Buy the one thats not made in China!!! I was one of the people that experienced the Gassing-Off Nightmare!! From what i've researched the Homebox looks like the only one w/o those issues.Just make sure you've got good airflow coming in down low i.e.sqirrel cage fan.And you're Carbon-scrubber mounted uptop to pull out the hot stinky air!! You will also need a smaller supplemental fan placed [BLOWING] between the plant tops and the lights to ensure adequate air circulation.I was running my Extraction air through the cool-tube light set-up and out...Otherwise you're looking at some extreme Heat build-up.During veg. I was using a regular 400w Metal halide reflector without heat issues, once I bumped up to 600w Hps, cool-tube was a necessity. Good luck

If you're a hands on guy id go to home depot, or something similar and build your own. But thats just me, cuz think about it, theres not really that much to em.

I her a lot of people are having success with a grow tent called Secret Jardin, just make sure you get the better grade one, not the Street edition, hope that helps :-)

If your going for a 1.2 x 1.2 or 1.2 x 2.4 tent go for the Secret Jardin. I have just spent this week building quite a few and they go up in minutes. And they are so well contructed with tons of outlet / inley holes to fit as much vent as you could need.

The other sizes are good also, I have a DR 60 / 80 / 2 x 100 / 4 x 120 and 1 x 240w. I have access to many tents as I work in a hydro store and the dark rooms are by far the best seller and my person choice.

We have had loads of budboxs and homeboxes returned for por quality build.

Devil in the Details..

Most all fans and blowers have NO speed control.Soon as you plug them in they are going full-speed..and yes they can increase electrical usage.I use ''the Speedster'' motor speed controller.They sell for 30 dollars locally.The nice feature...they are 'plug and play''. No wiring to deal with. www.controlwizardproducts.
