So I mentioned I am doing some research to outfit my 40 ft trailer. I have gotten some really good feedback, and while I like the samsung quantum boards overall, the first one I received was in really shitty condition so I had to send it back. I decided to get off amazon, and found some online from Horticulture Lighting Group (link below) The pricepoint on Dual Mars SP150 with tax and shipping was 300 bucks and I have seen some some decent results on other forums, and this particular samsung board is 299.99. I paid 100 less on amazon for a similar board, but it was shitty enough quality where I sent it back immediately and it made me consider this experiment. Im a bit concerned with quality, and while I dont mind spending a little money now, I def dont want to buy lights for my trailer twice. I will post updates. I havegot some gorilla candy and watermelon zkittles on the way from seedsman so for now the plan is to put a couple of the same strains under each setup and see what happens. Should be fun trying to smoke it all when im done either way :)

Update: This is some bag seed that I Vegged under Blurple Box Lights, and just went to flower this week under the mars setup and seems to be responding well so far. I have figured out that unlike the SP250, the SP150 does not have IR chips. So I am thinking about throwing a box led in to cover the whole spectrum.

Im impressed with the quality of the light for sure, but that missing UV light sure does have my OCD flaring up. So I added a black box to supplement. This just makes the most sense to me.

thanks man. That saves a ton of money over 40 feet.
 
when they say set is that really 2 boards and a 240 driver for 115 dollars?
 
Heading into week 2 of flower. Plant is definitely responding well to the light upgrade. Starting to see more bud sites popping up after defoliating. I dont think it looks too bad so far.
