My cross bars aren't just right in my grow tent, need ideas.

Discussion in 'Grow Room Design/Setup' started by Auto-Bud-Man, Sep 19, 2018.

  1. My grow tent came with two bars; one side-to-side and one front-to-back. I rigged up the carbon filter/fan in back on the "side to side" bar and my single light is hanging from the "front to back" bar but I'm going to add a second light so I need to add another "side to side" top bar to hang them from and I've had no luck buying one.
    I'm wondering if anyone has some trick ideas about rigging something up cheap and easy. I thought about copper pipe the same diameter as my tubing as I have some of that laying around. What did you do when faced with this situation.

  5. Well...I had to adapt and overcome. :)
    I didn't have a long enough bit of copper pipe so I used a 1" x 2" board and just lashed it to the cross beams at the ends and the center...it worked fine. I ordered some 550 Paracord from Amazon and I'll give it a second lashing when that comes.
    thanks for the help.
