It;s good to see you come back strong after that @dequilo Your grow is looking great. Where are you gonna flower all that?
@papajerry that my friend is the 64 thousand dollar question
Today is 10/16/2022
I have come to the realization that
I have too many plants and too small of a room
I miss outside soo much
I may need to lose my Hempy buckets for now as they are to flower
I may want to flower a crop sooner
so I may do some 3 gallon grow bags with soil-less
be safe and stay tuned photos and blah blah blah to come
Dequilo
Set some to the side and maintain their trimming, keep them in veg. Flower out the room you want and put the other in the next round.
@Slym3r I am going to give them a couple more weeks and see what they
look like at that time
I was hoping to flip the light on part of the room in a couple week or so
I may have to wait a bit longer but I do want well vegged plants with good roots
for big buds
they are coming back I will feed them soon
up canned some from 1 gallon to 3 gallon pots
took these from 1 gallon to 2 gallon short on space at this time
these got a trim
lights are full
all the best and be safe
Dequilo
Wow it has been about forever
been slacking about updates as veg is veg
and I still have a day job so it has been busy rolling out
an updated network
I have some photos also a bunch of blah blah blah to go with them
but a quick question for you LED gurus
how far can I have my driver from the strip array?
I will put up my light build doing 24 - 2 foot Bridgelux strips
and a couple of Meanwell drives to cover a 4 foot by 4 foot to flower
all the best
Dequilo
how far are you talking…it’ll be about resistance x distance of the wire gauge.
First # is AWG Number, Last is resistance per Meter

I was thinking 3 or 4 meters with 16 so cord
thanks for the reply and chart
it helps
I did pickup 30 of these to do outside in 2023
Mephisto’s Wedding x Forum Stomper
since I can have 6 plants
these will be but a side note
peace and grow well
Dequilo
as if I needed more seeds
but these are calling me by name
if I live to be a Thousand years old I will not be able to grow out the seeds
I already have
so what are a few more
be safe and be free
Dequilo
So much for growing on the lay low!

Those skunks / cheeses are some seriously smelly basterds! Gets in your clothes, hair, everywhere. No matter what you do. Skunks finds their way. They really earned their name well.
RIP incognito
Oh. Never keep a gram of that in your glovebox btw. Just opening the car door after 30 seconds smells like walking into a sketchy cloudy Amsterdam coffeeshop.
But I got to give it to ya… it’s a lovely stink
what’s in a name
so no stealth
maybe next time eh?
be safe and grow well
Dequilo
more beans
these three look nice
Today is 11/18/2022
I have been updating the Network in the Factory where I am
the IT Department
I have 85 users and 75 devices on the Network so it does take time
for one person to get it done
now that it is out of the way back to surfing grow forums and learning a bit
about LED lighting
since this Monday I have been reading about different strip LED
builds and forums my brain hurts
I have come to find out what I know about LED lighting put into a
thimble would roil around like a BB in a box car
I have 24 - 2 foot Bridgelux Gen. 2 strips and a couple of HLG 185h 24 H AB
drivers which I will use to build a couple of 2 foot by 4 foot
185 watt lights to use for veg over a 4 foot by 4 foot space
they are neutral white in color so 3500k
After that I will need to build a light to flower my 4 Foot strips worked
as a prove of concept
but over all they suck ass for growing the 6000k strips are way too
blue tops look like cabbages
the other setup is not much better even with the redder LEDs mixed
in
I have my metal coming in tomorrow for the frames and it will be time
to build a couple of lights
all the best and have a super day
Dequilo
