As long as you seal the walls so they are non porous and cleanable otherwise you can get mould

You're the construction guy.

I don't know why folks have told you to not use sheetrock. Possibly water damage? Bathroom sheetrock. The blue stuff.

Besides, white paint will seal the walls. Easy to wipe down with bleach.

As long as it is moisture board I wouldn't see a problem with it otherwise as stated above mold

Also a "construction guy" I am using drywall with white roof paint. That shit is water proof and designed to reflect sunlight. If money was no object I'd be doing drywall with a layer of 1/8" HDPE sheet over top caulked at the seams. Pressure wash room after every cycle.

That’s more what I was trying to do but no basement floor drain but looking on seeing if I can make that happen as well wanna keep as clean as possible figure all this will happen Over some time because like u said will be pricey
 
Preventative maintenance.

Spray the room from floor to ceiling with copper fungicide before sticking plants in the room. After the bleach rub down.

So bleach it and follow up with the copper.
 
Yeah everything being sterile and clean as possible main goal in all of this something that will last the long haul as long as taken care of
 
I clean my room about 2-5 days before using it. Everything I can do to ensure No Drama.

Bleach, copper, and Azamax. But the Azamax gets sprayed on the plant shelf, floor, and pots. Again, before the seeds have even popped.

Just use a wall frame and then use sheeting to separate the rooms against the frame. No need for an actual wall. Especially if it's just a separating wall.
