thank you 
…love 
the use of the 4" intake fan with 6" exhaust fan together for an ideal balance 
…the improved control of the tent’s air flow is fantastic with the tent’s negative pressure …the tent’s humidity and temperature are now kept in a good steady range with no more high/low reading spikes…having more control of my grow environment is what i was lookin’ 
for and an active air intake achieves that …THANKS again for your help with my past humidity issues!

stretch is believed to have finally stopped
…grew from 15" to about 34" 
since the light transition to 12/12 
…top of canopy is closer than the recommended 12" distance away from light but not by much
-
left grow is a bit behind in compared to the right grow
-
still have 5+ weeks to go

using the start as grow practice to improve on new training techniques 
all of your advice has been helpful as I take it all 
…to clips, to intake fan, to air pump in start, to training, etc …
you helped me add sugar/carbs 
on my last grow which had fantastic results…it has been in the rotation since
thank you again @Mpower11

thanks @Gmann9116
just do it you will be glad you started …it’s not complicated …it can be initially set up in a very affordable way too as tent grow upgrades can occur over time
this is how I started my 1st tent grow …under a table with a beach towel

thanks @Aang …that grow 
worked out well …eventually moved 
it to a mini tent 
…did a side by side grow comparison …it was a NO contest with the tent’s result winning 
by a landslide

Hi @Bobface86 it was a TopoLite 16"x16"x48" ($57.07 on amazon now) …couple inches bigger than a grobo
the 100w Mars TS 600 ($79.99 on amazon now) went well with this mini tent
vivosun 4" 195 cfm inline fan with 4" carbon filter combo ($59.99 on amazon) completed the tent set up for under $200

Thanks for this info. I’ve only grown 2 harvests so I’m still a newbie. I want to try the tent. I’m going to order this today. This group always helps.

Can you share some info on the pump for the Start please? Why would you do that. I’m a novice so I wanted to get some knowledge. Will that allow you to keep it in the Start longer? Thanks

Hi @Bandit …the Start is an excellent seed starter with seeds popping only after 2-3 days …i usually try to keep a grow in the Start no longer than 2 weeks as i desire to transfer to a permanent medium as soon as possible so she can grow big
the Start was not meant for a full grow although i’ve seen some AG growers take it all the way to flower before…
past grows that I’ve kept in the Start for several weeks get unhealthy with droppy leaves and oversaturated peat pods… despite a low water level…
i added an air pump to this grow to convert my Start into a mini DWC system (aerate the roots) as my tent is currently full…DWC is the same hydroponic system as a Grobo (bucket with an airstone)…easy to make your own DWC system
air pump not recommended to add if you want to use the Start as a seed starter as it will oversaturate the peat pod …i had to raise the peat pod holder to avoid the pod getting too wet
