Mauritius Growing Tips

🌡️

Placement: Keep tent away from direct sunlight windows. Our tropical climate means external heat can affect tent temps.

💨

Ventilation: Essential in Mauritius. Run inline fan 24/7 during hot months to manage humidity and heat.

🌀

Cyclone Season: Indoor tents protect your plants from Jan-Mar storms. Secure tent during high winds.

🔌

Power: Use surge protector. Consider UPS for light timers during power cuts.

The Science Behind Controlled Environment Growing

Light (Photosynthesis)

Plants convert light energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis. LED grow lights provide the optimal spectrum (400-700nm PAR range) that plants need.

Optimal DLI (Daily Light Integral):

• Leafy greens: 12-16 mol/m²/day
• Herbs: 14-18 mol/m²/day
• Fruiting plants: 20-40 mol/m²/day

Air Circulation

Proper ventilation removes heat, controls humidity, and delivers fresh CO₂ for photosynthesis while strengthening stems through gentle movement.

Target Air Exchange:

• Complete air change every 1-3 minutes
• CO₂ levels: 400-1200 ppm
• Gentle breeze strengthens plants

Temperature Control

Temperature affects enzyme activity, nutrient uptake, and transpiration. A controlled environment ensures optimal metabolic function.

Ideal Temperature Ranges:

• Day: 22-28°C (72-82°F)
• Night: 18-22°C (64-72°F)
• 5-10°C drop at night optimal

Humidity & VPD

Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) is the difference between moisture in the air and moisture in the plant, driving transpiration and nutrient uptake.

Target Humidity Levels:

• Seedlings: 65-80% RH
• Vegetative: 55-70% RH
• Flowering: 40-55% RH
