Congratulations Sue and all the others. And Thanks Sara and Mars Hydro for putting this together.

 

[SweetSue]

Oh wow guys! I’m kinda stunned, but absolutely stoked! Thank you. I’m once again humbled.

Gosh guys...... Brix gets the credit for growing that beauty with Doc’s kit. I was the one lucky enough to be standing there with my iPhone while she was looking so darned pretty.

I know someone who can really use this light to change the course of his health. And we all know how valuable growing cannabis can be to maintain a balanced psyche.

Thank you Mars-Hydro, not only for this prize and those that surround it, but for your unflagging support for our forums and our members. May this prosperous relationship continue in the exciting years ahead.

And thanks again guys. This is a wonderful day for someone who’s about to be surprised like it’s Christmas morning. Lol! You were all a part of his magic.

Happy Weekend and Happy Shopping. Wish I could live in the USA so that I can buy buy buy!

@Cola Monster - Thought you'd get a chuckle!

 

[Mr. Krip]

Congrats @SweetSue & other lucky winners!

I know the contest is over, but just for @SmokeSara, I thought I'd share some Day 50 of 12/12 pics under Reflector 144's along with another #MARSHYDROROCKS!

 

[Ganjagrandaddy]

By the time @SmokeSara puts up another fun contest my babies will hopefully be able to smile for the camera. And that time is coming in weeks not months. Ha ha, happy Growing! #growsbestwithamars

now thats fighting talk. heehee still got 10 wks before a finished bud here at least. kills me being between.lol
determined to be converted to LED by SmokeSara just a financial issue at present amd being an old advocate of cheap and cheerful gold standard Hps , one of " the devil you know " thinkers too.
i know i can pull decent bud with hps but the network I am a part of in uk still cant be convinced that the results can be similar with LED. same sticking points about amount of units needed for same coverage. good luck with crop. will see you on the battlefield !. lol

sarah, pls, not sure if this is appropriate here,, but,,

could you tell me if these two mars hydro lights are the same one,,

and could you tell me ,, are those two lights the same as the 'eco' models ?

thank you and excuse my manners pls,,

 

[TorturedSoul]

are those two lights the same as the 'eco' models ?

Looks like the previous version of the Mars 300 to me. The ECO models appear to be in a black aluminum case instead of a white one. See the product page on their website - which also shows the old style one that they're selling for $5 (with a $1,000 purchase) as part of their current sale, the second one down from the top.

yes,, as usual you come thru with some useful and productive input,, much appreciated

i concluded your conclusion myself but wanted to hear it from the boss,, for clarification. the adds have no useful product numbers or data at all, and different prices all over the place,, save 800 here,, 500 there,, ha

but, a 600w full spectrum,, tho ancient tech these days,, would fill my bill quite nicely for half or more dineros,, catches my attention

tho i sure am lookin at some other cool lights right now that just might be worth the investment,, and they look so freakin cool

mars has some as well,,

me like

 

[TorturedSoul]

Both of those panels (the older version and the ECO) look decent enough for ~270-watt panels. It looks like the gross light output is nearly the same between the two, although the newer one appears to have a slightly "fuller" spectrum - and the light is spread out just a little bit more evenly, whereas the older one has more of a "hot spot" under the center with less output (than the newer version) as you get out from underneath it. If there were a big price difference, I wouldn't have a problem buying the older model. With them being so close in price, though, I'd grab the ECO model. Unless it's a multi-light setup and you want more of the panel's output concentrated under it, of course. Sometimes "the best" option isn't actually the best one for a particular specific situation.

JUST MY OPINION, based on reading specifications, reviews, and miscellaneous journals. I do not own either model - or, indeed, any Mars-Hydro product (although I wouldn't mind trying one ).

 

[nivek]

ok,, dug this up,, not sure if this is what you saw ,, mr soul,, but,, this is a comparison of the one on ebay and the eco one on the mars site

the mars eco,,

Mars ECO 600W Led Grow Light for Beginner-Mars Hydro for sale,buy Mars ECO 600W Led Grow Light for Beginner-Mars Hydro - Mars Hydro

and the ebay old style

the ebay one much more powerful,, or am i seeing things wrong,, no good at this math

edit: oh geez,, i thot this would show the light pattern charts for both,, they are there, but need some diggin,, not important

the old style 50 % more powerful and twice the size of coverage,, hmmmm, kinda likin this one for the price,, old style is cool,, i am old, i am cool,,

i would never consider the eco version,,

Haha, right, mostly made in China, but still, some are not and the sales is really cool. Not like China, Sales usually small, and you need to do a lot to get the coupons, like playing online games in their shop, lol
