How to choose your indoor grow tent?
Before purchasing a grow tent, ask yourself three key questions:
- How much space do you have available? Measure your growing area carefully: a common mistake is choosing a grow tent that's too large for the space.
- How many plants do you want to grow? For example, an 80x80 cm grow tent can usually hold up to six 7 L pots.
- What's your budget and experience level? The most expensive wardrobe isn't always the best fit; sometimes a basic one is enough to get started.
Common sizes and capacities
- Small (60×60×140 cm): ideal for 1–2 plants or discreet crops.
- Medium (100×100×200 cm): perfect for 4–6 plants with stable production.
- Large (120x120x200 cm or more): designed for advanced growers and abundant harvests.
Important technical details
Based on the experience of hundreds of customers and growers, these are the factors that really matter:
- Reflective material: Look for Mylar with 95% reflection to optimize light.
- Structure: metal tubes of at least 16 mm guarantee stability and resistance.
- Ventilation: Make sure it has openings for the extractor, intractor, and electrical cables.
- Accessories: Compatible with carbon filters, LED lighting, and irrigation systems.
