Choosing a VIVOSUN Grow Tent
The right
VIVOSUN Pro Series tent comes down to footprint and room ceiling height. Footprint determines plant count and matching light wattage; ceiling height determines whether the 6'6" standard fits or you need a compact 4-foot model. The Pro Series construction is 2000D Mylar lining over a steel frame, with observation windows and zippered tool-pocket walls on every model.
Tent Sizes and Plant Counts
Tent vs Tent Kit
Pro Series tents ship the tent and frame only. If you need the light, fan, filter, and ducting in one box, the
VIVOSUN grow tent kits ship everything pre-sized and matched. Standalone Pro Series tents make sense when you already own lighting and ventilation from a prior grow, or when you want the freedom to mix in non-VIVOSUN components like a specific LED brand you trust.
For plant-count reference across footprints, see the
plant-count guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size VIVOSUN tent for 4 plants?
The P448 Pro 4x4 fits 4 plants comfortably at standard 18-inch spacing. For larger plants under heavy training, a P558 Pro 5x5 gives more canopy room per plant. Below the P448, the P336 Pro 3x3 can fit 4 small plants but the canopy gets crowded fast.
Is the VIVOSUN Pro series Mylar 2000D?
Yes, all Pro Series tents use 2000D oxford-thread Mylar lining. The 2000D rating refers to the thread density in deniers; higher density gives better light containment and tear resistance over a multi-year service life. The original VIVOSUN tents (non-Pro) used 600D and 1680D fabric depending on the model.
What's the ceiling height needed for a 6'6" tent?
8'6" minimum room height for the standard 6'6" Pro Series tents. That leaves 12 inches above for inline fan and ducting plus 12 inches inside for the LED at proper hang distance. Standard 9-foot ceilings fit comfortably; 8-foot ceilings work but require compact ducting and a slim-profile inline fan.
Does VIVOSUN ship the frame and fabric together?
Yes, all Pro Series tents ship the steel frame, Mylar shell, and assembly hardware in a single box. The smallest tents fit in a box small enough for residential shipping; the 5x5 and 4x8 ship in larger boxes that require freight or a wider doorway for delivery.
How much weight can the VIVOSUN crossbars hold?
110 pounds per crossbar on Pro Series tents. That's more than enough for any LED light, carbon filter, and inline fan combination on a standard tent. The frame is 19mm steel tubing with reinforced corner connectors that have a higher load rating than older VIVOSUN models.
Is the 4x4 P448 big enough for an AW400?
Yes, the AW400 is sized specifically for the 4x4 footprint. The AW400 panel measures 22" x 22" and hangs at 18-24 inches above canopy in flower, which fits in the 6'6" P448 with room for plants and ducting clearance above the light.
