Hey Mr Grow It, I have just got the TS 3000 last week, all set up now, let's get a grow going and see what it can do. I'm running 5 Blueberry from Dutch Passion in a 4x4 in 5 gallon pots. Happy Growing dude and always love your content. Was subscribed to you on another channel.
@NorthernCaliWay yes - it's WARM :)
@NorthernCaliWay I have one and have been using the TS3000 for over 2 months now ad i would say it only adds 1-2'c at most to the grow tent. so if your tent is 23'c lights of it will be 24-25'c lights on
I have a SF-4000 which is almost an identical light and I can confirm without a fan actively cooling it, it gets way too hot, so I suspended a turbo fan above the light pointing directly onto the drivers and it's only tepid to the touch now and the tent is much cooler because the heat can move freely!
Very bad light for yield. I would say its on par with a 250-300w HPS
Thank you so much Chris. Remarking this par test video really helped me figure out my light distance.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.!!!
I feel this was a personal favor to me. Thank you so much
Yes this is for you 🙂 .. you brought up a great point about factory settings. I plan to keep all lights at factory settings for PAR tests in the future. Cheers! 🌱
This is the only light from mars hydro that i'd consider fair for the price. From looking around this one seems to be a hidden gem. Again I can't thank you enough for this playlist bro.
Yeah flower with it. You won’t be thinking hidden gem for long 😂
@@Comeback.king. why ya say that Mr Thacker..
@@fightdhr5107 great veg light. Flower leaves you lacking weight and terps. Improper light spectrum. Way to much blue. Needs a lot more red.
@@Comeback.king. You spreading bad info thacker jack..Mars lights rock..Why you do that Thack..1
We bought and are using the updated model so far, so good.
How are the LEDs holding up. Mine not so well
@@davidboekhout18 good. We put it in a 3x3 veg tent and it is like new.
@@MikeParentLeap thats good news. Mine lost half its leds prior to even a year and customer service at Mars Hydro is a joke. Ill never buy again
@@davidboekhout18 I just sent a picture to marshydro and they sent my invoice and I’m getting a new light
20" for the win alex
Thats wut she said... 🐓
So hooked on you channel. Geeking out in the garden.👍
Great video, would love if your could repeat this test without the reflective floor for a more accurate reading as to what would actually be hitting our non reflective plant canopy. GL from the UK 👊🏾👊🏻🇬🇧
After watching this. I definitely have the wrong light set up and I definitely need to invest in a reader. Thanks!
My Tsl2000 is a beast!
I have the TSW 2000 which is a beast and I just got the TS 3000. can't wait to see the results. Check out my grow
Loving the new pod cast bro you guys are helping alot off us so thanks my mate keep the vids coming
Io l'ho comprata, non ancora montata ma non vedo l'ora di farlo...!!
Mr grow it. Half my LEDs are burnt out on my Mars hydro TS3000 after 2 grows. On the third about to flip and realized quite a few LEDs stopped working.
Did you have the light dimmed? Or at 100 percent power?
Love from the uk
test par with door closes go through vent :)
This is a good light.
Great video thank you I was wondering if anyone can answer my questions. I have some tomato plants and pepper plants that I want to keep growing inside so I bought a 5 x 5 Grow Tent and I just bought this light that you have here this grow light. Do I need to get a fan a humidifier or anything like that for this tent? Also, thank you in advance.
Awesome light going to be doing a grow series on my channel 💪
Can run this light at 100% as long as you keep the drivers off the top in front of a fan and of course move air around the light fixture itself
Thank lot s bro. ..
Why would they build a light NOT recommended for full brightness?
Does that make sense?
Was seriously thinking of buying one but not if it burns out quicker
Any device with electricity running through it will last longer, if you run it at full power. Sounds more like a helpful hint than a warning. For this light, you don’t need it at 100%, unless you’re supplementing co2 or if you just like to run with your lights higher above the canopy. Probably can’t beat it for the cost.
I just got a tsw 2000 i just flipped to flower in my 4 by 4 im running the light around 75 percent power at 24 inches above the canopy is this to much light for my plants? I haven't noticed them stressing or anything yet its been three days since i flipped them and switched lights to the tsw 2000 any advice would be great thanks 🙏
What mic were you using in the last video about growing small plants? great channel. How come you arent using your main channel anymore?
