So… You got 3.31oz under a Mars Hydro and 2lbs under a similarly rated HLG and the light was the only variable that changed?
Because, no offense, but that seems a bit far fetched and if that’s not the case, your comparison isn’t accurate.
Thank you, I just want to say that I really appreciate all the responses I’m getting. Please don’t take it personally if I keep asking questions, I just want the best cumulative answer.
My last grow was with the mars 2000w, in a 2x2x4 tent. 2 plants of og kush , my dried and cured final weight was almost 12 ounces. Now I have more room to let them grow and maybe someday get a pound, that’s my goal.
If you’re happy with the results you’ve been getting from your Mars, you could add a second and go with a 2x4 tent.
The first photo is a small cola which was wider than a volleyball
The second ohoto is of my small little girl which was 7’6” tall by 8’ wide. Just a baby indoor grows. .
It’s not about the extra wattages, it’s efficiency too.
Hlg-300 would be a better fit than 320 kit. As far as whether it’s worth upgrading, only person that can decide that is you.
Auto or photo?
Mine was photo
I got the baby hlg (couldn’t afford more then the 100$ I spent) and I’m running 2 no name crappy less then subpar lighting with it. I know lighting is a big issue for yield, obviously the better and more, the bigger and better. Just curious is anyone knows a rough estimate of what I might pull with the 65 hlg v2 4000k. I’m hoping to get a minimum of an oz. But I’m curious if I might be able to get more, like 4? Or am I gonna need something more like 3000k or obviously a beautiful rspec (think I’m gonna get the 200$ rspec after I save some money)for budding to really pull a higher yield like a qp with a little light like that?
Nice. Good job. I’m running autos now. Got 4, but they’re not gonna get big. I’m gonna go to 1 next grow to let her get more light and have more room.
We use watts at the wall to easily describe/compare lights, but it’s not an accurate method. The hlg panel has higher efficacy than the mars light. In other words, the hlg will give more light intensity per watt consumed than the mars. So, using an hlg panel, one can light a given space with less power and less heat than if one were using a mars panel.
I just had my first grow. Used tsw2000 in a 3x3 and got 3/4lb So it cant be that bad and it was my first time ever growing. Mine pulled 360w from wall. But I opted to upgrade to hlg and can’t wait to see the difference.
Here is a few pics my last harvest under the mars TS2000 In less than ideal conditions (High temps). Not great, but not terrible either. It will bring you seed to smoke if you wanted. The HLG lights mentioned in this thread will provide you slight increase yield and quality. The HLG 650r is a beast, but wouldn’t fit your space. Since I upgraded my LEDs I now use my ts2000 and sp250 in veg tents.
To put it simply, I’ve heard a lot of growers going to HLG but I’ve never heard anyone replacing HLG with Mars or any of the Chinese brands.
For sure. Never heard anyone dumping their HLG for a mars light
Those are beautiful! The main point (I think) is they would be bigger,fatter, heavier, denser ect.on the HLG.
That’s a 10" dinner plate.
Are you talking about the inside lid of a ball Mason jar? Lol. Cuz that’s what it looks like. Not a 10" dinner plate…
