A complete 4x4 kit, which is mostly useful because it removes the compatibility guesswork — tent, light, fan, filter, ducting and controller are specified to work together rather than assembled from three separate orders.
From our own use
We have used grow tents in a garage. A tent turns a corner of one into a contained grow space.
What's in the kit
-
48" x 48" x 80" tent — 2000D Oxford canvas, double stitching, 100% lightproof, white PE mylar lining
-
450 W full-spectrum LED grow light
-
6" inline fan with a 6" x 12" carbon filter and ducting
-
WiFi app controller — monitor and control fan speed and conditions from your phone
- Automatic drip irrigation system
- 6" clip fan
- Two 5-gallon grow bags, plus the accessory kit
- 20 mm steel frame with triangle corner connectors, rated to support 90 lb
The 90 lb frame rating is the number to plan around
Everything you hang — the light, the filter, the inline fan — loads that frame. 90 lb is comfortable for the kit as supplied and is worth knowing before you add anything heavier later. For comparison, the larger 4x8 tent carries 400 lb on its top bars, which is the difference between a kit you run as supplied and a frame you can keep building on.
Run the fan slower than you think
At 48 x 48 x 80 in the tent is about 107 cubic feet (our arithmetic on the stated dimensions). The usual target is to exchange its air roughly once a minute, so around 107 CFM is what the job actually needs — and a 6" inline fan will comfortably exceed that.
That headroom is genuinely useful, because a loading filter and every bend in the ducting cost you airflow. But it means the fan is meant to run well below maximum. Carbon needs contact time to adsorb odour, so air pushed through too quickly is filtered less well — a fan at full tilt can remove less smell than the same fan at half speed, while being far louder. Turn it down until odour control is good and the noise is tolerable. The app control makes that easy to tune rather than guess.
