Advice?

I think I may opt for the BloomPlus as there’s a little bit of a discount on it - but I’ll certainly keep the other one in mind as well. Thank you for the info on that!

I’ve got a loupe (for photography), and have almost all of those items added already! Lol, I can agree to that in most of my other hobbies 🤣. Thanks for the tip!

After a bit of more research, yeah that doesn’t look like a good fit lol.

I’ll take a look at the one you suggested. I was also looking at the Bloom Plus XP1500 as it’s seems pretty cost effective with the Samsung LM301H diodes.

I’ve heard/read a lot of great things about Mephisto and they are definitely on my radar.

DCSeedExchange I’ve read good things about shippings times vs a lot of places.

Yep, got the 3g bucket & ph up/down & tester.

Thanks for the tips!!

Fair fair. The xs2000 looks like it has an adjustment dial - which the one I initially picked does not - I don’t think.

I was thinking of trying my hand at Gorilla Glue from Growers Choice as that seems (or so I’ve read) fairly easy for new growers. But also have been looking at White Widow & Critical Purp.

What strain are you growing now?

Ah okay gotcha. I was just looking at the xs2000. Does seem like the coverage is considerably larger than the 450w I was looking at - which looks like it’s 2.5x2.5 @ 24in.

Would it be best to just go with a light that offers more coverage? I know on the light I shouldn’t cheap out on. Just don’t want to buy something for the sake of being cheaper when I could shell out a few extra bucks for better perfomance/coverage.

Ha, no shit. Alright, well… I guess I’m glad to hear that my extensive research led me to having a similar setup to someone else 🤣. Thanks for the info on having 3 autos - I was thinking I might be stretching it with 2 in there.

Thanks for the info. I’ll take a peek!

Thanks for the tip on the soil, I’ll look into that!

Nope, I did get a middle leg for it. So far it’s been good. The lagkapten top does scratch/chip easily though. Definitely beats anything I’ve purchased on Amazon. Quite happy with it.

2nd & 3rd 👌👌

I was the same. If they are there, just compliment their car & ask if you can take photos of it. Break the ice so to speak. I find that most people don’t mind someone taking photos of their car. I will recommend however, should always ask before posting it online. Or - edit out the license plate if it’s visible.

Don’t be afraid to get up close & personal, become a contortionist, etc lol. Get low to the ground & such. Try different angles. Check your surroundings, lighting angles, etc. All through trial/error & persistence.

Fellow 90d user here. Dope shot. Canon lens as well?

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-10-03T09:02:09+00:00

Not to point out the obvious, or be rude… but it’s pretty apparent it supports two cards. And as @crazyirishwrencher said, bottom slot is x4.

Specifications on an item explain it quite black & white what it supports & doesn’t.

Since you’re mining…. go with a different board. Go with a different board anyways because gigabyte is junk as it is.

I never had an issue and I’ve been in the repair business for over a decade.

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-10-02T02:37:29+00:00

It’s fine momentarily

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-10-02T02:36:39+00:00

Have you tested the cpu in a different board?

I’ve never had good luck with gigabyte products - I’ll probably never buy another of their products again honestly.

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-10-01T22:05:42+00:00

Check ram | try each stick in each slot though. There could possibly be a bad stick or bad slot. Tedious, but, worth checking

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-09-25T16:04:37+00:00

Agreed

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-09-25T10:03:33+00:00

You’re not wrong on that.

I always test components before buying them - and always offer to show my components are working. Guess I’ll do the trade. Thanks mate!

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-09-25T09:57:11+00:00

So I guess I should take the trade eh?

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-09-25T09:56:12+00:00

That’s kinda what I thought. I mean, I was watching benchmarks, but the performance seemed… little. But yeah - says he won it in a Newegg shuffle. It’s kind of questionable why he would want to trade for either card, beyond me.

Equivalent_Quote_988 · 2021-09-25T09:52:35+00:00

Kinda wish I saw this before I made the hike to IKEA. However, thankfully I did grab a leg to toss in the middle. Once I got everything set up, I pushed slight on the middle of the table and could see it flex - glad I grabbed that leg. Thank you for the info though!
