What additions/adjustments/alterations/modifications have you made to your grow tents and or equipment

I’m looking for ideas with pictures please. personally I’ve added a 5ft tape measure sticker so I can get a quick estimate of plant/light height without actually needing my tape measure every time

Sorry, no pic right now, but I hung a small pocket flashlight from the front of my light so I’d quit bonkin my noggin. Probably not the kind of adddition you mean, but I don’t hit my head anymore!

I ended up putting some mylar strips along the front of mine…the fan moves them around so I notice. My light is 50 pounds…hurts

I put this 3.5 x 3.5 water table in the 4 x 4 tent…no more worries about spills…use a small shop vac to suck up runoff

Don’t have pic I’m at work.
Tie strings from the light to whatever height you want to keep them from top of plants.
Mainly posted so I could find back when I get time to post.

Ok I tie the excess rope from my light hangers at 1 at 12 inches 1 at 16 inches and one at 24 inches. That way I know were my lights are from the canopy.
Got rid of the cable light hangers and put key rings on each corner af light with a rope hanger on each one of those. Gives me better control of light height. Can raise them higher/closer to top of tent.
Piped my intake inline fan with pvc from top vent on side of tent to floor. Put exhaust inline fan going out the roof of tent. This gives me better air flow and evaporation.
The evaporation is needed because I added dog kennel pans for the floor of tent to catch run off water.
Use air pots instead of cloth bags. No risers needed to keep off floor so they can’t absorb run off water.
Put coffee cans around plants to fill with water to shorten water times. No more slow watering. Can do 8 plants in under 10 minutes. Also to help with that added a 45psi water pump.
Added a 4 foot power strip tied to one of the upright tent poles so I have plenty of outlets.
Use three 200 watt lights instead of one 400 watt light. Allows for different height adjustments rather than having risers under plants. Plus it allowed for 200 extra watts of light.
Put 4 light timmers in. One for 18/6 three for 12/12. First run doing a rotating light cycle 3 lights on for an hour then 2 lights on for an hour then back to 3 then back to 2 so on for the full 12 hours. Not during veg only during flower.
Tomato cages around plants instead of stakes.
If you want pics go over to thread Growing DrsDank or let me know what you want to see a pic of and I’ll post it for you.

I looked at airpots…almost pulled the trigger. Do you see any other advantages to them besides not needing risers, The main reason I did not get the was I did not see anybody else using them for weed…but now there is you…may reconsider.
