Hello to you all
Here is what i've managed to do with an Argos Single wardrobe with black canvas-style cover  ..........that only costed me £14.99  , 1x4" extractor fan kindly donated by a friend, some recycled 4" aluminium fan ducting, 2 rools of Focus Therma wrap...£30  ..and 2 rools of Duck Tape....
Light wise i'm using a 250W sodium lamp at the mom. To keep the air circulating and the temp 25c 28c when the light is on i am using 1x 23cm Desk Fan £5.51 and also 1x75cm Tower Fan £9.99 bought at Focus as well..... and ii've t's doing the works  The next step will be to make it light-proof.... -------------------- |

I had one of them once - be careful when it comes to flower. You'll need to cover it with a thick throw or blackout curtain to make it light proof. Id beware of it melting around the light on hotter days.
Good luck though bro! -------------------- Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom. |

yeah well ya do find ya need to upsize pretty quickly...one rule i think to stick by for veg mum boxes...just make sure you have enough height to fully veg your girls if needed ok.

Hi Ice Blue
, thanks for popping in m82day i've decided to use the small loft i have above my garage because the plumber called in 2day about 11am for some repairs  .....latter he asked the missus if he could have a fag in the back garden the missus said yes and toke him trough the conservatory  (that's where i had my tent) with the extractor working (a bit noisy and smelly)and that's when he turned and asked the missus, what was she groing inside cos of the smell and the extractor fan  and then she said i have some tomatos inside the tent....i was just glad she didn't open the tent to show him inside Thats when i decided to use that small loft, it toke me half day to do it, but i must say it's spot on....temp wise it's 37,5c, great ventilation and it's light proof as well, no smells or noises, well happy  cos i've got enough height to fully veg my girls as well.2morrow i will post some pics See ya dude

Excellent setup there, was thinking of doing the same myself
I was thinking of the exact same idea but having the tent on its side, so i have the width/length rather than the height. I'd just be using it as a veg box before i put them outside though. Nice work -------------------- |

I like anyone'e efforts to try and save a few quid like! But when it's done with such good results. Then i love it!
i went for a box (woods easier to get) save myself a bomb to cause i got old offcuts from work, but you did a sweet job mate of that tent! Hope it gives you a lush smoke!!
