I just purchased a dr150 from greners.com.

Got it setup last night, but I haven't installed the fan yet cause im not sure how to mount it. I have a 4in 170 cfm inline fan with carbon filter.
Do I just hang the fan on the cross beams inside the tent?

yes sir. you can also hang filter inside from cross beam and put the fan on top of the tent on the outside pulling it out that way. rep for the size.cant wait to go that big.

I'm in. I have 2 tents.

The first tent is a DR120W with a 600w hps, cool tube and 6" inline fan that I will use for flowering. The other tent is a GrowLab 60 with 200w cfl and a 4" inline fan that I'm using to veg and hopefully keep a mother in.

Great thread! Can't wait to see some setups

My setup:

Lighting: 400W HPS/MH
Fan: 170 CFM inline 4inch w/Carbon Filter 4inch
Grow Style: DWC (Bucket Grow).


I just finished hooking up all the equipment to my tent.

I am in the process of setting up a recirculating system for my DWC so that my rez is outside my grow tent and I can monitor the water levels/ pH / and temps with out opening my grow tent.

So far I only have the control bucket setup. I am waiting on a water pump in the mail then I will setup the recirculating part of it.

This should help keeps the temps in the rez down since inside the tent is warmer then the outside, and as water circulates, it will take the heat with it, and exhaust it from the bucket outside. I intend to install some 12V computer fans into the control bucket to blow air across the top of the water to further help cool it.

So with out going into much more detail, it goes with out saying that my setup still has much room to grow :).

The plant that is in there now is a clone I took from my last grow. The strain is Black-Berry from Nirvana.

I am hoping to get 6 - 7 ounces.
I was able to pull off 7 ounces on the grow that in my signature, and I figure now that I have a damn good growing setup I can get about the same.
Which for me is perfect. Sell off 6 keep an O for me, which will last till next harvest :)


As far as how I vent. I suppose I am still experimenting seeing as this is my first time with a grow tent. Right now I have 1 of the side flaps open, and that seems to be enough for the fan I have.

I actually got a DR80 from greners.com that arrived last week. Easy to set up and working pretty well so far. Got a 400w HPS kit from HTGsupply for the lighting (currently using the metal halide conversion lamp).
