Hey everyone, I'm trying to figure out what size grow tent to start out with.
The 6 plant maximum is based on the new laws that recently passed in California. Although I have my medical card, I'd rather be on the safe side for the future. More specifically, I'm looking to harvest the equivalent of 2-3oz a month, which is 8-12oz per harvest.
This would be my first grow, so I understand the yield will be lower initially as I learn
From what I've gathered lurking around the forums an ideal tent size should be 3x3, which I'd probably go with a 600watt HID for the lighting.
I definitely want to avoid the future issue of not having enough space. While I've got plenty of space near a window, I don't want to get anything bigger than necessary (holds more than 6 plants). Does a 3x3 tent seem like the ideal size? Also, what about height? It seems like 5ft and 7ft are fairly standard. I believe my ceilings are at least 8ft tall.
Thanks in advance for the advice. Based on that, do you have any favorite tents that are readily available. It seems like I'd want to vent the hot air out an exhaust port through the window.
Cheers.
