The set up that RR describes is total overkill for cubes. You could grow a small crop of MJ with all that fucking light. Not necessary at all.




I wouldnt say thats overkill, a mini greenhouse can hold many many trays. Those lights ensure that light can penetrate the casing layer to the substrate.




Well you wouldn’t say anything that goes against RRs beliefs in any way. You basically paraphrased a portion of RRs post so your statement is irrelevant anyway.

And if I have interpreted the orientation of RRs lights correctly the number of trays has absolutely nothing to do with anything.

I had a set up similar to RRs, only I didn’t use foil, and had a two bulb 48" T8 ballast that was directed to the face of the greenhouse with daylight 6500k bulbs. I found no difference at all between using one bulb and two bulbs.

RR grows things other than cubes so maybe he needs it, but I can’t help but think that if he cut his light down by 50% or 75% he wouldn’t notice any difference in cube flushes.

Purchasing an expensive four bulb ballast, and then even throwing foil up to reflect the light is completely unnecessary for what the majority of the people here are trying to do.

I think its getting pretty close, not that long ago i was testing the led version of a stage par can. It could produce thousands of colours, by variying the intensity of the 3 primory colours. It had alot of led bulbs, i thin the 3 colours ver stagared in a triangle formation

Alot of the colours looked very cold.

Ide love to see a fully LED set up just to see the outcomes like a controlled test.
