    Building You're Indoor Grow Set Up

    in Growmor Hydroponics Forum

    Step 1. Find a suitable setup space (spare room, garage, etc)

    Step 2. Make your space light-tight

    Step 3. Choose how to configure your space (e.g. tent, entire room or cupboard within a room)

    Step 4. Get good light coverage in your setup

    Step 5. Set up suitable air exchange


    Step 1: Find A Space Here's what you should think about with every grow room setup: Is It Big Enough? Almost any space can be used as for grow room setup. You can either convert a whole room or cupboard into a grow room, or use a grow tent. Are You Near A Power Supply? For a one light or two light set up, a couple of normal double wall sockets will be fine. You can always use an extension lead if you need to. Are You Near A Water Source? You should never use unfiltered rain water - you never know what you're feeding plants. The best water you can use is pure, filtered water. Read more on the importance of water here. Will Noise Be An Issue? Lights, pumps and your fan can make some noise. Bear this in mind with your setup. What’s The Flooring Like? Don't grow straight onto carpeted floors. They hold moisture (spillages!) and harbor bugs and bacteria. You can put reflective sheeting down, or grow in a tent.

    Step 2: Create A Light Tight Environment If there’s a small window or natural light source in your grow room setup, block it off or light trap the area with Total Blackout Reflective Sheeting.


    Reflective sheeting does two great things. Firstly, it stops light escaping Secondly, it keeps natural light out of your setup. This way it doesn't interfere with your lighting cycle. Plants get confused and stressed if they're exposed to light on an inconsistent basis…like you would be if your room suddenly illuminated in the middle of the night!
