Grow Tents: What Size Do I Need

You might be a new grower or you might be an experienced grower, either way, grow tents cant be tricky. There are so many different brands and sizes on the market these days. So, which one do you need? Let us help you decide

First, measure the length, width and height of the space where you are wanting to set up the grow tent.

Keep in mind that the tent should be smaller than the room to allow for easy setup and maintenance.

Also, think about what your gardening goals are...
