    Mars-Hydro LED Grow Light Discussion

    Hi Sara, It's been awhile but after my last grow was trimmed and put in containers to cure I didn't want to see another plant. From a 5X9 tent with around 2000 watts of Mars Hydro lights I filled 92 liters with flower and about 1.5 lbs small flower and I don't know how much I gave away or...

    I think you have taken what was said too personal as stated these and all lower cost LED'S suffer from the same design flaw in that if your humidity is to high or the air circulation lacking moisture can get into the electronics but HPS lights use remote ballasts and are not effected. If you...

    Not to start a argument but I find it interesting that some people have several lights bought at different times that have run for over a year even some that have run over two years yet experience no trouble. There are several who have switched from hps and gotten equal or better results without...

    The LED chips are the cheap parts if you look at the photos of the pro lights that have been taken apart the drivers and other electronic parts have received a major upgrade and that's where the cost comes from. I don't care who builds it once you get to the high output multi channel sealed...

    #8 all thread with clevis eyes for hooking to, I used cap nuts on the ends and regular nuts on the clevis eye. Nice thing is by moving the eye you can change the angle of the light. If you don't have a die be sure to put a nut on the rod when you cut it so it will straighten the threads when...

    They use four points to one hanger but it uses a lot of space, most people either use chain or cord so the light will be closer to the ceiling. I made these from all thread rod the post are about 6 inches from the ends and about 16 inches apart

    That argument will never end as for plant abuse in the late 60's early 70's it was believed if you drive a wooden spike through the stalk the plant would produce stronger buds. Then a guy showed up with a degree in botany and started breeding plants and selling clones and anyone growing in the...

    Mars-Hydro LED Grow Light Discussion

    Thought I would share a couple of pictures of some abused plants, they were unattended other than water and cal/mag for over a month and grew to 7ft in a 6.5 ft tent the lower half of the plants were basically dead from lack of light and nutrients, tops were deformed from growing into the lights...
