    Default Need help buying a tent/light

    Hi all, currently borrowing a tent and light from a close friend. But want to invest in my own kit with LED light system. Looking to spend roughly £2-300. Can anyone help?

    Is that £300 for everything?

    No carbon filter, fans, ventilation ect...

    Or just tent and light

    A good LED lighting kit from our sponsor Invisible Sun will cost about £200 for 250W kit. They have a Autumn special on at the minute too.

    Tent there are a number of good brands, but until size is know hard to work out cost. Hydro-labs, Green Cube are very good.

    I got my MarshHydro tent for £60.00 but you can get a cheaper one for about £40.00 on Amazon.
    In regards to lighting, i'm using a Viparspectra (reflector series) - you can pick these up for £130 brand new and they use low energy.

    You'll need an extractor fan as well and these range from £30.00 - £60.00.

    Some ducting for the fan (£5.00)

    Filter (£20.00 - £40.00) but you won't need this straight away.

    I'm using Canna Terra as my medium and you can get this on Amazon for about £14.99. You'll then need a PH Tester, EC Tester and ideally a moisture tester which are all fairly cheap (£30.00 - £40.00 for all three).

    Big bloom nutrients - £15.00 - £20.00 depending where to get it.

    Some pots - £6.00 (I wouldn't go mad on quality until they're bigger - paper cups will do)

    Then you just need your seeds

    Have I forgot anything?

    Sorry all should have explained more of what I’m after lol. Preferably 1x1x1.8 tent, I’d be more than happy if I could pick up all the essentials for 2-300£

    As Monster says, a decent LED will blow your budget by itself
