Ok cofinest we know you grow well ive lurked your grows for a while... can you include your minimum and maximum temps? Alot of questions about this light havent been answered... hows the pentration at the corners? Can this light be used for more than scrog grows? Some grow in small spaces others grow in rooms... is it viable for larger plants say dwc in buckets? Sorry to seem like a dick just wondering about these things... ps do you run a humidifier with these light?
This journal and your videos are the only Pro Series reviews I'm able to find. I'm waiting in anticipation for your next update.
I like the Pro Cree series,the 256,but what is its par and footprint at lets say 24 inches from floor?
Is it brighter than the Mars 2 1600?
Is there any videos showing its par,footprint or temp readings of any of the Pro Cree series?Not epistar.
!i just got my mars epistar 160LED! youve been a hero to me and am very glad i can test a light along with you CO
I've read Pro Series is still being tested so when will it be at US warehouses?
Thanks cofinest. Im just curious hows this thing compare to the mars 2 leds with heat... anything bigger than the 900 and it makes alot of heat.... better or worse jn your opinion. Fyi i run the 1200 in a 1m x1m
How do you compare Pro Series to Sun Series?
Same type of cobs or different.
You think its going be able to flower the whole 5 by 5?
Another quick question, I was using 2-144*3 and I got a 144*5.144*5 much better.Some say same LEDs as in Mars 2???
I'll either get one more 144*5 or the Mars 2 1200 for a 4 by 4.
Do you think 2-144*5 will do better than Mars 2 1200 in a 4 by 4?Finally all Mars 2 have both switches like 1600.
Sorry about all the questions.
Nice grow you have going here CO. Since you have more experience with these lights and Mars, I have a 4x3.5 grow area and was going to buy lights today until I came across your thread. I was going to purchase (2) 1600 Mars hydro panels which I know will cover more than the area I have but then I seen you mentioned 144*5 in a post and I thought to myself, I would have even more coverage if I was to purchase (3) 144*5 which would be cheaper than buying the (2) 1600, or even buying (2) 192*5 reflector than the 1600.
IMO the reflectors are alot better for things like scrogs and sog, pretty much where you manicure the canopy to be even and thinner then normal as the coverage is better but the diodes are spaced further apart so a bit less penetration. were tha mars2 lights have great intensity in flower but a shorter footprint you can get away with less training and defoliation (i would still recommend both with LED though)
That's my dilemma, I plan on starting to grow strictly autos where there isn't much training (scrog or sog) and deciding on lighting now. But I would figure that (3) 144*5 in a 4x3 space would be just as good as (2) 1600 mars II? Or am I just trying to convince myself on saving money? lmao
