What equipment is needed for indoor marijuana cultivation?
1. Grow room or grow tent
Grow tent: About 2×2, up to 4×4, depending on the line of sight. Planting tents provide independent light dense space. grow tents also can help protect plants from pests. and help you control the smell from plants and reduce the loss of light.
3. Grow light (LED):
To grow cannabis successfully, one of the best growing facilities is the efficient grow lights. The lights are energy-saving and easy to use. Here, if you want to plant one or two plants, you must get an LED growlight with an actual power of at least 64 watts.
The cheapest is HPS / MH (high pressure sodium / metal halide). The small tent is 250 watts and the large tent is up to 1000 watts. These lights generate a lot of heat, so if you’re in a warm climate, I’ll choose another option
Obviously, CMH (ceramic metal halide) is a great 315 watt choice with excellent growth efficiency. It may be a good choice for individual plants and 3×3 tents,
LED: them are great! They emit significantly less heat, but at a higher price. Well, it’s very lasting. Almost all LED Grow Light with dimmer with contoller, then you can setup the time.
Among all the lighting options mentioned above, the wattage is directly related to the result. Overall, more watts = more final weight
4. Exhaust fan / carbon filter combination, plus rheostat: the fan is very important for discharging heat from a small space, and the carbon filter has a good control effect on odor during growth. Rheostat allows you to control the speed of the fan: sometimes slower speeds can make the carbon filter work more effectively.
5. Trimmer:
Another excellent device is the trimmer. With a set of beautiful and sharp trimmers, it will be faster to trim and harvest cannabis plants when necessary.
6. spray bottle
Do you plan to use foliar feed or spray plants? If so, you need a spray bottle.
7. Protective glasses
Ultraviolet rays produced by most light are very harmful to the eyes. Therefore, you need to buy glasses for the growth room to protect your eyes from the unhealthy light of this growing lamp.
8. Small swing fan for moving air in tent
9. Containers and media: there are many options, but a simple way to start is to fill a 5-7 gallon jar or cloth bag with good organic soil.
Growing indoors is satisfying but requires controlling the temperature, light exposure, and humidity. An indoor grow tent should make growing indoors easy.
