Tent repairs.

[Rozgreenburn]

My Apollo 3 x 3 tent is getting a janky zipper after 5 years. I think some Velcro and a hot glue gun might do the trick. It is the best tent I've got, way heavier than the rest of mine! I'd love some insight from anyone who has fixed this problem. Thanx.

Parifin may help.
The clasp piece can usually be replaced too.

Good one, I'll look into that clasp. I've kept her going with bar soap and paraffin, but it's not going to last much longer. I will drape a tarp over the front until that tent is finished flowering, and then I will attempt some type of repair!

Yes, use what you can zipper wise and velcro a flap on that'll cover the area it doesn't work. If it was a veg tent it would do fine with just a flap.

a hot glue gun

Rivets or pound-in grommets give a good bite.

I’m seriously considering framing in a doorway on my 4x4 with 2 x 2? and hang a cheap hollow core door.

Just make sure when doing diy tents/grow rooms to use greenhouse/grow room plastic , why ? = grow plastic/greenhouse plastic the water won’t retain and they are waterproof like panada film and similiar . 10+ years ago I did my flower room v1 in all framed board + hardware store black plastic = it made outside aka Lung room high rh and promote moldy zone… it’s not like price is worth skipping getting grow grade
