Does anyone veg use 7200k Metal Halide? Are they any better for veg than the 6500k? Just wondering if there are any benefits to the higher kelvin rating. I can't find too much user info on the web, besides a few people suggesting to use them as finishing bulbs. How do they work for veg compared...

The idea is not so much penetration into the canopy but more of changing the overall light spectrum that is being cast down and around the tent, bouncing off of the walls and hitting the top of the canopy. By hanging them at the same height, or about 1/3 down from it, the 2 spectrums overlap. I...

I'm going to see what they have in stock locally and just grab a 50 pint, if I have to I will run a 12 gauge cord and draw some wattage from another outlet on a different circuit.

I'll probably go with the 50 to be safe. Do you know how many watts one of those pulls from the wall? Thanks

I have been looking at a few of them @ Walmart for arounf $200-$250

I normally flower 2 plants at a time. I recently downsized the flowering tent to a 2x4x6.5 The room that the tent is in is 10x13. I am planning on keeping the dehumidfier outside of the tent and try to dry the air that is being drawn into the tent during late flower and during the slow dry...

Yeah, as long as the ambient temps in the room the tent is in stay around 70-75 my 2x2 doesn't get past 83 degrees using just the passive exhausting for airflow. I'm currently vegging some seedlings under a little 250 watt metal halide system along with four 40 watt supplemental cfls making the...

Anyone have any thoughts? I thinking of purchasing one this week, while I have some extra $$

How is heat in there with that light? Do they come in different kelvin spectrums? like around 6500k and the lower 2100k range? Thanks

Thanks for responding, I did have the 4x4 tent for a few runs and just don't have the room for it anymore. I now only grow 1-2 plants at any given time for personal use and hash making. I mainly need something that doesn't produce a lot of heat. It would be nice to not have to use the air...

Speaking of LED's, I am considering giving them a try but don't know where to start. I would like to find something for a 2x4x6.5 size tent. Any thoughts on what wattage I should shoot for in for that area? I don't have that big of a budget but would like to get something decent. Any brands or...

yeah, those LED's are nice and easy to work with.

I have to agree that the supplemental lighting should be more towards the top of the plants, overlapping with the other lights helping to deepen the spectrum and intensifying the overhead lights. I find that low side lighting seems to grow insignificant little off-shoots in the center of the...

I am using a 250 watt 6000k metal halide in a 2x2 tent for some seedlings and plan on vegging them in there until it's time to flip em. I am using two 23 watt 6500k cfl's on Y splitters on each side of the metal halide reflector, adding approx. 100 more watts (92 watts) Doesn't it make more...

Do those Old World Blueberry x Flo mixes from JBC come in the original breeders packs? Also how are they? Anyone growing any at the moment?

I went to one of those sites that were suggested and my internet security detected and blocked a javascript virus on that site, I don't remember which one it was cuz I got right out of it once it was detected, just a heads up!

I had the low ceilings when I first started using the tents, I'm glad you found one that works for you.

I will check them out, thanks!

About 10 years ago Secret Jardin tents were pretty much top of the line, before Gorilla came out with their Heavy Duty models. My first tent was a Secret Jardin 2x2x5, that cost $125. I still use that tent to this day for starting seedlings and early veg. It has plastic corners but it is still a...

I just got a 2'x4'x79" from Hydrobuilder.com the brand name is Covert, it is taller than most of 2'x4' tents available, it came to $150. all in with the 5% discount from their site. It is a very decent tent. The only taller one would be the Gorilla, which I almost got but it was $85 bucks more.
