Hmm closest I can find to those dimensions would be the mother keeper tent on htgsupply, the 4x2x5 from gotham, and the secret jardin dr120w. Of those the gotham tent seems to be the best option, it's $25 less than the htg one and the same dimensions as the secret jardin ($50 more).

@cannawizard - How much coverage would you say a single H350 is good for on its own? Also how high would you recommend to hang one over a plant? I'm debating getting one or two to add to my current LEDs.

I'll look for some more growers using them so you can get some first person responses about them. They look to be good quality to me though.

I wasn't trying to say anything bad about gotham, a friend of mine uses a blackstar and loves it. I was just pointing out that it's under $150 for a nicer one haha.

Yeah I don't particularly trust that, the company also sells cat supplies and battery chargers. The only other grow item they offer is a ripoff led light. A cheaper tent that seems really good is the line of them offered by gotham hydro. Only issue I had with them was the vertical space, I...

Yeah from the way I understand it a 3' plant will be properly lit if using 3w diodes driven to at least 1.5w each and either a mix of lenses or 90 degree lenses. I'll peruse your journal but that should be fine and the plants in your avatar look very healthy so probably nothing to worry about...

That's what I'm thinking. My last cab had a kickplate along the bottom edge so I took that off and put a drawer lock up from there. Looked normal enough from the front without sacrificing too much security.

Not to rain on your parade but wouldn't it make more sense to make it as stealth as possible? If someone sees it locked they may take the whole thing just based on the assumption there's something valuable in it?

Yup, haight uses 6w diodes, very wide angle though so penetration isn't too great on their 90w and older 180w. Their new 180w looks cool though, uses 3w reds with a narrower beam to focus more on flowering.

I got the Secret Jardin DR120 II off greners.com. It's expensive compared to some of the others I was looking at but from what I've seen people are happy with it and it's made of a thicker material than most so it should last a while. I anticipate that I'll be using it for several years to grow...

Hmm, wonder if more companies will start adding that option in the future? Seems like it could be a nice way to save some extra money on electric in bigger grows. I got my tent setup today and I was not expecting it to be this big inside. The thing is freaking huge! Once the light gets here I'm...

That's awesome! What's your price per kwh? My 90w alone is $8 a month on 18/6. I really the structure of that caramel, even your smallest doesn't look bad by any means.

Yup, from now on my goal is to spend less than $5 a plant from seed to harvest (not counting electric cost). I've got enough nutes to last for years, don't need any more pots, and I just use a peat moss/perlite mix so it's pretty cheap. How much is your elec bill for the grow each month?

Damn, I feel like a retard now haha. I never would've thought of that, I'll get some up that way this weekend. Thanks man!

Haight only does a 1 yr mfg warranty but I haven't read of any units failing and they started in '09 so I'm not too worried. The design is really simple so there isn't too much that could go wrong.

Yeah, I've got a GLH light on the way to use from now on. That isn't to say the haight light is bad, just not the best around. The completely passive cooling and wide angle lenses seem to be its biggest advantages. I still want to find a place for it in my garden to see what it is capable of now...

Only three? I'm thinking at least 5 years, by then the cost hopefully will be down to around half what it is now.

@hoss - Hey the old fluoro tubes still have their uses, a single T8 is enough to start seeds and root clones. I'm not meaning to shit on HTG at all, some of the stuff I've gotten from them was spot on, I just won't be going generic for any grow essentials from now on. Haha I just added up how...

Sounds like I know what I'll be getting myself for x-mas now. Going back to things we've bought that we shouldn't have, at least you ended up with a few cool looking lights to play around with. I ordered this http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-A-GrowBright-4in-Inline-Fan-&-Carbon-Filter-Combo.asp...

I agree with puff. I helped a friend put up mylar for his grow before and pins in the wall are much easier, especially in corners. I finally just got around to ordering a tent last week myself, I feel like it's one of the best investments I've made for growing (several less genius purchases...
