Hey sammet nice looking grow. I have been looking for a small tent like the one you have (the grow tent that is) what are the dimensions, where did you pick it up at and how much was it? Keep growing great meds bro.

Hey all - cheers for the kudos.


A few asked for tent dimensions

Budbox small - 75cm x 75cm x 100cm (approx cost $120)

Budbox XL - 120cm x 120cm x 200cm (approx cost $220)

Dark Room Street DRS80 - 80cm x 80cm x 160cm (approx cost $100)

For those asking about the Dark Room Street - it's very budget. It's lightproof as much as the budboxes (has some small pinprick light leaks around the zip stitching in a few random places, but all my tents have this and I don't see it as a problem at all - but then my tents are kept in a room with no windows and light leaks aren't a problem in general).

The budboxes feel like proper canvas with nice shiney white wipe-clean (must remember to clean :D) surface on the inside. The Dark Room Street has a silver finish but it's not as reflective, also the material is some sort of nylon polyester (kind of feels like a proper tent that'd you'd go camping in). Overall I got the Dark Room as it was cheap and I had the other stuff sitting around - it doesn't seem too durable either, but it fits my needs fine. Anyone looking to get a tent, I'd recommend the Budboxes or Homeboxes over the Dark Room tents but they each have their own pros and cons and differing setups of vents.

OdorSok- was pretty crap, might be suitable for a small grow but otherwise it doesn't work too well. At the moment I'm not running any odour control at all - I vent out into my attic and smell is not a problem.

Damn that is mighty fine and very sweet looking...I am now quite inspired to do better. Are you a neat freak or what? Everything is so perfect. Thanks for the great pictures!

haha neat freak - not especially. The only place I can grow is a spare room in my basement that doesn't get used - however I can't alter the room at all (even the horrible green/red paint scheme lol) and I'm shite at making my own cabinets so tents are the way forwards - not so cost effective but they keep things easily compartmentalised :joint:

Had my first grow in a tent. Used the Dark Room (not street edition) and loved it. Only prob was the temp a little bit as I had a 600 watt in there in such a small harder to vent place. Good luck and I'll be following this one.

Budbox Small Veg

Here's the Strawberry Cough - it was from a femmed pack that I bought about 3 years ago - hope she's as good as I remember.

5 BB Cheese - non-femmed. A lot of variation from these as you can see in the photo.

Dark Room Street 80 Veg

5 Barney's Farm Sweet Tooth - feminised seeds. These girls look great, all similar size, shape and colour. Last ones I grew out were stout Indicas that benefit from lots of veg. AK48 mum in the corner.

AK48 - looks like I should get 5 little colas. Stretch!

DSD - She's very bushy - wonder how she'll bud up, should be good :D

I'm loving the growing at the moment, it's great to have the garden up and running. Can't wait to have some smokeables again - I've been using something called Zopiclone recently and it's not a patch on good pot for helping me sleep (odd metallic after-taste side effect too).

Another update next week :wave: (Football tomorrow :woohoo: cmon Liverpool.)

Looking real good. Those square pots really make a big differences when space is a concern. I mean this in a constructive criticism kind of way... you should find a way to lower your temp just a bit. Peace.

Canopy temps in all my tents are between 70-75F according to my infra-red thermometer. No need to worry :joint:
