That’s enough to get your plant through all phases of growth. More specifically, the spectrum on the Mars Hydro TS 1000 and the Mars Hydro TSW 2000 is made up of 660nm (red), along with 3200-4200 kelvin, and 5200-6800 kelvin white spectrum.

When it comes to these Mars Hydro TS Series grow lights, the TS 1000 will likely get you a moderate yield based on its light intensity. I’ve written about white light spectrum here and light intensity here. In fact, one study found it resulted in 12 to 16% higher tomato yields.¹ White spectrum has been shown to be better than red and blue alone. The Mars Hydro TS 1000 and the TSW 2000 LED grow lights feature a white light spectrum. Keep in mind there are a lot of factors that affect plant growth, so these are approximations. How much can you yield with this light? Mars Hydro says you’ll get up to 1.5g/watt from the TS Series grow lights. Thankfully, Mars Hydro was kind enough to include a single outlet timer so you don’t need to manually unplug the grow light after each day’s light cycle. The lights go on when you insert the power cord into your outlet, and vice versa. You’ll notice there are no cooling fans, but even more extreme is the lack of a power switch.
The TS Series grow lights are very bare bones. On the TSW 2000 you may want to dim it a bit during the vegetative phase since the light intensity gets up over 900 uMols on this light when it’s hanging at 18 inches, and that can be too strong for your young plants. You won’t need to dim the TS 1000, as the highest intensity of about 500 uMol is exactly what’s needed for the vegetative phase, and wouldn’t require dimming during flowering either.

Features: Full Specifications Table:īoth the Mars Hydro TS 1000 and the TSW 2000 come with a dimmable ballast. Does it matter? Based on the spectrum and intensity, I’d say no.ĭoes the LED type matter qualtiy-wise? Probably not too much, and these Mars Hydro grow lights come with a 3 year warranty so I don’t worry much about it anyway. The HLG quantum boards use Samsung LM301B diodes, and these Mars Hydro use unbranded SMD diodes.
The real only difference between these Mars Hydro TS Series grow lights and quantum boards is the LED brand. The aluminum reflector surrounding the LED panel is thin, and can seem a bit flimsy, but ultimately it gets the job done, especially when you keep in mind the entry level grow light market the TS Series is aimed at. Mars Hydro realized the indoor growing community was moving towards quantum board LED grow lights, so they designed an entry level light that can compete with quantum boards on every aspect: The features also put them on par with the smaller quantum board LED grow lights, but at a mass production price. They’re aimed directly at indoor growers who want a cheap LED grow light that actually performs. The Mars Hydro TS 1000 and TSW 2000 LED grow lights are just the opposite. They don’t look that complicated, but that’s the whole point.Ĭheap LED grow lights on Amazon are still heavy, less energy efficient, and many emit an unbalanced light spectrum. The design of the new TS Series grow lights differentiates them from most other low cost LED grow lights on Amazon. ( Click Here to View or Buy at LED Grow Lights Depot)
