Do y'all think this grow tent will work?

I just got one of those. Haven't opened it yet because it will be for my new place. But I do own the 4x4 Agromax and I really like them. I also have some cheaper tents but the Agromax is definitely the way to go. The floor is actually water proof, the liner is actually water proof, you get access from 3 sides if you have a 4x4 or bigger, The corners and all metal (most companies use plastic corners), and the poles are a lot bigger and stronger. I kind of wish I wasn't so cheap when i got my two 20x36" tents.

You'll need to get a fan, ducting, and a carbon filter most likely. The initial investment is always more than most people think but its worth it in the end to have clean medication that you know is 100% legit. You'll also need nutes and decide what type of soil/grow medium you're going to use.

For that size tent you can do 2 bigger plants or a max of 8 plants in 2 gallon felt grow bags. I have a tent that same size maxed with 8 mothers but I am constantly trimming them back. They'll last about 6-9 months before they are completely root bound.

I agree with Chronikool that the one you ordered isn't much good. I think that you would do better spending your $100 on good fluorescent lighting or a small HID vice super cheap led.

You could mix in some LED bulbs in the grow. Petflora has played around quite a bit with LED bulbs...maybe look at some of his threads/ask him what he uses.
