How to Mount A Growing Tent

Before installing our growing tent, we should disinfect and use pesticides to avoid pests such as aphids, spider mites or the emergence of fungus. It will help to clean every wall window, floor and walls as your first step.

Afterwards, you will start building the backbone of the structure, composed of plastic fitting and aluminium tubes is an easy indicated step easy to follow. After that, you will have to unfold the tent at the same time you open zips and sides. Find the spot where you want to place it, and put it on top.

Once you have built it, cover the structure with its tent fabric. We recommend that you check the zips and make sure they are all zipped up correctly. 

Immediately you start installing the extractor and intrator. Your first by installing the power cord and placing the extractors support.  Secondly, you fix it to the tent's ceiling with ropes or flanges. Lastly check the extractor works correctly.

The following steps on building our tent is the odor control filter, which you should decide whether you add it from the start or its 12/12 photoperiod. It's really easy to add, as you only have to attach a meter aluminium tube to the filter's mouth with duct tape. After doing this you will fix it to the tents ceiling and the outer part of the tube in the extractors mouth.

Consequently, you will add another aluminium tube from the extractor to the closest window, with the objective to get rid of the stale air. It's time to add your lighting kit or lamp, which we recommend the use of Easy Roller pulleys to modify the lamps height. In order to completely finish our build, you should install our ventilator supported by ropes, flanges or pegs; an analog timer to select the photoperiod, and a thermo hygrometer to measure the temperature and humidity of our grow.
