Grow tent: 240 x 120CM

The optimal tent for your indoor growth will always be context-dependent on your lights and space. Ideally, you want to get as much space as you can within the purview of your light. A grow tent is a portable, reusable grow room made of a sturdy canvas exterior and will usually have reflective interior material to increase the effectiveness of its built-in grow lights.

It offers insulation to retain the heat that the grow lights produce while stimulating plant growth. A grow tent allows you to recreate nature under your very own conditions. Grow tents are available in different shapes and sizes to accommodate different needs. 

Smaller grow tents are available for horticulturists looking to grow just a few plants, while larger ones are for those growing a full garden throughout the year.

Grow Light: LED Lights

Your grow light is the most important part of your growth. In nature, the sun grows your plants. Grow lights are responsible for simulating the sun, both in terms of spectrum and intensity. After you have chosen a grow tent, you will need to choose your lighting technology. Which one of the lights is best for you depends on your goals as a grower. A lot of it comes down to budget as well.

The New Generation of LED grows lights are compact and robust enough to be used in small and exposed spaces. There is no need for ballasts or reflectors. What is more, LED units remain efficient even after years of use – and they last for a very, very long time.

Light output per watt is about twice that of alternative sources, meaning huge electricity savings over time. Energy loss to heat is low, so you can save on ventilation and cooling systems. A LED unit can maintain almost 100% of its original peak output throughout a lifetime of up to 80,000 hours (over 9 years of continuous use). 

Traditional bulbs last only a quarter of that time, and they retain peak output for only the first 3,000-6,000 hours (4 – 8 months). And, last but not the least, LED enables configurable full-spectrum output, making it the perfect grow light for seedlings, clones, vegetation, and flowers.

Ventilation

Ventilation can consist of a carbon filter, ducting, and an inline fan. These will help you manage heat and humidity in the grow tent, while simultaneously controlling odours. If you want to take things a step further, you can add an intake system. This will help bring in the fresh air and more importantly, CO2, when you expel old air.

You also need at least one clip-on fan to help circulate air and “make your plants dance”. Depending on the size of your tent, you may want a couple of these. Keeping the air circulating in your tent will strengthen stems, keep temps and odours lower, and help discourage pest and disease development.
