The best way to set up a grow tent kit

When your grow tent kit arrives and it comes to setting up first thing you should do is make sure that you set up some where close to were you can duct your hot out of and have enough room, as when you unpack there is
a lot of equipment and it does take up a lot of floor space.The fist thing you need to do is set up your tent so leave every thing else in its packaging doing this will help you keep track of all the equipment you have recieved
with your kit. Once you have followed the instructions with your tent and got that set up correctly you can move on with installing the rest of your equipment.

Now you can move on and i would say to set up your fan and filter i would this next because if you set up your light first it could get in the way when installing your fan and filter.
To set up yuor fan and filter correctly i would suggest that you first wire your fan as most do not come pre-wired, now short out your ducting run from your fan to were you will be ducting out of as this is the longest piece of ducting and you dont want
to leave your self short. Now sort out the ducting that will go from your fan to your filter about a meter should do this job. Remember to set up your fan and filter so you pull air through the filter not the other way around,
if you do push air through the filter it will not do the as good a job and will shorten the life of the filter.

The next thing you should put into your tent is the light remember dont put the ballast in the tent place it outside your growing area as they do create a lot of heat and could cause you problems if you dont,
and keep them off any carpets with a board or something similar and give them room to breath do not cover!!!.When you hang your light you should hang it up out of the way until your plants have been added then you can adjust
the light hieght to your requirements. When you have got your light to the required hiehgt lower your filter to a hieght similar to that of the light, by donig this you pulling away the heat given off by the lamp and extract it straight out of your grow room.

Some thing you should take into consideration when hanging all your equipment is what you are going to use many people use string if nothing has been provided with the kit. I dont think that string is a very good idea when it comes to hanging equipment in your grow tent as it
can be very unreliable and if your light falls on your crop believe me it will cause some damage. If your kit comes with light hangers make sure that you have locked them into place before you leave as they have also been known to fail and allow lights
to fall onto plants. THe best solution to hanging all equipment is jack chain as its strong and will last a lifetime and has never let me down in all the years i used it.

Grow tent kits are the easiest way to go when comes to indoor growing and when set up correctly will deliver great indoor harvests all year round giving you the chance to have fresh produce grown in any room you choose.
Follow these few simple steps and you should have no problems and one of the best things about a grow tent kit is that when you have finished your growing it can be taken down in just minutes and stored away till next
leaving no trace behind what so ever
