Upgrading the box

Hey guys. So I'm coming somewhat close to finishing my frist grow, and I kind of want to start preparing/buying a few things for my next one. The one thing I've realised is I do need more space. Even if I did end up having more then one female I would not have been able to keep them both going. So first I'm looking at grow tents. Theres a lot out there for under 100 dollars and I would get quite a big size improvement. So my question, does the company matter for the grow tent, or are they all ok? APlusChoice on Ebay has a lot of cheap nice size ones.

Thanks

why not build your own box? bigger. i did my box a 4x8x4 for $60 using 1/2 plywood an 2x4s (def over kill). how many plants you thinking on doing? is that your only uprgrade your looking into? sorry i never used a tent so i dont have info on them. sorry

I'm not that handy. This box was not completely light sealed, half the time I have to put a cover over it just to be safe. Ideally I'd want 4 plants of the size in my grow now. I mean building a square box is easy, but vent holes, and mounting the light and painting etc. A tent I think just looks a bit nicer too.

Some of those tenets are giving people problems with giving off gasses that are disrupting the plants. Seems to me I read that here somewhere. You may want to do some research on that. I agree a home made box is a better choice.

Interestingg... Thanks for that Tommy imma look into that

I too was looking at a tent to increase size. As tommy stated there have been issues with some tents on the market. It seems to me that the tents that are lined with the white PVC plastic are the ones to be worried about. From what i understand not all of the tents let off the gases but I've seen some experienced growers have issues due to these tents which has led me away from this idea. I'm no expert but i would suggest the mylar lined tents if you do choose one, from the research i did they seemed to be the best for quality and results. My other issue with the tents is I find them to be over priced, with propper planning and a decent blueprint of what you want you could build something custom and predrill any vents ect. prior to assembly.
