I am limited on space therefore I have to have a smaller tent :( I like the 2 in 1 tents could someone please help me decide which would be better pls?
The first is a 48" x 36" x 80" 2-in-1 by Yield Lab

The other option would be TopoGrow 2-in-1 Indoor Grow Tent 48"x36"x72" The issue with the Yield Lab is it is made of 210D Oxford Cloth but it's 6.6' tall vs The Topogrow which is 6' tall but the exterior is 600D. I just wanted a little feed back from ppl who already own one of these or similar. Is 6 inch's worth going down to 210D Ext Cloth or do you want to have 600D ext but 6 inch's shorter? I'll post links below if ya want to take a peak. This will be my first Tent Grow and I'm pretty stoked about being able to grow my own. And I will know exactly what strain and products used on them for the first time in my life! Thx in advance!!!

Sorry about the font issue's....
 
I would go with the 6ft, just because I've never grown anything that I needed 6ft of space for. Highest I've had to put a light is around 5'5" but that was because I didn't top or train and it turned out to be a monster.
 
I like some Sativa's and once you add that to the amount of space the light takes up and the pot bag itself it may take1.5-2'foot. So now I'm down to 4 feet of useable space approx. I'm not sure never had a tent before and I think the QB's might be best for now. Some of the Landraces I got get damn tall, deff have to scrog or something but I like Indica to, most of the time they just make me sleepy, but I love em for it.
 
Go with the taller tent. some of these larger autos will max your space if done right. 6 inches could be the difference between beautiful nugs, and burnt tops.
 
Well I've personally never seem or grown over a 5ft tall plant including pot, now I'm not saying it hasnt happened but the usual reason for a tall lanky plant is not enough light. If you are growing anything and its putting anymore than 2" gaps between buds then light is too weak.
 
I just ordered my first tent and I went with a taller tent(80") because I read to many grow journals of people having height issues during their grows and having to supercrop or otherwise worry about plant height.

If I train my plants it should be because I want to and not because I HAVE to.
 
Whatever the space calls for, fill it with the biggest tent available.
 
Always get as much height as you can.

Ok thx, Prop, AutoW and everyone for the advise! I will go ahead and order the taller tent. The Yield Lab is the only one I could find with an 80" inch tall tent, unless there is another brand that I may be over looking.?. Just wasn't sure about the thickness because I read a lot of ppl complaining about light holes and such in their tent's. If it does have light holes I can just tape em or throw a black moving blanket over the tent. It is going to be in the room where I sleep, so I'm going to have to figure out a way to cover the "exhaust port" with something (cause of light exiting). I've looked at different covers for the pipe once it exits the tent just haven't found anything yet. Problem is you can't cover it to much due to the air flow, but maybe an elbow bent 90 degrees and put some sort of grate over the exit. Not sure, will have to play around with it. And it seems that the exhaust will need to exit out the top, the right side is not an option nor the left side (that's were my bed is).
