Mars-Hydro LED Grow Light Discussion

Try back bacon. I cure and smoke about 20lb each year. It has far less fat than that made from pork bellies.



There are small towns in our province that are over run with deer. The carnivorous predators have been virtually wiped out, so the deer need to be hunted culled or they will starve.

That I can totally understand. Keeping the numbers in check I think is totally understandable. Its a shame the predators was killed off. If they would have never been hunted the number of deer would have stayed in check so hunting has cause an unforeseen problem. So the problem was caused by Hunting. Another reason I am not into hunting anymore

Hunters do more to conserve wildlife than the tree huggers. Their harvests and reports help set the limits for the next season, ensuring that there are controlled populations for future generations. It's the uncontrolled explosion of the human population that is causing the extinction of species. We take more room to grow the food we need, transport food and material to markets, mine, and manufacture the goods to support our desired lifestyles.

Previously the scattered human population was controlled by disease and predators, including the two legged variety. Distance between communities, and slow travel between them kept us from extinction due to disease. Advances in healthcare allowed more humans to survive disease and breed, removing much of this check on our population. As we civilized the planet, the number of predators, including the two legged variety has dropped, so this check on our population has also been largely removed. Unless the human race keeps its population in check, wildlife on the planet is doomed.

Then another Ice Age happens and resets the planet for another million years....

Or maybe the harm we do before we vanish as a species (if that ever comes to pass) hits the "runaway greenhouse" point - and our solar system ends up with another Venus - a planet that once had a planet not too dissimilar to ours. Now... Well, bacteria have been found even in the hottest locations here, sure. But it is highly unlikely they exist on a planet where lead melts into a puddle.
 
Getting teal

Hello everybody!
i've been reading here for a while and one week ago I decided to pull the trigger on a Mars Hydro Ts1000, mainly because I 've read all those good things about them here.

I am growing two Royal Gorilla autoflowers in 12 litre pots in a 60x60x160 tent. Current hanging height is 50 centimeters from the top of the plants. Do you think this is good? i had a blurple light before, so I'm always afraid to burn my plants now .

thank you in advance!

Hey Lb is that short for pound. 50cm is a good height to start with. And your plants don't look stressed. Your ts1000 is going to impress you I think.

it's not for pound. I'm from Europe, I forgot about the different metrical system! I think it translates to a 2x2 tent and 20 inches hanging height.

Thank you very much for your quick reply! I think one TS1000 should be efficient enough for two autoflowers, right? I sure hope the light will impress me. I had a viparspectra v300 before.

The plant on the left is now 21 days from seed and the other one 15 days. This is now my second grow ever.

It's enough for the area you are illuminating with it, since you're growing autoflowering plants (and can run your light 18 hours per day even during the flowering phase). The number of plants you choose to grow in the space is entirely up to you, although two is probably a good number for that space.

Good luck with your grow!

I’d have to say these lights do the job! colour, dense buds, tight and lots of it!
I’ll be putting a couple more of these lights (ts3000s) in this room now that I’ve seen them perform through flower. Especially since I hear there is a 420 sale? But can I wait... hmmm.
Final weight is looking great but we won’t k ow for sure until I’d all dried and trimmed. I’ll post the final weight next week!

I do agree with you Oldsalt. I am not agents hunting to keep populations in check. I do understand what you are saying about humans expanding our population and taking more and more habitat away from the wild life. the population of animals is shrinking every day and our numbers are going up rapidly everyday. I just don't fell the need to go kill something and the animal population is going down everyday. I don't want to be one of the reasons for the dwindling numbers of animals. The Human race is the worst virus this planted ever created

Thank you for your answer! The plants seem to be loving the light so far, and so do I. I cant wait to see how this grow will turn out. Even in my small tent the temperature only raises by 4 degrees Celsius with the TS1000.

Yeah, it's only a 150-watt device (when not manually adjusted to its maximum possible power setting), so I wouldn't expect the "light-producing part" of it to produce more than 511.8213 BTU/hour of heat. If it does end up becoming more than your extraction fan can keep up with this Summer, it looks like there's enough extra length on the cord to move the power supply out of the tent.

This seems to be a decent product, especially for the price. As long as the user does not have unreasonable expectations (e.g., it won't be sufficient for illuminating 100 square feet, lol).
 
Hello guys, sorry, I was moving over the weekend, a lot of work needs to be done, the network business of the new home has not been handled, so I failed to log in 420 to check your message. I'll get back to you one by one later :Namaste:
