MARS HYDRO2x2x3 Advanced Grow Tent, 24"x24"x36" High Reflective Mylar 1680D for Hydroponics Indoor Plant Growing, with Floor Tray and Smooth Zipper for TS600

I looked for the right tent for several months, watching You Tube videos and reading ads on Amazon and decided on the Mars Hydro. I'm happy about my choice.The things I like about this tent are:The quality of the materials: The outer fabric is sturdy and well assembled/stitched. The zippers operate very smoothly with no kinks or binding. Just make sure the flaps (to keep out light) are clear of the zipper. The inner material is highly reflective and includes a reflective floor tray for catching spills. It's a nice feature. The frame materials are very sturdy and appear to be able to hold most accessories you'd need (lights, fans, etc.).Assembly was easy overall. I really didn't follow the instructions for assembling the frame and had to take one section apart when I put the cross bar roof support into the top side bar connector. It was easy to figure out my mistake when things didn't line up and switched the supports around. The tent slipped easily over the frame, keeping in mind that you need to pull the material over the frame carefully, not forcing anything. I have a tent from another company where the door didn't zip close because the material is too short. With the Mars Hydro everything fits perfectly.There are plenty of ports for threading cords and allowing air to flow. Also, there's an observation window.I highly recommend this tent.

So far the tent has been perfect, it has plenty of vents, was pretty simple to put together seems to be made very well. My only issue is the lack of the option to purchase additional support poles for the top. The price was a bit more then I wanted to spend even with a coupon but they were the only ones with the odd size as well as mostly positive reviews do I went with it. I really wanted a 60” by 36” by 80” tent but this one comes very close so I like it. I don’t use the view window much but it does come with one. I noticed a few very minor pin holes in the corners which are very tiny so I just have to be sure if I ever need complete darkness I plan accordingly but as of now I’m growing carrots and other veggies so it doesn’t matter.The material seems very sturdy and thick. I would recommend this tent as it has some of the best reviews, is made of quality material and has a solid zipper on it. Just know you can’t get additional support beams from the company but maybe that will change one day. They do sell additional side bars on their website so I’m optimistic.

I wanted a tent on the smaller side for a single plant that wasn't too expensive and would allow for future upgrades and this is exactly what I needed. This is a high quality tent for the price, with a nice build quality, heavy duty walls and seams, rock solid zipper and very reflective inner lining. The tent's access openings are well laid out, allowing for cable running and ventilation. I also like the movable cross bars for light hanging. Mars Hydro makes a lot of optional fans, filters, lights and pretty much everything you need that are compatible with this tent so I know that if I need something in the future, I can easily find it.The only feature I would like to have this tent lacks is some kind of pockets for storing small things like pruning shears and other small stuff but I can easily keep things like that nearby so it's not a deal breaker.

Been using this tent for several months now and overall I’m happy with the purchase. The setup is pretty simple although it looked daunting at first. I have had no issues with it holding up 2x Viparspectra xs200 so it’s pretty sturdy just be mindful of bumping into it as it is a very simple rod frame. For its width I feel that 2 cross bars for the tents roof would have been better than one. The zipper has never given me trouble and I open and close it pretty quickly sometime. The Velcro for the vent holes is strong and has enough ports for good air flow. The material inside is highly reflective which makes me put on sunglasses when I’m working inside of it. The opening for an exhaust fan takes a 6” ACinfinity fan well. Here is my main issue which may be a deal breaker for some. I don’t know if I got a faulty tent as I had used their 2.3 x 2.3 before and it did not have this issue, but this tent came with around 10 pinholes which cause light leak, to me this is a major flaw based on their claims of being light proof. Since the tent isn’t located somewhere where this would cause an issue for me it doesn’t bother me much but if light leaks are not something you can afford to have then be aware

I am very pleased with the durable material of the MARS Hydro grow tent. Being very limited on space, this smaller size tent fit my needs. The construction is of excellent quality and not flimsy at all. I like the zipper flap feature to keep the light from shining out into the room through the zipper as many people complain about with other tent manufacturers.Some people are more concerned about keeping the light from going into the tent during flowering stages of growth, but I think that notion is a bit too paranoid because any plant with naturally be exposed to moonlight anyway. Whatever your belief about stray light into the tent, this MARS Hydro tent will satisfy you.I think grow tents as a general rule are overpriced for what they are, but if you wait for a sale it helps to justify the cost. Some other brands are insanely priced that cannot be justified ever--even on sale, but MARS Hydro is decently priced in comparison to other similar products and it's worth paying the few extra dollars above the flimsy lower quality tents available.I am now a MARS Hydro fan and highly recommend their products. Hopefully as indoor growing of plants in a controlled environment becomes more popular, the prices of indoor growing supplies will come down.
