Packs, I also meant to ask how you're planning on venting your exhaust. Are you planning on running your ducting outside or just into the room where the tent sits?
If outside, you'll probably want to spend a couple extra bucks per linear foot and get insulated ducting instead of just the regular aluminum. No point having your ductwork radiate hot air back into your space while you're in the process of venting it away.
@OldPine thanks for the recommendations on fan/filter.. as for venting I would love to vent through my ceiling to a vent cap that was to an old bathroom fan that was relocated. But if not I will be dumping it into the same room or the next room. Any recommendations on this? And also how about fresh air should I purchase a little fan to help suck air into the tent? Sorry guys for all the questions. I swear I'm spending countless hours reading ,watching and taking notes on numerous grows to help gain a overall understanding.Packs, I also meant to ask how you're planning on venting your exhaust.

Totally agree. Most of the time, a room build will be cheaper than a gorilla. Of course, the nice thing about tents is that they can be taken down and hidden away if absolutely necessary (or if moving).
Another great point for Packs to consider. The gorillas do have a clear height advantage. They have expansion kits to make them even taller. Unless I've missed them somewhere, no other tent competes on height...which could definitely come in handy for sativas, especially if you have them elevated off the floor at all.
That said, I've grown some stretchy sativa leaning hybrids in my hydrobay without too much trouble. Of course, this required a bit more training.
If you have the ability to vent to the old bathroom fan or to an adjacent room, that would be preferable. But it's not the end of the world if you have to vent into the same room. You'll just have more heat to deal with and may want to find a way to get fresh air into that room so that the air being recirculated into the tent isn't stale. In either case, I'd opt for the insulated ducting so that you can vent elsewhere in the future if it becomes an option. It's marginally more expensive but worth it IMO.@OldPine thanks for the recommendations on fan/filter.. as for venting I would love to vent through my ceiling to a vent cap that was to an old bathroom fan that was relocated.

They have a habit of doing the bulk of their dramatic growing while our eyes are averted!Just described my current situatuon. Little neglect on training in time, my blue dreams blew up. Tossed a trellis up yesterday to help, in week 2 flower...itll be intresting how this ends. I Started a grow diary
This stuff comes with a little brush making it easy to apply. Also it doesn't rub off over time like rtv. Dries with a hard coat to it. I know all about rtv lol, was an Audi tech for 11yrs. Don't miss turning wrenches at allRtv sealant from the automotive aisle will work the same but my light leaks mainly at the zipper.
Is this a good way to set up the light and filter? . Obviously the filter will be up higher and have the fan mounted outside the tent exhausting outside View attachment 647841[/QUOTE
Nvm....

That makes sense. thank you. I wanted to run air-cooled venting on the light but the tent I ordered for some reason doesnt have the venting holes on each side of the tent, so I figured something in this route was my only option.Connect the fan to the filter then run the duct to the light. The duct from the light outside the tent.
Lol rmoltis beat me to it
I started to say that but he says he's gonna do that in the first post lolYou will also want the carbon filter as high up as possible. Touching the ceiling. That way as the heat rises it gets drawn right out.
If your filter is too low it will leave a layer of heat in the top of the tent bringing the overall temp higher.

In that case I'm glad I had time to delete my post.
