Ever since we were kids, we loved going out camping, especially if there were tents involved in the whole situation. We even made our own tents from whatever we could find in our rooms.
However, today we are going to talk about a different kind of tents. We’re discussing grow tents. So, if you don’t already know what they are and where you can buy them, we advise you to keep reading this article. Let’s start.
What are grow tents?
Grow tents are pretty much similar to normal tents, except they are modified a bit so that you can grow plants inside them with maximum efficiency. The definition would be something like: A portable, reusable grow room that is made out of a sturdy canvas exterior and will usually have some kind of a reflective interior material to increase the effectiveness of the built-in grow lights.
The grow tents will provide you an enclosed space with a certain amount of grow lights (depending on what you choose to buy) and the required space to start your indoor hydroponic garden. Almost all grow tents will have some sort of isolation so that the heat produced by the grow lights is retained inside and stimulate the plant growth even further. If you are someone that had the idea to start a garden for a while now, but you couldn’t think of a good way to do it, definitely consider grabbing yourself a grow tent.

Grow tents are available in many different shapes and sizes, all coming with different features as well, so you are free to pick whatever works best for you. The smaller grow tents are available and mostly used by horticulturists that are looking to grow just a few plants for experimenting or something similar, while the extra-large versions of the grow tents are usually for people that are looking to grow a full garden throughout the winter periods. Some even come with added ventilation systems that will provide even easier access and control to the temperature inside the tent, while also increasing the air circulation. Plants are pretty delicate and require a lot of attention and good circumstances to grow.
The more high-quality grow tents usually come with advanced built-in lights (lamps) which can provide lightning that’s part of a specific part of the spectrum, so you can exactly modify them to grow a certain plant that requires exactly that type of light to succeed. They are also equipped with hydroponics systems and allow you to do some soil-free growing and efficient gardening.
A pretty important fact for grow tents is that they are completely lightproof so no external lights outside of the tent will harm your plants. It is very well-known that certain plants are really “picky” when it comes to light sources, and they can only grow if they get their most desired lightning, and nothing else interrupting.
