Hello everyone!
I've just entered this world of marijuana. I have really been enjoying smoking it to help decrease my anxiety and turn down the thoughts in the old brain box. I'm a real DIY'er so logically the next set would be to try my hand at growing. Now I don't have too much space and also have a family so just wondering best options... I have been checking out a lot of info online it's hard to know what to do.
My head is spinning a little bit.
I've been checking out these grow tent reviews ---> https://blissedoutbuds.com/best-grow-tent-for-marijuana/ ---> and was thinking about going with the Zazzy Grow Tent. It seems like it has all the right things I need and a good value.

HELP! any insight into what grow tent works the best would be great.

Thanks!!

They all do the same thing. Some will tell you to spend 3X as much on a different brand because you can supposedly do pullups on the frame but since nobody's going to do that it doesn't matter.

I've been using an inexpensive tent for years. It does what I need it to do. One thing about that Zazzy is I don't like how the door opens up like it does.



I have one of these Vivosun's

All depends on size/space that you want to go, how many plants , style if growing...lights you intend to use? Etc

I have a 4x2 Oputent and a 2x2 CoolGrows tent. Both were cheap. I would def recommend the CoolGrows brand. The zipper flap and design in general wont tear as easily, and it’s a little nicer than the Oputent which is basically the same as the Vivosun tents.

It does matter for some people as these bar fixtures are getting up in the 50 lb range.

i have both a vivosun and an iPower. I prefer the iPower. Both about the same price, but iPower seems to Have a Better zipper and the mylar seems to be more sturdy over the vivosun

Yes but most people hang more then just there light in a tent. It adds up and the more weight you put on the vivosun the more it shakes. Vivosun is rated for like 120-130 lbs iirc you would be crazy to hang that much off it tho and one touch on the side in the wrong way it would start folding i'm almost 100% sure by the sway i see in mine with not even close to that much weight.

So Gorilla brand being the big name/well known one with a reputation for quality. That's what I've ran myself and I'm satisfied but price wasn't the biggest factor for me fortunately.

Rather, what you want to look at is durability and usability like others have hinted at here. The Gorilla's are known for their 1680d fabric which is thick stuff - but now there are other competitors with the same. Also the metal frames -and- corner pieces were their other claim to fame. Again I think the other vendors have came to market with similar.

If money is tight, look for something equivalent - 1680d all metal frame with good zippers and openings/ports that are a good configuration for your setup. If you just want to get the best and not think about it later - drop the dough to get the brand that's established themselves as a leader (or better marketers at least).

I've been researching all the grow tent options as well, and both Zazzy and Vivosun are popular choices at the cheaper end of the spectrum. They are almost as good as the expensive options in most ways, except, Gorilla tents can absolutely hold more weight, as can a few other higher end tents. You will need to inspect any tent you get for light leaks, but the cheaper tents are more likely to have them. You would do well with a zazzy tent-most people here will say to get a cheaper tent and spend what you save on a better light, which is smart-a better light will grow better buds in a cheap tent. That said, my buddy has a Covert tent and I LOVE it, I would get that tent in a second except the one I want is 84 inches high, and apparently I have low hobbit ceilings.

Cool grow tents are terrible, zippers bust fabric is thin and full of light leaks might be okay for a veg tent but not to flower in, I prefer secret jardin brand. You get what you pay for I will be tearing down my cool grow tent and replacing it with more secret jardin tents I currently have a 3x4 coolgrow tent and a 3x3 secret jardin I honestly feel like I threw money away with the purchase of the cool grows tent.

You better also check GroWace, they have different brands than those appearing on Amazon and very high quality and cheap grow tents. If you don't want to go wrong, I definitely recommend Gorilla tents, but the alternatives are very good.
