You may win a prize Devill if you were not sick

Who knows?

I'll make the videos and photos anyway it will be good advertisement for mars hydro

 

[Skullman420]

Planted 16 more Trains Wreck clones in the Mars Hydro tent. Will try to flower them earlier this time to avoid running out of room

 

[Skullman420]

Thinking about a cob for a 4x4.

What about making it bigger so you can distribute the light more even? What if we could get the same par values in all parts of the tent? Same applies to potential future quantum boards. That would be a dream come true

Do you want to update HPS to led?

Dats the plan. But not with purple light thank you.

Hey guys quick question, which light would be best for a single plant in a 22" x 32" or roughly 2 x 2.5 feet, the mars proII epistar 120 or the reflector 96? Would the 120 be too powerful for that space? Thanks!

I have just recently upgraded from a 96x3 to a 120 with roughly the same space,The 96 covers that space well,I'll have a look and see if I can find a photo for you

 

[Planter420]

I was thinking that too I looked at the par charts on mars website and the 120 seems a bit much compared to the 96. And the 96 actually has the shape down perfectly!

This was a 2 plant scrog I just done recently

 

[IrNlung]

I've just started a 1 planter to see how it handles it,We'll soon find out lol

To be honest,I've only used it on the grow spectrum at the moment as when I flipped the bloom switch on the room temp shot up from 24c to 29c..Any other ProII user's had this?

Yes. My Pro II 160 in a 2x4 tent went to 30C with both on & I had to rethink ventilation. I rerouted my exhaust to eliminate 2x90 that was reducing outflow & I added a 6" fan outside the tent blowing into one of the lower rectangle vents as inflow. And I put a screen on my front view port & I leave it open during lights on. I also have another 6" inside the tent for circulation. Now I max at 23C.

I think the 96 will run cooler that would be a huge problem for me with the 120 I believe. Thanks fellas. Those plants in the scrog look great bro! .

Running pro || 320 in a 4x4, temp hover around 25 with my inline on the lowest setting

 

[IrNlung]

Thanks Ian! I had kinda sussed I had to do something about my intake so I've pushed another line into my closet,Guess that will be another fan on order lol

 

[daggersstrain]

Won't be long mine will be down. Man it's been a long wait lol

 

[Pennywise]

My Epistar 160 run warm with both switches on but only had the 4" inline extractor running.

 

[Mars Hydro]

Working on the next grow. 16 more Train Wreck in a 4x4 Mars Hydro tent.

Still plenty of work left to do, but will finish by tomorrow. Then i will keep these 3 grow spaces running until I can afford to build a 64 plant flowering room

The big bud clones are already starting to react to the COB.

It i a good set up
