I bought 1 dr150w but had to send it back cuz it was ripped. hopefully I should get the new one in a week or so. I did have it set up for a day to get familiar with it

i would though like to see pics of the exhaust fan setup. They say to rest it on top of the roof but that doesn't seem sturdy. i will post pics of mine as soon as its's up

I ran two of the DR120s. 2x400w in each tent, I used a Dutch Breeze DFS3 through a Vortex 6 inch in each tent, which are perfectly sized. I used 3x3 Botanicare trays, coco coir, Canna nutes, I grew 9 plants in each tent from seed. I yielded 2 lbs 8 oz.
 
I have a secret jardin DR150W that has 3 400W lights (2 are CMH and 1 HPS).

Vortex 4 inch fan and 6 inch inline fan for exhaust. Plant numbers vary since I am doing a perpetual harvest.

You can visit the thread in my sig if you want to see how it looks since it is always changing in there.

Anyone have directions on how to set the damn tent up. I have a DR150 and seem to have lost the directions on setup. I have all the poles in their original lettered bags but not sure which goes where. Any help would be appreciated. Thx

The "A" poles go into the corner brackets to form the top and bottom part of the frame. They form a square shape...

The "B" poles are the first vertical poles to go into the square frame that's sitting on the floor.
The "C" poles fit on top of the "B" poles...

Now the other square frame made of "A" poles goes on top of all this......It will complete the skeleton of the tent.

When putting the tent over the frame......put it all on except for the bottom......they suggest that you lay the tent on it's side to properly get the bottom on without having any trouble. You shouldn't have to "stretch" the tent at all.....it should all fit around the frame easily without much of a struggle.

The "E" poles go on first for the ceiling.....The "D" poles second....in other words, the "D" Poles are underneath the "E" poles on the ceiling. You'll see what I mean when you put em up there....lol.

I'm going off the directions for my dr120...4x4....the dr150 is a little larger but you should be able to lay it on it's side without a problem.

Not that easy to explain in text.....but I hope this helps.

Let me know if you have any questions....

Good Luck!:joint:

Secret Jardin tents, put very simply, are the shit. They are light in weight, very reflective on the inside, and come with a nice carrying bag. Not to mention you can assemble/disassemble in all of 5 minutes. All you do is add your light, fan, and plants and you're off.

I love my DR150w. I am going to get 2 of the larger 5X10 Darkroom's soon and use the 150 for just vegging. But it is is doing well with my CAP ebb&gro setup right now.

Here is my setup>

DR120 OR 150? Hmmmmmmmmm

Mist: What's up with the grow? I'm lookin at gettin a dr120 or 150. I like the 5 x 5, just think it would be a little big for me & the old lady's room. I'll probly go with the 120 and end up being happier than expectd.
Nice journal! +rep

The grow is going fine. You can go to my grow diary and see what is going on with it.
What type of system you are going to use should have some play in what size tent you are getting. With my vegg tent setup I barely crammed the 2X4 ebb&flow table setup in there and the tent bulges out a little on one side. I would always go with the biggest that I have space for because I believe it is better to have too much space than come up short. But I also have an entire room devoted to growing. So I guess you will have to stick to your space constraints. No point in pissing off the wife, LOL!

In the end a tent will surely make your growing experience better no matter what the size.


Happy Growing.

I got five DR120's and I love them!

The thing I like most is that they improve them constantly. I got my first one like 2 years ago, and they've done quite a few improvements since. :yes:

However, for my next run I'm getting rid of three of them and getting a DR300W instead.

I'll get a diary going as soon as I start the run.

I agree if we're talking about the first series.

With the new one, zips are great and for light leaks... well 100% is a lie, but 98% is more accurate.

Edit: Missed that you were talking about the Street version. That one I have no exp with, I was talking about the Darkroom series.
