    Looking to purchase new poles for my tent. Any recommendations?

    My cheapy poles are breaking and I'm looking to replace them. Is there anywhere that I can just buy poles and no covering?

    Additionally, if I had to buy a grow tent, what brands would you recommend?

    Not sure where to get replacements, but here's an idea. Get some 3/4" Sch 80 PVC pipe and fittings are build a new frame. You could also splint the broken poles with PVC pipe and some epoxy.
    Space 1: 3ft x 3ft T-Tek tent
    400W HPS Mag Ballast
    GH Floro - DWC
    Current grow - Humboldt Fem Green Crck from seed
    - TGA GSC x Space Dude clones

    Space 2: 6ft x 6ft x 8ft room
    IponicZone 400/600/1000W dimmable HPS E-Ballast
    Supplemented with California Lightworks Solar System 275 with spectrum control
    GH Maxi Series-DWC
    Current grow - Humboldt Fem Blue Dream from seed
    - Humboldt Fem Blue Dream Clones
    - TGA GSC x Space Dude from reg seed in dirt, G.O. Box nutes

      The problem IS the cheap tent, I know I've got a cheapo T-Tek, and rather than bin it, I'm prepared to fix it...$50 and a trip to Home de Pot when the time comes for mine to be repaired.

      I had received an extra tent shell. Thought the same thing about a PVC frame. The cost was not that much different from a brand new one. I figured after all my labor, the cost would be more expensive to build it.
      So I got a cheap one for like $120, that was 4 years ago and still functioning like the day I unboxed it.

      You sound like a person who takes care of his stuff. My guy at the grow store warned me that the frame on the T-Tek is a little fragile "don't let your drunk friends lean on it" is what he said. Not exactly an endorsement of the product, but I took it to heart and have the tent sandwiched against the wall and the end of some shelving so it's not flopping around when I'm zipping and unzipping.
