Sticker on the back says 140w ? What's all that about then ? Is it pony or is it worth a go ?
From what I've seen the LEDs are good for veg'n but does anyone know if this particular light is any good ?

Anyone know anything about them ? I've just been given a Mars hydro led and don't know the slightest thing about em ! I am thinking this along with a cdm could be a good combo ?

That said a) quite a few people seem to use them, and if you didn't buy it there's nothing to lose😊
There's a massive thread over on the old place for them. Think their a sponsor?

Roy I think @A1sativa uses a Mars LED, who recently finished 2 plant scrog with it with some amazing results.
I think your 140w would only be good for one plant I'd think depends on age of it. The new Mars have got alot better
now with what watt LED's they are putting in them, some even come with remote control and timer.
I've using an Advanced XTE 200 LED which i think is 185w and I'm growing 2 to 3 plants under it. Like captain said you get tight nodes and shorter plants,
plus am sure depending on strain you get much froster buds from LED.

The Mars 2 (black panels) are OK but are not powerful. They run at way less than 50% capacity and the diodes don't last long enough
But you didn't buy it so fuck it
Yes use it as additional lighting mate, just a boost. The different spectrum might help somewhat
