I bet every grower with a couple of grows under his or her belt already knows this to be true.... I just finished 8 beers replacing all the duct tape from my little garden... That's about 2 1/2 hour's.. All the duct tape I had originally used to seal up everything that needed to be sealed.. FUCK!! I should of listened to some dude on some grow video that already told me not to use duct tape exactly for those reasons... why I as a new grower did not listen to his experience I do not know but I should of.. All the shit I was warned about happen.. Duct tape really does not do well in that type of environment. It is a monster pain in the ass to clean all that glue off of everything... I won't do it ever again...
So what Kind of tape did I use? I used paper foil tape.. That shit is great.. Clean and easy to install.. Also not very expensive. PEACE

Dude I shit you not,,, That is exactly the brand I just finished removing.. I can tell you that shit is strong as hell, but when it warms up in there and temps reach 82 degrees and humidity is at 30% it starts to get soft in places and slips... PEACE

thats the exact same tape i just used today, though i will see what happens, i have an air cooled hood so i dont expect temps to get out of control..

i used gorrilla for two harvest's shit geth hot and doesn't stay for too long. I'm stickin with no duct at all. i got all the clamps i need . No more rigging shit. I use a stasple gun to hang my reflective material and or push pins. Duct tape does suck your right there. So time consuming too.
