Pros of Growing Cannabis in a Grow Tent

• Relatively Cheap – Prices are around $70-150 for your average grow tent. Setting up a grow space to have all the same characteristics (reflective walls, air-tight vents, light proof, a waterproof  tray at the bottom to catch spilled water, etc.) can easily cost the same amount or more. Plus it’s difficult to DIY a space so that it works as well as a grow tent (which has been designed for this purpose) and it will often take more time, planning and effort than simply buying a pre-made tent.
• Easy & Quick to Set Up – Assembling your grow tent and getting completely set up to start growing will take about an afternoon and can be done by just about anyone . Overall, the work of setting up a grow tent reminds me of putting together an old-fashioned camping tent, only weed comes out of it a few months later!
• Stealth – A grow tent prevents smells and light from escaping the tent when set up properly, and can be tucked away in a big closet or the corner of a room without necessarily drawing a whole lot of attention.
• Perpetual Harvest – Grow tents work very well if you want to keep two separate grow spaces, for example if you wanted a separate vegetative and flowering chamber for a perpetual harvest. Grow tents create a completely self-enclosed environment that can be managed separately.
• Helps Prevent Bugs – The intake holes of most grow tents are covered with mesh, which allow air to pass but stops many insects. This helps prevent incidental bugs like spiders or carpenter beetles from getting to your plants. A grow tent with strong grow lights is also a pretty hot and inhospitable environment for many cannabis pests!
• Keeps Buds Clean – In addition to preventing bugs from getting on your plants, the mesh intake holes help keep out dust and impurities. The sticky trichomes on cannabis buds are surprisingly good at holding on to fibers, animal hair and anything that floats by. A surprising amount of random debris can get onto your buds even if you keep your grow room pristine. A grow tent helps keep buds clean and looking good!

How much space do you have?

Before buying a grow tent, you need to know your growing area and the size of tent that will physically fit in it.

Buy a grow tent that’s too big and you could end up paying more than you need for heating, lighting and other hydroponic equipment.

Choose one that’s too small and it could get overcrowded, creating an environment that’s not right for mature plants.

What hydroponic equipment will you use?

Most grow tents and systems are flexible, so you can go up in size if needed. But it’s worth factoring in extra space for grow lights, heaters, humidife. If you want to grow 2 plant, A 120W LED grow light may suit for you.

How many grow tents do you need?

Usually, most people only need one grow tent. For optimum results, we recommend using two – one for propagation and one for the vegetative growth and flowering stage. If you are a beginner, you can consider grow tent kits.

What budget do you have?

No matter what size you want, your budget will always determine the grow tent you choose. Cheap grow tents may cost less, but spending a bit more can often mean it lasts longer and produces more crops – making it a better long-term investment.

THC growers often cultivate pot plants in a wide variety of sizes – from small seedlings to heavy-yielding grows.

To determine the total amount of space you’ll need in a grow tent, a good rule of thumb is to provide 10 litres of soil for every foot of plant height.

Don’t forget to leave a bit of extra breathing space too!

The most commonly available grow bags are 25 litres and 50 litres. But a plant’s branches will probably grow around 13cm to 15cm beyond the edge (on all sides).

Once you’ve decided what to do with your layout, it’s time to figure out which grow tent size (and shape) is right for your space.

The grow tent’s manufacturer is the best authority on grow tent sizing and this can usually be found in the detailed product description.

Based on a rough estimate of 120cm2 of space per plant (using a 15 litre or 30 litre grow bag), the following guidelines show how many plants you could grow.
