Shan, my man; I'm s(h?)anguine ;)
Whooa! Hold on! Never, once thought ye were trying to sell me shit!!! Good god, no! Please don't think that ever crossed my mind!
Hell, no. I asked for as many opinions as we could get. You offered yours. Just happened to like the look of what ye showed me.
No. Look, let's start again. K? From the beginning:
I Fucked Up!!!
:) Clear? I asked peoples advice before. They freely offered it. My head was spinning Long before even that point. Something flew off. I fucked up.
Now, at least I have a 3x3, £100+ 'Safe Space', set up in my back room. Looking gorgeous. And into which I shall presently zip myself and cry my fucking eyes out!
ROFL!!! Naah! Fuck it. What's a man to do? Seriously?
And, people were telling me " Black Friday! ". I didn't even (still don't!) know wtf that is. But, I see it's shaved a smooth £Ton off that deal, if I manage to snatch it before the weekend?
" Spider Farm "? That's a Name, isn't it? Reviews are Great. It'll practically Undoubtedly Save me more shit than it'll cause me.
Then, I can get onto bending you poor fukkas ears about the 'bucket of water and air pump' method. I fancy that. Back in the day, I was a south facing window sill and a flower pot of dirt guy.
Dunno. Just buying an expensive meter and taking readings each day actually sound simpler, now, than digging my finger in the pot. Dunno. I'll remain to be convinced otherwise ;)
Thanks :)
Here's a link to my current set up. There are several Brands and size variations. Good luck!
Mind answering more questions? So, is a zip is an ounce, and you're getting that per gallon of container? I've been looking at this 3'x3' spider farms kit on Amazon. I'm trying to pull 4-8 ounces per grow - will a 3x3 be capable of that? I've got a degree loosely related to horticulture and I anticipate being better than average due to this - not bragging - just that I expect to be doing well after a few runs. I've been trying to figure this out for months honestly without much luck. I'm closing on a house in a week - the time to start growing is now! 🤙
I use the spider farmer 27x27x62 tent kit which comes with the dimmable sf1000 LED (Samsung diodes), 4 "online fan with a 4" carbon filter very similar to what your looking at.
I just grew three plants at the same time from seed to harvest without any issues. My set up is similar to this one and there is a zero percent chance that I will get a bigger tent and have the urge to upgrade sizes because I don't have the space. Basically, I am not worried about upgrades unless something breaks and I try a different light or exhaust fan. I am completely happy with my set up and would buy this exact kit again.

I'm going off of what I've learned from years of pepper research and info my commercial cannabis grower friend here in Canada is giving me, peppers need basically opposite humidity levels when they fruit vs cannabis when it flowers.
Currently using this kit with high end organic soil, fish emulsion, and cal-mag later in the growing stage.
If your on a budget and want to only just grow the limit and have top shelf flowers I recommend this kit. It's the same setup I have I just updated a few items in the kit. I upgraded the light to the SF2000, got a AC infinity exhaust instead of the one that comes with the tent and a digital timer instead of the analog timer.

Not sure if your talking USD or CAD , but this setup is what I would take the light is more reliable in my opinion . (559.99CAD)
I’ve heard both sides on wether to run 24/0 or the 18/6, so i’m testing that out, good to know. The kit is nice man, definitely easy for the beginner to setup and figure out how everything operates. i would say it’s a bit small if your looking to run more than 2 plants, here’s the link tho.

I got this setup from amazon when it was on sale.

This is the setup I have, and as thehotmcpoyle said there is no smell thanks to the carbon filter.
No issues with it. First harvest wasn't the best (in terms of quanitity) but it wasn't because of the equipment.
I just started and bought this kit: Spyder Farms Grow Tent. Bought my seeds from North Atlantic Seed Co. All six sprouted and I also received a bunch of freebies from them.
Got a little fancy and have my lights, fans, heaters controlled by Home Assistant, and triggered by time of day and/or temp changes, to keep things (hopefully) just right.
A friend of mine grows as a caregiver so they have been helping me out, but I also did lots of reading at growweedeasy and /r/microgrowery
I'm open to book recs!
I pulled off the first SpiderFarmer setup I saw but it's pretty similar to what I have. Then you're just missing a humidifier, Coco, nutes and a couple other miscellaneous things. So I'd say another 200 on top of that. But if you went with a lower light you can save yourself some money. I have a Mars Hydro TS600 which is a very good light as well.

this is the first tent and the other tent is like half a foot bigger on all sides.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B088R3JHHD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_B6N522M8JS97VD44X6VG this is budget friendly with a way better light and taller tent.
There's a Spider Farm kit on Amazon that's right near that range. If a 2x2 (or 27"x27" rather) tent size is what you want.
