    Need to work during dark cycle, what light?

    Title says it all. I've run in to a situation where I couldn't get to my room during the light period to water. What light can I use during the dark cycle so I can get in there and do a little watering. Preferably something from Amazon.

    Do mushrooms like cobs?

    Because I got a bunch growing in my flowering room, they just sprang up in my buckets. Is this something I need to worry about? No, they are not the good ones.

    I plan on do something similar shortly, it really seems like a no brainer, widening that red peak out should really be a positive.

    The question is how do 4 of these stack up to a 1212 at the same overall power.

    LED lighting and deficiencies

    I couldn't give any sage advice, I'm still a newbie. I'm growing in dirt, (off brand but comparable to promix ultimate organic) and have issues on week 3 when they get done stretching and start packing. I'm on my 3rd run and stuff is getting better, much of my problems were underwatering. Even...

    Sixstring's Cob Build

    Thanks man. Am I correct to assume that Vortex fan is the vtx series? Those didn't pop up for me on Amazon when searching last night but came right up when searching Vortex. I have the opposite problem, my space doesn't get hot enough with cob so I need to turn that fan down. Thanks again.

    Sixstring's Cob Build

    Hey sixstring, I was researching the Titan Mercury 4 and seen that you had one. What fans do you use with this and do you get any noticeable humming with it. My exhaust fan took a shit (I was able to fix it but it has to be considered temporary) and I'm looking to replace it. Information on...

    Vero vs Citizen

    Because if datasheets were the thing to go by Cree would still rule the roost. That Vero you are looking at does look interesting and is worth investigation.

    Vero vs Citizen

    I tested the cxm22 vs the 1212 and CobKits was dead nuts on the numbers in relation to each other. I have no reason to doubt him.

    I had not heard that before, how low do you have to go before this is actually a problem? How much more loss or resistance is there going to running 50 watts at 50 volts in a 14 gauge wire than an 18 gauge wire. I'm skeptical about this claim.

    Is this a Vero 29 killer?

    You should go into hybridways and a couple others threads and see some of the lights these guys run. With cobs as a base and running red and blue monos for spectral supplementation, try to capture the Emerson effect, promoting flowering with with 730nm after dark and using Agromax Pure UV to...

    Is this a Vero 29 killer?

    Pretty much everyone here using cobs already does. Tons of examples here of people ditching their hids for cobs because they perform better at less wattage.

    Is this a Vero 29 killer?

    Lol, I'm not trying to be an asshole here. There are no pitfalls wiring in parallel. Thousands and thousands of cobs have been wired in parallel and I've not seen one single example of thermal runaway or lack of uniformity. There really is no upside to wiring in series and there is actually a...

    Is this a Vero 29 killer?

    I can't get the attachment because I am data throttled for a day or two. But from what I can infer I am very excited. I would pay a ton of money for low power, efficient monos on strips. You could mount them to the frame of an existing fixture and wouldn't even need to buy a heatsink.

    Is this a Vero 29 killer?

    Have you read the Japanese research that states plants like green when lights are intense?

    Is this a Vero 29 killer?

    If you don't even know how to power cobs then you need to check your bias. There are a ton of us here that wire in parallel right around 50 volts. If you think discreet narrow band diodes beat cobs for real world performance then you need to spend more time reading because of right now that...
