Who This Is For

  • You are switching to bar lights because your current board fixture leaves the tent corners dark and unproductive.
  • You are choosing the EVO series because you need high efficiency diodes to keep tent temperatures from spiking.

What We Found

  • The multi-bar design lets heat escape upward easily, so your tent stays much cooler than with solid board lights.
  • We noticed the Samsung EVO diodes produce a noticeably brighter, cleaner white light than the older LM301B models.

What Users Say

  • Users who switched to the multi-bar setup say they stopped rotating pots because light reaches the corners evenly.
  • Growers in humid setups say the IP65 coating prevents the flickering issues they had with unprotected boards.

Mars Hydro FC 3000 EVO Full Spectrum LED Grow Light

Struggling to achieve consistent, high-quality yields in your home grow? The Mars Hydro FC 3000 EVO is engineered to solve that problem, delivering professional-grade lighting in a compact and efficient package. Powered by advanced Samsung LM301H EVO diodes, this 300W fixture provides your plants with a tailored full spectrum, ensuring vigorous growth from seedling to harvest.

The FC 3000 EVO stands out with its exceptional efficiency of 2.85μmol/j and a multi-bar design that guarantees uniform photon distribution across the canopy. This means no more hot spots or weak corners, just consistent, powerful light where your plants need it most. It's the perfect lighting solution for a 3'x3' vegetative area or a 2.5'x2.5' flowering space, making it an ideal choice for growers using standard 3x3 grow tents. For growers needing to cover a larger area, the Mars Hydro FC 4800 EVO offers a powerful step up.

FAQs

What is the actual coverage area of the FC 3000 EVO?+

The FC 3000 EVO is designed to perfectly cover a 2.5' x 2.5' area for flowering and a 3' x 3' area for vegetative growth. This makes it an excellent choice for standard-sized home grow tents.

What makes the Samsung LM301H EVO diodes special?+

The Samsung LM301H EVO diodes are among the most efficient on the market. They produce more light (photons) per watt of electricity consumed compared to older diodes, leading to higher yields and lower energy bills. This efficiency is a key reason many growers are making the change, as outlined in our guide on the 5 reasons to switch from HPS to LED.

Can I connect multiple FC 3000 lights together?+

Yes, you can. The FC 3000 EVO features a daisy-chain function that allows you to connect and control up to 30 lights simultaneously from a single master light. This is perfect for scaling your operation without complex wiring.

Is this light suitable for a full grow cycle?+

Absolutely. The optimized full spectrum provides all the necessary light wavelengths for every stage of plant life, from seedlings and clones through vegetative growth and flowering. You can use this one light for the entire grow cycle.

How does the heat dissipation work without a fan?+

The FC 3000 EVO uses a passive cooling system. The wave-shaped heat sink is made of aluminum and has a large surface area, which allows it to efficiently and silently dissipate heat into the air without the need for mechanical fans. This reduces noise, energy use, and potential points of failure.

What size grow tent do you recommend for this light?+

For optimal results during the flowering stage, we recommend using the FC 3000 EVO in a 3'x3' grow tent. This size provides enough space for the light to cover the canopy evenly and allows for good airflow around your plants. The entire Mars Hydro lineup is designed to fit standard tent sizes.
