Hello all 
Here is some results of my DR100L at 38 day of 12/12.. Love these tents! I have heat issues because of my local but 4" Vortex with phresh filter exhaust, seperate 6" Vortex to a/c hood and I have a 5000 btu a/c ducted straight into the bottom vent via 6" insulated ducting. I lose negative air pressure but after this run I will have a more suitable local so hopefully the heat issues will be gone.

Hey Jack Dupp, nice album of the DR120. The pic in the thread will not go full size for some reason.
I'm planning a three-plant sativa dom grow in my DR120. I expect to use a watering wand from the front when things get big and (hopefully) dense.
Edit: Lighting will be a pair of Lumigrow ES 330W LEDs with six or eight 6500K 42W CFLs at the edges.
Seems like 2700K would be more appropriate for flowering but SOTF420 has good results using 6500K supplementing his Lumigrow light. I've read the 2700K run warmer than 6500K.

Thanks Sanjuan ~ I can't figure out why it won't go full size either. I'm new at posting pics.
Good luck on your 3 plant grow. Are you planning on running a 600w as well? Hopefully you will be able to blow those plants up in there. As soon as I get more clones, I will veg. longer and transplant to bigger pots before I flower them.
I am really enjoying the grow tents. Simple and clean. Why didn't I do this sooner?

Hello all!!!
So I've finally broken down and bought a small dr40 that should be here tomorrow for my seedling/mom ....and some veg area...
After thinking about it for some time, I think I will go an order another new tent in the near future for my flowering chamber.
The current one I have now is a 4x4 tent I got off ebay last year, and it's like 6 and a half feet tall.... It's just too big for my 400 watt CMH, and I'm losing precious lumens to the sidewalls I'm thinking.
Not only is it too big, but I'm wasting space with the oscilating fan and carbon filter sitting on the floor of the tent, which is just how it is right now. Adding a clip fan to oscilate and the carbon filter up on straps out of the way will help a lot!
So for my next crop I want to change things up because upgrading light is just not an option. I'm down to throw a couple hundred more bucks on a new tent, then either save or sell my 4x4.
So I figure, these secret jardins sure are handy, and I see a lot of you using various sizes with various size lamps, so here's my scenerio on my next purchase......
I run a 400 watt CMH in a non cooled hood....odor, hear, or humidity has never been a problem, So i'm not really wanting to change anything around other then the tent itself.
So for my veg/mom area:
DR40 with a small insline fan hooked up to a spare carbon filter. (I will use this as my drying chamber one time in my upcoming harvest.)
Flowering:
DR100 (I think I'll choose this because it is what is recommended on the site. It's 3x3 and like 6 foot tall)
Or
DR80?
What do you all think?
Can't wait to improve on the already steller results I'm having:

Hey IC,
Haven't posted here in quite some time. So I thought I would stop in see what's going on. Glad to see this thread still going. Got quite a few nice grows/pics in here. Keep up the good work all.
I also thought I would share what I have going on right now. So here are a few pics.

DR60 - 250w plantastar - Biobizz all-mix compost - biogrow - biobloom - topmax
4 Big buddha blue cheese
Final result 118g
I am very happy with that... the buzz is quite strong (not the strongest) smell and taste are getting better every day.
After manicuring I collected all trimming and made cannabutter, and cannabrownie witth that.. very strong!
the scissor hash was brilliant too
Take care and keep it up!
cheers

i'm getting into the club i'm expecting my grow setup to arrived in this week.
my setup:
DR40 tent (i grow AF strains)
125W CFL BLOOM with aluminum reflector
180m3/h exhaust set with AC (smallest i find, will take some space still)
insulated hose
4x 7L square pots (20cm x 20cm, so i can fit hopefully all of them with little fighting.)
cost me 260€ (shipping included) overall.
Handful ammount of Lr2 seeds + Lr2 x OR (OR = "ovela ratsastaja" in finnish, in english "cunning/sneaky rider", it's a hintch bigger than Lr2 and grows extremely well without maintenance, you can piss on it and it will take it lol). no need for ferti.
