you could do 1 or 4 depending how long a veg and how wide they get. in a Sea of Green you could do 25 if you go 12/12 from clone or seed. depends on your growing style. I would suggest 4 makes it easy and gives you some room. 2-3 gal pots.

thanks for the replies.
I am bettween 2 x 20 Liters pots, and 4 x 12 Liters ....
The strains are (Lemon Haze, and Dance World) from RQS.

I like the 4 option as you can veg shorter so the roots fill in. and then you can do big ones later as you have time to train them.

I use that light, good for 1 medium size plant, your tripping running 4 plants under that, you might get an ounce per plant, better of running 2 small plants or 1

Ye I'm not a commercial grower at all. I only grow to make oil for a cancer suffer I know so it's quality over quantity Everytime for me.

If the unit it shite then hopefully my journal/blog/thread will save people a few quid.

I'm hopeful of more than 2oZ per plant tho :/

What made you choose the mars? Cree led's have mixed reviews.

Anybody rocking the Mars 2 cree 128 ? i know i know plc, tastyled are much better believe me, i already have a few lamps from each company. Over the budget as is so was thinking and hoping the new cree chips they rocking are much better in performance than the earlier models.

If anyone could provide expertise info please do so! will be greatly appreciated.

i took this part number from the mars web site, its a cree chip, but its very small, each chip only costs $1.76 yes just over a buck and a half, each,, lol, and they only put out 93 lumens each,, nothing like a big cree 3590 or an older cxa3070,,
here is the page for the cree chip mars is using

Hey Smoken-n-Token , Yeah I figured all that , Here is the add
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/MarsHydro-Reflector-600w-Led-Grow-Light-Growth-Flower-Switches-Grow-Lamp-Panel-/280980995708?pt=AU_Seed_Starting_Hydroponics&hash=item416bc5be7c


I understand that it wont be 600w , They do at least try & state in their listing that in aus which is 240v I should at least get 350w to 364 w
  • Output power: 600Watt
  • Power consumption: 110V: 370W-384W/220V: 350W-364W
My test came back as 260w, Oh well, Few guys on here are still having a good run with it, So lets see in a few months,
Fingers crossed,
Cheers guys & gals

If your Panel is using 100w less then the advertised watt draw it has a problem and should be sent in for warranty.
Its my understanding that the cheapest white 600w panels draw 260w and are labeled at 285 watt + - 10%
Are you comparing the white panel to the green panels rating or the green panel to its green panel rating ?
