Setting Up Grow Spaces

Setting Up Grow Spaces

A grow space in Meridian represents your physical growing area — a tent, a room, a closet, a greenhouse, or anything else. It's where your plants live and where environment data gets associated.

Creating a space

  1. Tap Spaces in the sidebar
  2. Tap New Space
  3. Enter the basics:
    • Name — whatever you want to call it ("4x4 Tent", "Garage Room", "Kitchen Herbs")
    • Dimensions — length, width, height in feet or meters
    • Type — tent, room, closet, greenhouse, etc.

Adding equipment

After creating your space, add the equipment that lives in it:

  1. From your space page, tap Equipment tab
  2. Tap Add Equipment
  3. Search our database of 150+ verified products, or add a custom item
  4. The equipment you add here feeds into the AI's recommendations

When you ask the AI a question about a plant in this space, it knows what light you're running, what fan you have, and what controller is managing your environment. This makes its answers much more specific.

Setting environment targets

Environment targets tell Meridian (and the AI) what conditions you're aiming for:

If you connect sensors, Meridian compares your actual readings against these targets and flags when things drift out of range.

Assigning plants to spaces

When creating a new plant, you'll pick which space it lives in. You can also move plants between spaces from the plant detail page.

All environment data from connected sensors flows through the space — every plant in that space shares the same environment readings.

Multiple spaces

Growing in more than one area? Create a space for each. Each space has its own equipment, targets, sensors, and plants. The dashboard shows all spaces at a glance.
