Take a look at spider farmer they've got some good kits if you search on here a few people have reviewed them plus they've got a rep on here might be able to sort you a good deal @SpiderFarmerLED

Mars Hydro recenty upgraded some of their grow kits to better lights, they're definetely worth a look.
If you have a decent budget then I would look at a Green Qube tent, an AC Infnity extraction fan, AC Infinity or Phresh Carbon filter (if it's important to keep the smell to a minimum)
Cheap 9 litre airpots from eBay or Amazon like mine are perfect if you want to grow 8-10 week auto strains, personally I'm loving them over the 3 gallon canvas bags I used the first time.
Good LED lights that are dimmable for the seedling stage and spend the extra money on GOOD soil/coco/whatever medium you are going to grow in.
My suggestion would be Canna Coco Pro+ and the Canna range of nutes, they're on the expensive side of nutes but also pretty much idiot proof (that's why I have been using them myself)

I would go for the at least the six 6 inch, I use the S line with a controller 67 in my 2x4x6ft, it is overkill but allows me to keep it at a lower setting and it makes almost no noise.
If you plan on a square meter or 2 then I would go for the 8 inch if you have the extra 50 quid.

There are also some great options in the world that are not the Mar/ Spyder.

Do your research.

Research is good but at some point you have to pull the trigger. You can research for months and still be unsure. Good advice and experience is best.

Personally, I'd go 4x4, but I like the 2x4 setup. This one is on amazon.ca. Replace .ca with .com for the US version (I think the US inventory is sold out)


There are good "how to" YouTube videos on setting up your tent. Check the out. They'll give you a good overview.

In future when you want to do more than one cycle look for a 3 chamber in one footprint style tent.
you can get clones, veg and bloom going on.
