Wipe the lining with a damp cloth. Lift the floor tray out to empty and rinse it rather than mopping inside the tent. Let the fabric dry fully before folding it away, or it will hold a smell.

About this product
A room inside a room, with the light kept in.
600D Oxford fabric on a powder coated steel frame, with a reflective lining and ports for lights, fans and cables.
A grow tent gives an indoor grow its own enclosed space. The lining keeps your light in, the ports let air and cables through, and the tray catches whatever you spill.
This is the smaller of the two sizes: 1.2m square and 2m tall. It suits a single light over one system rather than a room full of them.
The reflective lining is the part that pays for itself. A grow light throws light in every direction and a plain wall absorbs most of what misses the plants. A Mylar lining in the region of 95 to 98 percent reflective puts a good deal of that back.
Five vent ports and two mesh intakes at floor level give you somewhere to run extraction and let cool air in low down. Two cord ports keep the cabling tidy rather than trapped in a zip.
Three support bars run across the top for hanging lights and fans. The frame is powder coated steel with plastic corner connectors and pushes together without tools.
The floor tray lifts out. That matters the first time a reservoir overflows or a pump joint lets go, which is the situation the tray exists for.

It gives an indoor grow its own enclosed space. The lining keeps your light on the plants, the ports let you run extraction and cables, and the tray catches spills. It also keeps the grow visually and physically separate from the room it is in.
WHAT SIZE IS THIS ONE?
1.2m wide, 1.2m deep and 2m tall. That is the smaller of the two sizes we sell. The other is 1.5m square and the same height.
WHICH SIZE SHOULD I CHOOSE?
The 1.2m suits one light over one system. The 1.5m gives you room to walk around a system, run a second light, or keep a propagation tray beside the main grow. If you are in any doubt and the space allows it, people rarely regret the larger one.
IS ANYTHING INCLUDED BESIDES THE TENT?
No. This is the enclosure. Lights, fans, ducting, filters and the hydroponic system itself are all separate purchases.
WHAT IS IT MADE FROM?
600D Oxford fabric, double stitched, over a powder coated steel frame with heavy duty PP corner connectors. The inside is lined with reflective Mylar.
HOW REFLECTIVE IS THE LINING?
The supplier states 95 to 98 percent. In practice that means light which would otherwise be absorbed by a wall gets bounced back towards the plants, so you get more out of the light you have already paid to run.
DOES IT LEAK LIGHT?
It is built not to. The fabric is double stitched and there is a wide flap inside the zip so the seam is not a direct line out. No tent is perfect, but a well zipped one in a dark room shows very little.
HOW MANY VENT PORTS DOES IT HAVE?
Five vent ports, plus two micro mesh ports at ground level for air intake and two cord ports for cabling. The mesh on the low intakes keeps insects out while letting cool air in.
DO I NEED A FAN?
For anything beyond a very small grow, yes. A closed tent with a light in it heats up and the air goes stale. An extraction fan pulling air out of the top and cool air coming in at the mesh ports is the usual arrangement.
CAN I HANG A LIGHT INSIDE IT?
Yes. Three support bars run across the top for exactly that. They also take fans. Check the weight of your light against what the bars are holding rather than assuming.
HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO PUT UP?
It goes together without tools. The frame poles push into the corner connectors and the fabric slips over the finished frame. It is easier with a second pair of hands but it is not a difficult build.
WHAT IS THE FLOOR TRAY FOR?
Spills. A reservoir that overflows or a pump joint that lets go will otherwise put nutrient solution straight onto your floor. The tray lifts out so you can empty and rinse it rather than mopping inside the tent.
HOW DO I CLEAN IT?
Wipe the lining with a damp cloth and take the tray out to rinse. Let everything dry fully before folding the tent away, because fabric put away damp holds a smell.
CAN I USE IT OUTDOORS?
It is designed as an indoor tent. The fabric is not made for weather, wind or sustained sunlight, and a tall lightweight frame outdoors is asking to be blown over. Keep it inside.
DOES IT CONTAIN SMELL?
The fabric holds a lot in on its own. If smell is the main reason you are buying it, the tent alone is not the whole answer: extraction through a carbon filter is what actually does that job, and neither is included here.
WILL A 36 CUP HYDROPONIC KIT FIT INSIDE?
The 36 cup kit is 98 x 108 cm at the base, so it fits inside a 1.2m square tent but with very little room to move around it. If you want space to work, the 1.5m tent is the better pairing.
WILL THE 108 CUP SYSTEM FIT?
Not in this one. The 108 cup system is 140 cm wide, which is wider than a 1.2m tent and wider than the 1.5m too. That system is designed to stand in a room rather than inside a tent.
WHAT LIGHT SHOULD I PUT IN IT?
Something matched to the footprint. Our LED grow light strips link together in a series, which suits a square tent because you can lay out even coverage rather than having one bright spot in the middle.
HOW HOT DOES IT GET INSIDE?
That depends entirely on your light and your ventilation, not on the tent. LEDs run cooler than older lighting, and an extraction fan makes far more difference than anything about the fabric.
CAN I PUT IT ON CARPET?
Yes, and the floor tray is what makes that reasonable. It is still worth putting something under the whole tent if the carpet matters to you, because the tray catches what lands inside the tent and not what runs out of a door.
IS THERE A WINDOW TO CHECK THE PLANTS?
It has double side view panels and three zipped doors, so you can look in without unzipping the whole front. Bear in mind that opening a viewing panel with a light running lets light out as well as letting you see in.
HOW MUCH HEADROOM DO I REALLY GET?
Two metres to the top of the frame, less whatever your light and its hangers take up. Allow a good 30 to 40 cm at the top for the light and its clearance when you are working out how tall your plants can get.
CAN I TAKE IT DOWN AND STORE IT?
Yes. The frame comes apart and the fabric folds. Dry it out first. A tent folded away damp comes out of storage smelling of it.
IS THE FRAME STRONG ENOUGH FOR A FILTER?
The bars are described as heavy duty and are meant for lights and fans. A carbon filter is heavier than either, so check the weight of yours before hanging it, and consider supporting it from the floor if it is a large one.
DOES IT COME WITH INSTRUCTIONS?
Yes, and the build is simple enough that most people have it standing before they finish reading them. The one thing worth doing carefully is getting the frame square before the fabric goes on.
CAN I RUN TWO SYSTEMS IN ONE TENT?
In the 1.2m, realistically no, not with room to work. In the 1.5m it is possible for smaller systems. The limiting factor is usually access rather than floor area.
WHAT ARE THE CORD PORTS FOR?
Running power and any control cables in without leaving a zip open. Two of them is enough for a light and a pump, with the fan usually going through a vent port.
IS IT WATERPROOF INSIDE?
The floor tray holds spills, and the fabric is not intended to be a sealed vessel. Treat it as splash tolerant with a tray underneath rather than as a waterproof box.
HOW IS IT DELIVERED?
Across Europe in 5 to 7 days after a 24 to 48 hour handling time. Free over EUR 50, otherwise EUR 22. Express delivery is available at checkout.
WHAT IF A POLE IS MISSING OR BENT?
Tell us and we will replace it. Unpack and count the frame parts when it arrives rather than on the evening you planned to build it.

