    best way to hang grow lights

    Some decently thick screw in hooks work well, as long as you have wood to screw into. If it is wood in a basement you wont even notice the holes. If it is through drywall into wood, a little piece of Spackle will do the trick when you take it down. They only leave one hole in the ceiling opposed...

    Need Professional Advice - Intake/Exhaust

    oh, lol, i didnt realize he said the door. You can still do the box, you're just not allowed to enter or exit the room : ). Would be better off just cutting a hole in the door and having a stand alone fan, not sure if thats enough to get the job done though.

    Need Professional Advice - Intake/Exhaust

The buds werent huge, but trichs were half clear/cloudy and all brown hairs in 5 weeks every time! You could just have a...

    Grow tent question.

    You can do it with about an inch of space. I had the same problem, except i didnt need to cut the pipes of the frame. I had around an inch of space when i put the cover over the tent. Assuming it is the same style tent (the sides zip all the way around the tent) You should be able to do it. It...

    4" x 4" Grow room - optimal number of plants?, size? #HelpMePls

    It depends how big you want the plants to get or how you want do grow them. As an idea, I have the exact size tent also with a 600 watt HPS. I currently have 9 plants in it in 5 gal buckets. I top most, but try not to let them get too bushy as the length and width are limited, but height is...
