Question 1

1. Is it legal to buy grow tents?

Accepted Answer

It is legal to buy grow tents as they can be used for growing a number of different kinds of plants and vegetables indoors. However, there might be a legal issue if you plan on growing marijuana inside the grow tents. Different places have different laws - even in places where weed is legal, you might not be allowed to grow it at home, or even if that is allowed there might be a certain limit to how much weed can be grown at home. Make sure you’re following all the legal guidelines while growing cannabis indoors.

Question 2

2. How big should my grow tent be?

Accepted Answer

The grow tent size is measured in X x Y x Z - usually length x breadth x height where the length and the breadth are normally the same while the height is usually a larger number. (For example 4x4x6, 6x6x8, 8x8x12, 10x10x12 etc). When you arrange your pots you will know exactly how much space is being occupied by each plant and you can buy a grow tent accordingly. It is recommended that you leave at least 0.5 x 0.5 sq ft of area free in your grow tent for better management and for your ease of access. It is based on these calculations that you can know which will be a suitable grow tent for you.

Question 3

3. Why are grow tents reflective on the inside?

Accepted Answer

Grow tents are reflective on the inside because they have a reflective layer (usually mylar - about 95-99% reflective) lined on the inside. This will help ensure that the light that comes out of the grow light can be used to its maximum possible efficiency and that the plant can benefit out of it. This layer ensures that all the light bounces back towards the plant and from all the different angles, ensuring the plant gets optimal lighting, therefore a bigger and a better growth and higher yields.

Question 4

4. Which is the best type of lighting for grow tents?

Accepted Answer

When it comes to the best lighting, it is always recommended to go for LED grow lights as they have become a modern standard. Almost every grower these days has been using LED lights to ensure that they are getting good quality lighting experience as well as saving on the electricity cost. Moreover, using LED lights also ensures that the heat generated is lesser as well. Full-spectrum LED lights provide a kind of lighting which is very similar to the natural sunlight and can help sustain a plant through all the phases of its growth. Lastly, LED grow lights can last you for over 100,000 hours so at least 8 to 10 years of usage is sorted!

Question 5

5. How to clean your grow tents?

Accepted Answer

Growing marijuana, or any type of plant indoors, is quite troublesome for growers because there might be a lot of cleaning up to do. There’s soil and water which causes a lot of spillage. Plant foliage might also fall off. One thing to keep in mind when you are working with grow tents is that you must always get a grow tent which has a floor tray (almost all tents these days have it). These floor trays need to be removed every few days and cleaned up. Also make sure you’re not providing too much water to your plant and that you haven’t filled the pots with soil right up to the brim. Taking care of these little things will ensure that you don’t have to put in too much effort to clean and maintain your grow tents.
