  4. Ok this is how far I have gotten. I know I have been taking forever updating but I have been busy building it in my spare time. But the roof is not put on yet I just put that sheet over the framing. And the other platform is gonna be the extension room where I will work on the plants. its 39 inches wide of usable floor space 6 feet tall and 8 feet long.

  5. Got the roof in , the side walls with mylar material, completely sealed inside an from the outside. Now I just need to cut the sheets of plywood for the siding for the small 4 x 4 attachment room an attach them to the framing an ill be done. Hopefully by this weekend. I'm gonna order the seeds soon some critical kush or Northern lights. Any recommendations on strong indicators with high yields in going for 3lbs in this space (7.5ft long x 3 ft wide x 6 feet tall) got 1000 watts in led light 3000k ,all 1k watts of those lights have IR an only 600 watts have the LG uv light which I read may or may not increase resin production so ill see because I'll grow all 1 strain an have the UV lights next to each other an the other 2 lights covering another plant to see if there is a difference.

  6. How are going to control the heat.
    I have serious issues trying to maintain my grow area.
     
  7. Look at my previous posts I put up a DIY air cooler from YouTube. The man has a 12 foot room qn he said it did not take long to cool it down an depending on how cold you want the air (more ice an water make it colder). So for a 6 x 3 x 6 shed ill be good. An also I had a 95 degree day just 2 days ago it was a good time to see how it performed an surprisingly well i could feel a temp difference from the hot ass air outside and then being in the shed it was cooler, those radium barriers really work
     
  8. Good and bad news. Bad news is I wont be using this shed and I spent 600 bucks on it all but the good news is im moving houses an now will move my grow to a garage. Of course this shed will be used for something maybe some blueberries and other fruits/vegetables. But with patience you guys will see me hook up that garage

  9. Quick update , just a long process with moving but I am still gonna make a grow journal.

    Also anyone got experience with buildasoil 3.0 oly mountain living organic soil? Was thinking of just buying that an then recharging it / innoculating it because its too long to wait for vermi compost an the whole process of building it from the start. So my idea is to buy that soil to just get started growing AND then start having my vermicompost an all the extra stuff for maintenance on the no till ready an sorted with the added benefit of having experience with the whe process. But again whats your thoughts on that mix. Seen a few videos an threads an seen nice buds in both quality an size but want to hear about it in 2020
