Like many other brands Mars Hydro also finally decided to launch its quantum board full-spectrum white LED grow lights.
Although they’re somewhat similar, there are still a few differences that we’ll be discussing in detail as you read further.The most noticeable similarity, however, is the fact that they both use a full spectrum of white LED lights that are like a mixture of crisp white and warm white lights.
Additional red diodes are also present to supplement the white light.
It is one of the most reliable products of Mars Hydro, and the spectrum is super useful for the plants.However, upon popular demand, we’ll be disclosing the reviews of two of their stand out grow light series- the MARS HYDRO TS series LED lights and the SP series as well.Without wasting any further seconds, let’s get right into it.Mars Hydro SP Series ReviewThe following review will be mainly focused on the Mars Hydro SP 250, but since it’s pretty similar to the SP 150, then we are really covering them both except for a few minor differences.AdvantagesThe Mars Hydro SP Series comes with three distinct features, first is the color spectrum, second is the high output per watt consumed, and lastly, its low cost.We’re happy to say that Mars Hydro has also finally joined the ‘white light revolution.’ Mars Hydro makes use of the white SMD diodes by Epistar, giving them a lot of similarity to many other quantum board lights.The addition of IR and UV lights to the spectrum, however, has given Mars Hydro a competitive edge, where most other all-white LED lights don’t compare.
The SP 250 also consists of red diodes, and the addition of those red diodes along with the IR and UV lights makes it pretty similar to some of the top quality COB lights.What most quantum board spectrum lights lack is the addition of UV and IR lights, and Mars Hydro brings all these things together along with the addition of the red light to make it stand out as one of the best LED grow lights on the market.The outcome it gives is a complete spectrum that is beneficial for all growth stages, and the presence of all these lights brings it very close to natural light.The prominent rectangular coverage of the SP series lights plays as an advantage for most people, but if you have a smaller, square grow tent, then it won’t be of much use to you.
But that is where the TS series will come in handy for you.But again, for bigger setups where there are at least a few rows of plants, the rectangular coverage of the SP series becomes a huge plus point.
