Indoor DiY Citizen 300w Cob - gorilla glue auto

[Burn victim]

thanks Burn.

really looking forward to see why these cobs can do.
Last time I tried a LED it was a Lighthouse Blackstar 240w uv. And it was total garbage.

but I've heard and read good things about Cobs.

You’ll love them , they grow awesome! I run citi cobs & quantum boards & love them both . How much did your light cost to build if you don’t mind ? Every component looks top notch!

I didn't kept a exact total but I would it is in the region of £330.
still cheaper than the telos 8 I was going to buy.

might look into the quantum boards as ideal if this works well I'm going to build a dedicated flower and veg boards.

This board is all 3500k cobs

Hi Guys,

quick Update

Cob led is up and running I switched the 1400cA driver for the 1400cB so I could wire a dimmable switch.

My god this light bright!!

I have 5 gorilla glue beans that have been in the fridge for a couple days and are now being germ'd.

I've decided to run shogun silicon in my nute schedule as temps are very hot lately so this should allow me to run in the low 30C's if the need arrises.

here's a few pics of the light up and running.

Hey guys

never quick Update.

So all 8 beans are just above ground, I'm only running 4 so will pick the best of bunch and let a friend have the others.

So far they have had only PH6 water with full strength rhizotonic.

the Cob led panel is running at about 40% 125w.

temperatures are high here atm but will be dropping this week but I'm still going to run shogun silicon as part of the nute recieme.

Will update again soon.

Temps is really the biggest problem for indoor growing in summer, hope it will be cooler soon
