Bud box pros look half decent

I have a 79 litre Rhizopot and find it dries out quickly. Thus far I have harvested one tomato which was great. I have two tomatoes left, a automatic one and a photo. The original plan was to grow two early tomatoes and a full season tomato using two boxes of Ecothrive living soil. I have only used water treated with Neutralise PH of my tapwater is 8.5 so I did try using bio bizz pH down a couple of times but stopped because the tomato plants were so healthy and vigorous. Should I add anything to the soil considering I've allowed it to dry out?. Going to use saran wrap around the Rhizopot to keep soil moist and buy some clover I'm about to re order from growell. Can you give me a list of amendments like bio sys,etc I also need to use a canna zym type product Excellent soil so far.

I just bought my first tent. I looked at all the top companies, but everything just seemed like thing repackaged with 20 different names. The BlackBull video you mentioned is what got me looking at the budbox. However, finding a distributor in the states was not an easy task. After a couple weeks of looking and debating on trying a different brand of white tent, I finally found a reputable company to buy from "Central Coast Garden Products" out of California. The tent just arrived a week ago and haven't had a chance to set it up. The lack of people using or talking about white tents in the US and everything mylar, I started to question if i made the right choice. However hearing you guys talk the product assures me I did. 2+ months I nearly ordered a high end Mylar tent, but i think the Budbox will definitely be worth the extra research and waiting. Keep up the great work!

Homebox invented the growtent. General Hydroponics copied it because it had no patent and then everyone copied the Homebox. This was just prior to the 2007 Hemp Hydro Expo in Telford. Prior to that Growell had a plastic tubed tent frame. I had one. I also worked for Homebox at the Hemp Hydro Expo. GH tents and a few independents showing growtents. Didn't see Budbox. Saying that, Budbox growtents look very tidy and theyve improved the Homebox design. Credit where its due.

So white is so much better or should I rewatch ?

[@growell]

White is far better for par reflectivity, so no need for a re-watch, but we don't mind the extra views.

@growell horticulture hi guys does the white par plus material reduce heat in the homebox grow tents

[@growell]

The material won't have a big impact on heat in the grow tent. You might see some reduction compared to a silver mylar interior tent but this would apply across all tents, not just the HOMEbox ones.
