This light is 3 years old, and running about 80% of it's out of the box intensity. It has served WELL for the past 3 years.
I'm replacing THIS light with
- Atreum Lighting
- Hydra-3200 LED, 320 W
- This light provides ~ 10% more available light than the Mars Hydro SP 3000
Purple Heart is read. I'm HAPPY THEY'RE HARVESTED!!
The stretch in flower, published at 2x, was OVER 4x on two of 5 plants, and 3 - 4x on the balance. Had I known, I would have STARTED 11/13 light cycle.
One plant grew to and past the Highest level I can place it - Two grew right to the light surface.
The two tallest have bud damage where they were directly laying against the light - but other than that - the flowers look Awesome!
If I grow her again - I'll start her in a flowering photoperiod.
