How much weight can you hang in a Secret Jardin Darkroom II Pro 4x4?

Greetings all:

My first tent, heck my first grow :sad:

My original idea was to bring fresh air in near the bottom and hang the filter horizontally up top and exhaust up top.

But it didn't hit me how much the filter weighed until I picked it up, it's 20 lbs.

I already have a Pro 420 PAR Inda-Gro hanging which is 15 lbs. Plus if the filter is up top then the 6" 400 cfm fan has to be up there too.

Think the Secret Jardin can handle the weight?

I have a 5x5 Secret Jardin, and I have hung between 95-100lbs of weight on it before. As long as you place the poles correctly, and add extra support on the poles by taping the half way point where the two half-poles meet to form one pole, your tent will hold ALOT more weight then mine, because of the less distance the poles have.

Thx, good 2 know.

Gonna try to hang the filter and fan along the back top rail today. Want to keep as much weight as possible near the corner vertical posts.

I have the Inda-Gro hanging from the single cross post that goes across the other 2 cross posts, so it should be O.K..

I'm not sure how reliable the source is, but i've seen a lot of redditors speak positively of Greners... anyways, 5th or 6th comment down I found this response (http://www.greners.com/secret-jardin-dark-room-pro-dr120-ii.html)

""Does it support 6" ducting? -RICK MATTERS
The DR120 II's frame supports 65lbs which is generally more than enough for a light, fan and ducting. The upper ports fit up to 8" ducting. -Greners Staff ""



Also, wondering if anyone could shed some light on whether the 420 PAR could fit into a dr90. I know dimension wise, the light is right at 3 inches too long, but i wonder if the tents side walls would flex enough for it to still fit? Anyone know?
