Basement grow room

Bluntboyproducts · Feb 9, 2016

Hi guys,

So I've been working on my basement grow. I got 350 sq ft to work with. I guess I'm here to see if you guys can help me out with pointers and things. I will be updating with pictures as I progres . My issue right now after I finish the ceiling is what to do with the floor. Any ideas would be a big help. Thanks in advance.

i'd start here
https://www.rollitup.org/f/grow-room-design-setup.66/
i'd definitely go with something other than dirt for the floor

maybe a series of grow tents?

You mean after a few metric shit tons of concrete right?

Just throw together a floor out 2X4 s and some plywood frame it in. Start sectioning it off into 2 rooms veg room flower room .. if your trying to get that whole basement fixed.. shit that's going to cost good amount for lumber and stuff but we'll worth it after finished. If not build single room for now start veging in to then build from there lots of potential with that..

Of course you would start with some plastic over everything then frame everything.. get it all tight and caulked etc. ..

Man that's my biggest concern. My height is at 6"2 I gotta dig about 16' to make height for pallet . I might just lay down 2x4s n sheet it with plywood..

That's kind of what I was thinking too, I'm about to finish off the walls, clear A foot of dirt, even out the surface and take another pic. Let me know what you think.

Be careful digging down 16", you don't want to mess with your foundation.

Thanks just realized that. I just leveled out the ground. Going to put plastic down, add 4x4s around, then add 3/4 ply wood on top followed some other plastic.. Jeesh.. Idk what do you guys think?

If something's worth doing, it's worth doing well. This is true especially for growing. Put the time, money and energy into it now and save yourself the headaches and regrets later. Plus, when it's all done you will feel immensely proud of yourself.
