Problem with panda film not staying to the wall.

I`m making a closet grow room out of pandafilm. I tapped up the walls, rather well and found the corners already falling off. Without driving nails and washers in the wall is there any other way of getting the plastic to hang on the walls?

if you want it on perm little cardboard squares and a staple gun...

velcro strips work thats what i use or you can get some double sided heavy duty 3m tape

Use a couple few shower curtain rods. They screw to tighten. Just use them to press the film to the wall.

I think I've got it good to go know. I need to find a way to hang the light and put in a roof and front with entrance...

The cabinet itself has 2 shelves about 5' 1/2 feet up on each side. I`m thinking of laying 2 2x4s across the bottom one. And using the back one to hang the light. Then through a sheet over them for the roof, tape it tight and use 2 sheets overlapping for the front door.

use a staple gun (small holes in the wall tho) or u can pick up sum insulation board from home depot or wherever and staple, glue, tape etc, the panda film to the insulation board and stick it in the room. downside is u lose about an inch of each wall. (the insulation board can be cut to ur room size) this mite help with ur climate control as well. u dont need to go any higher then the lights with the panda film either. the other suggestions above are good as well. this was just another option but prob more costly then anything. hope shit works out! -boom

Insulation would kill me, I`m going to be looking at a way to lower the head atm.

I got the walls on fine, just having a problem thinking about hanging the lights and creating a ceiling...

Can you get cut wood at place like Home Depot? I really don't have an option to cut the wood here. Need to find either a self tapping scew or bit, I can't get the eye hooks in the hard wood.

you can get a burlap sack / potato sack and make strips place on top of the plastic and staple in you can also use duct tape

Whats with the burlap sacks? Just a way for them to hang better on the wall?

Anyways, I got the grow room setup. Found an awesome way to hang the ceiling and front door. Just did an overlap for the door and used double layer Velcro down the front. No light leaks. Now I just need to try out the heat, and make sure my ballast and light still works.
