Can you use the sun shade and the tent at the same time or do they share the same poles?

They share the same poles but can be used at the same time or separately the sun shade is also the rain fly.

They use the same ploes. You put up the poles then the tent attaches to the poles and the sun shade goes over the top.

The tent holds up the poles and vice versa. The framework is a bit wobbly without the tent but you could probably use the guide wires to make it work. I have not tried it though.

Cannot answer. I bought my tents for my children. It is part of their emergency kits and they have not had the opportunity to use it as of yet. When they do, they will let me know. I bought a tent form coleman similar to this and you definately need 2 people. Someone has to be on the opposite side when you pop the poles up. Can't possibly see how one person can do this!

One can but it's more difficult. To get this tent up with one person, you prop up one pole with a tree branch or equivalent, then get the second one up, and proceed. You'll understand as you go along but again, the trick is to prop up one pole with a stick as get the second pole up.

You can, but it's not specifically built to support that. I would suggest supporting each leg of your tent, instead of just the four corners.

Yes. Give youeself a good 2 hrs to set it up though. Poles do not hold up well in windy confitions. It wad still cheaper than s rental though.

I am not sure which poles you are talking about...The poles that run through the canopy are tent like poles with the little stretchy cord inside and they metal connecters between each section of pole. The poles that support the safety net are probably a little bit more sturdy. Either way, I think that you could put a tarp on top of it. Good luck though. Our canopy has had problems withstanding any sort of wind at all. We have purchased 2 and the 2nd one is not up because we are afraid it will rip again... it has already been torn and repaired once. I wouldn't buy this item.

I agree with the other comment. You may be able to fit one regular height chair in the middle of the tent, but I don't think two would work.

Yes just like a tent but let me warn you the one I purchased for my son for Xmas is in pieces from the wind not very durable.

The rain fly (all of the orange) is staked into the ground all over, so that would not work. If you set it up without the rain fly it would just be a netted dome, completely see through. If you still wanted to do that I THINK it would stand ...there are just two poles criss-crossing the tent, they create tension when you put the end of the poles into holes on the each corner of the tent....I'm pretty sure it stood before we staked it into the ground....can't be sure, haven't set it up in a few months....

Sure you can, it has rings in all corners so you can put poles to stick to the ground. I did and in very heavy winds nothing happens. My tent and my canopy blow away but the cabana hold it.

As long as the wind isn't blowing. If it is windy, I would bring water jugs to fill and put in the corners. I did not stake my tent on nights I knew would be nice and the tent did not shift position. I also stayed in a couple "parking lots" and had no problems. But then again, I had a large dog to hold it down. LOL

We put two side by side. There will be a row of poles down the middle but it was easy to work around. They were not actually "joined" but some white duct tape made it pretty secure. When you put them size by side you won't be using a set of side panels for each tent. The big 40x40 space was awesome!

Yes, as long as you first stake the corners of the floor of the tent. Then, the rest is easy. I put up my tent on a sand surface so I bought longer stakes and used the ones that came with the tent for the rain fly.

Absolutely, yes. Received this tent about a month ago and have used it twice.

The poles are made out of aluminum. You could drill holes if you wanted to. My husband says he would not recommend it in high wind by itself. We tied each side down with straps to water barrels and it held up great. It's a good tent but it doesn't come with anything to hold it down. You will need to purchase those materials seperatley.

Can I use these in conjunction with my t5 fluorescents at the same time in the same grow tent during the flowering cycle.

They are already hotter than the sun, so probably not. You could of course use your own lights with the light tent, but I think the point of this particular kit is the convenience of buying an okay photo tent with some okay lights at a cheap price and all at once.
