FABULOUS REVIEW! This company was so wise to send it to you! What a well-made, properly engineered quality set! It is such a pleasure to see a company that obviously takes pride in in its product... from the careful packaging... to the easy set-up...and perfect parts fit. From start to finish, it looked like a breeze to set-up. SO RARE these days! The weed industry catapulted grow lights into the stratosphere The amount and variety of growing light systems these days is mind boggling. So many choices! it is confusing where to begin for starting our garden seedlings. *I will definitely look into this company's product line.* You'll have a lot of fun with this next winter! Thank you for this wonderful, thorough review. HAHAHAH I love the end shot!

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I was really surprised by the quality and how easy it all went together. I have to look into what I will need for ventilation and controlling the light next. The reflective interior distributes the light very evenly and doesn't waste any light. This is definitely a commercial setup and should give great results. I was actually planning on buying a setup like this next winter so this was a pleasant surprise. This one cost a little more then some of the competitors but from what I have seen the quality and lack of issues makes it worth every penny. In the off season I can use it as my safe space. Thanks for watching.

[@shannonstephens4245]

One of these days they will let use grow what we want! Were not hurting anyone!! Nice light and Tent! That thing is AWESOME my friend!! Take care and Be Safe!

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

They are trying to figure how to tax it to pay for all the free stuff given to non citizens and criminals in NY. This is a fantastic setup for starting seeds, can't wait to try it. Thanks for watching.

That thing is pretty cool looking, can't wait to see how it works.

It's really nice. I can't wait to try it. Thanks for watching.

[@spyk1486]

That looks like a great product. I'll be waiting to see what you grow in it first! I finally got my LED lights. Didn't get them up yet but I will soon! Thanks for the review on this equipment.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

It's definitely very nice. I always start with lettuce. LEDs have really advanced lately. Thanks for watching.

[@MarsHydro_official]

Awesome unboxing video, very exciting for the results

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Thanks. Both of these are extremely high quality and well made. Can't wait to try them. All your tents show as sold out on Amazon will they be restocked soon? Thanks for the opportunity to try this type of lighting. Thanks for watching.

[@D10D10]

I have a small walk in closet that I had to build this tent in for my tomatoes and because I didn't have room I had to put the bottom poles in then build from the bottom up from inside the tent. Everything was super easy to do because I did that except that last pole was tough to attach but I got her

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

That must have been a tough job. Be sure there is enough ventilation to avoid mold from condensation in the closet. Thanks for watching.

[@brentdeaner]

Word of advice....many friends of mine started using LED for plant starts. One thing they all said was you can’t put them as close to your plants as with regular bulbs. Can’t wait to see it up and working. ( Joe Gardener has a video up about LED light usage.)

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I started using the smaller ones 2 years ago and did have some issues but they were not adjustable. The adjustment feature on this will be great for seedlings and should take care of all the different growth stages. Thanks for watching.

[@brucemcdougall7282]

After watching your video's , I would trust your review opinions are fair . Thanks for the show and tell. p.s. too funny are the stickers .lol

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

We know what most of them are purchased to grow. Not one problem assembling it and the quality is excellent. Don't know how the LED panel will last but it has a 3 year warranty. Have to figure out what I need to buy now to set it up properly and start using it. Thanks for watching.

[@MJC69800]

Never see exactly how big it’s this tent, honestly being on your living room make the difference and it’s not large as I was thinking, which is perfect for my 2 bedroom ;)

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

It's 3 x 3 and was plenty big enough to have fresh lettuce all winter. There are several videos about it. Also recently bought a 2 x4. Mars Tent and it's the same quality. Thanks for watching.

[@botabob]

It would be interesting to do a comparison to your current seedling growing against the super duper high tech grow light. Very nice review.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I tried to do that with the LED's and fluorescent fixtures I currently use but there really wasn't much difference. This is a whole different category and all I can really compare it to is past results. Thanks for watching.

[@purpguy69]

You’ll want to change your zip straps around so your pulling down to adjust the light. Not up, helpful tip

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I figured that the light starts at the bottom and I pull up to make it go up. Its an easy swap though. I will try that when I get everything to set it up. Thanks for watching.

[@mishalea]

I've been wondering about grow tents. Just not a fan of running extra electricity, even tho it may not take much. Tfs!

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

We run grow lights anyway and the tent will help to get full use of all the lumens. It's all new to me also. Thanks for watching.

[@dangoras9152]

Brother u could put a dehumidifier on one of those vents and put a chair in it and close it up when u get sick and feel better lol

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

The chair fits perfectly. I was thinking a small fridge with hard cider. I can also use it for my safe space in the off season. Thanks for watching.

