Need to hide plants for a few hours

Going into the dark for a while isn't going to hurt them any more than a cloudy day would hurt an outdoor plant. Pretty ballsy putting up a big tent in an apartment. How's the ventilation going to be when you have a bunch of plants in full flower?

It's a house, Semi detached and the room is on the gable end so furthest away from next door. It's not a massive grow, only 4 plants, Also have a carbon filter. Next door is out a lot too so quite lucky there.

Your a fucking ass hole to tell some one "pretty ballsy putting up a big tent in an apartment". The dude is super sick and is growing some medicine. Get the fuck off the threads.

Wow dude, I meant no disrespect and I was certainly not trying to start a fight. For a down to earth person, you sure do seem to be judgemental. Good day to you sir.

Sorry. Next time don't call someone out like that. The op wouldn't do it to you, so you know the routine.....

80x80x160? That's massive for 4 plants. I hope your numbers are wrong.

Nope. Not wrong. It's my first grow So don't want to try to much to fast. I think when they veg they will soon fill out the space. Should be plenty of height spare but nothing wrong with that.

Might want to consider using about 1/4 of it and hanging some sort of temporary wall for the lights to reflect off of. You'd be surprised how much light can be lost in that big tent.

The walls are already very reflective. They seem to be making good progress, Which surely will only get better as the plants get bigger and closer to the reflective walls.

Go rent a U-Haul trailer,

or your boot

load it up

and park a few houses down

maybe install a light

not big enough but

just enough to hold them in veg

2x 12v cfl's

A u haul trailer huh? For a couple seedlings? Oh boy thanks for the good laugh.

Cant you just put them in boxes and tape em shut when the land lord comes over?

Yes, I was more concerned about the effect of messing up the light cycle than where to put them.

Won't hurt them a bit. It's flower darkness that's critical. No more harmful than a cloudy day.
