(Edited)

HIT THE GOAL, I was able to hit my goal and cash out enough for a mars hydro ts 600,

If you have been following my blog you will know that I have set out a goal to start using some the liquid steem I earn as well as other crypto I earn from places to help pay for new grow equipment to show the cannabis space that you can earn and help pay for equipment and or other things need to help fund your grow with just a little bit of extra work making some awesome grow logs and journals here on weedcash & steem.

Mars Hydro TS600

Now to start this off this was not a sponsored video or post from mars hydro at all this was bought by me to show how awesome steem is and do a review on the mars hydro ts 600 because I was not able to really find any unboxing video or really that many reviews at all on the TS 600 from mars hydro.

From the start when I took this light out of the box I was quite shocked to feel how light this LED really is. I had thought that with the no fan it would need to weigh a few extra LBS for a good heat sink but this weight in at like 5 -10 lbs.

From that photo about it is showing off the LEDs, It has a total of 49 LEDs with a couple being IR so you can see them but the plants really enjoy them.

The Driver is built into the unit and the outside reflective casing is the heat sink to keep the driver and the LEDs nice a cool without the need to add the extra watts or noise from a cooling fan.

The package that I order or maybe it is all of them came with ratchet hangers and let me tell you if you plan to use these light for your whole grow these hanger will come in handy so you do not have to move your plants up and down or play around with Bungie cords.

You can see from the photos above that it is nicely designed to hang with short hooks and not the long ones that I have gotten with the other LEDs I have ordered that I end up using just one hanger per side for anyway. This is a plus in the design in my eyes.

With the way that I have set this up and the design from mars hydro that leaves these hangers short it is not hanging 8 inches off the top bar like some the other lights designs I have gotten. This one is only about 4 and that is more than enough room even if the light is at max height to keep the top the tent from getting too hot.

The front of the heat sink has a nice MARS HYDRO logo that is not too flashing but still shows off the company logo.

I have heard great things about this light. Possibly the best LED in its price range. Only bad feedback i got was the customer service sucked. But who knows, maybe that employee was having a bad day, or just is a shitty person, lol

Yeah, I have heard mix about customer service but I mean at 100 bucks and 3 month warranty I don't expect much but they will send they parts out for 3 years I think so that's awesome.

Yeah, I kept finding reviews how awesome the ts 1000 was. I want to over do light so I think 2 of the ts 600 in the 2x2 will be like running a HPS 200 to 250 so that's will be killer with way less heat.

I need to learn more about lights, as I'll eventually want to upgrade mine. Light is important, considering it's 1 of the 4 ingredients! (light soil water air)
Grow devil sounds cool. Is it for small grows like ours?

Yeah, Lights are maybe more important then soil even haha.

I don't wanna run HPS makes way to much heat so I like LEDs and these ones have been the cats ass I guess lately.

The wind devil is the smallest but most powerful fan I have come across. My local hydroponics store has one for 30$ and it pushes more are than needed in my 2x4

True, and lights are even MORE important to growers who self-impose limitations on the other essentials. For example, my water is just water, so I have to be sure my soil has all the calcium, magnesium, nitrogen, and so on. Worm castings, luckily, takes care of that! I just grow slower, and produce less buds, but I guarantee you they are top freakin shelf :) Stay tuned fam.
But yeah as time and budget allow I will also be upgrading my light situation, and LED is something I'm looking at, cuz of my small garden size.
And yeah, airflow is another part of the equation so a better fan at some point will help too. Thanks for the info.

That looks like a good full spectrum light. It's cool that there's a couple of IR emitters in the mix. Plants need that spectrum as well as the visible spectrum.
I wonder how many lumens the fixture puts out, it doesn't say in the specs...
