Excited to see the Mars in action Carty. I have been toying with the idea of switching to LED's for a while now, but they are rather expensive and I am afraid I will be disappointment somehow. However I gotta find a way to reduce my power bill.

And just couldn't resist starting these S1 seeds of the Triangle Kush. If a breeder uses 1 strain to cross everything to,
then THAT is their stellar strain and should be grown out.. just flipped into flower at Atilla's house..

Hey brother... took me years to talk my buddy Atilla into switching to LED lighting. and he had the lights already.
2 older but daytime spectrum lights with full spectrum. took him 2 grows and now says he'll never switch back.
so now he's sitting on 10 of the 1000w hps ballasts setups..

Mar's Hydro has them in all price ranges.. they've actually come down with all the competition out there..

If your a bigger more serious grower, check out the commercial line. Let me know if your serious, see if I can get
you 10% off.. hehe.

You can't beat this light for less then $300

 

[Carty]

Ladybug and I had a little chat and when I asked her if I should do 2 strains I got " The Look " ... NO. 1 Strain.

Jeez, okay..

Blue Angel @ 6 feminized seedlings..

It's quite evident my bro over at Goat & Monkey Seeds cannot count. 10 seeds instead of 6. NICE

The new light is otw, should arrive in a few day.. I'll do an unpacking video when it does..

 

[Carty]

Light be here today... gee, think I'm a little jazzed.

 

[Carty]

Love the sound of a UPS Truck stopping out front..

Easy to install drivers
& dimmer.

I used electrical tape to secure all the lines together nice n neat

The light is hung, but I'll readjust it to raise it higher.

 

[Carty]

The light was so easy from unpacking the well packed light, to installing the drivers to hanging it.
Powered it up at 50% power. Warmed it up and now at 75%..
She's bright cranked up.

Looking good Carty. Doesn't the Mars Hydro get hot in the grow tent? Happy Growing

 

[Carty]

Not really.. it's really about air flow. And location, see we already have to run our A/C keeping that bedroom at 72f.

Drawing in cool air, exhausting out hot air thru the upper vent holes yesterday after running for hours the room was
at 78f and 60% humidity. Light at 80%. I'm pretty happy with it.

Oh and get this Ness.. The 2 Meanwell drivers on top/back of the light have extra long cables giving me the option
to locate them just outside the tent if heat is an issue. If it gets hot for me during summer, I switch and run my lights
at night, off during day.

Gonna be cool to see how they look in a week, the buds were just beginning to stack..

Carty looking yummy. What is the temp you like to use in a grow tent?

I have beans soaking in pH water. I'll be planting soon. Then I'll see what my lights will do.
