Mars Hydro 1000W
Foxtrotoscarstarted grow question 5y ago
Is the mars hydro 1000w enough for the three plants that I have growing as I have replaced the 2 other leds. Should I keep one in along side the mars or run it solo?

The 1000 is a 150 watt QB.
It depends on how big they get as its an area dependency.
As long as things are contained within less than 3x3 ... Yes
I run a TS1000 and a 600w HID, but I wont turn on the HID until things get big enough to be outside the Mars light pattern.
You might want to hedge your bets and keep one of the old leds hanging.
The old 30 watts of LED per square foot is not a bad guide but really does not reflect the new QB lights they are just better..

Efficient lightingKeeping both 200w VEG and 300w FLOWER lights 24h is too expensive for my alien wallet. So I left the veg light under 12h/12h and flower on.
Please share with me some of your past experiences and how can I save money and grow killer yields.

Leaves drooping after switching from MH to HPS light for flowering. Is this expected?Flowering started on auto, switched light from MH to HPS 4 days ago. Same power, same ballast, different bulb vendor:
- 150W MH from Superplant at 5000 K
- 150W HPS MASTER SON-T APIA Plus from Philips at 1950 K
Flowering continues but leaves started to droop, plant looks sad

Lamp to plant distance: is 40cm enough during flowering phase?Started with 70cm (afraid to "burn" the leaves), but moved it down to 40cm after checking other grow diaries for auto seeds.
Should we keep the lamp ~25-40cm away from the plant from now on?
*Lamp is a 300W LED panel (full spectrum)Week 7

Grow LightsIs it okay to use an LED Light 1000 watt (4x4x80" tent) & a UV Light 1000 Watt in a 4x4x80" grow tent for 3 plants. I want more light, I have plants growing slowly so I'm hoping to adjust the amount of light I have would speed up their growth. LED is white spectrum & UV blue-vegLeaves. Tips - Burnt

How can I prevent these light burn issues?It seems these Mars hydro lights are not so great. This is my third grow and having the same issue every time. Red stems where they are exposed to light. Yellowing leaves. But when I move the lights further away, stretching is very bad. Should I just get new light?Setup. Lighting
