice on spacing. I'm uploading a basic diagram of my space with some info. And will get some pics of the room for spacing reference. I have 14 x 60w qb boards (128 diods/board in 3500k) .With appropriate drivers to dedicate to this room. Dimmable. Board dimensions are 6 7/8" x 11 1/4" Room is 72 inch by 72 inch with a 74 inch ceiling. Currently using 15 gallon pots and can run 7 comfortably in perimeter leaving room in centre for access. Currently room is being used to dry my last two plants so any and all mods can easily happen now. Plan is to make raised bed as shown in diagram either before next run which is currently cloning and vegging, .or after next run in pots. Pics show reference. I don't plan on putting anything in the centre of the room. This is personal use and more than likely will not grow more than 4 at a time but will be growing veggies as well and will be composting in place so will be able to rotate things around as needed. I had thought to run the boards the long ways off of the walls but not sure how far off the walls the boards should really be when accounting for reflective sides. ( White poly but can hang mylar if I feel like it. Was considering using some .more White poly to partially enclose the bed to create even spacing for the boards. On a velcro system as my door is. This way when I want to look in it's really easy and it doesn't need to be sealed just hanging loosely. Although my door is fully sealed. So thoughts? Plan to build these this evening.
That looks very promising! Excellent stuff! You could string that whole room with QB120s and a couple QB96 Elite V2’s for flower and you’ll be shredding it in no time I like your setup tho, I would love a space like that! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I run 12-qb120’s in my 4x4. You should get two more and build a 4-qb120 light in a square pattern for each plant. Check out StickyBudHounds setup. Very similar to yours
HI Guys, Can someone answer a question for me? I have a 2x4x70 and was thinking of putting either a double 288 or a double 312? I would love one of the 800 chip boards but thats probably overkill. Thanks
Evening guys, can someone tell me whats a really good board or light for a 2x2x4 tent, just to grow autos mostly. Cheers if anyone can help.
Thinking of going with this kit. (2x800's) I've had it with my 1000W HPS/MH ballast setup and the 23' of insulated 6" ducting that behaves like 8" ducting, hogging a ton of space. Needing a giant fan to pull thru the ducting etc. Either condensation on/in the cool tube, or heat in the tent, or both. Do you have the link for the actual deal you went with? My eyes are going buggy back tracking thru this thread trying to find it and going thru Alibaba is as you said somewhere in here, like being in stuck in a Chinese soap opera lol . Holy hell it's confusing on there.
Nevermind I found it. https://meijiuled.en.alibaba.com/pr...ver.html?spm=a2700.9084395.0.0.40754fe6CCpdMQ Must have browsed over it a couple times. My eyes are shot, holy crap. Ordering today.
This would be perfect for your tent and at 200 dimmable watts would crush it 4 COB LED square light I’m reviewing this unit soon but here’s some pics of the unboxing 100% 50% Unboxing
Look for the ones with the strips of red in them. @trojangrower can you point him in the right direction? Those are the ones I would get
yur going to Love your 800s. @Soil2Coco, idk that light you posted, but the 800s rock, and we aren't even talking the new ones out. Check em out. edit ~ i did link him earlier by pm. You posted your last message as I was responding.
the newer V2 have the LM301B diode. I want some, I will order some later, but need to rewire my room with 240 as I am depending too much on my old wiring atm. Imma throw in a picture... sec... ok, here it is: its not fair to just say the 800 is responsible, but its a good starter for flowering in that footprint ~4'x4'. Here's some more: PS; that one is in coco; the one under the 96s is in NFT hydro. She's a lil ... sick I suppose lol.
oh wth, here's the one under the 96s lol. I should mention that 2x800 boards should be use in a 4x4 footprint...
The light i posted was for the guy looking for a perfect 2x2 light. I was hoping you could point the guy interested in the 800’s in the direction of the new ones with the red diodes. They looked awesome
Sorry S2C, you know my condition... hey, for a 2x2 try this. Good alternative since the HiFlux went up in price since Jan 01.
Lol. What’s your condition? That Galisteo light not good enough you think? I have to wait until I harvest my 2x4 when I get back from my cruise and find another light to test it out against and we shall see. I’m trying to get an ES180 from Green Sunshine or a Growtech light
stoned. I like the light strips bro, you get to make em, feel a bit intimate with em, and they work good! Two of those light mods from Samsung are totally generating enough light for my fig tree! oh I gotta quit dawgfawking and get back to work... tiling my kitchen floor soon!
