I picked a used model up last week. The guy did one grow and realized he wasn't interested. He gave me the receipt where he had bought it in August 2022, I paid $550 CDN or a bit over $400 USD, I absolutely love it. I anticipate it will vastly improve bud density over my current system.
The par map is pretty impressive. I'm surprised this light isn't more popular
Thank YOU! I've been searching for someone to say what is the % should I flower at on this light! Every video I click on tells me all of these numbers that I don't understand! I have brain trauma and due to my brain trauma I'm not the brightest person out there. All I needed is for someone to tell me what my settings should be on flowering! I said screw it and I have mine set at 80% with the height at 23". Hope that's ok. I'm growing in a 5x5 tent. I went on Ebay and won the auction for $504.00! Needless to say, I'm very happy!
Great light.
Week 6 of flower and I’m at 75% on the dimmer at 24 inches above canopy.
Question ,
Why at 75% ?
@@overthenever4262 because it’s a lil over 800 ppfd .
youre in a 4x4 or 5x5?
@@Bnguyen276 4x4
@@timpage5021 yeah at 75 this light is in a beast , how much true watts does it draw at 76%? 500 ish?
🤩🤩⭐🤩 what a light this should be called Mars monster light🤩⭐🤩🤩🤩🤩⭐🤩🤩⭐🤩🤩
What's the PAR in a 5x5 grow tent
Please
Great light. Week 6 of flower and I’m at 75% on the dimmer.
what should I use for seedlings distance and power wise? I would like the light high enough so I can actually get into the tent and work
I don’t use this for seedlings. I use a 24 watt T5 over a seedling tray. But once they are big enough I start at 20% and about 3 and half feet away. And flower 75% at around 20 inches
I have a vipra spectra 1000 dimmed down to 10% for my seedlings I hope its not tl much
Also how much do u ramp up the %s while in veg
I'm using the FC-8000 in a 5x5 and I started at 20% in veg and gradually ramped it up to 50% towards the end of veg. Currently in week 2 of flower and it's at 60% and 24" above canopy. About to turn it up to 80% in the next week or two. I'll see if I can finish my grow at 100% but that may be too much without using co2. I have a Gorilla with a 1 foot extension so I should be able to maintain 24" distance throughout.
Why did you not test it in a 5x5 tent then if you think that’s what it should be used in?
because if you put this in a 5x5 it will still blast your center and your par around the edges will be crap.
Commercial means 4x4 coverage meaning only the top sites in the 4x4 area will be intaking more co2 and photosynthesizing at a higher rate
After setting it to 50% so you dont' vaporize your plants you would have an excellent spread to every nook and cranny.
Looks great, I’m surprised 😯
I bought the SE7000 because of how sloppy those wires are. I like my setup to look clean. And, I can't believe the power supply won't lock on the light. That's not good
Had the wiring on one of these literally melt at the connection between the driver and the light.
Looks nice, very great design product.🙂
What's the temp at 12 in?
Are those the light hangers that come with it? Every other review I’ve seen shows some metal hangers.
Also, you said if you disconnect a light bar, the power from that bar goes to other bars? If you disconnect 4 bars, the remaining 4 bars will have 200 watts each?
Now how hot does this one get I see it's like on the walls once I start up a inline fan the walls will touch the light is it hot enough to start a fire at 100 percent with it touching the walls
Eric I bought 2 of these from you on Black Friday . With these ppfd readings at 100% on the dimmer , if I do 50% on my dimmer would it be half the ppf your chart shows ?
whats a good distance and power level for early veg like 3 week old plants ? autoflowers
I wish you could adjust the spectrum.
Are you going to review the MH fc 1000?
Should review the new phytomax 3 24sc. curious, why it's priced at 3k.
It’s because it covers 8.75’x8.75’ at 1200 watts.
@@Bnguyen276
Just because a brand say it covers a certain space. Doesn't necessarily mean it actually does, or should.
No reviews, no tests, almost nothing.
The phytomax2 line up was overpriced, and I'm just curious if blackdogs are still overpriced in today's lighting game.
