Just before i checkout, anyone got anything to add? Maybe a better light for same price /abit more or wether these lights are good or crap.

I already have 2 hps and want to add a 3rd light but with summer approaching cant add anymore hps lamps, so this is just a suppliment to those other 2 its not going to be my only light source

I dont want to spend too much though i already have 2 hps this is just to add extra light, only grow too smoke anyway i barely recoup any of my costs
 
From my jaffacakecookies 2 weeks ago, 7plants in 20l pots grown in coco (fed canna a/b, canna pk 13/14, dutch pro explode & c result) no ph whole way through, harvested 19z.
Smokes clean, couch locks you to fuck & stinks of high heaven

Also first attempt at making bubblehash so slate away

I was thinking of buying the ts3000 as well.... couldn’t afford two sd3000 so ts3000 sounded more affordable...
 
with 2 HPS lights be better of supplementing your spectrum with UV. perhaps 2 of these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GBRKXP...sc=1&coliid=I2WUY5TWO5Q9K3&colid=AW7UKM9ED6GM and maybe some of their 660nm bulbs for increase flowering.I have found that the UV bulb needs to be atleast 1ft ftom the plant to avuid harming the plants. many growers suppliment theig HPS lights with T5s or CMH to improve taste and potency. I tried mars in the past and will not buy them again. if you are into DIY you could build a simple light using these https://www.digikey.com/catalog/en/partgroup/eb-series-slim-gen-3/91271 4 strips and a meanwell driver cost $130 plus tax and shipping and will give you more light (186-200 LPW)

If the 4x4 tent was only ran with led, which lighting brand would you suggest?
 
On June 2, 2020 I tried to make a purchase from Mars Hydro. As of today August 3, 2020 they have still not sent the product they said was in stock at the time of my order. They also have not responded to any of my many emails or phone calls. They still have my money though. That being said I wouldn't give Mars Hydro a single dollar of business again.
