Top products from r/GrowTents

I started describing myself in the "Meet your /r/GrowTents mods!" post (quoted below), so I'll build off that :)

> After moving to a legal state in the Summer/Fall of 2015, /u/Ser_NSFW started growing indoors using SpaceBuckets and enjoyed it so much that grow tents were the next logical step. /u/Ser_NSFW has picked up a ton of helpful information and is usually willing to help out individuals via PM with any marijuana/growing related questions. /u/Ser_NSFW created this sub after finding no other grow tent related subreddits.

I'm low-key and usually good-natured, spending most of my days at home/school and hanging out with roomies. I'm a computer science student and recently applied at a local garden supply store to learn more about gardening and available products, as well as to help others figure out what gear will work best for them, so I'm excited to start working in my new home state! I've made a few casual acquaintances but no real friends yet (apart from roomies, I mean), so my time mostly goes to maintaining my plants and doing productive stuff like cooking pot roasts and batches of chili, or knitting. I play the drums and enjoy the outdoors, and trivia is always a riot after a couple beers :)

I really like the idea of growing all-natural marijuana - that is, healthy soil and plain water, with as little extra nutes as possible - so I'm excited for warmer temps that allow outdoor growing! In the meantime, I'm getting an Apollo grow tent (36"x20"x62") and an LEC light with my tax return. You read that right, "LEC" (Light Emitting Ceramic), apparently it's a new light technology that's equally or more powerful than equivalent HPS lights and generates relatively low amounts of heat, reducing or outright eliminating the need for extra vent fans! I'm excited to give it a shot, since my 132W LED panels have proven to be a tad underpowered when used alone. If all goes well, I'll have a 315W LEC light and two 132W LED lights in a single grow tent, if possible!

I've started using a locally-made soil and nutrient line called Nectar For The Gods that has proven extremely worthwhile, it blows Fox Farms out of the water from what I've seen so far. No major pH issues, no nutrient lockouts/deficiencies (except a tiny bit of what appears to be Magnesium deficiency, which I've been countering with regular nutrients successfully), overall I'm very happy after making the switch. I forgot to mention that while a 12 qt bag of Happy Frog soil costs ~$14 on Amazon, I can get a larger bag (maybe 20 qts, not sure) of Nectar For The Gods soil for the same price, maybe a dollar cheaper!

I'm looking forward to becoming a true grow tent user, and I'm eager to learn and share as much info as I can with the rest of you fine folks!

Any idea of what a half decent extraction system might be? maybe an amazon link if im super duper lucky? I am still in veg so I'm not (yet) too worried about smell, but the temps have been hard to control recently, reaching the upper 80*'s if I leave the vents and mesh windows shut. 3 300w Mars Hydro for lighting.
100×100×180cm (38x39x70in) Tent
Vents: 2 x 3", 4 x 6", 2 x 8"

Should I really drop the $$ for something like this: https://www.amazon.com/iPower-GLFILT4M-Australia-Reversible-Pre-filter/dp/B00DIH7TL0?th=1

With the tents vent sizes, would 4 inch not be an option? looks like my vent sizes jump from 3inch to 6inch? Any ideas or opinions would be great :)

No, it doesn't matter. You can def do better than $159 for a 4" setup though. I think my favorite setup now is the iPower Filter with a Silent Terrabloom Fan. You can actually wedge the fan inside the filter, and they're so light that the straps hold it all up super easy. You'll hardly realize there's a fan at all when it's all set up. To minimize CFM reduction, I cut the duct in half, and create a straight shot out of the tent.

[Most 5x5 tents will fit those requirements] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01DXYM98K/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1521645678&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=5x5+grow+tents&dpPl=1&dpID=41VVedlRdiL&ref=plSrch)

Infinity Fan
I bought this and it’s surprisingly quite. At full speed it’s about as loud a old microwave running.
