<span class="link_user">@The_Wanderer</span>, 18h autos vs 12h photos is not much of a difference in electricty. In fact, you may even get greater efficacy with a context of running lights at lower wattage over 18h vs 12h. You provide the same DLI and it costs roughly the same watts over any duraction of time. watts per umol/s produce don't shift too much. My diy led strips produce 53umol/s PAR at 0.7amps constant current and 105 umol/s at 1.4amps. Gain a percent or two of efficacy at double the power flowing through it. You lose efficacy, in general, not running a driver at full load, so that's probably more than offset.
Worrying about this environmental impact is like worrying about a pinhole leak on the titanic after an iceberg rips a gaping hole in it. The overall behaviours of everyday life, especially in more developed nations is a grotesquery of modern times. People that think they are 'green' often are far from it, but they feel super good about themselves while doing useless things. The scale of this pending catastrophe is far beyond simple acts.
heart is in the right place...
<span class="link_user">@Plagron</span> , <span class="link_user">@Patricia_Zamnesia</span> , really want to thank you guys for setting this up again and letting us do our thing with your Strain and Nutrients!! Excited to try to improve on last year's!!
Can't wait for my mailman to drop that package off!!
Best of luck everyone, just getting my stuff back up and running again this is going to be alotta fun STICKY BROCCOLI :broccoli: :upside_down_face: For the ecup was a great choice.!! Curious to see how everyone makes out with this one!!
All the best fellow lovers of the plant, happy holidays and happy New year to you all !!
<span class="link_user">@pHilosophy420</span>, yeah I’m done. I’ll do the zamnesia grow off, but no more free pics and stuff for these companies. The meme thing was a joke. This is a joke. They take weeks to even let people know then pick a past entry.
Thanks for the advice on Trichome shots, I tried to get the very tip of the head of a bud i could cut. I will try to get a better shot. You said to let it go for " at least another weeks" Were you saying single or 2 weeks? I flushed last night with 8 gal and got the TDS down to 830ppm. If I'm understanding... get a better look at the trichomes on the meaty part, when most are cloudy and about 25% amber cut all the ripe buds and see if I lower the light to finish the ones that were partially covered? Thanks Grow Buddy 😏👌
