    A dimmable ballast would be best

    From personal experience, I would stay well away from any Secret Jardin Tents. They are terrible in my opinion, quality, light leaks, ease of assembly and use is all terrible.

    Get yourself a proper quality tent and there is no need to look any further than the new BudBox XL Pro Series with white lining. They really are top notch for the price.

    If we are talking top tents at a good price, my first preference is Hydro-labs tents. Great workmanship and very good price.

    Right so had a quick look for lights and found
    Omega Digital 600W Watt HPS
    MH Dimmable Ballast Grow Light Kit Hydroponics with a 600w dual bulb. 282321389724

    I was tempted by the BudBox but unfortunately I can't stretch that far, definitely some thing to consider in the future

    I use part of a DR60 tent (long story LOL) and, yeah, there is light leak on the zip - however, for my purposes, that doesn't matter for me

    Great choice but look elsewhere and you can get the exact same for £89.95 as opposed to £124.99 on the bay. Just Growell and you will find it.

    Cool thanks, I'll have a little look. Yeh it's more expensive than I first thought so saving a few quid would be great how about the tent size with a 600w Dimmable Ballast, will dimming it to 400w be okay, or will I cook the plants?

    Since it is a smaller tent use a smaller light, the 400watt will be perfect with the right extraction and intake. 5" extraction with 4" intake all on controllers.

    The money you save on the 400watt will go towards the extra cost of the tent.

    Buy shit and buy it twice, buy the new BudBox and you know right away you have one of the very best redesigned tents on the market today.

    With regards to the ducting, much much cheaper elsewhere, it only take a look at the onestopgrowshop to see the difference and its free shipping.

    As for the Fans and Filters, have you ever looked at the RAM brand, they are very good at a great price too. They will be overkill but that is exactly what you want.

    Yeh, it's difficult to do anything in a flat without the neighbours finding out. I'm also after discrete packing and I'm not totally convinced eBay sellers know what that it, lol!

    So I've got my setup, just got to look around for cheaper but still quality products. I'll checkout RAM tomorrow, right now I should finish actual work. Thanks again for the suggestions, I'll post tomorrow with any updates.
