Indoor grow tent kits

Don't cheap out.
I haven't used a grow tent but I've seen plenty of issues with them. I'd stick with Gorilla brand or the like just to be sure the zippers are quality. Keep in mind a grow tent will be opened daily so zippers are the weakest link.
I know a girl who grows as cheaply as she can. She's on her 3rd tent in 2 years. Had she bought a decent tent first, she'd have saved money.

I've been using a 4 x 4 Vivosun tent for almost 4 years without any issues. No light leaks and the zipper is still like new. Paid $110 for it. I was so happy with it that when I purchased a 2 x 4 for a veg tent I got another Vivosun. Again, no light leaks or issues with the zipper after years of use.

I don't know anyone that's gone through 3 tents in 2 years myself. Sounds like they are abusing the tent. Many people use the Vivosun or similar budget brands for years without any issues.

Mars Hydro or Vivosun tents. Good without too heavy of a price tag. If Money isn't an issue.. go Gorilla.. but the zippers I hear have woken up the neighbors with how loud they are. Maybe they were just foolin.. who knows?

Some zipper wax goes a long way towards keeping those old tents alive. But yeah, don't go with a kit-research lights, tents, air exchange, etc and then buy the right items for your needs. Kits are overpriced and under-lit in general-you'll end up replacing half of it within the month.

I have vivosun and gorilla.
If you're wanting a complete kit, I'd go Mars Hydro.
The lights aren't the worst, and the tent is 1680d material thickness like Gorilla. Where as vivosun and other brands are 600d thickness.

Gorilla, Mars Hydro, Apollo are all 1680d.
