Hey hey! ok
I'm currently 2 weeks into flowering my lady in a
Dr60 and she has nearly filled it out width ways and height!!! Bit concerned if gets any taller she is about 6" away from 250w hps!
Because of this been thinking about next grow and next tent upgrade, was thinking of this one, any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Looks good to me. It doesnt specify which bukbs and ballast they are which is very important, but that Bio-bizz is good organic stuff. That would not be a bad buy

Thanks for the reply hoagtech! do u think my lady is to close to the light?

well since your knockin tents, ill knock ALL tents.. why would you put a box in your grow area? why no just use the whole thing? mylar.. panda.. get it now!

The kit seems overpriced for what it is, as there are things you don't need, or could do better if you shop around. However, it will do the job. I'd advise buying everything individually, then you can get better stuff, and not bother with the useless bits.

Biobizz are ok nutes, but you really only need the grow and bloom. Personally, I prefer the Plant Magic OT Organic range, having switched from biobizz.

Forget the clay pebbles.

Get a parabolic reflector rather than the Euro.

Rhino filter, not a crappy budget one

You could save some money by getting a plug and grow timer, rather than the timer/contactor set.

the point of being too close is when it gets burnt by it. The best way to get your plant closer to your light is by putting a fan as close as you can to your bulb. I don't know what a system air liter fan is. But if your using a euro reflector which I assume is a wing reflector then I would put your oscillating fan on a pedestal or stand pointed directly at your bulb so you can take the heat away from the bulb source so it doesn't build up.

If your bulb was cooled than 6" would be fine

Just noticed since hoagtech mentioned it that there is no oscillating fan in that list. Tower fans work great in tents, and clip-on fans are very useful to save some floor space and get some extra air movement at canopy/bulb level

I use an 80cm sunking parabolic reflector with a vertical bulb in my dr90. The vertical bulb means you can get your plants nice and close, since the heat is emitted sideways rather than downwards, and there is plenty of room for air to rise around the bulb fitting.

Right I think I'm gunna get the bits separately! My lady is amnesia lemon
And is out growing the Dr60!! So gunna get the Dr90 tent for now and
Move her and everything else into it! She should be ok in ther with the 250w hps?
Also be back later with a new list for the next grow! See what you guys think!

Youre gonna have to keep that light super close even in the 90 instead of the 60. I found a 600w HPS was just about enough for the 90.

Ok Harrekin sounds like good advice! my only concern with a 600W hps would be heat as next grow Would be over summer.
