About to pull my hair out...

[Discordantmindfck]

So i've been glueing my eyes to these forums for multiple weeks now and trying to get ready to start my first grow... Room Design, Ventilation, Lighting all of the difficult stuff... id like to have 2-3 plants going at a time as i'm only looking to grow for personal use.

I'm trying to keep things simple yet nice and i was wondering what everyone's opinions on grow tents are.

i guess the main question i have and its probably something you will get a chuckle out of but can you do soil in a grow tent cause i had a friend that produced a very nice batch of Sour D in a hydro setup in a Hydrotent (i think thats the brand) and he said you can only do hydroponics in a grow tent. Is his information wrong?

grow tents are good if you dont wana build something because you can always build something and save money but if uyou have money get one a and a 600 watt with cfls in needed and two fans

i suggest you keep reading and start small and simple.

read through this thread, it's entertaining, but it shows how little a grower can get by with. start by setting up your own small shoestring setup then you can go from there. see what you would like to add or take away.

maybe start out growing organic, and cloning with a bubbleponic. that way you can get a taste for both methods. I feel like I always get a better well rounded experience when I start something new in this way.

You dotn need to grow hydro in a grow tent, you can grow in soil IN a grow tent.

"spending money" does not equal "do it right."

i say, do it the ghetto way. work your way to the top so to say

I would say read through it, it's not like you *have* to do anything or everything you read there. You might get 'inspired' like we did scrolling through here. We had come to a dead end on how to vent the room without 1) making it freezing cold in there, and 2) light leaks. But dicking around on here gave us ideas, and now we're 4 weeks from harvest and the vent system is just dandy. Is it "ghetto" per se? Kinda, since we had to jury-rig it and it's ugly. But it does the trick.

Whatever works for YOU is what's right!
