Looking forward to watch some PAR-meter readings vid with the new panel!
And I really hope the new fans are more quiet, getting 52db out of my Mars II 400, same db with my Mars II 900s too.
Other than that I cannot complain

1: Thank you - I like it
The hard part now becomes when does a person lose their ROI (return on investment) by adding more light. Keeping in mind that number would different for those that could add more space than those that can't. IE I have more room to grow than I have comfort zone in drawing power to my house with drawing raised eyebrows. I know this will get complicated but the current standards of answering this just seem way too inadequate. Being new.........I am just learning how to answer them for myself.
2: Understood. Since plants do not grow on watts - equations to how much is needed should be by model of LED where the PAR/spectrum remain fixed. I doubt few would argue that a reflector watt (love these) equals a Budmaster GOD. Watt.
3: Exactly! Not to mention veg time and the schedule for it. So when some one tells me they grew 1g per watt........I just sigh..........
My project also includes water, nutes, initial investment ...... all the basic principles of TCO and ROI. All things I need to start tracking....and will once I am a bit more solid with my actual growing and can free up the time do so.
Hey guys ,
i ordered the mars hydro 300w (old) LED model from AliExpress , but one thing that has been keeping me worried is i don't see no IR bulbs ??
I sent an email to mars hydro asking them if the seller from AliExpress (Top LED Grow Light Co., LTD) is the same as the actual Mars-Hydro.com seller . Its been 2 weeks and i had no answer so service seems to be GREAT !
Here are some pictures i took . Hope i can get some help from you guys .
Thanks
I replaced the fans in mine with super quiet dynamic float type bearing pc fans, you cant even hear it run now, I have photos of this replacement operation if anyone is interested in seeing it
Take pictures and post them for those of us that can't make it!!!
Hello everyone here, we are going to attend the Canabis Cup in LA/San Bernardino from Feb. 7th ~8th this weekend. Everyone is welcome to visit our booth.
And professional answers here.Sorry if my post sometimes comes across as ungrateful because I am truly very thankful for the that sooooooo many of you give such great help. The main reason I think i get frustrated with some of these statements/equations is because the are simply not defined well.
What does productive growth mean?
Why are watt equations used vs PAR?
When using Watt equations why is not the actual time integrated into it. IE total Kwatts used?
Not trying to be difficult here and rock the boat but as Tech PM, THESE are the simple questions I would ask team on a new project.
Sincerely
WG
I never mind questions!
1) I define productive growth as producing vigorous flowering vegetation. When a illumination source is either too far from the plant or too weak to produce productive growth a plant begins making light airy popcorn bud instead of dense large buds.
2) While PAR ratings can tell you the amount of illumination a object is getting at measured distances a PAR meter is expensive equipment. PAR also does not measure either Ultra Violet or Infra Red light only the narrow bad of solar radiation from 400 to 700 nanometers. Actual watt per square foot recommendations are more easily used to calculate power needed for coverage.
https://en.wikipedia.org Photosynthetically Active Radiation
3) Time is not factored into the equation as the duration of light in flower 12/12 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness is consistent to induce flowering and most commonly used regardless of illumination source. Total Kilowatts of energy would vary to greatly with the illumination source, design and efficiency to give a standardized number.

King said it .... I believe it... that makes it true........
My babies are loving the new light
