Thanks, I have a 3x3x6 grow tent that I am currently using, but its taking up the space where i would like to place a desk
It won't fit in that closet if you remove the shelves? If those are 12" tiles then it looks like you may be able to fit it in there.
At a glance, I pictured a 3x3' tent in that closet as well (shelves removed).
It would, even without the tiles I can cram it in here, I was thinking of doing that too because if not then I wouldn't be using the tent at all
I'd do it that way, especially knowing that you've already got the tent. It has everything you need for vent ports, hanging equipment, maintaining a negative air pressure and humidity and temperature management.
Thing is I wanted to take advantage of the closet since its like 8 ft tall but that would have to be one huge ass plant to need all that space. I am used to my tent so thats whats nice but in the future id like to make this my grow closet
Thank you, I think I will end up doing that then, just have to make some holes in the drywall and thats it. Appreciate it yall
bro, what do you mean make holes in the dry wall, could you post a picture and explain more in detail, as for the grow tent suggestion made by others, i guess it really comes down to how many grows are you going to do and how long can the room be a grow room, are you in a rental or do you own the house or never get inspections, if you plan to use it for at least 18 months or longer i would put $250 US dollars into it and i can help you design and brain storm on how to deck the shit out of that room, make it professional durable strong and even so you can tear it down like a grow tent if you have too, make it so watering is a breeze and all you have to do is water from the top and make it all drain out into a drain or bucket so you dont have to take plants in and out of the tent to water it, you say you have 8 feet to work with, i can already see so much better things happening in that room for around $250 dollars US and a bit of elbow grease, when you could use a $150 to $250 dollar grow tent setup and throw it away because they are weak and not that sturdy, they are also not air proof, you could keep a positive or negative air flow in a sealed room way better and have better insulation for temps inside the growing area, and more air flow, less energy potentially on air conditioning, plus more space.
Thank you, I'm definitely interested in doing that. I do have the tent already though. I'll be in touch
First of all, I have five grow tents (2-4x4x7', 2-2x4x5' and 1-2x3x3'). Two of them I've been using for over seven years. The others, more than two. Open and close every single day at least once over that time period. They've been abused and beaten. They've held heavy equipment constantly. I have never had any problems with them being "weak and not that sturdy". I've never even had a problem with a single zipper. You obviously have never grown in a proper tent.
Thats great for you brother but dont act like the tent is not degrading quicker then a correctly made wooden grow room/box, i have grown in a "proper tent" and while i agree they are sturdy enough for the grow, unless you line with water the mat in the bottom will degrade the walls slowly start to look ratty and you can see the wear and tear, its easy to poke a hole in the tent, you cannot mount a carbon filter or a oscillating fan of any decent size to the wall in whatever position you want unlike a solid grow box or room. they leak more air and can never be fully sealed. less smell proof, ect. less light proof. they are pretty good and 95 percent light proof just i have had leaks and have had to always readjust zip ties and air intake and outtake vents with zip ties.

I'm curious to learn more about your grow box. Can you share the specification documentation?Thats great for you brother but dont act like the tent is not degrading quicker then a correctly made wooden grow room/box, i have grown in a "proper tent" and while i agree they are sturdy enough for the grow, unless you line with water the mat in the bottom will degrade the walls slowly start to look ratty and you can see the wear and tear, its easy to poke a hole in the tent, you cannot mount a carbon filter or a oscillating fan of any decent size to the wall in whatever position you want unlike a solid grow box or room. they leak more air and can never be fully sealed. less smell proof, ect. less light proof. they are pretty good and 95 percent light proof just i have had leaks and have had to always readjust zip ties and air intake and outtake vents with zip ties.
and they have a cheap feel to them unlike something solid. also the plastic joints for connecting the thin and weak posts have snapped on me plenty of times and i have had to duct tape them together, they are pretty weak. you must be taking really good care of your tents which i think thats great. no need to come on here and try and tell me that a weak grow tent is superior to a solid sealed grow box that has been engineered to pull down just like a grow tent, my design will out last and out perform a grow tent any day, also can do many things a tent cannot do.
not saying dont use tents but if u can and have the privacy i highly recommend it.
brother you are incorrect about your statement about negative and positive air pressures in a sealed room, please do not come on these forums spreading misinformation as it just brings everyone down.
air conditioning blowing in sealed room causing crazy air pressure
The air conditioning blowing in my sealed flower room makes it near impossible to close the door. it swings open so fast if I don't put something heavy behind it. Any suggestions? Is it okay that the door swings open like crazy. Like right now there is no door knob on the door (no c02 yet) and...Positive and Negative Pressure Rooms

and also you do not need C02 in a sealed grow room, as long as you have adequate air flow. It is probably more common then not, to have air intake and out takes in a sealed room, then to have no air in take and outtake and just use co2, even then you still have air in and out on your A/C unit.
I dont mean to be offensive Spek9 but i just burnt you bad, but dont comment on my things and tell me i am wrong when you are infact the one who is mistaken and wrong, how embarrassing <3 i love talking with you but just think before you say brother save me a lot of typing
Also, please post some pictures of your grows that you've completed successfully in your grow box. If you're going to try to pitch something to someone, it would be prudent of you to provide backing to your claims.Thats great for you brother but dont act like the tent is not degrading quicker then a correctly made wooden grow room/box, i have grown in a "proper tent" and while i agree they are sturdy enough for the grow, unless you line with water the mat in the bottom will degrade the walls slowly start to look ratty and you can see the wear and tear, its easy to poke a hole in the tent, you cannot mount a carbon filter or a oscillating fan of any decent size to the wall in whatever position you want unlike a solid grow box or room. they leak more air and can never be fully sealed. less smell proof, ect. less light proof. they are pretty good and 95 percent light proof just i have had leaks and have had to always readjust zip ties and air intake and outtake vents with zip ties.

brother sealed grow rooms can have a AIR INTAKE and a AIR OUTAKE, it means no leaks, or sealed, so all air that goes out, goes directly out of the ducting to where i want to, with no leaks and high efficiency, unlike a grow tent because the material is porous and leaks air, although its not the end of the world, its just not that efficient compared to a sealed room.
Interesting. You were claiming that your grow box is better than a tent, and you were offering to build one of your awesome sealed boxes for another member of this forum, yet you haven't even built and tested a single one yet.
zip9 you are a hopeless mate you have no idea and i dont need to try and explain what i have already explained to you again, i dont need to have built one before, i KNOW, its called engineering, they draw it up and understanding all of the laws of physics it gets made, i dont think you know as much as you think you know, i have nothing to learn i dont think you know who you are speaking to i have most likely been involved with more grows then you, but i dont have to explain that to you as you are the one who is unable to understand, go and re read what i said because you dont understand, watch and learn bud follow my journal you are about to get schooled.
I don't need to follow your beginner's Youtube or social media channels for grow, or any advice, but thanks.
