HOMEbox Ambient R80S | Propagation Grow Tent 80x60x70cm
Quick Answer
- 80x60x70cm compact footprint, purpose-built for the first two weeks of a plant's life specifically.
- German-engineered construction, built to eliminate the humidity and light leak variables clones fail from.
- Best suited to propagation and cloning stages, not a full veg-to-flower cycle tent.
- Ships fast from our Australian warehouse.
The Dedicated Propagation Environment for Consistent Cloning Results
Most failed clones and slow seedlings come down to one thing: an uncontrolled environment. Fluctuating humidity, light leaks, and poor airflow during the first two weeks of a plant's life set the ceiling for everything that follows.
The HOMEbox Ambient R80S is built specifically to eliminate those variables. At 80x60x70cm, it's a compact, purpose-engineered propagation tent that gives your cuttings and seedlings the stable microclimate they need to root fast, develop uniformly, and hit the vegetative stage ready to perform.
Why the R80S Suits Propagation Specifically
- PAR+ Super Reflective Interior. Maximises usable light from low-wattage CFL and LED propagation lighting, improving early-stage photosynthesis without heat stress.
- Total Lightproof Construction. Blackout zippers with no velcro gaps, no light leaks disrupting growth cycles or stressing sensitive cuttings.
- Precision Airflow Control. Multiple ducting ports (100mm rear, 125mm side, 160mm roof) plus 2x 125mm OmniFlow passive vents give you full control over humidity and temperature without over-ventilating.
- Compact Stackable Design. Sits above a standard tent to share ventilation infrastructure, saving space in a multi-stage grow setup.
- MicroMesh Insect Screens. Keeps pests out of your most vulnerable plants without restricting airflow.
- German-Engineered Build Quality. 16mm reinforced metal frame, durable canvas shell, and removable water-resistant base tray.

What This Tent Solves
Slow or failed clone rooting, inconsistent seedling development, humidity that's impossible to dial in, or simply not having space dedicated to propagation. The R80S isn't a scaled-down flowering tent, it's a propagation tool built from the ground up for the specific demands of early plant development.
Ideal Setup
- Pair with a low-wattage LED or CFL propagation light (18-24hr photoperiod)
- Use a small clip fan on the lowest setting for stem strengthening
- Add a humidity dome or heat mat in cold climates to accelerate rooting
- Stack above your main flowering tent to share a single inline fan via a Y-splitter
Frequently Bought Together
- The "Clone Ready" Setup: R80S + Azos® Nitrogen Bacteria + Mykos® Mycorrhizae, a biological foundation for fast-striking, vigorous clones.
- The "Propagation Stack": R80S + Dutch Fest Root Mass Enhancer, controlled environment plus root stimulation for better strike rates.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size grow tent do I need?
The HOMEbox Ambient R80S gives you 0.48m² at 80x60cm, sized specifically for propagation rather than full-cycle growing. As a general guide, this tent suits a tray of clones or seedlings, while a 60x60cm or larger tent is needed once you move plants into vegetative and flowering stages.
Is the R80S compatible with my grow light and fan?
The R80S features multiple ducting ports in standard sizes (100mm, 125mm, and 160mm) to fit small inline fans, with fabric-sealed cable entry for low-wattage LED or CFL propagation lights. It's not intended for HPS/MH fixtures given the compact size and propagation-specific purpose.
How difficult is the R80S to assemble?
The R80S includes a 16mm metal frame with tool-free push-fit connectors and a full-coverage zip-on canvas. Most growers complete assembly in 15 to 20 minutes given the compact size.
How do I clean and maintain the R80S?
Wipe down the interior reflective lining with a damp cloth between propagation cycles. Zip openings can be lubricated with a small amount of beeswax or candle wax if they become stiff. Store folded when not in use to extend the fabric's lifespan.
Does the R80S ship fast within Australia?
Yes, the R80S ships from our Australian warehouse with fast tracked delivery to all states and territories. Most orders to VIC, NSW, QLD, SA, and ACT arrive within 2 to 5 business days. WA, NT, and TAS orders typically arrive within 5 to 12 business days.
