My 8hr flowering experiment

I'm not saying anything... but I just wonder how bad she gonna stretch... every strain is different.. but wouldn't be surprised to see some inches between nodes... but Only in the effort of science will we ever know lol!

GLR packs nodes super tight so some stretch would actually be welcomed.
Your right tho only one way to find out.

There's always the chance I fuk it up too.
Hopefully those boards don't mind whacky schedules

They'll be fine, less light but better quality, should do well.

I get a lot of stretch under the COBs but less than CMH. I switch from blurple LED's in veg and that triggers a pretty good stretch which I like for the same reason you ,mention. They come in very tight nodes, opening them up is not a bad thing.

Thanks for sharing and can't wait for the pics.. truly fun to see some people still trying different techs on their ladies!

Not much to see right now.
I'll post a pic of everything before i flip. But I'll probably throw a few up of the light build too

Driver is ordered and on the way too

Exciting times

Now the race is on what gets shipped here first. The seeds the quantums or the driver

Online shopping is bad for the wallet

Who did you go through?

Cobkits.com seemed to.have a good standing here.

I was thinking about getting in the 300 watt timber Cree kit. Mix it with 4 of my t5 bulbs.

516 watts in my cab.

It will be a hybrid t5/ cob light.

I got to keep the pure par and 10,000k+uva bulbs. Makes for frosty buds.

Cobkits never had the cobs or heatsinks in stock at the same time.
Told me he had tons even put up a discounted X mas discount on but never had stock on his site so I could never order.
I ordered quantum boards from northern grow lights.
And a driver from arrow electronics.
Should be 240watts at the wall.

I use an 8 t5 3000&7200 Bulb kit over the new girls that come in and then slide them under the 600hps after 3 weeks still getting the supplemental from the t5 kit... but I'm always looking for the next project!

I like the looks of those quantum boards.

Thought about getting a couple for my veg cab.

They come in different specs for veg. Both and flower.
$75 a board and up to 150watts each.

They work well for veg, but even better for bloom.

I think so too
I've been drawing up frames and trying to decide how to put it all together for a couple days.

Are your driver plugs fused?
