From The Ground Up, Let's Go!

@Billyboat , how do you like the Epaps?

I don't like them at all. This is my last run in the flower rooms with them. I'm going all nanolux. From the veg room to the flower rooms.

 

[DapperDon]

If you don't mind me asking what you didn't like about them as well as to why you are switching to Nanolux?

My epap room is my lowest yielding room. I moved them to 4 foot on center for this run.
At 5 ft on center 2.25 a light was difficult when the nano's are 3+ all day long.

 

[DapperDon]

Really? And you can attribute that to the lights themselves for the low yield?

 

[Billyboat]

Yes sir. I've ran 20+ strains under them, strains I'm very familiar with and every time the Epaps come out lite. Good luck getting any warranty work done on them. Nanolux all the way.

That is very interesting to know. I always though that they seemed a little "off" when I have seen them in the shop but have never seen one in a grow. I hope you have better success with the Nano's. I hear good things about them and will be interested in seeing how they perform.

The nano's kick ass, they perform great. No debate about that.

Digging the setup. Pulleys, water automation, etc, etc. Wish I had some more veg space to actually get some plants this size.
Very impressed~

I like the nano's for the price savings.

The nano's seemed to have gone up in price a bit but a better bulb and reflector is now used compared to the ones I bought about 10 months ago

 

[DirtySanchez]

Bill whatchu getting the Nanos for if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Smokey503ski]

Hey Billy, curious if you plan on playing with the 315 CMH lights in the near future?
Your grows amaze me.

All good just figured with so many you purchased i would of got a better deal lol ..
being in Canada and dam currency exchange kills a person its like extra 32 dollars on the 100 which adds up big time for big purchases

Your awesomeness inspired me to finally buy my first 624 the other day. I'll definitely be getting more :punch:

I have 4 624's running and they have really given me peace of mind for when I'm not around or want to actually take a day off.

My favorite feature is being able to check the light meter during the night cycle to make sure nothing is screwing up, and since it data logs it, you can see a week at a time.

I really like being able to cut off all the fans and dehuys when I foliar spray. Before I would have to come back a few hours later to cut the equipment back on. Now I use the the phone interface to be able to remotely cut those devices back on remotely.

They work really well, they aren't perfect, but I can't complain.

 

[Billyboat]

Excited for this test...
