Questions on Mars II LED Grow Light 400W

[pmed420]

Hi everyone, hope you're all doing well.

I have a question regarding the Mars II LED grow light. Mine has two switches: One for the Vegetative ( Blue, White and Red )and one for Bloom ( Red and White ).

It's been 2 weeks now that I started flowering my beautiful plant under the flowering bloom switch and I realized that I'm actually able to turn both switches on.

My question is : Should I only use the Bloom spectrum or both ? I believe that if i turn both on it increases heat but i'm not sure if that helps the plant.

Any thoughts/suggestions ?

Just use the veg switch to save on power use during veg. Use both during flowering to get the full spectrum and more par watts

Thank you so much. I noticed that my grow room temp rose from 25 degrees to 30 degrees. Is this OK for flowering ?

During flowering stage,we recommend customer must turn on both switches,Mars II series lights,each switch control party of the fans and if you turn on both switches,will give your plants more power,"more lights,more buds" ,plants always enjoy of more lights.If the temperature rise up in your growing room,you can add a fan in your growing room or make your home temperature under control.

I an ideal world you want your flowering temps lower than your veg.

I have two fans and I even turned the exhaust fan speed to try and reduce temperature but I'm able to have it at 29 degrees. I still find it too hot :S

Hi, i use Mars light too, im curious to know if you have the same problem : do you use timer probably? Did you check in the night time when the timer is off if some leds are still glowing a little bit?

Hey Fred. Sorry for my previous reply I was high af and not clear. My light cycle is 12-12 and and the temperature drops to 24-25 degrees when the lights are off. One thing is for sure - no lights glow during night time

They give an excellent customer service. I'm sure they'll be able to help you out. And let me know if they do fix it ! If you turn the switch off then there shouldn't be any lights ...

May i know which model you are using now?
