Custom grow room in attic
Whats up fellow stoners! Hope everyone is doing great! I am super stoked right now b/c I have completed my room build and setup! I built a 5x5xangled7' box in my attic. I framed out the box using the existing trusses so the box is angled to about 12" wide at the very top! I framed the entire box using 2x4 and 5/16 board as my outer walls! I then insulated the inside with r60 and finished the insides with sheetrock. I then added panda film on the walls. I will be growing 6 plants in soil with an automated drip system for watering! I will be using an air-cooled 400 watt HPS with a 6" inline fan and 6" filter attached so the setup will go filter-duct-aircooled hood-duct-fan-duct to outside grow box up to ridged vent. I will be using a active exhaust/passive intake ventilation setup. I have ran 2 6" ducts to my main hvac supply in the attic and tapped in. So I will have 1 6" passive intake at the bottom of the grow room on both sides of the grow box, so I will have a total of 12" of passive intakes which gives me a 1:2 ratio for intake to exhaust. I will be growing greenhouse seed white widow feminized for my 1st round. I will run my exhaust system 24/7 so I can draw in plenty of c02 and prevent backdraft of the odor into my home hvac system! If anyone have any questions/thoughts/or comments feel free to speak. We all learn from each other. I will post more later, kind of in a hurry at the moment!
