Secret Jardin Dark Propagator: The Grow Tent for Small Spaces

— Contributed by Rich Miller

Even before the stay-at-home measures, I’ve already been planting small herbs and vegetables in my apartment as a hobby, and because I love to use fresh herbs and veggies for cooking. So when the city went on lockdown, I had more time to focus on my babies.

I wasn’t using any grow tent, but my next-door neighbor, who was also growing plants, suggested that I use one for better harvests. He recommended the Dark Propagator from Secret Jardin in particular.

The Secret Jardin Dark Propagator from Champion LED was absolutely perfect. It is compact, and it fits in the small corner space I dedicated to my plants. Its size dimension is only 90L x 60D x 98H cm.

Aside from its perfect small apartment size, here are its other features:

  • Easy to assemble
  • Very lightweight
  • Very reflective mylar
  • Transverse venting windows system
  • Lightproof
  • Waterproof
  • Has a waterproof removable tray
  • Can be installed with TNEON or TLED for blooming and growing

The Secret Jardin Dark Propagator is an all-in-one propagation tent ideal for propagation, growing, and blooming plants. It comes with a cable port, a 100mm extraction port, and a light baffle.

I also like that it has a removable tray at the bottom to prevent getting my carpet soiled. And because it is made of 95% reflective mylar fabric, which is washable, by the way, light intensity increases and so, it heats up pretty quickly, perfect for my small plants. I use a four-inch fan when my LED grow lights are on.

The only downside is I found the two vents a bit too big for the tent’s size. Not really a problem, but it would have been better if they weren’t that huge. But overall, the Dark Propagator is a good investment for serious plant growers.

So yeah, I highly recommend Secret Jardin Dark Propagator if you have a small space and want to get better grow results. It can also be equipped with TNEON or TLED for blooming and growing. I got mine from Champion LED, so I suggest you check their site because they also sell the LED grow lights you’ll need for the grow tent.
