how tall are these 4x4 tents/rooms? just wondering cause i was thinking about setting a small room up and saw a 100 watter for cheap but thot that i may not have enuff space above my plants. so i guess my question is wats the minimum ht. requirement for a 1000 watt hps to be above the plant canopy?

I am using the one from secret jardin, the dark room 120, and its a lil over 6.5' tall. I dont veg mine long, so heighth isnt really an issue for me. I never open the bottom vents either. Im too lazy to go open and close them at lights on and off, and I dont want light leaking in from there. I just use a little inline fan at the bottom to bring in some fresh air, and i have some ducting hooked up to it as well, to make sure light isnt getting in from there. Its completely dark in the room at lights off, as I have went in the tent and closed it off to see how much light was getting in, and I couldnt even see my hand 2 inches in front of my face. The only time I really have to do anything is at watering time. Other than that, its set it and forget it.
