VIVOSUN 2 in 1 Indoor Grow Tent VS MARS HYDRO 2-in-1 Grow Tent 36''x24''x55'' Grow Tents

Almost entire indoor growers understand how to regulate growing conditions when farming in a greenhouse, hydroponics farming, or at a growing space where it becomes pertinent to adjust conditions that plants love to grow. Similarly, the grow rooms and the grow tents are the best options that allow growers to create conditions that plants require for optimum growth. However, it becomes more advantageous for the hobbyist and new growers to adjust the internal environment in a small or a confined space such as a grow tent of a small or medium capacity.

The only challenge they face is the selection of a grow tent. This selection becomes easier if they understand the relation between the plant spacing and their square foot lighting needs that plants absorb using their canopy. Humidity and the temperature come next. Only after knowing the three basic requirements for growing indoors, it becomes much easier to decide the size of a grow tent that either they need two room grow tent or they could proceed with 2 in 1 grow tent option.

What are the benefits of growing Plants in a two-room grow tent?

Normally when you grow Plants indoors, the process starts at germination. From germination it moves on to the seedling stage and then it begins to mature from being a seedling to a full-grown plant. All these are different stages of the plant’s life cycle and require different lighting conditions! Hence, growers need to grow them all separately as the same lighting condition cannot be used for these modes. A two room grow tent allows the growers to adjust different kinds of light setups for plants in different stages of their life cycle and they all can grow inside the same tent but in different ‘rooms’.

How Does a 2 in 1 Tent Increase Your Yields?

When plants are growing in vegetative mode, they need 16 hours of light per day.

When your plant is growing buds in flowering mode, it only needs 12 hours of light per day.

Because of these differences in light needs, it’s impossible to grow 2 plants in the same space. You must separate your veg plants from your flower plants.

So if you want to get quicker turn around times on your grow cycles and bump up your yields, you need to be able to have 1 section of your tent for flowering and a separate section for vegetative mode.

And in case you were wondering, I didn’t go with a 2 in 1 grow tent. I actually bought a separate grow tent so I can have 2 full grow operations happening at the same time.

One of the limits to a 2 in 1 grow tent is that the “2 in 1” area is much smaller than a normal tent. It’s basically only for the first 4 weeks of life when your plant is getting started in vegetative mode. After that, you’re expected to move it to the larger area of the tent.

VIVOSUN 2 in 1 Indoor Grow Tent

Features:

The VIVOSUN grow tent allows your plants a boosted growth during vegetative and flowering. The third room provides space for the propagation of seeds. That means a single grow tent meets the growth requirements during all stages. Canvas quality also supports the offered price for a durable and flexible fabric that supports strongly built metal poles made up of frivolous aluminum for holding the weight of canvas. Another common issue that often observes with grow tents is their complex assemblage, which VIVOSUN resolves with easy installation procedures that take hardly fifteen minutes to assemble and disassemble without using any professional tool kit. Quality SBS Zippers make it easy for the growers to use them freely without worrying as they are free to operate, easy running, and grips are strong enough to grasp in the fingers.

What should you consider before you buy a two-room grow tent?

There are four basic factors that you need to take care of before you decide which grow tent you are going to buy:

Canvas: How thick is the canvas is very important for you to know because if the canvas has thin walls — light will leak out, and the lights between the two ‘rooms’ of the tent will also start interfering in the growth of the plants. All grow tents listed in our list have the Oxford 600D canvas which is one of the best that you can get hold of!

Durability: Grow tents, and especially two room grow tents, need to be very durable because a lot of stuff such as grow lights, carbon filters, clip-on fans, etc. are hung upon them and they need to be able to carry all that weight without the risk of a collapse.

Size: The size of the grow tent is important. Growers must know how many plants they are going to grow and how much space will they be occupying. Based on that a grow tent needs to be decided which will accommodate all their plants. Growers also need to know that the ‘nursery’ chamber will occupy a portion of the overall size of the grow room!

Reflectiveness: The inner surface needs to be very reflective so that all the light bounces on to the plants. All the two room grow tents on our list are between 95 to 100% reflective which is a great stat for a grow tent.
