I'm making a homemade tent type thing to keep a mother in. I've got the frame built so far. I'm looking for opinions what what to use for the "tent" sides material. Anyone have any suggestions on which way i should go from from here.

I'm going to get another 3 side connector piece i think to run a 3rd bar across the top to have the cfl's from.

This is still a work in progress. Anyone have any ideas from what I have so far?

I would personally use a 5 gallon bucket and stand height of your makeshift tent upwards of 5 to 6 feet. This allows Mom to have plenty of branching and bounce back quicker when you harvest clones from her on a regular basis. At some point you will probably decide to flower her when you take a clone or 2 of hers to be your new Mom. I was thinking about running a similar setup as you posted on here with Mylar film wrapped around it I'm leaning more toward a smaller tent that will be about 2'x2'x4.5' to veg my Mom out. That will allow me to run a 250w MH or HPS to produce more optimum growth. Just a few of my brainstorming ideas and I hope it helps you out somewhat.

I can't tell what size that is but, I have a 2x2x4 that is made of 1x3 wood and covered with panda film. I use hook and loop to close the opening with about a 9" overlap of the flaps. Works well for me but, your results may vary. This method is very light and cost effective.
