Mars Hydro Mars600 Led Grow lights information

You will need to change the height of the unit to focus its energy directly on the indoor plant.

Power and grow lights full spectrum led
Unlike many of the LED grow systems on the market today this MarsHydro system uses 5Watt Epistar red and blue LEDs. Most systems in this price and you 2 or 3Watt LEDs. These LEDs produce a full spectrum of light which provides your plants with every bit of energy they need to grow healthy buds. You will need to use a white light to view your plants as the purple hue cast by the LEDs makes it hard to see how green your plants are. This means the led lights have a par value which is perfect for cannabis growing both vegetation and flowering stages.
