    Default Grow Tent Size

    After my last plant had to fight for space with my boiler, I've decided to look into buying a grow tent. After a little research, I learned the 80 x 80 x 160 would apparently house two mature plants. This is ideal for the space I have, but I can't help thinking it would be too small.

    I'm growing an auto at the moment, but I will be moving on to photos going forwards. Will I need a taller, wider tent? I'll be growing two plants max.

    Cheers!

    Yeah, imo that would be a bit small. Remember to figure the height of the pots
    and the light hanging down. That will eat a lot of headroom.

    That's what I was thinking. How tall would you go?

    Take a look at Domo's thread: Link Here

    2 mature autos fit perfectly in his 2x4 tent. And he grows em to size!

    Sounds like this might be what you're after.

    If you're going photo, that size might be good for one plant in a scrog. Should keep the hight down?

    I just checked them out and they come in at 6' 11" and are pretty pricey. Definitely worth considering for the future, though. Thanks.

    Yeah, good idea. It would beat cutting the top off all the time lol. Cheers.

    My best advice would be to go has big as you can. We always end up wanting/needing more room.
