Nothing in my grow has suggested anything to be concerned about regarding the marshydro........when i started this thread a couple of guys said the Mars was shite but im a firm believer in LED and ts quality, the problem people have is they put it up, put some plants under and expect it to be the same as HPS/MH. It is nowhere near the same.......Led is more efficient with the wavelength and type of Light it emits meaning that the plants have to perform differently to thrive. this means a more detailed approach to nutes. LED is optimal growing so if you can get RH, Temp, nutes and air flow correct then you should be growing monster plants. im into week 4 of flower so ill post some pics of todays frosty developments on the leaves and the amount of sites i have and then you'll see that so far you have nothing to worry about. Dont forget you'll have to pay import tax on those units when they enter blighty.
if MJ can grow under CFLs then it will grow under LED

Should know better really so thanks so much for putting my mind at restI will make it work with the led and post pics etc to prove the haters wrong . Thanks again you are most helpful

Yep no problem. Any help I can give I will. Did you get the mars II ?? Or the marshydro? They are different. Mars II have 5w LEDs

I got the marshydro as I read the mars 2 with the 5w LEDs are not as efficient and heat becomes an issue which is what I'm trying to avoid in the tent
