  50,000 hours (10 years @ 12/12) MTBF by the datasheet! the single boards run at about 70°C Max, way less if dimmed.

PM me if you need help. i'll be happy to guide.

  COB's are pretty awesome. Here is my 6x Citizen CLU-048 1212 chips ran @ 33w each  @ 36v (can handle 50w ea) * ~915 ma. Around 650-700 PPFD @ 16". Built this to cover a 6ft table   Here are 2x Folux Helios FH-120 boards ran @ 50w @ 48v * 1050mA each (can handle 150 watts) in a 3x3x6.5ft Grow...

  thank you. they are 1 gallon pots for the larger cylinder ones. the smaller ones are 4"^3

and 16 days later.  

  Thanks!

  Til they fruit or until they are sold to the locals haha. The Pueblo Chiles are easily the fastest grower, then the ghost, then the SB7J. Will be adding some different types here soon

Alright guys and gals. Here is about 20 days worth of growth under the COB setup!  

It's incredibly easy. You just need some type of sweet hot sauce, pectin, sugar, jars, and a canner. I have not tried it with a savory/fermented sauce yet, but I'm sure it'd work! Here is the original recipe if you want to share it...

  Whenever I build another one I'll take pictures and what not. but in the mean time, watch this and everything else by him.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQdTHO-YbX4

I love building things, particularly electronics. That lead me to building a grow light of my own. I used to be an HID kinda guy; think of High Pressure Sodium, LEC, and the like. LED lighting has never been for me as far as the red, purple, blues (think of Mars Hydro, Black Dog, KindLED, etc)...

that's another blurple. 2 of those would work but if you're going LED you want either COB (this type: http://timbergrowlights.com/) or some of those boards. they are DIY type lights just so you know, so some assembly is required. I would either stick with 2x of those quantum boards, a timber...

you could light up that 5x5 (same size I have) with a 630 watt CMH or two of the LED I linked. with that 4x8 you could grow way more as its 32 sq ft instead of 25. A rule of thumb I like to go by:   50w/ sq ft HPS 40W sq ft MH 30W/ sq ft LED/COB 35W sq ft CMH/LEC 60w/ sq ft cfl

  large grow spaces require lots of light! with that much grow area packed with plants growing from start to finish you would need  around 3000 watts of light (10 of those lights)! Good thing they make light movers. If you just want to do a corner of it, why not make it into a room dedicated to...

  yeah LED is expensive but the power savings (at least for me) are paying for it. T5HO are decent for vegging plants however you would need a good deal of them to grow any meaningful harvest. the CMH/LEC lights that Juanito's suggested are also very good for start to finish.

sending out my biggest order of Painapple to a certain place that I cant disclose right now. fun times. Also working on pricing for Atom Splitter.
