Indoor Northern Grow Lights - Test Team Home - DIY build and Grow

You could use the eyeometer. Mine work pretty damn good at figuring wattage.

My point was that it should have been hooked up correctly to the potentiometer in the first place.. hopenit is hooked up now

His light has a working potentiometer. Separately we both bought amp meters to hook up inline to see the actual draw directly on the light as we adjusted them up and down.

update:
Week 3, Day 5
plants are loving my light! The Ducksfoot in particular is looking awesome! I'm seeing better growth with 1/3 the watts I was using in this tent!

Even the damaged plant has taken off after only a 4 day pause to recover! She's grow over an inch in the last 24 hours. I transplanted the seedling last night and she too has grown already!

The 2 largest plants are on the res now. Nutrient solution is 400 ppms of Grow More Sea Grow and 90 ppms of cal/mag for a total 490 ppms. I'll be keeping the res between 450 -550 ppms thru the grow.

I attribute this to not transplanting them and starting them in their final pot.. I noticed them flowering faster when I started doing it this way
