 Some tent gardeners claim to grow vegetables (or cannabis) entirely within a tent, but that didn't interest me.
-I chose a small 2'x2'x4' tent from Vivisun, which has space for standard germinating trays, heat mat, exhaust fan and "one plant." Because temperature in the garage often approached freezing I added a temperature and humidyty-controoled heater, which also connects with the nerve center.

 {{ :garden:infrastructure:growtent:02_img_6699.jpeg?direct&200|Smart Grow Tent}}The tent included an LED grow light, an intelligent hub for managing temperature and humidity. The sensor hub, called a "controller," connected to my home wi-fi network and allowed viewing and controlling of attached devices locally and even over the web.

-Lots of features appealed to me in addition to the ability to manage light and temperature for germinating seeds. Highlights are the LED grow lamp, which can be adjust in the app for color temperature and intensity. Needless all this appealed to the geeky side of my nature.

+All the control over the conditions in the tent lulled me into complacency about watering - I had to monitor moisture levels carefully and adjust regularly.
-Temperature - eventually added a heater - managed the relationship between humidity and temperature for a consistent environment.
