I got one like this(for clothes though lol)

After i bought it i was looking at how perfect it would be for a couple plants at one time with the ability to grow them Higher than the standard stealth cab.

My next upgrade is definately going to be a seperate room for the grow. I don't think I've had a decent night's sleep since I put my tent together. I have 9 fans running at the moment. 1 AC, 2 exhaust, 2 intake, 2 Circulation, 2 Clip fans. Almost all are running constantly. You have to talk like your in a club in there. I sleep next to my bitches. I'm so dedicated.

EDIT: I might as well just move a sleeping bag into the tent and get it over with. The snoring would provide free C02.

Yeah mylar or poly. either one will be your light proofing.

It's all in how you put it together. If it's properly made you can leave it in your room or where ever you want to. lol
But remember it's not smell proof like a tent would be. but cost wise it's worth it.
I called walmarts customer service line to find out the weight limit of the hanging bar "For my heavy clothes, I don't want the bar to fall down" lol
it can hold up to 50lbs. "according to their records"



ANYWAYS, i have to head out for a bit. I'll be back

plants are gonna get big ..........gonna topdress those pots before flower?

They shouldn't get THAT big...still only 10 inches tall, even with the stretch I'm expecting to manage height relatively well.
I didn't topdress them (don't yell at me) I flipped them this morning...lights come on at 7:15 this evening. My next grow I'm going to try all organic...gotta read up on it some more...

i dunno.........the one looks like its gonna be a monster.......

whats wrong w the way your growing now?......... its organic enough and you seem to be doing a fine job.......i just think a little more lime a little guano and a cup of compost would go along way

if youre talking all organic..... like a water only soil you need to read fast and get your soil started asap

Well maybe not then!! :lol: I'm ordering seeds this time...soon as I get them I'm starting them.

Which one do you think is gonna be a monster? The one I topped so many times? I'm still not seeing any preflowers on the triploid, it might be a male?!?! I'm watching close...

I won't be in the vicinity of the hydro store till Saturday...I'll prob pick up some compost and guarno then. I need to mix up some more soil anyway...I used it all up when I transplanted.

youre gonna need an air cooled hood for a closet...... those are the ones w a hole for ducting on each side and glass on the bottom.......they stop the heat from escaping into the grow area

a magnetic ballast rather than digital......... people might hate me for it but watever.......theyre more dependable and dont really use that much more power......i think i heard its six percent more on 110 but i dont really know .... im not an electrician i just know they last .......but theyre heavy and put off a bunch of heat

should probably be fan shopping first....... the ac hood is gonna be a little pricey by itself you should ask about scratch and dent models at the hydro shop if price is a problem .....

250w-400w all in one units have a special adapter for aircooling using just a booster fan. this will be a little cheaper for you to get. this way you are not buying bulb ballast hood fans blah blah blah blah..

neither come with bulbs. you can find everything here online or in grow shops.

Hydrofarm Sunburst 250w $140 (Don't know why it's more money but it is.)
Hydrofarm Sunburst 400w $125

attachable adapter for cooling Sunburst units $9
booster $25

16.5' flex 4" pipe. $20.

Did that help? lol
