How does this spectrum compare to the HLG 550 and the Spider Farmer SF 4000? The Mars Hydro utilizes a combination of 3000K-3200K & 6000K-6500K. Some growers prefer the 6000k range for vegging and 3000K range for flowering. With that said, spectrum isn’t a completely settled science, and so that’s why you see so many variations between different grow lights. Please also consider the intensity of your Mars Hydro LED grow lights when calculating your monthly cost. Many cultivators who install Mars Hydro LED grow lights use the dimmer option for germination, seedling, and vegetation, which will reduce your total wattage.
From their broader light spectrum to their lower ambient heat, LED grow lights have many attractive features for indoor plants cultivators. However, most customers convert to LED grow lights because of their lower cost — especially their energy efficiency. Introducing the groundbreaking Mars Hydro TS3000 LED Grow Light, a slim, powerful, and highly efficient lighting solution that has redefined the LED Grow Light landscape.
Q & A
Spider Farmer’s 2.9 micromoles per Joule is at the very high end of efficiency compared to most other grow lights that typically fall between 1.5 and 2.4 uMol/Joule. Fanless design
Every grow light’s intensity at a given height is different, that’s why you need to determine these numbers by looking at the manufacturer provided chart or by using a Lux meter. If every grow light was the same, I’d be able to tell everybody to hang their light “xx inches from the plants.” The TS3000’s reflector style has been patented, and it can successfully gather light spread in all directions to increase light intensity and help plants absorb more light by reducing light lost to aisles and walls, increasing the light intensity up to 20%, allowing your plants to receive more energy without burning your plants for maximum headroom Dimming And Daisy Chain Capability: The best growing area for this light is 5 feet by feet for veg and 4 feet by 4 feet for flowering. If you are using a 5×5 grow tent this light is perfect for you. You will not have to buy other lights to supplement veg vs flower stages as an example. Full Spectrum Lighting With A Twist If your grow light is dimmable, you may be able to dim the light instead of adjusting the light’s distance from your plants. Again, the most critical aspect of this whole process is having a Lux meter handy so you can measure, convert and compare the light intensity levels to the actual light intensity levels your plants need to grow. Beyond saving your total energy costs, LED grow lights have additional cost-saving benefits like fewer maintenance costsand a longer lifespan. Plus, when you opt for dimmable Mars Hydro LED grow lights, you’ll have an easier time adjusting your energy costs.

DIMMING & DAISY CHAIN FEATURE GROW LIGHT: Upon an independent dimming button on the external driver,adjustable 0-100% settings adaptation and up to 30 LEDs Light daisy-chained in a group; Especially come with 2 waterproof Mean Well Drivers, Auto sensing power supply works on both 120VAC and 240VAC and 277VAC, suit for Large Rooms and Personal Setups. Mars Hydro once had many light series such as COB, PRO II, etc, after many innovations and upgrades, finally stabilized in today's four main grow lighting series: FC Series, FC-E Series, TS Series, and SP Series. The four series cover almost all the needs of growers, whether novice or veteran, whether using hydroponics or soil cultivation, no matter what stage of cultivation is in. So when you're looking at Mars Hydro, distinguishing between the lighting series is the first thing to do. Quantum board LED grow lights are designed to dissipate heat efficiently, and therefore don’t utilize cooling fans. With that said, tests of quantum board grow lights like Spider Farmer grow lights have shown that they still generate heat. The Mars TS series grow lights and especially the TS3000 Mars Hydro series are well suited for a commercial grower or those who are not afraid to spend a little extra money on an indoor growing lamp for the right reasons.
I turned the light on and I was almost blinded. The picture doesn’t do it justice because my camera dims the image when it’s too bright. The design of the grow light also plays an important role. A boxy purple LED grow light is an older desgin that isn’t as good at spreading light, and the purple light is not as good as the white light.Based on the light intensity readings provided by Mars Hydro, you should hang the light at the following heights during each plant growth stage, at 100% power: Notice the intensity at 2 meters in the image above is 25% of the intensity at 1 meter. The intensity at 4 meters is 25% of the intensity at 2 meters. This will hold true for your grow light intensity at a distance from 6 to 12 inches, 12 to 24 inches, 24 to 48 inches, etc. The grow light will be a Mars Hydro TS3000. I have not finished a grow with this light, up to this point only veg. Typically I finish under the FC6500 in a 4x4. A: This is frequently asked since we have had dimmers on Mars Hydro grow lights. Here is the dimming guide for your reference, please adjust it appropriately according to the situation of your plants. Most LEDs provide a PPE of 2.7 - 3.5 μmol/J, while an HPS light pulling the same wattage will only give you 1.8 μmol/J. That is to say, the demand wattage of LED is much lower than HPS with the same PPE, so it can save a lot of electricity cost. Also the cost of HVAC system is much lower than HPS because LED emits much less heat.So, you could enjoy far better light penetration with an LED grow light while pulling as much as 40 percent less energy.
The Mars Hydro FC Series is superior for growers who seek unbeatable lighting performance in their indoor grow systems. It was designed with the idea of building the best light line of Mars Hydro in mind and so every single wire and every component should be just in the right place. The broad spectrum formed by harnesses of Samsung LM301B diodes could provide full-spectrum light to plants of all stages and still maintain more than 90% accuracy and efficiency after 36,000 hours of use. It’s proved that Mars Hydro FC Series is able to hit 3.0 g/watt. The SF-2000 uses 200 watts from the outlet, despite the 2000 number in the name. Compared to other similar LED grow lights for 2×2 feet, this is a little bit lower. Other grow lights go up to 300 watts. The power efficiency is similar to other grow lights. The SF-7000 also has several different features from the lower powered Spider Farmer grow light models. Inventronics Driver: Energy Efficiency: LED grow lights are highly energy-efficient compared to traditional lighting systems such as incandescent or fluorescent lights. LEDs consume less electricity while producing the same amount of light, resulting in lower energy bills and reduced environmental impact.Plants loved full Spectrum: Different plant species have different light requirements during different stages of growth, and LED lights provide full spectrum to match those needs. This flexibility promotes healthier and more productive plants. If you prefer quality LED grow lights then the Mars Hydro TS 3000w LED grow light would be a wise choice in your growing arsenal (see also Spider Farmer SF-4000 review). Wattage and coverage area: Consider the size of your grow space and the number of plants you plan to cultivate. Ensure the LED grow light you choose has sufficient wattage and coverage area to adequately cover and provide light for your plants. The manufacturer should provide recommendations for the maximum coverage area based on the light’s specifications.
