I recently decided to purchase a completely new set up. i have done about 5 grows in the past and 2 were successful. i have been using cfl's and cardboard walls with mylar and i never had the Concealed" or hidden grow room design so light leaks Galore. i bought a package deal on ebay, i live in an apt where i have been growing for about a yr and a half. i do not have a lot of room and the little space i do have is housing my old dresser (new veg room) i lined my dresser with mylar and made a door to keep all the light in. i have one T-8 fixture that holds 2 bulbs (got it from home depot fixture was $22 and light bulbs were $9) i have 4 white widow and 3 unknown strains (part blue mystic). the system i bought looks great and i dropped $600 for everything so i am hoping it was a good decision on my part so i can finally start growing with real ferts and light. the only concern i am having is that the tent is made with PVC even though the website clearly makes it sound like the system was designed for growing. will it be ok to use still or do i need to try and use a different tent/ grow room? i hope i can use the tent as is because it is already bought and i don't have money to try and buy other components rite now. i am going to buy 2 or 3 more good fans from wal mart or home depot and i think that should be enough ventilation to keep the temps down when used with the 4' 80 cfm extractor fan at the top of the tent. any advise or warnings are appreciated! i cannot post links yet, but the kit is from HTG supply and here is wut it says about the tent it's self:
A thermal sealed water-proof double floor affixes into the bottom of the grow tent. The water-proof floor stands about 6" high and attaches to the sides of the tent using prestitched velcro fasteners and allows for placement of the grow tent on any surface without the fear of damage from water overflow.
Convenient 4" vent ports on the back of the tent can act as cord access holes with light proof velcro covers near the top and bottom of the grow tent. This allows cords etc. to be ran into the interior of the grow chamber. Velcro cord straps inside the grow tent near the cord access holes and in the center of the roof are provided to hold cords neatly in place.
The unit assembles in less than 20 minutes with no tools needed.
This grow tent is superior to other "grow boxes" being sold because: a) More vent ports / access holes than other grow tents b) 4" metal flange is included (not an an additional add-on) c) Hard Sided, Rigid grow cabinets are big, bulky and expensive to ship and transport. Our folds up easily back into it's box if you ever wish to move it to another location or stored. d). Value. Our system is the lowest priced system with the premium features you need to grow the best possible plants. No complicated or homemade plug-in electric hydro system - just simple, easy-to-use and effective hydroponic growing methods combined with a top-quality lighting system, superior grow tent and an effective cooling/ventilation set-up.
