Just got my mars hydro delivered , now I have more questions... will it light my tent 4 foot wide x 3 foot deep x6 foot tall ,?? I use 5 gallon buckets , and can fit 6 in there comfortably, should I go all in and raise 6 ?? Should I draw the reins back and only do 4 ?? Will I also need to leave 1,2,or all 3 of my cheap 1000 watt leds in there with it ?? Sorry guys , I probably drive y’all nuts with questions daily..

Hi Kevin, thanks for ordering Mars light. :D
For your questions:
- the TSL 2000 can fit around 3x6 during veg, but 2x4 during flowering. So for your 4x3 space, it can fit, but a little short of light during flowering. And the height should not be a problem. We use lighting group design, on which every chip is only around 0.5~0.7w/pc, you can put the light lower above the plants without any problem. :Namaste:

Is this light shipped at a set level ?? Or is it wide open from the get go ??

The factory set is 100%, usually you don't want to change it, unless during the seedling, or you use the light for clone or monther plants, you feel the light is strong, you can adjust to lower wattage. :green_heart: Remember to use the 3mm screwdriver :hippy:

Well they won’t be 8 weeks above ground until the 28th I think ( would need to read my notes ) I am trying to wait it out , but I fear if I wait that long , when flowered they will be too big for my tent by the time they are done , so gonna flip them a week or so early and let em go .. thanks for the response fox125!!
 
Kevin you have some clawing going on , you didn’t water too much ? Do you have any thing to wrap those buckets with , roots will be able to see light especially with your new light !

I been trying to not water too often , I was told the clawing was from my fan being on too much and pointing at that plant .. I water about every 3 rd day , and give them less than a half gallon per .. and I will try to pick up some black plastic to wrap the buckets tonight ..

Hippie is the clawing due to fan a possibility?? If not then I will re evaluate my water schedule.. I have another pic of that plant , I just noticed has like condensation on 1 leaf , here is upload of that leaf

Ok thank you , if that’s all it is I am cool with it , but it’s odd because there are more leaves that touch in there and it’s the only spot I found ( been in there really scoping the scene since I saw that )

I just stuff the ones rubbing from the fan down under . You’ll figure out which needs to be defol the fan leaves !

I am still running the intake and exhaust fans , but shut that one down to try to prevent more leaf curl .. I defoliated last night , most all fan leaves ( originals ) were removed , only left top 2-4 .. may do a minor defol in a couple days before I put them on 12/12 ..
