  1. Enter the number of plants you plan to grow and select the plant size category (1=Small herbs, 2=Medium tomatoes/peppers, 3=Large vines).
  2. Select your training method: none, LST (low-stress training), or SCROG — canopy training requires a wider tent footprint.
  3. Review the recommended Tent Width (ft), Tent Length (ft), and Tent Height (ft).
  4. Use the Sq Ft per Plant figure to verify adequate spacing before purchasing your tent.
