Which Grow Tent?

I've been researching grow tents for a few days now, and have decided that I'm either going to go with the Home Box, or the Secret Jardin.

Could anyone with experience with either let me know what they think.

I was think the DR80 or the Home Box Original. With either a 350 HPS or a 400, not sure on that either..

I have the growbright HTG tent, and its cheaper and works perfect, no OFFGASSING etc... ive heard homebox has offgassing issues...i could be wrong.

Go with the Jardin, mylar interior. Get the "dark room" not the "street". Running 600 watts in the 150 model with no heat issues and only a hood exhaust and one fan.

I have heard a couple of bad reviews on the cheaper HTG Grow Tents, they seem to be all over ebay. I'm leaning toward the Secret Jardin still....

Anyone else have input?

I have a Secret Jardin DR120 and I'm happy with it. But if I ever buy a new tent, I'm going for
either a GrowLab or one of the newer HydroHuts. Why? Canvas exterior, with stronger stitching.
Don't get me wrong, the Secret Jardin is well made, but the outer skin is so thin that it rips or
is punctured very easily. It seems to be made of a very thin nylon or something. So far it's doing
the job, but I'd much rather have one made of canvas.

Do you know who makes the Grow Lab?
From what I see, it might be HomeBox.

from what i understand the Growlab is made by Homebox which is the company that also makes the Homebox line of tents. They are the same brand but not the same tent.

You are confusing yourself. I read the IcePik123's post, and he plainly tells you that they are two different tents but made by the same manufacturer.
HomeBox and GrowLab are two different tents, with different features, but they are BOTH manufactured by HomeBox.

Cool.. thanks man.. I know I'm confusing my self.. Seriously. I cant make the decision on which one to use. I like the idea of the thicker canvas, but I have not read any reviews on the grow lab. Still seems the Secrect Jardin is getting the most positive feedback.

You're right, the Secret Jardin gets alot of feedback. You won't be disappointed with it, I sure wasn't. But if you want
something a little more durable you might want to consider the GrowLab for the Canvas Exterior. You can't go wrong
no matter which of the two you choose. They are both great tents, so look at them and decide which one has the features
you like most, and go for it.
Just know that the Secret Jarden IS more prone to ripping or having pinholes in it. It's still very well made.
No matter which tent you go with between the two, you will not be disappointed.

If you buy your Secret Jardin from these guys, they'll pay to have it returned if there's a problem. I order from them
all the time, and they have the best customer service.

i run a jardin120 and a 60 flower and mom.
I love my 120, I have a portable ac unit, 400 watt hps fans etc .. all in the moddle of my yard in shed. It is the perfect climate control. I would highly recomend it but -- I agree the stitching could be stronger, but its nothing a little duct tape doesnt cover.

it is well insulated.. the inside of my shed was 115 degrees from the sun, the 120 with the portable ac unit (venting out) was a cool steady 75 degrees jsut as i set it.
