Old Reviews New tent and light advice (UK)

[Qbgrower]

Hi folks, hope everyone is well.

I'm trying to decide on a new tent and light setup and hope you can help me choose.

So I'd like to grow 3 or preferably 4 plants using autopots. I'd like everything contained within the tent reservoir, carbon filter, fan etc. Budget is £350 max.

I've been looking at the mars hydro tent range:-

120x60x180

100x100x180

120x120x200

As for the light I have a 135w quantum board so could either buy a ts1000 to go along with it or either the tsw2000 or tsl2000.

Could also get a sp150.

Or this https://invisiblesunled.co.uk/colle...ltural-lighting-system-powered-by-samsung-led

Look forward to hearing your advice.

Cheers

I'd avoid the TS lights, their newer models are way better. FC or SP would be my choice from their lineup

i grow in a 4x4 or a 120x120x200 that's just right for 4 big plants

Cheers @St. Tom Do you think I'd fit the autopot reservoir in there too?

What do you think about lights?

Not within my budget sadly. Why should I avoid the ts range?

Edit - Actually I could get the sp150 in budget.

Cheers mate. Brexit has made it so much more expensive to get stuff from Alibaba or imported from anywhere really.

I've also seen this light which I thinks pretty good value.

Mars Hydro FC series is their best. I'd avoid "no name" lights, warranty will be useless.

Not in my budget mate. Tents going to run between £100 - £150 which leaves £200 - £250 for the light.

Ah, the SP series is new. Likely almost as good. With ur quantum board it can power up to a 4 ft x 4 ft tent.
