Mars Hydro - TSW 2000 & Mars Hydro tent ~ Blueberry F4 Adventure

[Lester Beans]

Thanks to #MarsHydro for letting me test out this light and tent!

About the light..I have had it for about a year and love it!

It is very bright. I have only been able to get it up to 75 percent in this tent. A friend has 8 in a bedroom and you def need sunglasses. I love the dimmable feature!

The light runs cool, draws around 300 watts from the wall.

As a stauch HPS guy it says a lot that I have sold all my HPS gear, some 20 lights. All gone never again. The peace of mind in having the LED running hand touch cool and using so little power is beyond words.

How about quality and yield. It definitely out yields HID lighting hands down. Denser, frostier, bigger buds. What not to like about that??

As for quality, I am impressed and very happy with the top quality and that is what this show is all about. I am pheno-hunting some of DJ Short Blueberry F4 and doing my best to grow the best examples of blueberry I can. This grow is not about yield, just quality and phenotypical expression.

Light: Mars Hydro TSW2000
Tent : Mars Hydro 42x42
Soil. : recycled mix of Peat, compost, perlite, rice hulls, Build-a-Soil amendments Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Bloom
Strain: DJ Short Blueberry F4 "Fruity Line" + 1 random Cookie cross bagseed

 

[Lester Beans]

Lots of variation which is exactly what I am looking for!

The WLD Blueberry plant, just beautiful!

 

[Lester Beans]

And a Cookies hybrid of some sort bagseed..

I love the waxy leaves blue lines produce. They just look healthier somehow.
Ive got the TSL2000, I know the TS are the entry light for Mars, but they're great lights. The SP's though, believe it or not, do run cooler. But the extra spread from the TS just seems a little bit kinder somehow. Anyway, tagging along mate.

 

[Lester Beans]

Howdy GMT! Thanks for stopping by!

I actually have another room just built, need to outfit it with Mars. It's an 8x7 so waiting to hear back what Mars thinks is the best combo for that.

The Blue lines are the lines for me. I always go back to it. The peaceful happy effects are just not found in other strains. Also daytime or nighttime plants in the same line. It really has it all. I'm excited.

Some Blueberry shots, starting to frost up now. Also the cookies bagseed, and fresh cookies cuts.

[GMT]

That's a rather drastic defoliation isn't it?

 

[Lester Beans]

It just looks that way from the side view into the tent. The view down is current and gives a better idea of what the plants look like. I only took inward facing leaves or leaves directly blocking flowers. I will get some full plant pics once I'm done washing pots.

 

[GMT]

I'll be honest, I never understood why people want the flowers exposed to the light. I always prefer my buds to be shaded by leaves wherever possible. I find they develop more sparkles in the shade. I like leaves exposed to the light where they can collect energy.

 

[Lester Beans]

I agree with that on some strains. Like tomatoes they like some shade. These are just lanky, 12/12 from seed plants to see what's up, so I needed to make some room for the led to get to some of the lowers.

Once clones are run it will be an even pretty canopy.

I have short wide leaf, tall narrower leaf and everything in between in this here pheno hunt. Blueberry smells are amazing!

 

[gizmo666]

how do you feel about the 12/12 lester
i too feel mine have went very lanky
yours have budded up well tho

 

[Lester Beans]

For pheno hunting it is great, or maybe with long flowering plants. We used to grow jack herer 12/12 from seed. Nl/haze too.

I am going to grow the clones out of these to get a better idea on flowering time and yield. This is just a taste and I can't wait to taste!
