What do you guys think the perfect size tray under a slate 5 would be? I was thinking of something around 20x40" or 22.5x45". Or could they be a bit bigger?

Blue Glue has been in the light of the 3000k rig for awhile since that problem with booster fan. The Tangerine Dream went back into the tent it called home and this one sat in her rightful place.

This thing blew up ... She is doing her stretch game. Again it is in a like a 1 gallon Hempy ( perlite only ) .... She loves the Quantum. I am hoping she will switch gears shortly and throw some pistils .... She is on 12/12.

Well .... Sunday Sunday Sunday

Quantum ( 3 panel )
ASH - Arjan Strawberry Haze

This is a stout bitch ... Heavy node stacking , like the Tower of Pisa !
I wanted to show the quantums effect on this one .... All leaves at the node levels are
Literally horizontal to the light .

I call her " chucky " for her shape ...

She is an auto ( 18/6 ) and will probably " open " the middle with some LST.

The KOMAKUSH was topped ( photo ) a couple days ago and is pushing new tops .
Quantum 3 panel is still rockin along - temps are still not too bad 85° but room is still fan cooled and as you can see plants don't mind. If I still had that shit HID wing I used years ago , I would be making brick oven pizza instead of weed. Lol.

Also , I have too share this. ( sort of quantum related ).

Went to the local swap meet with wifey and came across this.
I seen it on a table ( in the box ) , and asked the Mexican guy selling his stuff .....
" How much for the HUMIDIFIER ???? " ....... I wanted see what he would say ...

GIMME $10

Everything was in the box ... Except roll of bags .... No problem.
I gave him a ten and walked back to the car.

*Humidifier .... Lol

I never really thought about buying a tabletop balloon vape , but for $10 ,
OH HELL YEAH

Those things lack any type of usable intensity, gonna make some fluffy as hell nugs unless put super close to canopy, why bother...they aren't even a new design those crappy boards been around as long as LEDs been around.

That junk look familiar?


It's like we are moving backwards with LEDs instead of forward....
I don't agree at all I've hung two 600w panels and so far it's doing as well as my de hps we're doing in the same spot. Your jealousy and dick riding need to put up or shut up. Biggest hater/goof don't you have anything better to do? Honestly man if I had as much free time as you do dick riding hid lights I'd be a millionaire.heres a pic for ya goof

Sorry, Slate 3 is out of stock and we plan to discontinue it. We will make a slate 1 triple next time.
Slate 3 was thin profile, got easily bent in shipping. It was hard to do Extrusion of slate 3 as it was thin and scrap rate was higher during production so cost goes up. We will keep slate 1 instead of slate 3. slate 1 is thicker and is slightly better in cooling.

We will have slate 2 in triple. Will be here in 10 days.

Edit: any slate 3 leftover after fulfilling orders should be available this weekend or early next week

I've noticed they also sag slightly in the middle under the weight of the driver...

Is there a par map of a single qb304 (or even 288) running at full power at a height suitable of flowering anywhere?

Looking to build 2 qb fixtures, each on a .5m/20'' extruded bar heatsink. Running them each on full power hoping to cover 1x1m / 40x40'' / just over a 3'x3' reflective tent and im having trouble figuring out how to hang them in order to get good coverage. Is it possible? Dont mind getting those reflector flaps if they will help.
@ledgardener did some tests in a 3x3 and they only got me more confused. It looked like hanging them the 2 boards next to eachother, short end to short end gives better averages than hanging them further apart. Anyone tried hanging 2 qbs next to eachoter, longside to longside for this size area? Any help welcome
@robincnn and anyone else

And thanks to ledgardener for the hilarious powerhandling video, good to know that we dont have to mollycoddle the these boards.

Also request: qb120 in 2700k 90cri for supplemental red

Pay close attention to this part charts. The slate 3 tripple was running at a lower wattage than the slate 2 double. There is another par chart with it running at the same power. I think you will be in good shape if you run either. Personally two of the 250 watt kits dimmed to about 200 actual watts each would be killer in a. 3x3
