Hey guys how's it going I got a question to ask you guys my autos are outgoing my grow room so I was wondering do you guys know if the grow tents will hold heat cuz I bought a 5x5 tent and I was going to set it up in my shed outside in the back only thing is is it gets pretty cold outside so I was hoping that Kent would be able to hold the heat from the heater..
I ran out of room too when my son unexpectedly came back home. I put a tent outside on a covered patio and ran a 4” duct with an inline fan from my laundry room to it. Nights got to 30f and the tent stayed 63-65, 5-7 degrees below the house temp.

a good one will lke those lights get hot. 4yrs ago i grew in a tent with 2 600w led and 1 900w led in a 3x4 area if not for the hyper fan it would get hot as
Not outside. Without insulation, the lights may give you a 5-8 degree above ambient bump; but to work outside in those temps you'd need a warm air supply.
Im using one very small space heater in mine.Got the temp stable at 78 degrees.It got fricken cold all at once and ive got a heat pump for home heat.I may be a little cool but my seedlings are loving it.
The best way to heat it in my opinion will be wall mounted panel heater. They are safe to run 24/7.
You dont want dust in a heater to take fire and those heat fan things are not meant to run without being checked on.
Thats my fire safety advice
Edit: you will easier find the sweet spot with a panel heater.
Alternatively you could look for a small 200w greenhouse warmer. Those things work great for your purpose

No problem mate. Check out those greenhouse warmer. They exist both as a fan heater and as a heat coil covered that will provide heat. I guess that last option is the best for you, you might just want to heat inside of tent and not the rom. Good luck anyway
I used to grow, for years, in an insulated framed room in an uninsulated attic. The HID bulbs did all the heating and the fan was controlled by a thermostat. Not ideal, but plenty of weed ensued, nonetheless.
If the shed isn't much bigger than the tent, insulate the shed. Otherwise, I would sell the tent and frame a little room you can insulate.
If the bulb is your heat source, lights off during the day and lights on at night. I lived in the Carolinas, so it did not get terribly cold during the dark period. If your daytime temps are cold, you will need a heat source other than the light.
