New grower, new set up, knew nothing

Hey guys, as title suggests I’m an amateur and avid lover of the devils lettuce.
I grew 3 yields about 10 years ago in a terrible set up with worse knowledge. Still managed to smoke it and enjoyed the process so much I hoped I could eventually try it again.
Alas here we are, unfortunately I’m not flush with cash but have managed to pull together a decent kit regardless I think/hope.
I hope to learn, love and toke so I encourage the chats and tips especially.

As the gear is arriving within 2 weeks I have a steel shed to build to house my grow operation. I will post pics and updates throughout. Any questions feel free to throw em out there. I’m hungry for knowledge

Hey Jorro that was one my main concerns as my garage still hasnt exterior plaster so I wanted a room within it so I went for steel shed option. I’m Irish so it’s not the sweetest climate. Rain n cold mostly

all insulation gear arriving tomorrow so by time I’m finished she’s I hope my grow gear arrives.
All I need now soil and seed... I’m thinking a premise soil light mix and some laughing Buddha photos and an indica strain photo too. I have 6x 11litre airports but I’m thinkin 4 will fill up that tent?

My buddy built his first room recently, in a detached garage. His biggest problem in my opinion is his electric cube heater has a shitty thermostat.

It likes to turn on at 65f and turn off at 85f.

My point is; watch for hot/cold spots. And beware of mold, especially if you get weird condensation issues.

If course, summer heat will bring new challenges. We're trying to plot for affordable air conditioning, as well as increasing air exchange during the early morning hours.

Mould And condensation I’m worried about but hoping 2inch insulation will combat it with only the 4 vents on the shed as my fresh air.(I know I won’t be airtight tho)
