A grow tent allows you to have an indoor garden to make up for your lack of outdoor space. When I first decided I wanted to set up a grow tent I was in a quandary as to what size grow tent for 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 20 plants?

What Size Tent For Any Other Number Of Plants?

As you’ve probably realized by now, marijuana plants can be a lot of different sizes. And that is something you control. We’ll cover that in a minute. First we wanted to give you standard guidelines to go by, if you’ve got a specific number of plants that was not already covered above.

In general, if you are growing using the Sea Of Green technique, each plant will take up about 1 square foot of space. That means a 5×5 tent (25 square feet) can hold 25 plants. Naturally, the plants could be smaller or larger than this, if you prefer, but 1 square foot is a good benchmark to use.

If you are growing a medium sized plant, you can figure on 4 square feet per plant. This means one will fill a 2×2 tent and a 4×4 tent (16 square feet) can hold 4 of these cannabis plants. A huge plant can take 16 square feet and thus fit perfectly into a 4×4 grow tent on its own.

To figure out the tent size you need, simply multiply the number of plants by the square footage of each plant. For example, 4 medium sized plants take up 4 square feet each, for a total of 16 square feet. So you need a tent that has 16 square feet of space, which is a 4 by 4 tent.

Obviously, you won’t always find the perfect tent size, so you just want to get one that will have sufficient space. It could have less square footage, too. That just means you’d have to keep the plants a bit smaller.

For example, if you have 5 medium sized plants, they would need 20 square feet of space (5 times 4). You won’t generally find a 5×4 tent and you certainly won’t find a 2×10. But you can find a 5×5, which has more space than you need, but would work well for 5 plants.

Tips for Using Your Grow Tent (No Matter What Size)

There are so many options when it comes to purchasing a growing tent. The tent’s size is a huge factor in what you will be able to do with the tent. In the situation of a growing tent, it is advised to start small. Give yourself time to grow into the craft of indoor gardening before you jump into a large-scale growing operation (or into buying any massive grow tents).

Here are some other tips for taking care of the plants in your grow tent:

Take time to care for your plants. When plants are in a growing tent, it may be easy to forget about caring for them as often as you might outside. Ensure you are paying enough attention to their health and providing proper water and nutrients to the soil. This will ensure you have a flourishing crop.

Rotate your plants if you have them on shelves. If you opt to place plants on shelves in the growing tent, you may need to rotate them to ensure they are getting an equal amount of light each day. This is particularly important if you have plants that are growing more widely on the top. They could potentially shadow the plants below.

Have fun and enjoy farming indoors all year long. No matter what climate you live in, growing tents will provide you with the option of having fresh vegetables year-round. Take time to enjoy the process of growing and harvesting your one food year-round.

Put the plants on an automatic timer for lighting. Putting your plants on a lighting timer can help keep the lighting in the grow tent consistent for flowering and can also prevent you from forgetting to turn the lights on.