I was wondering that also ( about the main channel)
Can u do 2 lights in a 4x8 tent i wonder they would have a litte better coverage? 🤔
I want to see some tests on the t-tekhydro leds
Thanks
Shut the door on the tent and it will hold 500 around the edges. This is a good light for the $.
Watched the original par test, I recently bought this light. I probably won't run at 100% but I am going higher than 450 watts
That is 100 percent 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻
@@Comeback.king. lmao
Nice bro
I have this and the light is at the top of the tent - barely at 50% and my plants that are only half way to the light suffer from light stress - buds forming well though - dense - full organic grow - what gives? Is this just super strong?
Im about to get the new kind commercial soon 😎😎
Hey..noticed you installed the drivers, and controller on top of the blue protective plastic...did you have any melting issues..!??
Thnx for the test...how long was the light on before you did the heat readings..? ty
Man, I was just about to buy this.. Is that "not at 100%" part normal for all LEDs?
Just Picked one up!! Seems Lots of light for my 4x4
comparing this 3000w to 2 til 2000 in another 4x4
what did you notice in your comparison? I got the 3000 for 4x4 but feel like I should've got 2000
2 of the 2000s
@@danyankou6608 Finally using my
par meter it helps tons. the 3000 is intense. You’ll be fine. If your using just a single tent and light I’d recommend using a T5 grow light for Veg and Seedling and then the Mars for flower
@@indoormagicgrows9486 why do that when you can just dim it? They come with an external dimmer control now too.
What sifze of tent was thst tested in
GUYS! I am so stuck in between this MarsHydro TS 3000 or 2 MarsHydro TSW 2000 for my 4.5 x 4.5 tent!! 😱
What you cannabros say?!
Keep up the sexy videos 😜
Two lights is always better than one..even if the two are smaller. Guarantee that
@@craigbourque1696 true and extra 150w for extra like 150 dollars
Bean town in da house yes
Hi could you explain me that difference of power taking from the wall ? in other video was just over 630w here 449 ?
Watts is a measurement of energy consumption. Some grow light companies advertise for 600W but it actually pulls 300W. The 600W is actually the equivalent for an HID grow light. Hope that helps.
@@GardenTalkwithMrGrowItits your video you tested same produkt call Mars Hydro TS3000 LED GROW LIGHT UNBOXING AND PAR TEST ?? Or you mean you have 2 TsS 3000 one taking 450 another 630 ?
@@domingez79 It was the same light but the dimmer on the driver was adjusted to pull a different wattage.
@@GardenTalkwithMrGrowIt ok so in max over 630? i try compare Mars Hydro 3000 to Spider Farmer 4000W do you made a test in future ?
FIRE FIRE FIRE REVIEW
A 4 by 4 at 20 to 22 inches of a 3 by 3 at 24 to 24 to 28 inches is the winning ticket in my opinion with maybe a little Co2.
What % is the dimmer when drawing the 450watts? Is this at 75%?
450watts is 100% of its output
What do you think are the best light out in the market right now?
Optic LED'S
RuFing Crazy yea money is not an issue as I plan to take care of my equipment until it dies so might as well get top shelf. I wanted to have to grow and compare two different lights but don’t know which two. I was thinking Optic LEDs in one 4x4 and maybe the new HLG or the ROI 680 in the other 4x4
@@christophergomez8179 all great choices man. Good Luck.
@@christophergomez8179 if money isn't an issue then I would probably say the new Optic 8 Gen 4, you won't regret it, I'm currently using the Optic 4 XL in a 4x4 and it's a very impressive light. The new HLG is also nice but if I had to pick out of the 2 Optic 8 hands down, abit more pricey but..... Hell of a Light
RuFing Crazy 😂😂😂 I’m originally from Miami so I understand how you feel
What do you think the best option for a 4 x 4 tent is that is only used for veg
1 of these
I have both the ts 3000 and the california extreme 500 currently have the ts 3000 on a light rail and was thinking about putting the california extreme up the coverage space is a spare bathroom Including tub space - roughly 5*7 ft. I also have 2 sun system flower power 315 cmh light. Looking for the fastest most cost effective way to grow my medicine.
