You should look at Fullmetaljacket 's stealth cabinet build. Im going to be doing something similar. Seems like the best way is to build your own and invest the cash into it. That way you get exactly what you want.

insulation board is a silver lined styrafoam type material that insulates houses and stuff, they use it alot when insulating brick basements and things like that. and you should be able to use that mh in any tent i think but Ive never used one so i dunno for sure




wow a grower that dosent smoke, now thats really rare. You grow as a caretaker or as profit?
I said that about building one because thats the only gauranteed way i can think of your car fitting in there with a big tent.
caretaker and Im going to be selling my "overage" to a dispensary.
but first I need to get a larger grow area, so i can have some overage ;)

like i said before Im not equipped to build anything or modify anything. I dont have any wood tools. saws. ect. Im a girl. I dont have that shit.

so really for me its quite a bit easier to find something that i can just assemble and disassemble easily than to try and injure myself attempting to build something with inadequate tools.

dont take this wrong, but you played the "Im a girl" card first.... bat yer eyelashes at some guys with those tools and get them to build it for you... throw in a 6 pack and a steak and yer set ;)

otherwise, i get you totally on not wanting to MacGyver it.... i would love to just buy a prefab deal myself.

lol. its not that i cant get guys over to do the work. its that i prefer to keep my growing to myself and as few people as possible. i.e. my mother and my boyfriend and her love interest are the only ones who know we even grow. Id like to keep it that way. that being said neither of them are real handymen either. Im sure put to the task they could probably do it, but prefab seems like a lot less hassle. and not to mention hauling of things. we dont own a truck or any type of suv that can haul supplies to fabricate something like that, soooooo theres alll sorts of issues. lol.

I feel ya. Grow tent then I guess. most of the prefab cabinets arent worth it really.

Just thought i'd pipe in. :-)

I have been using a Budbox grow tent for the past few months, and i am very impressed, my main issue was the fact that i could'nt 'write off' a whole room. I only had enough space at the back the office. So it suited me perfectly. They are light-tight, easy to assemble (push fit), water resistant etc... and they can be easily packed up into the included holdall. They also have the necessary light and ventilation support bars included, aswell as several adjustable intake and exhaust holes. So they definately get a thumbs up from me :)

just buy some pvc piping at the local hardware store and ask if they can cut it for you get the size you want grab some connectors and its as easy as legos make a box and buy some panda plastic and tape it to the box with duct tape and try to make it as light proof as possible and with as little seams as possible.

I dunno why people keep suggesting the same thing when i already said i dont want to build something myself. its not JUST the fact that i dont have tools. it might be easy for you to do, but for me its much easier to just buy something which is why Im asking about that NOT how do i make my own grow room.

......:wall::fire::wall:

ok but im just sayin a quarter of the cost and you need the skills of a retarded monkey and a roll of something you probably have (the tape that is)

shes only saying that she does not want to build it, why is that so bad?:-|
I understand some people have the money to spend on those things and would rather do that than be spending time and stress by building one.

well if I was asking for advice on how to make a fucking grow room then you're comments would be helpful but since THATS NOT WHAT IM ASKING FOR you're comments are just going through "deaf ears". if you read the entire post... cost is not an issue. Im looking for EASE of set up. and I highly doubt that tape is a good method. it needs to be able to UNZIP so that one can get in and garden!! I dont want some FUGLY looking ghetto ass contraption clogging up space in my house. I am not fucking white trash thank you very much!

meow ftt ftt... I dont blame you, youve had to say it over and over...
are you wanting a tent or a cab(like the pre setup metal locking ones)
Ill take a look @ some products online and let you know which would be the best for your price range. I need a price line and what exactly youd like it to do (or if you want to be able to do start to finish type deal). What i mean by that is what types of medium would you like to use, do you need it to come complete with lights and fans for ventalation (I remember you said you have a mh you wanna use in there). I also need to know how much room you have so I know youll still be able to fit your car in there.

Unless you use a cab you will have to put up the grow tent and install ventilation/air exchange and lighting(/possibly venting?) systems...

ima get off here for a bit @ least if not for the night(doubtful) and Ill look tomorrow/later tonight for a system/product that would either suit you needs or suit them with an easy modification(sometimes perfect modules arent available for what your needs are without em:sad:. but im a diy master so i can tell you how to do anything with the shit around ya house:-P. and Ill be willing to bet ya something nice that I can do it with 80% of the stuff you have @ home)

something about 4-5 feet wide by anywhere from 5-10ft long. (i'm not sure if they even have tents/cabs that big since ive been so buys this weekend i havent looked much).

I sort of get the idea of what the fans entail, but an extra tutorial always helps. anyways. let me know if you find anything good. you might know some better sites than i do.

preferably under $500, but Ive seen decent size tents for around $200 from the little Ive looked around!

cant blame ya there. Not so worried about piggies on here though myself

I looked around today and I couldent find anything for ya that had everything in it that you would need such as the tent, exaust/intake systems, and lights.
I could always send you seperate links but I think you are going to HAVE to do some of this in the end.
If nothing else you will certainly have to run your own venting system since I would assume that your garage air would be terrible to just keep exchanging and then intaking same said air back in the tent.

Or you could come off like 1-3 grand for one of those locking metal cabinets that do have everything they need already put together...

yeah. Im sure i can put together the intake and air stuff. I kind of understand it, but we are having a big neighborhood garage sale this weekend, so my boyfriend and i are gunna go out and see if theres any good cabinets out there for sale. hah. I want something that can fit like 15-20 plants since Im going to sell the overage to a dispensary!
