Damn, the FC3000 shipment is still waiting for clearance at Canadian Customs. It's sooooo slow. I can't wait to see you use it

The speed of customs clearance is very slow recently. I don't know why
Probably the time of year. Christmas and a global pandemic really outs a heavy strain on delivery logistics. Canada (ontario) is locking down tighter and tighter every week.

Right, we've been getting a lot of news lately about American logistics, a lot of logistics delays

Just got my new MarsHydro 5x5 tent up today and started my next grow. It’s a grow of upgrades with the tent being one of the big upgrades. Took down the old one and after 2.5 years the metal frame was rusting/falling apart on me. I didn’t know that until I was taking it down today, I just wanted a bigger better tent. So for now my seedlings and a gifted plant sit under my MarsHydro SP250 light. The other upgrade was just shipped out today from another light sponsor here on the forum and will be here just before Xmas

That's what we should do, but it's true that our English is, well, not really authentic

As a new grower I recently bought ts 3000 with a dimmer. Mars has put a dimmer on it, but tells us to adjust the heights in different stages of grow and have lights at 100%. Why wouldn't we save a little money say in Veg running light dimmed, but putting lights closer? I have no concept of ppm's or anything unless I buy meters to read. Why is there no recommendations for using dimmer from the manufacture? Lights would also last longer not running at 100%
That was going to be my approach.

On our website, we always advise customers to dim the light instead of the height, so as to save more electricity costs. You‘re right, otherwise there is no sense in designing a dimmer

Thank you... My manual only recommends different heights at 100%. I wasn't aware of another suggestions at web site.. Thanks again...
