2nd grow...Auto's in a grow tent...

Locked · Mar 12, 2009

Getting set up for my 2nd grow even though I am still in the middle of my first... Bought a 2' by 4' by 5' grow tent on ebay for 99 bucks free shipping and will be growing 5 Auto Fem White Dwarfs by Buddha... Not sure if I want to go with cfl's for the whole grow or if I want to pick up a cheap 400w mh or hps lighting system from HTGsupply... I have four 300watt equivalent CFL's but not sure if they will provide enough light for the tent...Here is some pics...

Looks like everything is good to go. Crazy little tent you got there, I wouldn't mind having one! Happy growing buddy!

Thanks Mental...Let me know if you want the link to the grow tent... I wish I had just bought this tent from the get go...I spent almost as much on the cabinet from Lowes that is so much smaller... Now I just hve to talk the wife into letting me get yet another lighting system...

Hey Hamster - I think you know a 400 watt hid is the way to go. :beatnik: No that you have a hot setup, your lights won't cover the 4 feet width very well.

Yes I kinda know......

but I am still in denial until I figure out a way to get the wifey to go along with yet another grow related purchase...

She probably figures it is coming after buying the grow tent...

I usually spend first and tell her later - or better yet I don;t tell her and when she fins out i swear i thought I told her. Either way i lose but I DO have a killer lighting set up - worth the grief and:angrywife: :hitchair:

Hey Pop... thanks for the kind words... I am psyched to get started on this Auto tent grow... maybe tomorrow... thanks for checkin in on me...

thedonofchronic · Mar 14, 2009

i want to get a tent like that
grab an hps if your thinking about it
ill be watching bro

Locked · Mar 14, 2009

thanks Don...the tent was a good buy on ebay for sure...gonna order another lighting system tonight i think...maybe 400w Hps with a conversion bulb..

Locked · Mar 14, 2009

Quick update... just ordered a 400w HPS/MH conversion light system from HTGsupply...so now I will start the seeds tomorrow and grow under cfl's till the 400w system gets here and I set it up... I want to make sure I give this grow my best shot and do it right because if the results are good I will probably grow autos most of the time for a steady stream of good smokeable bud and then grow more flavorful and interesting strains on the side for dessert....

MeNtAlPaTiEnT · Mar 14, 2009

Awsome light, been pondering a 400 watter myself. All the best on the seeds cracking

Have my 5 Fem Auto White Dwarfs Germin in a wet paper towel in a Zip lock baggie.... Hooked up and hung the lights in the tent and am doing a temp check to see how much ventilation I will need... the great part about this tent is it has many vent holes already installed...

thedonofchronic · Mar 14, 2009
