Delivery and Shipping

Shipping Policy

Shipping is expensive, and it gets more expensive almost every year. We are not going to pretend otherwise. What we can tell you is that we work hard to find the most reliable and affordable way to get your order to you, and we pass along free shipping wherever it makes sense.

Free shipping on any order with two or more items. The one exception is bulk items, meaning the large or heavy products that have to move by freight or oversized parcel. If your cart qualifies, free shipping is applied automatically at checkout.

Why two items and not a dollar amount?

Most stores set free shipping at a dollar threshold. That works when you sell light things like clothing. We don't. We ship soil, amendments, and heavy real goods that are expensive and awkward to move, so a dollar minimum doesn't reflect what shipping actually costs us.

We are a small business with no outside financial backing, and we are not Amazon. We manufacture, pack, and ship everything in house so we can control quality, which means real people picking, boxing, taping, and labeling every order, and that means real jobs. When we ship a single item for free, the only way to cover it is to raise prices across the board, and we would rather not do that. Asking for two or more items on free orders lets us keep prices lower for everyone and keep shipping sustainable. We hate high shipping costs as much as you do, and this is the fairest way we have found to keep them down.

Carriers

We ship with FedEx, UPS, and USPS, and we pick the carrier that gets your order to you reliably at the best cost. We cannot guarantee a specific carrier unless you arrange it with us ahead of time.

PO Boxes

Orders to PO Boxes often cost more and usually do not qualify for free shipping. Use a physical address to avoid delays and added fees.

Outside the Continental US

We ship to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the US Virgin Islands. Free shipping generally does not apply to large or bulky items going to these destinations, though Hawaii and Alaska have more flexibility depending on carrier policy. Rates are quoted at checkout or on request.

Canada

We ship select items to Canada. Canadian customers need to choose "UPS Standard Shipping to Canada" at checkout so your order clears customs cleanly and you avoid surprise brokerage fees. Orders placed with other methods can be delayed or rejected at the border.

Vendor-Fulfilled Items

Some products ship directly from our vendor partners and show their own estimated ship dates on the product page. Questions about these go to support@buildasoil.com.

Freight Shipments

Freight orders arrive on pallets by box truck or semi. We assume you need liftgate service unless you tell us otherwise.

Inspect every freight shipment before you sign. Count the packages and check for damage. Signing the delivery receipt confirms the order arrived complete and undamaged, so note any problem on the receipt before you sign it.

Full Truckloads

Full truckload (FTL) orders are custom quoted after checkout based on your location, order volume, and how the truck will be unloaded.

  • Let us know if you have a dock, forklift, or other unloading equipment.
  • Tell us if you need liftgate or manual unload service.
  • Email support@buildasoil.com ahead of time for an FTL quote.
Order Tracking

We email tracking as soon as your order ships. If it does not arrive, check buildasoil.aftership.com with your order details, or email support@buildasoil.com.

Shipping Protection

This optional add-on at checkout covers your shipment against loss, theft, and damage, and we fast-track those claims for replacement or resolution. Even with protection, photos and documentation help us move carrier claims along faster.

Claims

Send all claims to support@buildasoil.com. We do not process claims by phone.

Include:

  • A description of the issue
  • Photos or video of the damage, or of missing or incorrect items
  • Images of the packaging and labels

Hold onto the packaging and any damaged items until the claim is resolved, since carriers may require an inspection.

Claim deadlines

  • Damage or missing items: within 60 days of delivery
  • Incorrect products: within 60 days of shipment
  • Lost or misdelivered packages: within 60 days of shipment
Once Your Order Leaves Our Facility

We help with every carrier claim we can. But once an order is in the carrier's hands, we cannot control delays, damage, or misdelivery, and the carrier makes the final call on claims.

