The HomeBox XL/XXL - Portable Grow Tents

[Big Bud Bear]

What do you guys think of these.

One of my friends who grows has the XXL. He bought a seconded *defect* though the only issue was the inside was not as white, but it was not a problem..

I love his set up and think the thing is great. I plan on buying either a seconded XL or XXL

go with the dark rooms....

not sure what you mean?

 

[Big Bud Bear]

never mind, i found them on ebay. why do you suggest them over the home box>?

 

[Big Bud Bear]

I am stuck between this one


HOMEBOX XL 47"x47"x78 @ $250 shipped, or much cheaper if i can find a seconded one

or

Hydropnics Dark Grow Tent House 48'' X 48'' X 80'' Room $189.99 shipped

That is a $70 price differance, are you telling me the cheaper and bigger one is better?

I like them because they have the side doors that makes for very easy to get around the tent......Also my friend has the homebox and the top rails that hold the light is a lot weaker than the dark room.....

The Dark Room is available in the following sizes :
DR40: 1'4" wide x 1'4" deep x 3'11" tall
DR80: 2'8" wide x 2'8" deep x 5'3" tall
DR120: 3'11" wide x 3'11" deep x 6'7" tall
DR150W: 2'8" wide x 4'11" deep x 6'7" tall
DR150: 4'11" wide x 4'11" deep x 6'7" tall
DR240W: 3'11" wide x 7'10" deep x 6'7" tall
DR240: 7'10"" wide x 7'10" deep x 6'7" tall
DR300w: 9'10" wide x 4'11" deep x 6'7" tall
DR300: 9'10" wide x 9'10" deep x 6'7" tall

....They're also a little bigger so if you want to put a tray in it they fit with a little extra room, and or you dont have to down grade to a smaller tray......

I use a Homebox since five years back for my motherplants only and I'm quite happy with it. No quality issues. Then again, I don't run HID lights in it, just neons, the framework's built to take the weight of extraction though.

One day I'll try a Yurt, these tents seem great for growing!

I wonder if you can get some cheap Mongolian labor to go with the tent? I'm fed up with watering and pruning...

i'd love to live in a yurt up in the cold mountains with a fire in the center