@@horseleggs yeah, you asked why they want so much for it. I’m just saying what the brand says. These not my words so don’t beat the messenger boy 😂. Supposedly per crazy rabbis dog it’s supposed to cover that amount of space and capable of yielding 7lbs. I just ordered fc 8000, if it goes well, I’m going to do a full switch out. The highest yield I’ve ever got in a 4x4 is 2 1/2 lbs. if these mars hydro 5x5 can bring me over 3- 4 lbs I’m doing a full switch over. 16sq ft to 25 sq ft is a huge leap, and I should be harvesting close to 50 percent more math wise.
@@Bnguyen276
Yeah, I seem to come off that way..
I should try and do better first impressions.
I'm definitely not trying to be a dick.
Also, what light are you switching out for the fc8000 ?
@@horseleggs medic fold 8, I always hit around 2- 2 1/2 with them. I’ll be happy with 3 - 3.75 running the mars hydro with just 80 watts more. Right now I’m running sog 36 plants, and the 5x5 will let me run either 49 or hopefully 64.
More and more power
But the average guy don’t realize you have to have co2 for all this light
Even in a 5x5?
Шикарная лампа...кто бы подарил бедному гроверу))
Their customer service is crap, my dimmer went out 2 months ago and i cant get them to warranty it. Save your money medic grow is a better option.
👍
NO UV OR FAR RED!
I'm surprised they're still in business, thier previous LED's were really low quality...but affordable. I hope they're making worthwhile lights now so noobs on a budget don't get discouraged anymore.
They have been for like 2 years
@@MarksTournaments right on! That's great to hear! I've been out of the grow game about four years so I'm a little out of the loop.
Their lights now are unbeatable.
@@BaltimoresBerzerker same bro, just got back last aug-sept, wasted a few good packs from mistakes it hurts i had to dial in for 2 months to get everything straighten out. I heard Mars has step but stil hesitating
@@user-kz3kh8bt2k not so sure about that
The five year warranty is a joke. Should be illegal to even say that. Look in to it.
That’s seriously impressive for Mars crap dro
Mars-Hydro is ridiculous. I found these lights cheaper than list on the web, emailed Mars-Hydro for a price match and now they’re having their affiliate increase prices on me! Also, you can’t register a shipping different from a billing address on their website, they demand a bank transfer. Forget about a credit card. These people are not good to do business with, just saying.
Lol what? I use a pre-paid debit card.
@@timpage5021 I bought a couple of ZE1000’s from Parfactworks, this Mars-Hydro is put to shame. This ZE1000 light rocks with UVA and far red spectrum adjustments and PARS that are too high even for CO2! Screw Mars-Hydro!
@@Michael-s2p3p too high even for CO2? LoL ok, dude.
@@mstone-wd7kc What are you doing this “ok dude” for? You don’t think my lights can exceed PAR’s recommended for CO2?? You aren’t a dude, you’re a dud!
@@Michael-s2p3p That’s even funnier that you don’t see how ridiculous that sounds. If it’s too powerful for CO2, then what good is that power? Are you challenged mentally? ‘My lights are so powerful, even CO2 can’t help!’😂
These people send used goods, faded stickers, bent cases with traces of corrosion. Never buy anything from them. You have to return the goods at your own expense, they do not pay for postage, the cost of returning a postal parcel is $ 37. I was no longer the only one who ordered goods and received garbage from them, which can only be placed in a landfill.
Look at the reviews in the official MarsHydro Official Store aliexpress
They do not make contact, they refuse to pay for the delivery of their used goods.
I will return the bad product, you will be the next buyer of the product!
Эти люди присылают сильно бывшую в употреблении продукцию, половина красных диодов не работает, все этикетки выгорели от длительного использования, корпус погнут и имеет следы коррозии, всё пошарпано. На контакт не идут, доставка только за свой счёт, из Москвы это стоит 37 долларов. Никаких гарантий нет, обмен не делают. Просто игнорируют любые претензии и не отвечают на письма. Следующий мусор от этих мошенников получишь ты и так же останешься с поломанной техникой
Sounds like you used a bad shpping company where are you located? I used Amazon in USA and had no issues
