- anything I can get my hands on!
Hey Now!
So here I am, I had been off the site for a bit, life gets in the way you know... Just about 420 day I came back and jumped right in to Live Stoner Chat, the deep end indeed. That's where I ran into @BigSm0 and his "Autocobs". He was having a contest for a giveaway and right then I decided I gotta get me some of these! And that's how it started.
I took advantage of the sale and bought a bundle of four complete lights. They came almost the next day! (advantage of living in the next state). It was love at first photon. I was like Oh Man!! I think it took all of twenty minutes to de-install the HPS cool tube and associated ducting and then 5 more to connect up and arrange the wires on the autocobs and zip-zop we had light! They have been running ever since. Heck I think I might even be able to get rid of the 4, 4ft. T5 that I have one of in each corner! Wow.
At this point I am convinced. The flowers are amazing at this point and it's only been about 24 days of these. The best is the temps. I built a 10'x10' room in my basement for gardening. I have two tents in there and it would get to hot to grow in the summer. Well it hit 92 F yesterday, both tent going 4 cobs in each tent. Room temp was 80 and the temp at the canopy was 85 F. How great is that!
If you have been following any of the threads here you prolly know I couldn't stop with the four autocobs. I went and bought four of the "almost done" heatsink/mount/COB combos for sale on the site. I purchased an appropriate driver to run all four. These are installed in the veg tent now.
I'll try to add some details later and a few pictures.