Description

Grand Master LEDs Tarantula Tent Ultimate

The best light for a home grow tent

Most tent lights sit well inside the tent walls, so the plants in the middle get the most light and the corners fall behind. The Tent Ultimate reaches almost wall to wall, packs its bars close together, and adds extra light along the edges, so the plants in the corners keep up with the ones in the center. It is the most even light we have found for a home grower running a 4x4 or 5x5, and it connects to the AC Infinity controller you may already own.

2,098µmol/s from the 4x4 at 750 W
2,820µmol/s from the 5x5 at 1,000 W
AC Infinitycontroller compatible
5 yearsmanufacturer warranty

Even coverage

Edges and corners

In a tent, the corners are where most lights come up short. Three design choices close that gap.

Reach

Nearly wall to wall

The fixture is built to the inside size of the tent, about 1.5 inches short of the walls on each side. Most lights stop much farther in.

Spacing

Tight bar spacing

The bars sit close together and evenly spaced across the whole fixture, so there are no bright stripes and dark gaps across the canopy.

Edges

Extra light on the edges

Light falls off near the walls in any tent. The Tent Ultimate adds extra light along the outer edges to balance that out.

Build quality

The best-built light we have carried

We have worked with a lot of grow lights over the years. The Tent Ultimate has the best fit and finish of any of them, and it is not close, even next to the competitors selling today. You notice it the moment you open the box, and again when the light bars click into the frame with no fiddling.

It is also IP66 rated against dust and water spray and ETL Listed, and Grand Master backs it with a 5 year warranty.

Efficacy is how much plant-usable light comes out per watt from the wall. At 2.76 µmol/J, every joule of electricity becomes 2.76 micromoles of light.

Setup

Getting it running

Step 1

Click it together

The light bars click right into the frame bars, then it plugs in and is ready to run. One person can hang it, but it is safer with two. The manual for your size is linked in the documents section below.

Step 2

Hang at 12 to 18 inches

Measure from the top of the canopy, not the soil. Raise the light as plants grow to hold that distance.

Step 3

Set intensity

Use the knob, or connect it to your AC Infinity controller with AC Infinity's UIS Type-A lighting adapter (sold separately) to schedule and dim it with the rest of your tent. Start lower for young plants and turn it up as they establish.

Power use

What it costs to run

Worked at full power and $0.15 per kWh. Dimmed, the light draws less. To run the numbers with your own electric rate and schedule, use our free grow light cost calculator.

Schedule 4x4 at 750 W 5x5 at 1,000 W
Flower, 12 hours a day 9.0 kWh a day, about $40.50 a month 12.0 kWh a day, about $54.00 a month
Veg, 18 hours a day 13.5 kWh a day, about $60.75 a month 18.0 kWh a day, about $81.00 a month

Fill the tent

Containers and soil sized for 4x4 and 5x5

A light this even rewards a full canopy. These kits are built to the same tent sizes.

Questions

Tent Ultimate FAQ

Which size do I need?

Match the light to the tent. A 4x4 tent takes the 4x4 light and a 5x5 tent takes the 5x5. The 5x5 fixture is 56.7 inches wide and will not fit in a 48 inch tent.

Will it work with my controller?

Yes, if you run AC Infinity. Connect the light to your AC Infinity controller with AC Infinity's UIS Type-A lighting adapter, then schedule and dim it alongside your fans. The adapter is sold by AC Infinity and most grow stores. It also works with the Grand Master Controller.

Does it come with a 120 V or 240 V cord?

Lights ship with a 120 V cord. If you need 240 V, tell us before you place your order and we will send it with a 240 V cord.

Request a 240 V cord
How high do I hang it?

12 to 18 inches above the top of the canopy. Use the knob to bring intensity down for seedlings and clones.

Can it handle tent humidity?

The fixture is rated IP66 for dust and water spray, so normal tent humidity and a stray splash while watering are not a problem.

Who handles warranty claims?

Both sizes carry a 5 year warranty from Grand Master. Start with us and we will help you through it. The full warranty policy is linked in the documents section.

Do you offer pricing on 10 or more lights?

Yes. Send us the size and quantity and we will put together a quote.
