Just got my Mars 300 and set up my grow box +PICS

So my Mars 300 came in today and I decided to build a 24x24x50 grow tent at work...

Success!!!

I'm gonna leave it for another week then flower it and add one more for 12/12 from seed.

I love my grow box!!

mars def grow but are not known for their longevity, hopefully whoever you bought it from is giving you a year warranty at least

Personally I would veg a little longer. Are you sure your grow area you built is light proof?

How much longer would you go?
As far as the light proof, It may not be...yet I'm gonna add some Mylar or something like that to the inside and I have some black fabric to wrap the outside

I would go at least 2 weeks personally. Gives you time to top a couple times and get more bud sites at the canopy. You want to squeeze all the yield you can out of it.

I have a Mars Hydro 600. They are okay in veg but not very good in flower. I would not but another one.

I topped it today, the way it looks there will be 4-6 new tops. I supercropped two weeks ago and she has a nice knuckle on her now. Today was also a feeding day. I'm just gonna wait until it heals then switch to flowering. Should the light be closer than 12 inches away?

I don't have experience with mars or any led other than cobs now, so can't say for sure, but as long as you are getting good coverage and not burning leaves then yes.
