Grow room: setting up your indoor garden

Growing indoors does not have at all the same characteristics as growing outdoors, in fact it allows horticulturists to free themselves from the rules of mother nature and to better control the environment of their production.
Indoor cultivation and its advantages meet the essential needs of plants by offering horticulturists total control of light via horticultural lamps, air, water, temperature and protection against parasites; everything necessary to ensure good growth and flowering.

The indoor cultivation chamber

A good grow room starts with its location, then comes the equipment.
The best location for indoor growing is an unoccupied space, preferably in the basement. If the horticulturist has a house, this is the best location because it is easy to maintain a constant temperature throughout the year. What's more, a grow room is not the most aesthetic thing, for the sake of your decoration it can be placed in a discreet place in your home. If you live in an apartment, you should adapt and install your production in an isolated, non-traffic location.
For the sake of your indoor production, you must also take into account the surface area devoted to it as well as the light intensity required in order to be able to determine the number of horticultural lamps as well as the lighting power required.
To contain this indoor garden, horticulturists use growing chambers, also called Homeboxes. These products offer protection and optimal installation in order to accommodate your production, and to provide it with all the systems it needs for its growth and flowering.
Homebox, horticultural lamps, air extractor... So much equipment that will need to be assembled to optimize and carry out your indoor cultivation successfully.

LED horticultural lamps: growth, flowering and economy

Horticulturists know the importance of a suitable light source to obtain the best growth and flowering of their plant in order to increase their yield.
If natural light remains the reference for plants, indoor cultivation allows us to adapt or even optimize light exposure via specialized horticultural lighting. Current horticultural lighting allows horticulturists to control their production by controlling the different plant cycles.
There are a multitude of lighting solutions in the horticultural sector, we will focus on the LED lamp systems which best correspond to indoor gardens .
Modular and adaptable, LED lamps will provide the light intensity necessary for plants in order to optimize their growth cycle and flowering.
LED horticultural lamps are the result of advanced technology which circumvents the shortcomings of traditional horticultural lighting because the latter produce very little heat, making them less dangerous to handle and healthier for the plants, therefore the lamps have less cooling requirements, they therefore have much lower consumption than a traditional system.
LED lamps are well established today in the indoor growing market, these solutions meet the multiple needs of horticulturists and are equipped with quality standards, a guarantee of performance, power and safety.
