you need to first help yourself and put in some hours of research and check out all the FAQ's and other people's posts. im sure 9 out of 10 of your questions have already been answered.

Well liar, for a first post you pretty much told the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth! +REP

There is literally 1,000's of ways you can go. No one can tell you exactly what to get. There is lots of folks doing grow tent runs on RIU, read through some posts. The biggest concern you should think about is where to get the equipment you choose. Do you have a hydro store in your area?

I dont think 6-12 plants is gonna happen for 500$say 200 for a light 200 for tent maybe less.U still need pots soil nutes testing equipment.Figure in 3 months of electricity.Fans and or a/c humidifier,dehumidifier.But good luck too ya.

the tent will work but dont expect to have 6 full grown plants in it. i have a 35 day old plant that is a good foot and a hlaf wide the 22x36 gives you room for two or three before they will start to fight each other for light and space. i have a 24x36x56 tent can house three plnats 1 month old before i start running out of room

The kits look OKAY, try out the hydro shops some of the guys will have friends selling tents cheep also the shops are a great place to pick up free samples of nutrients. The eBay kit for 200 is nice if it had the right plugs. I started with a 3x3 200 and a used light setup I got from crags list for 180 then I had to get the clamps and ducting and inline fans off eBay. Remember all the small things add up quick......

I spent a little more for the inline fan and carbon filter I think its important to spend time researching the types of carbon in the filters this will help to avoid getting stuck with one that really doesn't do the job.

that one tent you found with the 250 light would be good but the light is pretty week so youd want to upgrade that part when you got the money but if you have a real nice grow store you can probably go in and tell them that you got $___.__ to spend and want a completeish grow set up and they should be able to help you
