LePower Amazon Veg COB

[Angus Hung]

Looks good.. Im just finishing up a few plants under a 600w perfect sun cob light right now. and it seems to be working out pretty wel

Check Out the Initiator Housing (10w) Reflectorized (non hammered surface) $7.79 ea Plug N Play, Tall Heatsink Shroud. She only drives 8w, so probably a small driver. It's not really an issue considering 1w/sf of Initiator light is needed. At 1.5w/sf, it should be plenty powerful enough. 20w in a 3x5, mounted high, at opposite ends of the box. 10 min 660 at wakeup before lights on, and 10 min 730 at go to sleep time after lights off.

Yeah, about $60 after you cord it. 100w, ...200w in a 2x2 would rock, with Initiator Lighting. $153 for 50w/sf with 2.5w/sf of Initiators. Heat is moderate. Easy to vent, keep in 70's and have 50% humidity. Tops are clustering. It's getting ready to throw pistils.

My man! Glad to see you all wired in. The additions are awesome!
153$ for all of that?? Steal and a half! Just think of all the money you just saved from other alternatives in lighting... Expansions and better crop

Ok, so changing this looks pretty basic. What was the name of the thermal paste I need to remount it to the housing...I forget

 

[CobKits]

id make that housing flat first for better heat transfer

Not a big deal...it will only be on for 10 min per day...it's just an Initiator. I don't have my new chip yet, I'm just thinking I need to get the paste ordered.

Day 20 Early Veg, 107w VEG COB in a 2x2:



Day 0:



They need to be transplanted into 2's, increase intensity.

100w in a 2x2 is perfectly fine for the first month of Veg. $50 each, creates ideal environment temp/humidity with proper ventilation. Cheaply circulate air. 9-12 Plants. Healthy Plant Response.

Take a look at my fabric pots... I put grommets around the top so i can lst and whatnot. (first picture i found in my photos that had the grommets in it) https://www.amazon.com/Lord-Hodge-1073A-1-Grommet-Kit/dp/B00004Y68Z/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1498520129&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=Lord+&+Hodge+1073A-2View attachment 3967614

What a great idea. I use the twisty ties too. The front idea is spot on man. That be a good idea for a product line. For people who like to LST like me... I'm definitely putting them in when my current grow is done.

Yeah, I would like to do that as well. Fabric pots are supposed to be better, I just need to be able to tie down the branches.

Ive seen a guy thread in metal grommets on the upper top of his fabric pot just for lst. Id say a different route you could use safety pins to attatach to the fabric pots and the ends have lil holes u can attach to. My stoner thoughts hahaha

use velcrostraps sold in a roll at HD/lowes and they will stick to the sides of the fabric pot for lst..........easy peasy
