Starlink is awesomely quick.Mannn it’s been awhile since I saw that setup! But as soon as I saw it I was like damn!
Ps I like the gear on the desk
I like my setup and how I grow. Been at it far far too long to change around. I like Gorilla tents and the height they give me to work with. And I like my lights oppressively powerful per sq. ft. because of the options they afford me. I'm getting ready to retire the 3 x 3 and get a Gorilla 4 x 4 with 1' extension and High CFM Kit and a 8" ACI Exhaust fan. Then the question comes up do I stay with the HLG 650R Diablo and then add one of my 260 Rspecs to it if need be. Or just pop for a HLG Scorpion Diablo or a Tomahawk. And move the 3 x 3 setup on to a close friend or grandkid. Always have to think this stuff through.Mannn it’s been awhile since I saw that setup! But as soon as I saw it I was like damn!

Thanks for the reply.
What do I do with the molasses?
Some of us use molasses to feed microbes is the soil. It's a blazing fast food/energy source for some microbes. And is in some products used in horticulture to help boost microbial activity. Recharge comes to mind and I do use that product. But molasses can be a double edge sword like sugar can be for a human. If can be rocket fuel then drop us like a rock. Same thing can happen to the microbes in the horticulture world. I keep a jar of molasses in my supplies more because I like licking the spoon and remembering my Grandmother's oatmeal molasses cookies.
Personally I’d hand it down, go for the scorpion imo, I run a 4x4 and 4x8 but my 4x4 I swap out a phlizon FD6500(old style) (650w) and a PL4500 (430w) between runs, 4x8 is a cut in half Mars Hydro FC-E8000 I cut it in half to orientate it in n a 2x8 setup, can give each half of the 4x8 up to 420w (840w total available) but I gotta say for the densest buds outta the 3 lights the FD6500 threw the fuck down on the previous Frostette run, as well as the GP x okie run I’d definitely reccomend it if you wanna look around at lights, you could probably run the FD1000 in a 5x5 but personally I’d probably run the FD6500 in a 5x5 and max her out I never ran her over 65-70% in the 4x4 she just had too much juice to crank it up (probably woulda been prefect if I ran Co2 but I don’t lol) it’s also a large footprint 4x4 light she’s just about wall to wall in a 4x4
During the last four weeks of flower once a week you would add 1 tablespoon to 2 tablespoons a gallon when watering just water for the week. It’ll feed your microbes from the recharge. Go on YouTube and watch dude grows show. It sure helps me understand a lot more about plants and how they uptake nutrients.
You can go to the growdots site. For 20$ you can get your recharge and the nutrients you will need for two plants in 5 gallon buckets. It’s a bundle they got. Perfect nutrient line for you to start off I would say. Other than that I’d order some cal mag and you are good to go or just use epsom salt if you don’t want to spend more than 20$ and got that laying around instead of a bottle of cal mag. Growing is so easy and the plant really gives back if you let it. I’m excited for your journey
yeah but i have seen much more reports over the years on various cannabis internet place of people having issues with the mars TS series (half led from the panel stopping working properly, different connector catching fire etc.) than any other brand and models.
I keep seeing those posts/reviews also. maybe I got lucky? currently waiting on this Mars Hydro FC3000-EVO 300W (Samsung LM301H diodes) to be delivered. it will be my first bar-style light, hopefully no fires. they have it on sale for $220, I couldn't resist lol.

yeah moslty the old TS series, they may have updated some of the components tho' ....
thank you!
also i think what has an impact is the stabilty of intensity and voltage of your electrical network, this can vary widely from one location to another and some component resist better to unstable condition than some others it's possible mars has gone a little too cheap on some of the electrical components with the TS series.
I run a couple tsl-2000. Only problem I’ve had is the cable on one was kinda loose at the connection spot into the reflector. The drivers are detachable. I’ve got a few fc-e8000 as well. They are better made I would say. Both has detachable drivers. Never had a connection cord problem. The ts series is alright for veg because of the quantum board design style.
