Looks like a LEON LED? if so how's it doing? 

I'm impressed to be honest, might actually do more business with them. I'm looking at getting some space for a bigger veg room and I might get one of their bigger LEDs. So far so good and the price is very reasonable compared to other leds on the market, and the extra features are neat, i can save on some timers and space with the built-in scheduled timer. would diffinatly recommend them

Hopefully you can see what I was aiming for, I managed to run my whole setup off one plug. All wiring goes from my "control board" into the tent through the one vent, then into some electrical piping, then out just above the fan and to the desired devices. Never mind my lady frame sunnies, it works piele under the LED's

Love the creativity might even try something similar 

All the best with the grow 

You can also take a plank and drill one hole on each side and tie some type of string to it and to the roof of your tent for a "floating" shelf

What? What wires

You clean brother, squeaky clean. 

Neh man just look at your and @PsyCLown setup. You guys setup is actually going to make me get off my ass and actually do something about my grow space. stay tuned 

Wires alover the place. Will tidy things up in this tent through out the weekend and than I ll post an update. My problem with this grow is the lung room is very small to start with, and tent isn't the biggest either

Haha, in that case...

You show us yours first

Sure most members, and you've seen mine, I'm not sure if that is considered clean or untidy

You do not want to see any of mine trust me  

SO is your tent/room organized? Is your electrical cords well placed or are they like mine all over the place?

Let us see how you organize your grow spaces, let us know how you setup your fans, your lights or just how you organize your electrical cords & lets help members with ideas for their own space and safety

Yay! So glad you safely received it! Thank you @The_StonedTrooper for making that happen and this whole setup you organised. And also a thanks from us to @Stefan and @Marzcannafor both of your contributions

This endeavor is also a means to show that we should not stray from that which Canna represents (peace, sharing and caring), a community created through love and peace. Not sure the newer generation is familiar with Bob Marley, but the old-schoolers here should know what I mean. Let's try to have more of these giving back events

Wise words and I totally agree, count me in the next one

Will be using my Phantom Cab as per the linked post - but here are my internals:

Internals
Depth (mm)	425
Width (mm)	550
Height (mm)	1164
m^2	0.23
m^3	0.27
ft^2	2.52
ft^3	9.61

 

Haha @Marzcanna thanks, yeah I've run her through a few grows and she's done really well. As big as you can go for a little cabinet.

I'd like to add some upgrades this time - want to throw in an IR thermometer to get the canopy temp (also allows me to see when the plants have absorbed as much light for the day as they can - temp spikes around 2-3 degrees at this point), and a nice wideangle cam for timelapse shots

What cam you thinking about because the one i got was total rubbish thinking i was getting something good  so Im looking for something better

Update the original post with my lighting info, but here it is:

Lighting			Lighting Calculations
COBs x	Vero 29 SE 3500K		Per COB			Overall
Driver	HLG-240H-C2100B		lm/w	143
Heatsink (mm)	500x150		Watts	79		237
Fan	92mm 12v		umols/J	1.94
Number of Cobs	3		Driverloss	10%
FV	37.6		PPF	138		414
Amps	2.1		PPFD	539		1618
			DLI (12h)	23		70

Basically I will dial it in to get around 60DLI - no point in being much over.

Dry is just a follow on of wet weight, guys can guess dry weight too if they want.

Very nice specs, i see you going big

Good day everyone.... I am a part time grower for self consumption. I have grown indoor and currently my first outdoor. Though I started late...2 off my ladies are at 3 weeks flowering and they are White widow strain and I have other 2 that I have not sexed yet  and am not sure what strain they are as I got them from a very old grower in the rural part of Eswatini.....hopefully they Sativa.... 

Welcome to the family bro

Hi, 

Is that a HLG-185H-C1050B driver with F-series Gen 3 strips?

 

I'm not sure about the strips except it's lm301bs and it is a HLG 185 driver not sure about the rest will have a look at the driver later

How much did they charge you for this light?

