Complete Grow Tent Set Up - Your Opinion Please

[JesusLover]

I was looking into this complete set-up from HTG Supply (There is one near me) as the all-around just go get it, set it up, and grow, no hassle just do it thing. I would like all of yours' opinions on the quality of the products versus the price. Now I understand that many of you could get this for half the price used on e-bay and haggling with buddies and whatnot but this is about "just go buy it all in one trip" and get started.
Here's the link:
HTG Supply - HTG 1000w Grow Tent Kit

$610.95 for the basic set up. But I added the digital ballast for $91.00 and the GrowBright 4" HV Fan & Tall Boy filter Combo for 117.45; for a grand total of $819,40 + $49 tax.

I initially wanted to start with a top quality LED in a smaller tent for less heat and burn-down-the-house reasons but an SK450 Spectrum King LED is $899.00. Maybe I would just rather deal with getting rid of all that heat. but still, six of one, half-dozen of the other...

Looks good but i would suggest a hortilux bulb set. they are the best and you will get better buds period. check them out.

Went down to the local HTG grow shop and compared a few things... let the dudes make their pitch:

Looks like a...

600 watt digital ballast
-digital plus 600w HPS
--Big Kahuna 6" reflector
---15' socket set
----AgroMax Large grow tent
-----6" GrowBright HV fan
----GrowBright thermometer
--- 6" PureFlow filter
--5 gallon grow bags--skip these I have my own pots
-Roots potting soil
6" flexible ducting
-13" saucer
--1/8" x 8' rope ratchet
--- 16"Growbright oscilating fan
all this stuff give or take what I chose for the 1000 watt set-up but basically the same set-up for both just 600w and 1000w being the difference.

Basically all that for $775 bucks out the door for the 600 watt set-up. and dude said 600 watter will be 10 degrees cooler than 1000 watter.

I won't need the grow bags. I want solid 5 gallon pots that are easy to move around. My Smart Pots aren't necessarily that easy to move in a tight space and water seeps through the sides.

But the LED set-up that was suggested has a cost so far of:

LG-G04B96LED 96 x 3w LED lights ---------------- Two at $180 each -----= $360
Grow Tent ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------$140 plus free shipping
Active Air 6" in-line fan 400cfm with fan speed controller -------------------------$94

So I'm at $600 already on that set-up without all the other things I will need. Looks like the 600 watt set-up [for $775 otd] is going to be the way to go... unless I can just buy the $140 grow tent and scour the earth for all used stuff...? But then there's shipping and blah, blah, blah....

Decisions, decisions...

Just make sure you bring in good fresh air to replenish your natural co2.
Get some good advice from some soil guys on a good feeding reg.
Just remember the word "KISS" keep it simple stupid.
You'll do just fine.
Good Growing.
