I’ve been using the Vivosun Grow Cam for a few days first with my grow tent and then with my hydroponics tower, and it works really well. The video quality is clear, and I can see my plants in great detail, even at night. Setting it up was simple, and the app is easy to use for checking in on everything. I really like the time lapse feature—it’s fun to see how much my plants grow over time. This is what I wanted this for. I have been wondering how quickly (or if) my plants were growing. The camera also sends me alerts through the app, which is helpful for peace of mind. I use a microSD card for recording, and it saves everything smoothly. The different mounting options made it easy to find the right spot in my setup. Overall, I have had any trouble with the connectivity. Vivosun makes high quality gardening and hydroponics supplies, and it is worth the money due to the durable--not lightweight--materials. Read more
Absolutely love this lil grow cam! Sharp picture, time lapse function, and it clips easily to tent poles. My only gripe is that when using multiple cameras, you're required to exit viewing one camera and switch to the next. My Tapo cameras switch seamlessly between streams from tent to tent. Didn't take away and stars for that but I figured it's worth mentioning. Read more
Due to the small size of the housing, the wifi antenna's size is limited. The aluminized tent does not help in this regard. Were the tent not located in a metal building 25 feet out in the yard, this would not be a problem, and is certainly not Vivosun's fault. The Image is excellent, and it does reconnect automatically and is useful 80% of the time. I have covered the IR and indicator lights to prevent any chance of light pollution. Since I have no desire to look in the middle of the photoperiod night, this is not a detraction. The supplied mount is sturdy and easy to use. Read more
My first time I thought maybe the signal to my greenhouse was too far, I added an AP and made sure 2.4mhz was supported. The second time I forced my router to 2.4mhz and 10 inches from the router, it would still not connect. Personally, I think this is a POS. 2 separate units, neither will connect via BT, neither will connect via Wi-Fi, and I am tired of trying to make an inferior product work. I can say I have tried 4 of Vivosuns products, so far only the humidifier works, and initially it was woefully underserved, The h19 is a great unit, wish the rest of vivosuns products were the same.

This is my second one. No issues with the first one but the glue that holds the magnet to the part that clips onto the tent pole didn’t hold on this one. Camera fell. Thankfully it didn’t break. Used super glue to fix it. I like the visibility into the tents. The time lapse works very well. Very easy to set up. You can download it at any point. Pretty cool. Night vision works well also. What I don’t like is that even if I change the advanced settings so the VIVOSUN logo doesn’t display, it ALWAYS comes back on, maybe immediately after closing the app. This isn’t cool. Definitely worth the money but would be better without the logo always being in view. Read more
The media could not be loaded. I love the Grow Cam from VIVOSUN! This product functions well, especially being on the middle to low end scale of how pricy these cameras can be! I am using it to monitor my plants and will eventually be making a time lapse booth with this camera as the most important feature. My dogs wiped out my instruction manual (I know, cliche). Even with that happening, the camera was very prompt in making itself known on the VIVOSUN app, and connecting quickly. I have not used nor tried to use the camera for audio, therefore will not speak on behalf of the sound quality not talk ability, may update as growing progresses. The picture quality is very present with this camera, while it’s no doubt lower than some, it is much higher than many models on the market. Many features including automatic night vision, time lapse, and audio are available, if you own other products from VIVOSUN this camera pairs well with anything else on their exciting store!

The image quality is like an android phone from 2011. Civil war re-enactment quality level. I have no idea how someone made a webcam so bad in the year 2025. At least it's cheap, it might work for security but you're definitely not using this camera for any type of critical or detailed observation. 1440p resolution is good enough but the sensor on this thing is trash.
