    I look for these signs before harvesting:
    • Pistils turn orange/brown and crinkle into the bud. Except for foxtails, I want to see 90%+ of the hairs turn color and crinkle in.
    • Calyx (buds) swell up like they're full of seeds. Where the brown pistils come out, it looks like the calyx is opening up and trying to swallow the pistil.
    • The smell will usually get really strong and change slightly, usually getting more skunky.
    • Branches will start sagging from the weight, especially side branches.
    • The plant will start drinking less and stay wet longer.
    Once I start seeing these signs I check the trichomes on the calyx (not the sugar leaves).

    Hello , I recently purchased a TSW2000w fitting , I normally grow with metal halide and high pressure sodium lamps and I've noticed flowering is taking a bit longer to kick off , its been about 3 weeks on 12hrs and hardly a sign of budding, is this a normal thing for LED lights do they take a little longer to kick off ?

    I've used that same light for several grows. Some strains showed pistils in just under 2 weeks & other strains took longer. I'd say the average time for most strains to show pistils is right around 2 weeks.

    Hello @Mars Hydro ,
    I was lucky enough to win a TS-1000 last week on this forum. I received, it works great but there was no knob on the dimmer. Is this something I can get sent to me?
    Hi @Mars Hydro
    TS1000 produces very leafy plants that never finish, whereas blue light side of my plant is frosty
    Does the FC series correct this anomaly?

    I will try to dig out a photo... here we go:

    Note that the right side of the plant is leafy whereas the blue side is immediately more chunky and more resinous
    More blue please

    I am not sure if the problem is generated by TS1000. Because there are other light sources that may affect the growth of the plants. No growers have found such a problem before. If you use the FC series of lights, there will be no anomalies.
    Hello Mars Hydro Team! Are you planning on releasing a UVA / UVB LED light bar anytime soon? I understand you have dropped putting UVA/UVB LED's into your lights. I am looking into getting the SP3000 and a 2x4 tent kit from you soon.

    Hello EZCalyx. We will be releasing UVB and UVA light bars soon. Please look forward to it. You can use the discount code 420Magazine when you buy the SP3000 set, which can help you save 3%. :green_heart:

    You can search it on Amazon, they sell probe sensors.

    Find me a link? Nowhere on the web lists a mars hydro replacement. I was just going to buy a new sensor and save myself the hassle of the warranty claim since this whole set up is a few weeks old…
    Hey Mars Hydro!

    I ordered my TSW 2000 cca. 2 month ago, and even if it wasn't available at EU stocks at the time, i contacted the sales and guess what, 2 days later they contacted me that the light i wanted is at stock again, so i was very happy:)
    Im pretty satisfied with the light and the Mars Hydro team too. I saw your posts here, so i was thinking, first i address my question to you, before i contact the official support. So, my problem is:
    When my light is on 75%, there are 4 more dots till 100%, but after ~85% i can't see any light increasement. Is this a normal thing, or maybe a faulty driver? And altought there is no visible light increasement, there is slight heat increasement, like it supposed to be. Sadly i dont have a lux/par meter to check things correctly. Maybe you guys at Mars Hydro heard something like this before?

    Cheers!

    Don't worry, your light is fine. Light intensity increases very little after 85% and may not be visible to the eye. It needs to be measured with a professional measuring instrument.

    The TSW 2000 rocks it ! I was pulling 9 - 11 oz. per plant with 1 light over each plant.
    You need a Lux Meter to really see the difference in brightness. I rarely put my lights over 90%. The diodes burn up faster at 100% so at 90% I get more life out of my lights.

    Thanks for the reactions guys. In the next 1 or 2 month i'm going to buy a lux meter, just to be sure everything is ok.
    I take your advice and going to use it only @90%.
    Have a nice day!
    I have a question, I am new to the forum. I purchased a TSL2000 last Friday 4/8/22, from the mars hydro official website Indoor Led Grow Lights & Grow Tents and I only received a confirmation email of my order. It is now Monday night and I haven't received a tracking number yet.

    Be patient. It will be well worth it in the long run. I've been growing about 5 years now. I've tried at least 30 different lights. There are no better mid range priced lights than Mars Hydro. I believe they have the perfect light spectrum on the TS series lights which I'm a big fan of. The TSL2000 ROCKS ! I'm using 1 now & planning to get 2 more. All my best yields (9-11 oz. per plant) were with the Mars Hydro TSW2000's.
    Same light as the TSL. Boards are just set up different. Anyway, just saying you will be very happy with the light & it's results.
