I will give you my recently learned experience with their products...

First I own a 39" x 39" x 70" Mars Hydro tent and its is very well made. Real heavy duty zipper, good quality thick canvas material, really good reflective inside, plenty of spots for ventilation both at the bottom middle and upper portion of the tent, a side pocket for the outside to keep such things like meters and such and the part that sold me on the tent was the fact it is constructed with easy to build METAL tent poles. The only thing i wish they included was 3 cross bars for the top instead of 2 however im sure it would be easy to rig something else to use as a bar to hang equipment from.

I also have their TS600 light which I know is only truly 100 watt draw from the wall. And I also know that the TS1000 only draws a true 148-150 watts from the wall. Which even tho it isn't much and even tho people will say they aren't any good... Mars Hydro caught wind of a grower using their light on YouTube that yielded like an 8 ounce plant from this one light... the grow was done in a 2x2 with training methods and such to also increase yield.

So with that being said...

I decided to add a secondary light in my 39x39x70 to increase my yield overall and added a Viparspectra V600 Reflector Series which draws a true 260 watts.

I'm not sure what or if the kits include a canopy fan but if they don't get yourself a couple Vivosun 6 inch oscillating tent clip fans... you'll need em for the light especially... my TS600 alone in the tent keeps my temps at 82F with 55% RH if I run one vivosun fan oscillating next to the light on high speed... if i turn my vivosun fan to low speed then my temp raises to 84-86F with a RH of 45% on average. So I'd imagine the 1000 is a touch hotter but not much. Overall the TS lights are a great buy if youre on a budget but if you have the opportunity or funds and want to still use Mars Hydro lights then i say either purchase a tent kit setup with the newer SP series lights or wait a few months and buy the new FC3000 bar light that they are testing currently


I love @MarsHydrofactory products! Super underrated just because the keep retail cost low and sell a lot of their product on eBay. You dont need a $600 light setup to produce good results. It helps but you don't need it!

And as soon as i have results I will gladly post them... i only just started with a TS600 and I've only sprouts with the right as of now but I have been running a journal and plan on continuing too... i was just simply impressed with the light in itself. And there are tons of posts and reviews (not by mars hydro) showing the end results using their products and they have been astonishing for what the light pushes out.

And do you own one of their lights? Have you grown anything with their lights? If not then you have no place to even judge their product... how can you speak on a product you know nothing about or have personal experience with? Years ago people said you couldnt successfully grow with CFL lights and look how far that technology has come! Stick to your snake oil salesmen that overcharge you for shit you dont need to be successful in a small grow tent setup. The man obviously isn't looking to harvest and supply dispensaries so take it easy!

Here's a CBD Crack (auto) grown under a TS 600.. (my first grow in 20 years) ..Two days before I harvested 101 grams (dried).
She never got any taller than 11 inches. Second grow (another auto and different strain) ..under the same set up produced 88 dried grams.

Yeah I ran one of their lights 6 years ago. My harvest was fluffy trash.

They also claim it’s a 1000w Light. They have lied to the community about their shit products for a decade now, why stop now.

every led grow light maker make exaggerated claims about their product. the bestva looks like a good light but I can't find information on the diodes they use ur the efficiency of the light. I am considering getting the 1000 for a test grow in a 2ft by 2ft closet lined with Mylar I Like the fact that they add 420 and 470nm diodes but am concerned about the quality of their diodes. but I can't afford cree diodes
