Should I buy the mars hydro ts1000?

I have seen a lot of videos with people getting really good results with this light, but I am not sure because some people say that it shouldn’t be used as a flower light. But I feel like it could because of how strong it is. Please help.

The Mars-Hydro TS1000 is a decent budget light, not great, but decent for the price.
It's biggest problem is there's too much blue light in their spectrum, which triggers flowering later than it should, and yields can suffer as well.
If you can supplement it with some far red light during flower you'll be golden.

How you ever tried it out? Just curious?

I've not used it myself but many of my grow buddies on this forum have, and that is their biggest complaint, too much blue light.
It's comparable to what Viparspectra (whom I have used) does, loading up on blue helps increase PAR readings, but the light ultimately falls flat during flower due to not enough far red. Like I said though, you can supplement the far red light, to help during flowering.
