Product Information

The Mars Hydro spectrum leads to very nice quality buds. Of course light isn’t the only factor for yields, but if you hang the light right, and use it in the proper sized grow space, you should be seeing good results in no time! Whilst there are most expensive options on the market, with more features, the value and efficiency provided by the TS 1000W is hard to beat. I think the majority of home growers would be really pleased with this model. The first thing I noticed was the fantastic color of the light, which is a warm white/yellow that is really very close to daylight in color. The light covers the entire photosynthetic spectrum, with a more balanced spectrum than some other grow lights on the market. You may notice in the first picture of my set up the plants aren’t looking…great. It’s because I’ve been using the light to rehab some of my sadder-looking specimens. It’s working really well, and I think I’ve saved my Verrucosum from the compost heap. It promotes/preserves variegation

I’ve been using the Mars Hydro TS 1000 LED grow light recently to grow vegetables indoors, and this article is all about my experience using it. I’ll cover the pros and cons of this light, how my plants grew and whether this is an LED grow light you should consider too. This way I wouldn’t have to buy an additional time switch to control when the light is on and off. Conclusion About The Mars Hydro TS 1000 Full Spectrum LED Grow Light How does this spectrum compare to the HLG 550 and the Spider Farmer SF 4000? The Mars Hydro utilizes a combination of 3000K-3200K & 6000K-6500K. Some growers prefer the 6000k range for vegging and 3000K range for flowering. With that said, spectrum isn’t a completely settled science, and so that’s why you see so many variations between different grow lights. The TS 1000 Full Spectrum Grow Light From Mars Hydro perfectly fits my grow tent Positives about the Mars Hydro TS 1000 Full Spectrum Grow Light in Detail Easy To SetupAll three of these grow lights are beyond that intensity level so you don’t have anything to worry about. Mars Hydro TS 3000’s Spectrum: Whilst I am less particular about the light spectrum of my grow lights, it is certainly an important aspect that the more technically minded growers will be interest in. Here is a picture of the spectrum test report from the manual which outlines things in some detail. Hanging The Light The Mars Hydro grow lights are VERY BRIGHT. Way brighter than a regular LED light. A normal light has a brightest of around 150ish lumens (it varies a tonne, but the brightest I found was 450).

I have about 15 under mine, but could probably fit easily twice that (it’s up against a wall, but if I hung it somewhere more centrally I could double the space). Pretty impressive. can hold hand 4-6 inches away from light for long time before burning sensation, very hard to burn plants with lights. I exceeded recommended distance in flower by multiple inches with no ill effect.Mars Hydro is well known for their best in class grow lights and is a staple in a lot of growers’ toolboxes. One of the biggest improvements on quantum board designs is the more evenly spread light intensity. For example, a low end traditional LED grow light may emit 1000 micromoles of light directly underneath the center, but as you measure 1 foot from center, the intensity will drop significantly.

update, just bought a second one of these. Just the light for 129.99, not the kit, since I don’t need the accessories this time. Will update to say if second light is as good etc.* Wattage and coverage area: Consider the size of your grow space and the number of plants you plan to cultivate. Ensure the LED grow light you choose has sufficient wattage and coverage area to adequately cover and provide light for your plants. The manufacturer should provide recommendations for the maximum coverage area based on the light’s specifications.

If you look to the right, you can see I have a shelving unit with mesh shelves – I have another light suspended from that, which is a great option because you can get a tonne of plants on the shelves. There’s still a bit of a red hue to the petioles, but there’s so much growth! Two new leaves growing (plus more on the pups) and I’m not losing old ones as often. Efficient cooling systems see that it always remains cool and never overheats. Both King LED and Mars Hydro systems provide full-spectrum lighting with IR (the former also with additional UV) to provide natural light required by plants during different stages of growth. Both these fixtures are more efficient than traditional lighting as they consume less power and save electricity and money. The Mars Hydro TS 1000W has a core coverage area of 3 feet by 3 feet. This reduces to 2.5 feet by 2.5 feet (76cm x 76cm) when used at lower hanging heights, or when growing plants in the blooming stage. My grow tent has floor dimensions of 70cm by 70cm, so it’s really an ideal size to get the most out of this light. Mars Hydro realized the indoor growing community was moving towards quantum board LED grow lights, so they designed an entry level light that can compete with quantum boards on every aspect:
