Is there a cheap simple solution of controllable spectrum for plants? I want to set up a system controlled by Arduino and to be able to change spectrum

Great to see you home-brewing your SMT boards. The result is impressive.

I've become lazy and send my boards to a PCB service these days.

Great blog post Jose!

I'm learning a lot from your team. Are you using any of the Wurth LEDs. I have purchased a number of Red/Blue LED grow bars. But I had planned on creating additional lighting using the Wurth Re/Blue LEDs.

Your spectral power distribution chart is great. Now I will have to go back after the fact and see how my lighting stacks up. [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-ffa4f96a-40d2-4a03-92e0-ee64dadb8ec2/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]

Great looking system folks!

Cheers,

Rick
