Grow Room/Tent Advice. ASAP!

So I started out with some seeds and had my space in the closet. I thought, thought, and thought... I realised I shouldn't be using just the closet when I have the whole room. I browsed the web. I found this guy on youtube.com who made a home made grow tent in a grow in a room. He said this let him control more, hard to believe, like it made much of a difference, but I don't know. It seemed like a solid set up. I thought this seemed like a good idea. Probably easier to hide a little bit, considering I live in an apartment. So I went and looked at the local store. I found some PVC pipe, which the man on youtube.com used. I was suprised that I could probably purchase all the PVC for $25.00. I thought about this and it seemed like a solid plan, except I don't have a clue on what to put over the PVC pipe? The wall? He never said what he used for the walls. I thought about tarp, but not big enough for my 6x6x6 PVC idea. Now I am starting to realise it would be hard to do, considering the local store that carrys the PVC pipe is for plumbing and doesn't really have the connectors to hold my idea together, so I would have to find another way to hold the pipe together. Now I realise maybe the tent is a hassle, maybe just using the room would be alright. I am just looking to be able to grow more then a closet full, but don't know how I should set up my grow space. Any advice would be great.
THANKS.

Can it be bought at a local store?
maybe at a fabric store... they might know it as a "blackout" fabric. it is also called panda film. please keep us posted with how your DIY tent turns out because i will be doing the same thing in the next week or two. i thought about using pvc, but i may end up using 2x2s... i'm not sure yet, but for $25 for a 6x6x6 cage is a good price! make sure you dont skimp out on the way your light will hang! good luck :joint::mrgreen:
