Philosopher and mephisto both have autos here on the farm
Tents suck, if I had money to frame a room Id sell you two used ones...
all i can say is nine plants is bullshit hah.Nope? No one else got an answer. I wanna know before I buy that grow box
Actually no, I can fit a bigger tent. It's my first grow which is why I had to ask. But if I can get better for the money that's a good enough reason. What do you have in mind?all i can say is nine plants is bullshit hah.
for the money you could do better.. im assuming that is the biggest tent you can fit correct?>
chris.
You can build a temporary room with Styrofoam insulation board, gorilla tape to tape it together and to the carpet, and painters tape to attach it to the ceiling (to keep from damaging paint when removed). It's easy to cut holes in for venting and cheap. 1" thick will work but needs a wood frame and cardboard to block light.A room would be awesome but I live in an apartment so I don't think I'll be able to do that
Hey
Newbie grower here.
I am planning my first grow and would really appreciate some help. I am working on an indoor grow and planning on using auto flower in a hytroponics setup. I am looking for a tent reasonably sized that can fit in my closet.
This is what I had in mind but I wanted some opinions before I purchased.

Also a place where I can purchase the best quality autoflower seeds would appreciated.
Cheers
I have a grandmas secret garden. Get a 4 x 4 tent and filtration etc instead. You can grow maybe 3 oz at a go in that garden. A 4 x 4 tent you can grow way more. I should have gone the tent route but live and learn. I now use the secret garden to start seedlings to put in my tent. I will trick it out this fall with filtration that works and use it as a dryer for harvests. In my opinion the secret garden is a waste of money.
You can get a tent grow kit that has everything you need for about the same price. If money is not an issue get a timber light kit that will fit the tent. If it is get a mars grow light to get things started.
I live in Canada and i bought my stuff from this place
http://www.growlights.ca/4-x-4-custom-grow-tent-kit.html
With a tent and 6 inch filtration system and a 315 CMH light the whole thing costs 740.00 Canadian (which is about 570 bucks USD and cheaper than that grow box).
If I sway you away from that secret garden I feel I have done a good thing for a fellow grower. :)

Good advice! Because im a curious as shit, and had thought about it myself, what was the idea you came up with for your stealth board? LOL I get more fun out of the design and prototype than growing sometimes!You can use thicker than 1". But that stuff is seriously flammable. A tent is a convenient and safe option. I have had them right in my living room sharing the house hvac. Exhausting out a stealth board over a window in summer and right into the living room in winter. To help heat the house with my 600w lamp.
And they break right down if neccesary.
I did make black tape flaps around where the zippers leaked light and made a lightproof set of intakes with semi flexible aluminum duct bent in an upside down "U" with black filter foam over each end to light proof.
I still use one in the spare bedroom for veg. I really like them. But the zipper on my secret jardin is failing after 3 years of continuous use.
Thats too big and and crazy looking... My neighbors would be like wtf???I thought of building something like a giant bat box around a window and will probably build one soon, adding a hinge for opening window.
Lol, build it on the inside. Make a frame that rises out from the wall 4 or 6 inches and add a few boards/foam board over top of the window and blinds. One with the air gap at the top and a hole at the bottom of the box to let air go in the bottom, up around the first board, then out the window. It would be completely light proof because of the bends created by staggering the air openings and still allow for airflow and you could even open the window if you made it removable.Thats too big and and crazy looking... My neighbors would be like wtf???
right.. I dont need one, I just wanted to see what kind of cool design ppl have come up with.. There is no smel protection, or theft protection, or snoopy cop protection. Plus it looks getto! when you are in my house, you dont even know there is a grow room. No smell, no sounds, no light, completely sealed in a tent, in a grow room behind 3 locked doors!Take a cardboard box the same size as the window with the top flaps cut off. Cut the box in half from top to bottom, and flip one half upside down. Put the upside down part over the windows top and trim the other half to fit under the top part. The air would rush up and over the cardboard and out the window. This is the shape I'm trying to convey, I guess cardboard might work but if you could build it from wood and hinge it, it would allow you to Crack open window and leave blinds in place while allowing air flow and blocking light,
