I only know of one other light source that does a better job than these 3590 LED'S.
These look beautiful!Well things seem to be moving along pretty well. First grow with LED's and went with a DIY setup with 18-3590 COBS and the drivers to go with them. I've got 13 different varieties going. I had planned on thinning them down to 9 but I didn't have the heart. I'm also using this first run to refine my training techniques. I've LSTed, Topped, FIMed, and super cropped. I'm just stunned at the density of the growth and the tightness of the nodes. I flipped at five weeks from 20/4 to 12/12 last night so off we go. I'm thinking things are going to work out just fine.

I guess I'm just excited. I generally like to keep my grows to myself as much as possible but I also think I need to share with other kindred spirits./Bone Heads.
Hard to know if it's working or if the lights are. IDK.
Seems like RIU died (?!?!) a few days ago, so there may be a few more DIY COB builders migrating to other sites...?
Looks like you could make it, at least 1+ g/w. Is the canopy full under the lights? I'm actually running 2-400w cob fixtures and 2-750w de hps alternating cob-hps-cob-hps. The cob plants finish faster, by as much as 3-4 days on an 8 week strain. The nugs are more dense and colorful than their hps counterpart as well. I'm transitioning to 100% cob.Rock On Tex. I've got 900 watts going but I'd be pleased to yield 1.3g per watt. IDK if I'll make it this run but these COB's are making for some very healthy girls. I've been making them bend to my will just for a non scientific study in physical manipulation. So Tex are you giving your COB'S any supplemental lighting or do you think they stand on their own? I think the next 8 weeks is gonna be a blast. I have no doubt that I'll do ok and there is nothing like tending flowering plants. I'm always in awe of the whole thing. They are stout little lasses. POSSIBLY your right about screwing around just for the sake of screwing around. Why.. cause it's fun.

To my knowledge GPW is dried, cured, ready to smoke flowers. .5/w is considered pretty average for most growers. 1gpw is great, and above 1gpw can be had with certain strains, experience, and training techniques.quick question about g/w
What weight is being used?
Wet harvest weight of stem and all?
Market ready cured bud?
Or a variety of intermediate stages?
I cure and de-bone before weighing.
I'm only getting a little over .5g/w this way.
Should I aspire to get twice this yield?