4500 Bru, watts is 200, which isn't what i would normally go for but for this tent and run I think its enough power

Weekly Update

What's growing on growmies!!

So! Ladies entering their week 3 of flower and Ive stopped f***ing with them for almost a week... OK Maybe just a very minor leave defol here and there, but honestly it's mostly already dead leaves or leaves that look unhealthy  there was however a bigger issue at play...

THE Lights!!!


Yea the lights.... Well if you can recall earlier at the start of this grow diary I said I was going to test 2 lights right? OK, but I didn't say anything about not adding more power 

Ok so cool, "we bringing in reinforcements" I said to myself   ....

The problem is I didn't have any spare  and you know what that means right  

 Well there I was... looking through all the price lists..."not cool at all" ... I thought to myself.  "Do they get these lm301 chips off a rock, thats under the deepest cave some where on a desserted location with no means of getting through the dense jungle by plane" cause LEDS seemed over priced on the market! ofcause that was my own thought and so since its my head, I don't care what people think LED prices should be 

So anyway going through these lists  I came a cross a company that build custom made LEDS, I found this interesting and procced to find out more... Long story short... I decided to get a custom made LED

Introducing the Leon200 4 Short

It came equipped with powerful LM301Bs chips, Wifi Controller and Light Timer

In combination with the lights I already had running I think this would be enough power for this grow

OH Yea! I almost forgot the ladies are doing just fine on their week 3 of flower

Leaving me, Peanut butter and Jealous here

Sexy setup and good for you brother

Yea sure is  I'm planning to get into perpetual growing again so sniping some ideas for a new grow room

sooooo, 

just like that some space opens up, been wanting to get a perpetual thing going for a while now. 

there's an earlier thread of mine where I built a veg box, since then I moved and didn't have space to put it back up. 

finally got space, but thought it's time to retire the box. still got all the parts so it's just put aside for now.

here she is 

so now this is veg area, got the little 50w flood light in there too for what it's worth

Nice man love the setup

Just topped both of these at the 5th node, growth is looking good to me so far

Nice and tidy top  

 As @Pandy mentioned, profile also looks fake. At least in our country its still a risky game being openly exposed to the public like that. This isn't what we stand for, scaming people is just one of the many reasons why people point fingers at us for what we do, and it really comes down to irresponsible idiots like this guy. 

Umya Cal - mag works well, I have a buddy on international forums that made his own Cal - mag and he's stuff looks really good, the plants I mean the product it self looks very diy. I have not tried it myself. Here's the recipe, you might need to convert it, but for the sakes of sharing here it is

@Marzcanna Interesting, won't go into it too much as it is a bit off topic but it seems it might be more aimed at heat and plant transpiration when moving away from the HID's which generate more heat as well as the older LED tech, possibly the blurple lights and not so much the newer and now common quantum boards / LED strips which run full spectrum LEDs such as the Samsung LM301b/h etc.

 

@The_StonedTrooper Coco has cation sites, part of the reason why one needs to buffer their coco before use to avoid the coco from leaching calcium and magnesium from the nutes / feed you are giving your plants.

The calcium and magnesium replace the potassium and sodium which is naturally found in coco, they basically have a stronger bond than the potassium and sodium.

Yes you might be right I did come from HPS and during the early days of LEDs, I do agree that modern LEDs might not be as bad but to be fair, I haven't run into many Cal - mag issues but there has been strains that did show some Cal - mag issues even with my LM301Bs and Hs, but I will say not as nearly as much as early LEDs. 

Looking good bro, all the best with the grow

Thanks man  Yeah always been keen to get the TDS pen also. But first on the wish list is a proper soil ph pen (blue lab)   I love having numbers and stats, PH, TDS, EC, PPM anything  Just a pity they are all so expensive (or at least the proper ones. 

I know things can really stack up at the end of the day. I was buying things on a month to month bases

There's a few around, I can't seem to find the proper study I read, will come across it eventually. But I also like the above one, say LEDs offer a smaller spectrum of light. Certain wavelengths the plant requires to generate calcium are absent
