Grow Tents Malta
A grow tent is basically an enclosure which allows you to provide an ideal environment in which to grow your plants. The tents we provide in Malta are constructed using a sturdy metal frame which is powder coated, not just sprayed. Powder coating is a much stronger protective layer than paint. The frame of your grow tent needs to support heavy equipment such as light fixtures and fans, a sturdy steel frame is very important.
The metal frame is then covered in a strong thick fabric which is 99% reflective, its reflective properties ensure the plants get an even amount of light from the overhead lite source.
