The VG80 LED T5 Grow Light is designed for seedlings, cloning, vegetable propagation, and indoor tropical plant cultivation, offering wide coverage and low power consumption. It features a full-spectrum design, using OSRAM chips, and has an IP65 waterproof rating, making it suitable for fast growth of clones and low DLI green leaf plants. It consumes less energy and costs less electricity than fluorescent T5 bulbs. Providing high-quality vegetable light, the VG80 promotes healthy plant growth.

  • Wattage - 80W (40W Each Light Bar)
  • Core Coverage: 4ft*2ft
  • Recommended tent size: 120x60cm

Features & Benefits

  • Energy-efficient: Capable of providing high light intensity with lower energy consumption, contributing to reduced electricity costs.
  • Long lifespan: Fewer tube replacements and maintenance costs.
  • Low heat generation: Unlike traditional fluorescent tubes, LED tube produces very little heat, aiding in maintaining indoor temperatures.
  • Compact design: Thinner than traditional T5 fluorescent tubes, making it easier to install on plant cultivation racks or in planting boxes.

Daisy Chain and Functional Diversity

The VG80's easy installation and ability to daisy-chain up to 20 LED lights make it convenient for commercial growers. It is also compatible with various indoor planting systems, including bottom, side, under-lighting, and top lighting, and can also solve slow growth and narrow leaves due to insufficient light in tall plants.

Optimized for Cloning and Vegetative Growth

The VG80 is a low DLI plant light designed specifically for vegetables, seedlings, and clones. With only 80 watts of power, its low heat output allows it to be hung at a lower height on plant racks without harming plants. Despite the low wattage, it can cover a large area and achieve the same effect with less energy consumption.

IP65-Rated Water Resistance

The VG80’s light panel is installed with a special transparent waterproof lampshade to protect the diode and circuit from moisture, ensuring that it can work properly in highly humid environments without shortening its lifespan. The interface of the VG80 is also made with a special waterproof treatment to ensure that the whole grow light is water-resistant.=

Cost-Effective Option and Maximum Production

While the VG80 can be used for seedling cultivation and cloning separately, however, if it is coupled with lights that are more suitable for the flowering stage along with adopting a cyclic planting method the VG80 can shorten the harvest cycle and maximize your yield.

A T5/T8/T12 Replacement and a Partner for Plant Racks and Stands

The VG80 is an optimal LED alternative for T5/T8/T12 fluorescent grow lights and provides effective, potent, and cool lighting performance on plant racks, plant shelves, and plant stands.


Mars Hydro VG80 Works Great For Growing Mushrooms

In the intricate world of mushroom cultivation, the role of lighting is paramount. But what is the best light for mushroom growing? The Mars Hydro VG80 LED grow lights have been specifically designed to meet the unique requirements of this niche. These lights not only provide the optimal spectrum and intensity for mushroom growth but also incorporate energy-efficient LED technology, crucial for long-term cultivation.

Specialized Light Spectrum for Mushroom Growth

Mushrooms thrive under a specific light spectrum, notably the blue light at the 400-500 nanometer wavelength range. This is where the Mars Hydro VG80 excels. They emit light within this spectrum, particularly beneficial during the crucial fruiting stage when mushrooms develop spores. This mimicry of natural daylight is vital as mushrooms grow best under conditions that closely resemble natural sunlight.

Mushrooms require a unique approach to lighting compared to typical plants. Most mushroom varieties need only minimal light, primarily to trigger the fruiting process. Both the VG40 and VG80 offer adjustable settings for light intensity and duration, allowing growers to provide just enough light to support mushroom growth without overexposure. This flexibility is crucial for maintaining the right balance of light for extended periods.

An amazing story not to be missed!
Format: Kindle
This just might be my most favorite book of the year! I know we’re only in February, but still! This has long been waiting on my TBR pile and I could kick myself for taking so long to pick this up. This is a YA historical sapphic tale set in 1950s San Francisco. Lily a high school senior is the epitome of a “good Chinese girl” responsible and respectful. Her world is thrown into a tailspin when she realizes that she likes girls. Accompanying her in this discovery is Kath, a fellow senior and together they find “themselves” under the heady atmosphere of the Telegraph Club. There was so much to love about this book from the authenticity of the backdrop to the incredibly sweet romance playing out. Malinda Lo has clearly done a ton of research (check out her Author’s note, it’s amazing), you can see it come to life in the rich description of the city, the smokey club, the character mannerisms and interactions. All of which have that ring of reality to it and serves to completely immerse you in that time period. I loved how Lo slowly built out Lily’s affirmation of who she is from feeling initially guilty about her attraction, to being brave enough to seek out the Telegraph Club to proudly standing up to her beliefs and her love for Kath. There are lots of side characters and side stories, all serving the purpose of highlighting the political climate, drama and mental makeup of the characters. But my favorite was Lily’s aunt and role model Judy. Her last line “I don’t understand what you’ve been going through, but you’ll just have to put up with me until I do understand.” was just perfect and you know inside that Lily would be okay with Judy in her corner. That last portion of the book is a lip wobbler so get ready coz it packs a punch and that epilogue was just pure class. No saccharine HEA but something filled with lots of love and hope. The hype is well deserved! So don’t put it off anymore just go read it! Easily 5🌟s

A beautiful story of difficult times to be who you truly were!
Format: Kindle
”She felt as if she had finally cracked the last part of a code she had been puzzling over for so long that she couldn’t remember when she had started deciphering it. She felt exhilarated." Meet seventeen year old Lily Hu, who lives in San Francisco in the 1950’s. She is Chinese American and dreams of going to college and working with her Aunt at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, to assist with getting a rocket into space. Her and her friend Kathleen Miller, aka Kath, are the only two girls in their advanced math class. Kath dreams of becoming a pilot one day. Over time, Lily finds ads in magazines of male impersonators and is fascinated. The ad slips out of one of her books one day while she is in the bathroom, and her classmate Kath finds it. She tells her that she has seen the male impersonator in the ad before, Tommy Andrews, at the Telegraph Club. She tells Lily she can take her if she wants to go and Lily agrees. She wants to explore the feelings she has that she cannot quite explain yet. Over time, Lily’s feelings for Kath change from that of a friendship to something much more. Malinda Lo did an unquestionably, fantastic job with this YA historical fiction LGBTQ novel. She touched on a subject that many authors have not written about; being an Asian American teen that identifies as a lesbian in the 1950’s. This was during a time when being gay was considered illegal, where there could be no public affection shown between members of the same sex, and when gay members could not congregate in bars/clubs. It was also during a time when the government was looking for communists. One wrong move, and Lily and her family could potentially be deported just based off of who they socialized with. Lo did her research and it shows. I especially appreciated the “Author’s Notes” section at the end of the book which gave additional information and pictures. I believe this would be a great read for younger members of the LGBTQ community. My only critiques would be that towards the middle of the book it felt a tad slow. I also wished there was more information on how Lily and Kath’s relationship turned out. In the epilogue, their relationship status is left open and I wished I knew more about what the future held for them.