What the tent is actually doing
Three things, and it helps to be clear about which is which.
It keeps your light in. A grow light throws light everywhere, and a painted wall
absorbs most of what misses the plants. The Mylar lining is stated at 95 to 98
percent reflective, so a good deal of that comes back.
It gives you somewhere to run air. Five vent ports up high, two mesh intakes at
floor level, two cord ports for cabling. That is the layout for pulling warm air
out of the top and letting cool air in low down.
And it contains the mess. The floor tray lifts out, which is the difference
between an overflowing reservoir being an annoyance and being a much worse
afternoon.
What it does not do
It is an enclosure and nothing else. There is no light in the box, no fan, no
ducting, no filter and no growing system. Those are all separate.
If you are buying it mainly to control smell, the tent on its own will not do
that job. Extraction through a carbon filter is what does, and neither part is
included here.
Choosing between the two sizes
This is the 1.2m. It takes one light over one system.
The 1.5m is the same height and gives you room to move around what is inside,
run a second light, or keep a propagation tray to one side. Our 36 cup kit is
98 x 108 cm at the base, so it will go inside this tent but with very little
space around it. The 108 cup system is 140 cm wide and does not fit either size.
Putting it up
The frame poles push into plastic corner connectors and the fabric goes over the
top. No tools. It is easier with someone holding the other end, and the one thing
worth taking time over is getting the frame square before the fabric goes on.
