What is environmental control?

The environment in the grow room is probably the single most important issue that you need to control. It is a simple fact that you need light, air, food and water to grow any plant, but the way you manage these systems will make a massive difference to what you ultimately yield, both in terms of quality and quantity. It is these systems that make up the environment in which your plant will be nourished and hopefully thrive, if you get them right at least!

Some of the remedies to environmental control issues are very simple and should always be the first things you consider before spending vast sums of money on introducing external control systems.  However, some of the things that Mother Nature throws at the grower can not be avoided or managed without investment in both the resources and the time required in order to resolve the problems you will face along the way.
