Double PC LED grow 70W/50W

Hello everyone :dance013:

Let me introduce you my 2 PC boxes:

Day about 20 18/6

Soil:
-ordinary garden substrate(20L/5USD) with a little chicken shit granulas
-im using 1,5L and 1,2L pots
-every 3 pots are in one reservoir for about 1.5L of water so when i need, i can leave flowers alone for few days :woohoo:

Fertilizers:
-Alga Bloom 5ml/l once a week during flowering - ???should i more times???
-Vita-race for spray once week (old Phytamin)
-chicken shit granulas deep in substrate

More about light:
-Its DIY. Some chips on the top and some vertically on one side. Im using 3W Epistar chips bought on ebay. The are the cheapest, all leds cost me about 35USD(for cca 60 chips i have). Flowers are growing on them so i guess they are ok. Cause they are attached by thermoglue (4USD/50g), you can hold hand on them.

-For powering i use 200W(yes space for expansion or other box:biggrin:) LED DRIVER for 24USD, adjustable 11-13V by potenciometer -- Thats why i have 70W and 50W box because im powering them exactly 12V and they have this consumption even they are 3Wchips). Now both boxes takes 120W together. I also have one small FAN which is cooling led driver. Its was getting hot a little :)

Clones
-DIY from original feminized seeds

Now im thinking about swich 12/12 around day 24, im expecting harvest 8weeks from that :blowbubbles:

Like the use of cd spindle for carbon scrubber. I'm gonna try it on my tower. Do you notice any smell using this setup?
