What diameter is the frame bars approx l, it's obviously a sturdy with someone hanging off it lol, the frame diameter is a big deal imo, I've had tents that near buckle with a good fan and filter so a sturdy frame is a must.

ill have to measure to be sure, but id say 1/2" metal. They seem pretty robust, but I doubt I could hang on them freely like they advertise... tho I havent tried lol

Ive got a Timber Redwood, 6" exhaust fan and carbon filter hanging in one with no issues at all. Im in the process of setting up my second mars hydro 4x4 tent this week. maybe ill give it a hang and report back lol

My cats have definitely caused some tiny pinholes in my tent. I need to cover those before flowering? What is the best way to cover them?

I'm about to buy a new/second tent. Does anyone know from first hand experience if the 1680d holds up better against cats? Haha. Thanks!

Skin your cats and use that to cover the holes. Killing 2 birds with one stone.

Haha this issue should be listed on the specs for new tents. -highly cat resistant-
Depends on the individual cat I assume. Big fat 20 lb tabby or little fluffy tiny

sea hawk is another brand which I dont mind. Obviously gorilla is better.

I like your thinking here. Although I’m against animal cruelty in all forms, there are a lot of ways to skins cat.

Also about tents. Gorilla has a lite line nowadays which is much more competitive. The 4x4 lite line is anywhere from 225-250 ish. Still gorilla quality but way easier on the wallet. 1 foot extension avail. Also 4x8 around 350$

Personally, my tent has pin holes in some spots, have had no issues flowering a 18 ounce plant in it

Any brands you guys recommend? Looking for a 4x4. Keep hearing gorilla grow, but not sure if the price is worth it?

btw going to be buying a sf4000 for it.

I’ve got a cheap Ohuhu 4x4. I’ve opened every zipper multiple times over 3 years. Multiple times a day. 30# air cooled reflector and a 6” fan hanging. Absolutely no problems. $82 delivered.

Vivosun 4x4x72. $135 a while ago. Pin holes and not perfect. Looks like new still. Held #105 between cobs and inline system. 3 rd gen now. But held for 4 grows and weekly openings for I don't know.
