 DO NOT BUY A GROW TENT

Well I give up. I have tried everything. It has to be the tent.
Yes I've checked the ph, the light, the air intake and exhaust...
Even when I have, say 10 plants in my veg cabinet.
If I put 5 of them in the tent, they are fucked up within 2 days.
The only thing that changed is they are in the tent.
The other 5 plants are always fine.
I just wasted 3 months dicking around with this shit.

What is it, a hydro hut? I believe they are full of toxic chemicals and had been recalled...

Yup Hydrohuts were recalled a while ago if its a hydrohut.
I have 2 hydro huts I still need to send in so I feel your pain.. Those huts killed so many clones before I found out about the recall.... Was driving me insane trying to find out what it was.
Here's info on the recall.

a couple of years ago, i won a 4x8 hydro hut in a raffle. i hated it and sold it quick. I'd rather just build my own and sleep on top of it.

I was doing well with my home made one,
but the tent offered twice as much space.
what a waste of time and money.

Sorry to hear that. I was one of the lucky few who got the first run hydro huts with the good tents and i love it to death. The only thing i dislike about the things is that the zippers broke way to easily on them.

Well, as further proof that these tents are toxic
I built my own new tent using the frame from the grow tent
and black and white poly and a stick on zipper.
everything is going good, no signs of damage like there was after 2 days in the original grow tent.
So there is hope for those of you that bought one of these godforsaken grow tents:
just make a new shell, it'll cost you a roll of black and white and tuct tape

Yes folks the adhesive that holds the two layers of tent together are toxic, or they were only for a few batches of tents. Now almost all the tent makers get the tents from the same company.
Now I found one that I think you guys will like and am currently using them myself and will vouch for them.
The name of the company is Secret Jardin, and the product is called the "Dark Room". Take a look and tell what ya think. Not white on the inside it has like the dimpled aluminum look that the inside of reflectors have.

erm - I meant what size
and how loaded is it?
It would be cool to fully load those things if you got the 8by8' and loaded the rear and sides or read and middle and one side then after everything was loaded you loaded the last end...
I've never used tents before but many people bitch about working area

I've seen pictures of yours over at the Shroomery that had the inscription "Sweet 16", but I didn't realize it was the strain. You've definitely got to recount the story behind that one.

Not a whole lot of story to it. I needed something with little branching and a high resin count. I did my work with Sweet Tooth and Mikado. The resin count and the taste I wanted came fairly quick but it took me 16 attempts till I came up with a mother and a good mail that will fairly consistantly give plants from seed that will do this,
Some of the seeds and some cuttings have made it around to Shroomery members and they seemed to have good results.

*still waiting* :P
I recently came across a cutting for cherry slyder that has produced the most resinous buds for me to date. I can't wait until i can get back in the swing of things so i can work with it again. I want to cross it with a heavy indica, most likely an afghan variety, to densen up the buds. I was told it was a heavy producer, but after my one run with it, and my friends several runs, it looks like it's just not true. However, the potency more then makes up for the small bud size and the hash it can produce is just out of this world.
Good to see you around these parts mag, we need more pics and help I'd love the chance to spend a day in your garden, i sure as hell miss mine.

im going agro with my next grow. Soil has proven to be costly, a headache, and a security risk. Not to mention my local hydro shop shut down last year so i have no place to buy decent soil close to me. I'm hoping these hempy buckets will work out well. My friends will be trying them out so i'll get to witness them before investing any time and effort into them.
