im working in an approx. a 10x30 foot insulated building but it has no heat. and it gets down to the 30's pretty often at night outside in winter. i thought the tent might be a good way of holding in heat and have a closed environment. anyway i could close off a section of the room?

The tents aren't insulated and will hold no heat while the lights aren't on. If the building
is too cold in the off cycle, the tents will be as well.. Another problem with the tents
is the high humidity. Flowering in a tent is very hard, low ceilings, high humidity, tough to cool.
There's a lot of factors which dictate this. What are you growing in? Drain to waste? Recirculating system?

i will be hand watering don't expect to have to deal withmuch runoff ill have plastic plates underneath pots to catch excess water.

so if i don't go with a tent how would i section of part of this building, which is an insulated garage that sits alone from house, so that it is light tight and i can still access the other part of the room during lights off without interrupting them?

Metal Studs from home depot, I built a nice simple "wall" at my warehouse to section off
my veg room. They go together like an erector set, but on an industrial scale. Cost about
200.

so you then put dry wall up? how do you access your room? some kind of door? i will try to give you a rough sketch of what im working with if i can upload it.

durbanmistyman · Nov 14, 2010

heres is my sketch had to put it in doc format only way it would except it so you may have to open doc to see sketch

Where the ladder is in the first construction pic is where you can see the door frame
I made.

Once the dry wall is put up I used Velcro tape and did a cut out of the black/white polyethylene
which fit the door and made a plastic door. Just peel it open.

Just realized I had written Polyurethane, not Polyethylene. I confuse the two frequently. But ya
black white Panda Poly is where its at.

Ya she is really pretty, especially in person. She is about 2 feet tall, expecting about 2-3 ounces off her?

But she was vegged for like 5 weeks.

Clone. Nope, this Bubba is of OG background, with relation to Chem Dog.

Bred for the smell and taste of a Chem with the growth and appearance
of a Kush, they did a sick job, it reeks like a diesel.

durbanmistyman · Nov 17, 2010
