It will work but I'd go the 900 get a true 400w it's what I run in my 4x4 . If you add some side hps like 150 watch them say thanks . :fire:So if i did decide to get a 4x4 veg tent do you think a mars 700w would be enough for it? The footprint for the mars 700 says its 3.5x3.5, do you think i will need to get so supplemental lighting? If so what kind cfl or led? brands?
Orrrrrr Should i just get 2 4ft 8bulb tf fixtures and call it a day? Input welcome!
im confused...are you telling me to get the mars 900? whats a true 400w? like a 400w MH/HPS?It will work but I'd go the 900 get a true 400w it's what I run in my 4x4 . If you add some side hps like 150 watch them say thanks . :fire:
i dont know what you mean by hps kickers? Is it something i would need an additional ballast for? Could you give me maybe an example id find on amazon or another site? Please and thank youThe Mars 900 draws 400 w . I also use some hps kickers to speed things up .

They also make a double 315 lec ( cmh)bulb fixture for a total of 630 watts.
ii kn
I know and i want one bc i know what a bad ass job they do but if i get one I would much rather us it for flowering and i already have a 1k light so what? I would put the 1k in my 4x4 veg and the double ended 315 in my 5x5 flower tent? I think getting the led for the 4x4 and keeping my 1k for my 5x5 flower until i can afford a bigger flower space, then i will deff add a 315 or 2....but thanks for the suggestion buddy!

MarsHydro 400W 700W 900W 1200W 1600W Hydroponic Led Grow Light for Indoor Plant Growing Lamp with Full Spectrum and Strong Penetration (900W)
OR THIS ONE
MarsHdyro Reflector 240W 480W 720W 960W LED Grow Light Veg Flower Switchable Spectrum(960W)
keep in mind i will only be using it for veg
EDIT: Actually scratch that bc using the mars website i can get the mars2 1200 for only more bucks then the 900w on amazon...i think ill just splurge for the mars2 1200 for my 4x4 veg tent!
Well as long as its not as hot as my 1k hid i think i will be fine....you think it will put off more heat then the 1k mh im running right now?The reflector version is just that. Less leds because each one is housed in it's own little reflective "hood." I've never seen them in action.
Be aware that the 1200 will dump a lot of heat into the tent. It's not cool by any means.
Yea well its either that or 2 Hydro Crunch 4ft 8 bulb T5 fixtures and i would put them side by side in the 4x4. I think the mars 1200 will give them a better spectrum for veg, don't ya think?The 1200 will do a 4' x 4' tent just fine. I used that exact setup for over a year. It does an excellent job in veg. Obviously, don't flower with it. It's not strong enough.
I mean, you can flower with it, but it's not very powerful. Buds are lighter/fluffier than with HID. Depending on the strain, my HPS will make rock hard buds. The Mars, even the tops getting the most light will not be super dense/hard.
For a veg tent though...all thumbs up.
