Air filtration kits are a great way to have a quick and easy air filtration system, without having to select separate parts and make sure that they are compatible with each other. You simply just chose which one suites your growing room and purchase it, without having to worry about anything else. Hydroponic ducting is an important part in setting up your grow room, and ensuring that the kit is selected by a professional can take the stress off your back.

At Green Spirit Hydroponics, we like to provide an all-round service offering you every little thing you might need to set up your first grow room, or simply to expand. That's why we provide some of what we feel are the necessary pieces of equipment and tools needed for a hydroponic garden. From duct tape to seal up any unwanted holes, to ducting piping aids.

Hydroponic Odour Control

Ona have created a collection of different tools used to neutralise smells from your growing room or even around your house. They are fully environmentally friendly, and do not simply mask the smells like many other products do. Their products are specially designed to eliminate odours right out of the air, meaning no nasty smells in your growing room.

Ozone generators are a great way of neutralising the smell that can be produced when operating an indoor grow room. Green Spirit Hydroponics has a large collection of different types of ozone generators to choose from, depending on how big your growing room is.

Propagation Lights for Hydroponics

When hydroponic plants are started off from seeds or cuttings, it is recommended that propagation lights be used to help them grow. These propagation grow lights simulate the sunlight that might not be easily accessed by the plants due to the fact that they are being grown indoors. There are plant lights that can give off light in the blue or red spectrums.

A plant propagation light should supply light in the blue spectrum in order to help the plants grow leaves that are bigger and stems that are thicker, which will help with photosynthesis. The red spectrum lighting is more for the stages in plant growth where flowers and fruit are developing. If high temperatures in the grow room or environment are a problem, a propagation growing light might add to the problem and cause damage to the young plants. To solve this problem, air cooled lighting can be used. This type of lighting requires the use of an extractor fan to cool the air.

Hydroponic Propagators

Many people choose to use hydroponic propagators to help their seeds or plant cuttings through the initial growth stages. There are commercially produced propagation kits available wherever hydroponic equipment is sold. They come with everything that is needed for proper root growth, but sometimes they can be out of the budget of individuals that are growing vegetable or flowering plants in their home for their own use. With a search on the internet, these people can easily find simple to follow instructions for building their own plant propagators with many parts that can be purchased at pet stores or garden shops.
