Grozeebo Pro

Regular grow tents have no thermal resistance. This makes it difficult to keep the temperature and humidity inside the tent different from the temperature and humidity outside the tent. Air conditioners, heaters, humidifiers, and dehumidifiers can be used to help impact interior environmental conditions, but they will have to run constantly and may not have enough power to reach and maintain the desired temperature and humidity. Plants cannot reach their full potential and may even die if their ideal range of environmental conditions are not provided.

Grozeebo Pro wall and roof panels contain 3.5 inch rigid EPS insulation and have a thermal resistance of R15. This creates a barrier between the inside and outside of the grow environment, and makes it easier than ever to give plants the environmental conditions they need to thrive. Air conditioners, heaters, humidifiers, and dehumidifiers function more efficiently, pull less power, and last longer. Plants will grow faster, healthier, and provide higher yields.

Temperature, humidity, and vapor pressure deficit influence many plant processes, including photosynthesis, transpiration, respiration, germination and flowering.

As temperature increases, photosynthesis, transpiration and respiration increase. However, if temperature becomes too high, extreme heat stress can occur in many plants even in the presence of adequate soil moisture. This can cause a reduction in plant stomatal conductance, which reduces plant transpiration rate, causing reductions in plant productivity and yield. Prolonged heat stress can cause irreversible damage.

If temperature is too low, stomata close and plant enzyme activity decreases. This then disrupts plant nutrient intake because plants secrete enzymes to digest surrounding materials for soil. Consequently, this can stunt growth or more severely cause them to die.

When relative humidity levels are too high or there is a lack of air circulation, the transpiration process is affected as well as the plant's ability to draw nutrients from the soil. When this occurs for a prolonged period, the plant eventually rots. High humidity can also cause fungal disease, root rot, and powdery mildew which can leach nutrients from the plant and eventually kill it if left untreated. Any plants intended for consumption should be disposed of if powdery mildew or mold occurs during the flowering phase.

The drier or the hotter the air temperature, the faster the transpiration rate from the plant. However, the moisture deficit and transpiration rate are not directly related. This means that in very dry air, the increased rate of transpiration can only go so high in the plant and then it begins to wilt. Low humidity in the grow environment can also cause stunted growth, leaf curl, and even increased chances of spider mite infestation.

It's critical to know the ideal environmental conditions for your specific plant so that you know what range to target for getting the best possible results.

In simple terms, think about climate control and how it applies in a residence. Insulation built into a house's exterior walls and attic helps to block heat from entering the structure in the summer and holds heat in during the winter. Combined with the house's heating and cooling appliances, this results in a cooler environment in the summer and warmer in the winter.

Grozeebo Pro's insulation works in a similar way. However, all Grozeebo grow tents also have double-sided cinch ports which allow for critical air exchange, filtration, ducting, etc. Unlike living areas in a house, much of the space inside of a grow tent is occupied by plants, so controlling the environment involves more than just heating and cooling.

The insulation in Grozeebo Pro will not cool or heat the enclosure. In other grow tents with no insulation, temperature is determined by the air temperature of the room where the grow tent is located, temperature of the air being pulled into the grow tent, heat produced by lights, pumps, and other equipment inside the tent, and how quickly the air is exchanged. Grozeebo Pro's insulation makes the air temperature of the surrounding area less of a factor to overcome as it creates better isolation between the environments outside and inside the enclosure. If you do determine that air conditioning or heating is needed, Grozeebo Pro will do a better job of holding the desired temperature than any other grow tent, saving energy consumption and a lot of headaches.

If you're planning on growing in a non-climated controlled, unfinished, and/or non-insualted indoor environment such as a garage, basement, shed, attic, etc. Grozeebo Pro is a worthy investment.

If you're planning on growing in a climate-controlled indoor environment such as a bedroom, living room, den, office, insulation may not be necessary. In rooms where the temperature can reliably remain within 5-10 degrees of your desired temperature range inside the grow tent, Grozeebo Slim could be a good solution. It has all the same feautures of Grozeebo Pro, only without the insulation.

Keep in mind that you can always start with a Grozeebo Slim and easily upgrade to Grozeebo Pro panels later, or vice versa. Both models use the same framing and mounting strips.