Which light out of my three would you run on the track during veg- flower.
Please get back to me
is that both driver and dimmer removable to be installed outside the tent?thnx
Yes
Is this light for flowering too?
It's for all stages of growing and dimmable
Check out Bill Ward, he pretty much only uses Mars hydro, the smaller ones even and his grows are amazing
@@coreyp9072 Bill Ward and Mr Canuck are the two guys I follow
I have a 12x12 scrog in a 14x 14 room. How many of these would I need to cover that 12x12. I do 12 plants under there?
Get 4
You need 8-9
Yeh 4
Can you do a par reading on the sp3000?
What do you think about the Lumatek LED Zeus Pro 600W? Or the Sylvania Gro-Lux LED LINEAR 396W with insane 3,06µmol/J!!! Spider Farmer or Easy Grow Lightning...which lightning you tested are the best yet?
Can i use this light in 3×3 tent
Yeah its actually perfect for that
I’ll keep my hog 650 r thank you, but this is much cheaper
Yeah keep your light mars hydros a rip off although the fc series is on point
That should rock a 3x3 really good, and not so much a 4x4. But at that rate, you might as well get a CMH
CMH have a absolute horrible footprint coverage.
@@timpage5021 a 315 works great in a 3x3. Been doing it a few years with Great results
@@patdanahy69 in a 3×3 sure. But not in a 4×4. Like I said CMH have a horrible coverage footprint.
There is only 9 sq feet in a 3×3 and nearly double in a 4×4 at 16 sq feet..
@@timpage5021 CMH still beats the heck outta that Mars
870 at 24 inches
I know, I thought it would be abit more than that. I'm sure on the Mars Hydro website they specify more!!!!! Liar's.... And I just got this light too 😂😂😂
Review a good light like the Lumatek Zeus 600w Pro, these mars lights are relatively good value for money in the short term but it is nothing short of an unfinished product, very cheaply put together to take advantage of a market where so many people dont really understand what there looking at and buying!!
You get any condensation/moisture into this light its days are numbered I'm afraid
😂
Were you the last one to get a Mars hydro t3000? I think I've seen like 5000 people review it in the last couple months
Why do all hang this light wrong while testing? You need cone shaped reflector sides to be directed to sides, not to the tent door which is open. vertical reflector sides need to be directed front and rear, that will increase PAR by a 5-8% while testing at least
My audience voted in a poll and 83% want to see PAR tests in grow tents like this. I don't know anyone who adds additional reflectors into their grow tent. Like I mentioned in the video, this test is just to give you a general idea of what the PAR output is. Can't satisfy everyone unfortunately.
It's a 4x4
Meat loaf pan
😆
It looks like junk.
I’m always looking for “real” reviews of lights . The problem comes when you get a “free” light . For some reason people in this Industry will lie and sell their soul to any company that will give them a “free” light. Red flags always flying when I hear “Mars hydro sent me this light here’s my discount code “ !!
I agree and that's the reason why I don't do "review" videos. I unbox and show the PAR numbers and let the measurements do the talking.
Wish you tubers would stop reviewing cheap amazon led. Review a gavita led
Andy this light is really good. I have the TSW 2000 and TS 3000.check out my channel and see my plants. My expensive setup has the Optic 4 XL in a 4x4 BudBox Pro
I use this light its a beast in a 4x4 with proper training and ventilation
@@aesho46 Cheap is all what some people can afford. Ours has performed flawlessly for 3 years of daily use.
It easily yielded 1.5 gms per watt even though the light was rarely run at full power. Most of veg was appx 60% power
JM2¢
did you do one of these already... the tsl 2000 i have and is truly amazing...
No, I did not do a PAR test on the TSL 2000 yet.
@@GardenTalkwithMrGrowIt i musta had toast when you said you already unboxed the light... no bro i was asking dint you do a review on this light a few months ago... then i said i had a tsl 2000 and it was amazing.... oh perfect cool video chris
haha I got confused because I did say it in the video so I assumed you were talking about the TSL2000. lol toast! Cheers Jason
