I NEED to SEE THAT...in a timely fashion plz.. another thing..let me be clear... STELLER RESULTS TO ME mean... doing it in a fashion that others CAN'T...Whereas MY production is in a level of its own...side by side .????.2 week veg from 6 inch clone...can YOU??? harvest an oz and a half to 2 Oz's top shelf.???.. dry,trimmed and manicured ? ANYONE can veg a plant for many months and do just fine..but in those many months I'm into the next grow...and the.....MORE HARVEST ,MORE YIELDS... Side by side.???..with all your powerful great lights..???..you should go figure out your plants transpiration rate and do something with their EXTRA ENERGY....Happy Grows!
That's nothing spectacular. Most tent scroggers are doing that every run.

Thanks man. We haven't seen really anything at all on these newer Mars fixtures. So let's see what they can do. These aren't $800 lights, claiming 2000watts, for double chip slug diodes with "full spectrum".
To me, Mars has listened to the backlash and aren't being shady anymore. They clearly state everything on their fixtures.
Haha. Imagine if that was their updated slogan. "Mars; we aren't being shady anymore." Or, "Mars; now with 75% less shade." "Mars; we've heard the backlash, and adapted our shading techniques."

(Guys, do I have to put a .". like that? Fuck, haha.)

Anyway, It's good to at least see what the brownie tray can do :)

Thanks for pointing that out.. I forgot about them...make one hell of difference... WHICH MAKES IT EVEN HARDER...give a shot.. Happy Grows!

Hey guys, I picked up these 2 Mars Hydro TSL2000 fixtures and wanted to document the progress from freshly rooted clones to harvest.

These will veg for probably a month and then will be flipped. I expect good things as they're dimmed to 50% already and are still far too bright. Luckily I have the head room to raise em up.

Will keep this journal going and you can expect frequent updates.

And do you have an estimation of what this crap yields...? With a month veg? Keep me updated! Happy Grows!

i would not compare 2-3-4 fixtures of MarsHydro leds with high-end HPS fixtures...
For sure the end product will be better with the HPS
I think these Leds are mostly an alternative for someone that does not want to use HPS lights anymore and doesn't mind sacrifice abit of yield/quality of the end product


So far i have 2x100w HLG fixtures, they did impress me with their efficiency/economy and the yield was very good too. But i can't compare it with my HPS light even at same watts i believe my magnetic HPS would give better bud.


Keep us updates Airwalker16, im really interested to see what this light can produce

Have a Happy new year everyone with health and lots of buds!!

Plant count means fuckall as far as yield goes. You just get tons of tiny nugs(colas arent one unless you’re growing small plants, You fucked up growing them, or you’re leaving them as multiple buds because you like that it looks bigger and curing them fucked compared to everything else) instead of a bunch of good sized ones. I run both systems so not talking shit about sog, just different, but twice as many plants and pulling the same just means you both utilize canopy space the same. Bet his veg time is less, which probably also means he gets through more cycles faster and yield more bud per year..... granted, that’s going to be how efficient your grow is and whether you’re ready to flower straight out of your past cycle. My plants have to adjust to the more intense light so there’s no way I’m flowering day 1 when everything goes into my flower rooms.

I veg under the same kind of lights that I flower with so no issue for ME... Happy Grows!

Isn’t there an identical light to the SP series with high grade diodes? I believe I saw pictures before I was aware of the new Mars offerings. Sold in Europe only? Just asking.

I thought I remember seeing a unit farm branded version of it being tested by someone with Cree and Osram chips about a year ago. I searched for it and it's harder to find any current info on it as its not on unit farms.website atm.

You mean just a large heatsink of that shape with boards on it?
