I was having the same kind of issues with my AC infinity controller. Used it to control my Mars hydro light cycle and it worked great for about 5 months. Then I noticed when the light was suppose to be off it was staying on the lowest dim setting instead of actually off. I believe it’s the actual dimmer on the light causing the issue because now I control it with a timer outlet instead of the Ac controller and of course it goes off and stays off but when I manually turn it off using the dimmer knob it will come back on and off randomly. Not sure if using the AC controller on it for those few months if it caused the dimmer to malfunction or if it’s just a Mara Hudro issue that would have shown it’s face eventually on its own. Sucks because I’d like to get it fixed but can’t part with the light while it gets repaired and for them to send a loaner light while this one is being fixed they charge a deposit and shipping for the loaner. Still does as it should using the timed outlet so I’m gonna let it roll and eventually I’ll upgrade I suppose.

I do know that it's impossible to see anything in the grow space with those lights on after my eyes have adjusted but it makes me nervous too.

I am running a Sonofarm SF4000Pro in there.

What a waste of money on a 'smart controller '. If it did the same thing with your Mars Hydro then it's the controller not the LED.

I guess it's time to go back to a reliable mechanical timer.

Edit: I do have a really nice PPFD meter and I haven't tested it yet but I'm thinking mechanical timer to be absolutely certain it's dark.

Edit #2: Sh!t I just realized that I'm still going to need the dimmer controller plugged in. I have a feeling it's somehow drawing power from that but I guess we'll see after I get the mechanical timer installed.

My controller draws its power from the exhaust fan connection. It came with the 6in AC carbon filter/fan combo. I would say you could still control the dimming function with the controller 69 just fine and run the power through the timer to just cut out the electricity to the lights ballast in dark periods. That actually just dawned on me myself and I think I’m gonna hook it back into in on mine as well and use it with the timer.

I just switched to a mechanical timer and it looks like some LEDs are still glowing but I had the door open.

Tonight I will look again with the webcam I have set up in the grow room. That's how I noticed it in the first place.

It looks like the LED is drawing power from the dimmer controller plugged into my Cloudline system.

Anybody here grind up defol to make tea? Should I just use a little sugar and lacto Bacillus?

I'd imagine they make a great fpj for veg.

If I'm going to be defoliating a lot I like to juice the leaves.  The juice is really strong, but you can dilute it with carrots and apples or take it like a wheatgrass shot.

I used to use defoliated leaf for juice from time to time as well, but my masticating juicer had a hard time chewing through the tough fibers and I didn't particularly like the juice either so I figured even though it has health benefits it's probably not worth breaking my juicer over.

Oh and yes you gotta dilute that shit with carrots or apples cause it's really not something to happily chug down. Plus if you put a few leaves, then a few carrots, then a few leaves again, it's going to be somewhat easier on the juicer IME. Definitely not a good idea to cram too many leaves in the juicer at once.

I have no experience with using leaves for a tea, but if you're going to use it with lactobacillus and sugar, might as well substitute the sugar for molasses if you ask me (if you have some molasses anyway)

I snapped this webcam photo last night and it's official for my LED. It's drawing just a tiny amount of power via the dimmer control from the 69 cloud controller. It's much dimmer now that it's on a mechanical timer but there's still a glow as you can barely see.




I'm going to have to skip using the cloud controller entirely and rely on manual settings. :fork:

I doubt that glow is putting out anything readable by my Vibara VB-200 PAR meter but I want to err on the side of certainty.

Does your Mars Hydro have a Meanwell driver?

#Edited the picture cuz you couldn't make out the glow

The light levels that disturb cannabis plants in their dark period are indeed not measurable by regular PAR meters.

IIRC, Dr Bugbee needed to start a company that makes light meters sensitive enough to measure those levels basically because there were no meters sensitive enough available to them to conduct the research he needed to get done. They sell those meters too though. Haven't a clue on price.

edit: looked it up, it's Apogee instruments, founded by Bruce Bugbee in 1996.

Is that set-up meant to hide the smell of shit, recycle the shit into nutrients, or to provide a natural leafy toilet paper?

Or is it all of the above?

Aeroponic cloners really are easy mode. I've had near 100 percent success rate with just pH balanced tap water. All I do is pH balance every few days and change the water maybe once a week. Been keeping the room at 68 degrees and about 65 humidity. A little warmer and more humidity would be better probably but it's working great as is.

My buddy gave me 4 cuttings and all 4 rooted. He tried about 10 of his own in rapid rooters and managed to kill them all. Now he's asking for one back 😂.

Well....

I remember telling another member I fooked up a grow in the past by re-using dirt and amending it. And I also said I thought it would not happen this time because I amended it with some primo nutrient rich compost.

Well after a couple of days of the plants looking shittier and shittier, I'm thinking this compost wasn't completely ready after all.

Checked the PH levels with a few strips, got a 7 so I dumped some of that vinegar smelling lactobacillus culture in there until it dropped to between 5 and 6. Also added some Final Solution (a nutrient scavenging enzyme product) to help clean up.

Really hoping that fixes it. Keeping an eye on it. They're still drinking from the tray but when they finish up their current beverage I'll be doing a flush with the same beverage from the top down and probably discard the water once or twice before it's back to normal.

Should fix the issues I'm having, I really really really hope.

Not completely sure it's from the compost thing though. Part of me wonders if I kept em wet for too long. Also wonder if my nutes may have risen in pH over time. IIRC that is what happens when nutes age, but maybe I am mixing up the direction of the pH movement. Oh well. We'll see where this goes I guess.

Buds for Xmas is not going to happen. Neither for NYE. Good thing I have some distillate on hand.
