This journey started with a trip to Menards and a bunch of bagseed from some decent Minnesota outdoor homegrown.
While at Menards (lowes, HD, etc....) I see a seedling tray and say to the wife it would be cool to sprout some seeds I have and then plant them in the corn. We pick up the tray she says grab a greenhouse one with a cover. I take some nice calico beans I have and put them in a bag with some paper napkins. I forget them for a week. I open the bag to see that about 9 have sprouted and that I need to plant them in the seed starters. Did that. Left the other seads soak in the napkin for a fem more days and then I have 7 more. At walmart the wife says we should pick up a light so we get the 2ft $10 plant FL put it on the lil girls and watch it do its thing.
The seedlings show their first full leaves after what might have been a week or so. Not sure about much befort I built the closet. I didn't really pay much attention to them.
Looking for lights and decide to go with the closet cultivator kit. Lots of cool shit and didnt have a efing clue what any of it was for. I sat on the kit for about 2 weeks until I got off my ass to do something about it.
Went to HD to do some business and decided to buy some 2x4s 12 of them, picked up a bathroom exhaust fan 25' of hose and went to the basement with the screwgun. I have a cold basement and the room I wanted to use was full of shit and needed to be emptied which may have causes some addition to my procrastination. back to the closet.
Framed it up decided that the scraps of plywood were not going great as walls since they had gotten wet over the winter, called the lumber yard and had some osb delivered.
Cold room meant that I wanted insulation
wraped my frame with 5 mil back plastic and stuck 3.5" insulation between plastic and osb. cut a hole for the fan and cut a hole for fresh air. decided that I wanted mother room so i put a floor and insluated that as well. My mother area is 28"x48"x32" Right now there is no mother yet so there are no lights I am using the area to Germinate.
My grow room is 28*48*60 I cover everything in mylar and added a vent to the floor to exhaust my mother room.
So far I have been trying to dial the room in as far as Humidity and temp go and I am not having much luck.
Any ways Picts..... Add what you will to my log
Thank you

The costs of the this and that shit you buy along the way while your learning start to pile up.
