    Back to the DIY work, looking for some advice and wondering about COBs

    Cool man, thanks for the advice, much appreciated. I guess I can keep the Deep Blue and Deep Red to experiment a bit with them and try to sell the rest. Which COB's you guys recommend? Vero or Crees? What's the best option at the moment? I will probably run them soft at 700mA to get maximum...

    Back to the DIY work, looking for some advice and wondering about COBs

    Yeah same here, the think is that I woud love to try to use white COBs only and see what they can do alone! All this mono-color leds I have are still new and I'm not sure about using them or not. O have a small pannel apart fom those and I was planning to build another one but suddenly I've...

    Back to the DIY work, looking for some advice and wondering about COBs

    Thanks for the responses... Height shouldn't be a problem though as I'm only growing SOG or SCROG to maximize results. Plants would be under 3 feet for sure anyway. I'll try to figure out what to do with all the mono-leds I have if I decide to go with white COBs only. If I can't sell them maybe...

    Back to the DIY work, looking for some advice and wondering about COBs

    Really? I was expecting that with the latest efficient COBs with about 300w should be more than enough for 1sq meter tent (3'x3'), where normally 400W HID are used with good results.

I want to give props and say thanks as well to all the growers and DIYers that have been contributing with tons of great information on Led growing in this forum. I think it's still the...

    Hello bro, I was trying to message you but I can't find the way to do it. Anyway, I would love to ask you about your experience with white cobs for growing. I'm trying to build my own DIY lamp and your posts really inspired me. Cheers!

    DiY LED - Cree XPE XTE XML2 - Luxeon ES - Oslon SSL

    Amazing pannels man! That's a huge heatsink... what's the size you need to keep 50w of leds at such low temperatures? Vibes! :)

    630nm:660nm ratio?

    I've been also told many times that more 660nm than 630nm will make your plants stretch... but I think it's because some guys read the PDFs on Emerson effect and phitochrome, where they say the excess of far red will make plants stretch more (far red=700-800nm), but I couldn't find any study...

    DIY LED 220w Cree XTE + Philips ES

    Hey man cheers for the reply... yeah I guess it's not clear yet. The improvement is not amazing to make a big difference. Same with the new Luxeon M neutrals though... isn't it? lol And by the way, DIY reflow soldering will be tricky for sure! Thanks and peace bro.

    DIY LED 220w Cree XTE + Philips ES

    This is an amazing thread for sure... I learned a lot as well. Supra may I ask you about the wattage of each panel and the heatsink measures? Is it aprox 50w each? Do you guys think it's worthy efficiency speaking to use XM-L2 warm whites instead of the double amount of them but XT-E...

    You have your inbox full! :P I forgot to ask you if you have links or pdfs to read about how blue increases cannabinoid production, the effects on stretching and yield? Also what do you think about the use of Far Red 730nm? In Spain many people uses them in the lamps... Thanks man! :wink:
