You are going to be hard pressed to find a 2x2 tent that is above 4 feet tall Amy. I know I am catching up and probably late but generally if you want 5' of height, you will likely need to go up to a 3'x3' or a 2'x4'.If Shed doesn’t mind, can I put a call out for recommendations for a good tent?
I’m needing about 2x2’ and 5-6’ tall.
Any recommendations? Advice? Things to avoid? PM me if you don’t want to post it on the boards.
That will work too! 1/4", 1/2" anything that will keep your larger chunks out. I have lots of 1/2" fencing from my outdoor garden and is what I will use.
I had a lemon tree I planted when I was stationed in Yuma Arizona. Damn thing never produced for me before I moved. I drove by the house a year later and the damn thing was producing hundreds of lemons. Guess I needed one more year there.
Naw, the stuff that oozed out of the bottom was more rotting garbage than worm tea! Next weekend I'll grab some ¼ mesh and make a screen and see what I get.
Most store-bought trees are grafted and should produce fruit very soon after they're planted. Yours may have just needed some time to adjust to the transplant. I've never had luck with dwarf trees in pots, but my next door neighbor has a dwarf lemon in their front lawn that's doing well. Good luck with yours!
Thanks VS! That cloner took more time to photograph and write up here than it did to build! And no matter how many times you say "trim prison" it will never lose the double entendre meaning to me!
Oh true. Maybe I'll try that tomorrow morning before I leave for work.
a 27 x 27 x 63 is as close as I know of... (Mars makes one)
Oh it's got lot of bugs. Fruit flies, other flies, beetles...and I'm sure lots of bugs I can't see. It's not supposed to be compost though, it's supposed to be vermicompost! Blew Hiller sent me the verms.
Not to mention your promise to drop a link to the build journal hereThansk Van.
Yeah actually the 2.5 x 2.5 x 5’ seems to be a standard size.
Still too short for my wants though hey. I couldn’t afford a Gorilla - they do an extension set to get extra height. Why are most small tents so short!!!? I guess there’s an assumption that small tents are for veg’ing or mothers or something. Not many manufacturers take a full grow in a small footprint into account. Man I have looked at a lot of tents recently!
Anyway I eventually settled on a Homebox (German brand). They have a 2.5 x 2.5 x 6’ so it’s gojng to be perfect. It also has white reflective coating on the inside and that appealed to me too (they call it PAR+). Along with my new, currently under construction, QB array, it’s going to be one bright, white 37.5 cu ft!
Man I’m happy I got the tent. And I made a contact with one of the main grow gear suppliers here in the process, so I’m happy about that too.

Mid July is the time - along with the new moon. I will try not to mention it again until then 
But I might, in anticipationIt’s coming... I’m putting off the journal until I drop the seed, to give myself a better break. But the light build will be the first feature of the journal you can be sure
.
Thanks JM! I actually watched some of that video last year when the idea of building this first came up, but now that I've built it I will watch it all the way through.

A bit of everything won't hurt. Just make sure nitrogen is at a minimum.
That will work
Thanks Derby!
