100x100 Grow Tents

Why choose a 1m² grow tent for your indoor crop?

If you are thinking about setting up your own indoor garden but don't want to turn your whole house into a jungle, the 100x100 grow tent is exactly what you need. This size is the gold standard for self-cultivation for a reason: it fits in almost any spare room, yet it offers enough surface area to pull a harvest that will keep your jars full for months.

Imagine having a controlled environment where you dictate the weather. These tents are designed to isolate your plants from the outside world, keeping odors in and pests out. Plus, with the high-quality Mylar interior lining, you ensure that every lumen from your lamp bounces right back onto your buds, increasing your yield without spending an extra dime on electricity. It is the perfect setup to start playing in the big leagues without the hassle of a massive industrial operation.

Capacity and configuration: How many plants fit in a 100x100 tent?

This is the million-dollar question. The versatility of a 1m² space allows you to play with different cultivation techniques depending on your style and patience. You aren't just buying a box; you are buying a strategy.

For a standard crop, the most balanced configuration is usually placing 9 plants in 11-liter planters. This gives each plant enough room to develop a solid root system and a nice canopy without overcrowding. If you prefer the SOG (Sea of Green) method to harvest faster, you could fit up to 16 smaller pots. On the flip side, if you are a fan of SCROG and want to grow monsters, 4 or 5 large pots will fill that screen in no time.

Quality details that make a difference in your harvest

Not all fabrics are created equal, and when you are dealing with powerful lights and sensitive photoperiods, quality matters. A cheap tent can be a nightmare of light leaks, which can stress your plants and even cause them to revegetate or turn hermaphrodite. You don't want that.

The models we select at Pevgrow, such as the renowned Mammoth grow tents or the sturdy Cultibox, feature heavy-duty canvas and reinforced zippers. This ensures total opacity (light tightness), which is crucial for the dark cycle. Furthermore, the structure bars are strong enough to support your filter, extractor, and lighting system without bending. It is about peace of mind: knowing that your equipment is safe and your plants are protected.

Lighting and ventilation: What do you need for this space?

A 100x100x200cm tent is a blank canvas, but you need the right tools to paint your masterpiece. For this specific area, lighting efficiency is key. A 600W HPS has been the classic choice, but it generates a lot of heat. Nowadays, many growers are switching to LEC lighting (315W is fantastic here) or high-performance LEDs (around 300W-400W) to maximize grams per watt while keeping temperatures in check.

If you don't want to complicate your life calculating extraction rates and matching components, you can always take a look at our complete indoor grow tent kits, which come with everything sized perfectly for this volume. But if you prefer to build it yourself, remember: controlling the environment is just as important as the genetics you choose.

Frequently Asked Questions about 100x100 Grow Tents

What is the best lighting for a 100x100 grow tent?

For a 1 square meter space, the most efficient options today are 300W-400W LED panels or 315W LEC lamps. You can also use a classic 400W or 600W HPS, but you will need a good extraction system to manage the heat, especially in summer.

How much can I harvest in a 1m² tent?

Yield depends on many factors (genetics, light, grower skill), but in a 100x100 tent with good equipment, you can expect between 300g and 500g of dry buds per harvest. Optimizing parameters like CO2 and using high-end LEDs can push these numbers even higher.

What size extractor fan do I need?

For a 100x100x200cm volume (2m³), you generally need an extractor capable of moving about 250 to 350 m³/h to ensure proper air exchange and keep humidity and temperature under control.

Is it difficult to assemble these tents?

Not at all. Most models are designed to be assembled by one person in less than 30 minutes without tools. The tubes click together, and the canvas slides over the structure like a glove.
