As @mysticepipedon says, it all depends. My grow area is in my basement mechanical room. My basement is 3/4's finished and heated. All I had to do is install a tee and close the vent into my family room. I went from average temps in the low 60's to near 70 during lights off. I have my house thermostat set at 70 degrees 24/7.I recommend summer.
But really, you know what the answer is: You have to insulate and heat the area. Not knowing anything about your grow area, that could mean walling off a small part of the basement for the grow and just heating that. It could also mean heating the whole basement — can't tell from here.
It's very difficult to condition the air inside the tent. If you still feel you must, look at oil filled radiator style space heaters. Something like this:My tent is insulated from the cement foundation with 1 inch foam. I’m really looking for in tent heating recommendations. I’ve got room for a heater but not sure what to get for a heater.
If there is a space heater you trust not to burn the place down, go for it.My tent is insulated from the cement foundation with 1 inch foam. I’m really looking for in tent heating recommendations. I’ve got room for a heater but not sure what to get for a heater.
I prefer not to use a space heater at all. Expensive to run and potentially dangerous as both a shock and fire hazard. Tent material is probably fire retardant but I'm sure it will still burn.If there is a space heater you trust not to burn the place down, go for it.
I don't know how flammable tent material is. I would rather have a space heater on a surface that I know will not melt or catch fire. Best of luck.
I used a very similar oscillating heater for a season. It didn't last through the second. I usually don't purchase extended warranties but if this is the route you go, it might make sense to purchase one.Thanks oldmangrower, I’m going to have to check out that heater to see if it can work!
I think most Tents are ok with Heat I have mine next to Ventless Gas Fireplace and it has been fine.If there is a space heater you trust not to burn the place down, go for it.