[@clairemars9723]

[@iOnlySpeakTruth420]

Happy to see you getting into the hydroponics! I have a Vivosun 8x8 tent with 2 Spider Farmer LED lights. I've just switched over to bloom for my cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers & jalepenos. Hydroponics is very fickle and needs alot of attention until you can maintain a good 6.0-6.5 pH level. The LEDs don't produce much heat at all & can easily be blown away with a small fan. My electricity bill isn't much higher with them either which is a huge plus.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Not going to use it with hydroponics. I tried that last year with the small growbox and it's not for me. This will be used for my seed starting in the cups. I definitely have some things to learn about using this. Thanks for watching.

[@rickvb2709]

When your not using it to grow you could use it for your grass collection system outside.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I bet it's as strong as the cyclone rake bag. Thanks for watching.

[@MrWhaatay]

How big are are the round exhaust holes at the top of the tent?

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

i think a 4 inch pipe will go through them. Thanks for watching.

[@Masterkaos]

G'day mate how you doing man?? Great upload man very much enjoyed. Anyway I just wanted to ask you can I use this light in my 4x4 & still get decent results? I currently use hps lights & decided to try leds but I think I got the wrong led. It said on the ad TS1000WATT FULL SPECTRUM GROW LIGHT but when I received it I was reading the specs n stuff & it said only 150watt from the wall when I thought it was 1000w, I was reading the model thinking it's a 1000w so now I have had it for afew months but never used it. Should I swap out my 400w hps & try the led??? It looks very bright & capable I think but I'm not sure any help would be great. CHEERS 🍻🍻

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

LED go by the output equivalents and the light I have uses less than 150w input. I showed the energy consumption in a lettuce growing video. The 1000 is rated for a 3 x 3 ft grow tent growing the type of plants they list. I doubt it would have enough power for a larger setup. Contact Mars Hydro and see what they say for the items you are growing. Thanks for watching.

[@jokimaguire5045]

I think your looking for the 4800fc bar light for a 4x4x6 but depends on what your growing

[@jokimaguire5045]

I thought the ts1000 was for. A 2x2 5 tent, would the fc or fce3000 not be the best light for this size of tent

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

This is what they recommended. It is excellent for things like winter lettuce and greens that don't need a lot of light. Also good for tomato and pepper starting but think for anything flowering a bigger light may be needed. Thanks for watching.

[@seafuashs6643]

how many autoflowering plants do you recommend growing (5gal pots) in a 3x3 under the mars hydro ts1000 you are reviewing?

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

None. We can't grow that here in NY so I have no idea. I fill the whole 3x3 with veggie plants with no problem. Thanks for watching.

That LED actually runs pretty cool.

[@iOnlySpeakTruth420]

Naw, I run several LEDs similar to his from Spider Farmer in the same large tent. My tent stays around 74 degrees steadily. They don't use much power either. I remember the days of the metal hallide bulbs that required a ballast. Now those things produced serious heat!

is it just me or is Mars Hydro just cooler than the other light companies?

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

The whole interior of my 2 x 4 mars tent layers separated and turned black between the separated layers after 2 years. Their tents don't last like other brands I am finding out. Plus the LED light started flickering after 18 months. Their stuff doesn't seem to have a long life I am finding. Maybe the newer stuff is better Thanks for watching.

It also lacks a way to pad lock the zippers so the kids cannot access the plants of the parents... :) Thanks

In New York you can legally grow 6 cannabis plants if you have a medical card. Which is very easily obtainable.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

My wife started that process after our doctor recommended it. The Referred doctor wanted $500.00 upfront before he would even talk to her. This fall it should be legal for everyone once the dispensaries start to open. Thanks for watching.

[@Laurelfarms]

The Amazon description indicates 2x2 and your description is 3x3. Which is correct?

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

I have the 3 x 3 that is properly sized for this light but they sell many different sizes. I did place a 3 x 3 link but they all seem to be sold out now. I will look into that. Thanks for watching.

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

Amazon has screwed up all the grow tent links so no matter which size you choose it goes to the 2 x 2. I will try to get a different link.

It works for 3x3 providing more than enough PAR for veg, 2x2 is high par for flower. I personally use this light in 2.5x2.5 and its perfect

[@TheZigZiggy]

You can't get 1000 watts by using only 150 watts. I'm guessing you must have meant lumens.

It's the same par/lumen output as a 1000 watt HPS grow light. It's 22,216 lumens rated but I have no way to test that. Thanks for watching.

400w metal halide much better and cheaper. LED lights are just smoke and mirrors. Actual Power 150Watt! Garbage!

This worked good for growing greens all winter. Metal halide would triple the electric cost so cheaper is only for the initial purchase. I picked up another of these and really like them. Thanks for watching.

[@hannible1002]

@@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 Well no not really dude. I grow 5 plants in a 4ftx4ft tent using a 400w MH plenty light enough. But if that LED is actually sucking 150w out of the wall just buy a 150w MH. Then it would be exactly the same cost to run but a lot cheaper to buy. Does that make any sense I dunno lol. But take care anyway dude I spose we will have to agree to disagree

[@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023]

This one does a good job and only uses a little over $7 a month for electric so there is no need to switch. I posted videos about the fantastic job it did growing lettuce. Use what works for you.
