Looking for a recommendation for a full growing kit for 2-3 plants. Looking to buy in a bundle and not individual pieces so i don't have to worry about forgetting anything or anything not being compatible.
cheers

EDIT: cheap and low end is fine, this is more of a first time hobby more than anything

Carbon filter 4 inch amazon

Spider farmer quantum boards 120w x 2 lights

Why not contact Mars Hydro Factory here on the forum and ask. I’m sure they can set you up with a good package. There products are priced very well.

Get a gorilla grow tent. :) They do all different sizes so it's totally your choice on how big you want it to be?

Vivosun 600 watt HPS/MH with sealed hood $159. Best bang for your buck as far as lighting is concerned. You can easily pull a pound in a 4 x 4 tent with that light.

Since you already had a list with everything I just used yours and modified it. Only difference is I bumped up the fan and switched the light. It's also the setup I use minus the oscillating fan. I don't have an oscillating fan. The passive air intake creates plenty of airflow.

4x4 vivosun tent $160 amazon $105 Amazon

Ac infinity exhaust fan 4 inch $ 119.00 amazon HYDROFARM ACTIVE Air 6" fan + speed controller $99

Carbon filter 4 inch amazon Vivosun 6" Carbon filter $50

Spider farmer quantum boards 120w x 2 lights
$150 each . Amazon
Vivosun 600 watt HPS/MH Air Cooled Reflector $159 Includes dimmable ballast, hood, MH and HPS bulbs, timer, and 2 ratcheting rope hangers.

Ducting for exhaust $25

Oscillating fan $25

Temp sensor $15

While those Gorilla tents are probably the best constructed tent on the market they are pretty damn expensive when you can get the same size tent for half the price. Most of us don't need to do pull ups in our tent. I paid $100 for the tent I have and years later it's just like it was the day I bought it. All I needed was an enclosed 4 x 4 space in my garage. The Gorilla is more than twice what I paid.

Just bought a mars hydro tent that is perfect and the 4x4 was $139. Kind of in between the gorilla tent and a cheap one.

This tent is sealed way tighter then my last tent. It’s not letting out any smell.

Look for package deals on eBay.
