I've seen you kicking about here for awhile but never checked anything you had going on out I've always peiced less than ideal grow areas together that's about to change soon I'm not as carpenter inclined as you are but I'm getting the general idea wherever you take this you've done a good job I quit doing 4x4 Scrog using a single doorway because it's too hard to reach everything to train any way carry on & hopefully I can learn a thing or 2 also that's some good looking beer! like the pup too I have 2 dogs myself for the most part they're better than people
Love scrog but hate having to get on the ground and wiggle around buckets lol. That and previous environments I grew in were less than ideal. Figured a fresh start was the way to go.
I had a little bit of room in my last Run but still a pain in the ass.

I finally started using 4" square in my Scrog & once they start growing good I would bend over & tie them to the wire with jute twine I don't snap near as many branches that way I'm looking forward to overhauling my grows from the ground up to fit my style which lately is going towards waterfarms & single plant grows in a 3x3 room I've got some good ideas from your project here & your idea of solar/led could really be cutting edge especially if you could have a battery bank for storage & possibly some sort of inverter & or series paralell switches in theory you could power it off the grid yeah I'm just rambling but I've finally retired & moved to the hills & trying some of my ideas this is a pic of my homemade waterfarm/ dwc with an air pump driven dripper I'm 12 days in & getting good growth I'm sure I'm gonna learn something useful from your threadIMG_1363.JPG

I'm just finishing up my first grow. Turned out a lot better than I expected. But like you I wanna step my game up again. It will be laughable in comparison to your work here. I've made one of 4 scrog separates to fit in my tent. It's only a 4x4ft but I'm only growing for the smoke. Still need to put a base board on this one to hold the pot for full unit transport. Save my knees a bit ha. Be keeping an eye on your work mate top quality DSC_0418.JPG  started this butcher run under 2 40w CFLs in an ikea wardrobe. Keep trying every way possible to better it. The growing and planning is way more addictive than the smoking DSC_0497.JPG

Nice net setup. It'll be nice and easy to move those around the tent with out breaking anything!

@horribleherk Congrats on the Retirement!!!
I was a concrete truck driver so my work was all construction related & just from some of your post & your skills at putting your room together as well as being rained out kinda makes me think our occupation might of been similar still getting used to not working kinda miss it sometimes but spring is here & I see some fishing on the horizon now that one of the wettest winters is behind me & hopefully I can stop having to fight this p/m so much

PM is more so do to with temperature swings and R/h then just R/h. I read a great paper on it a few years back that really helped me to understand mitigation in my rooms. Let me dig around for it this evening and get ya a link.
Yes, I've been in a lot of different construction Gigs. Great to grab the skills if someone is willing to teach them. :eyesmoke::D

that's pretty interesting I grew up around a lot of grape vineyards old timers planted a rose at the end of every row & when the rose leaves got black spots on them they would put the sulphuric on because they knew the grapes were soon to follow my first 3 grows here didn't get it last December the rain hit hard fortunately the pm wasn't bad but if unchecked it will take over I'm real close to some of the areas where some of those studies were done thanks for the info

That was the plan. It's sturdy enough to jump on. I have maybe a ft or 2 of floorspace outside my tent before I'm dancing on the ceiling. And I'm always tripping over shit so safety first. For the plants that is ha

I went back & studied that a little more in depth & it gives me a whole lot better understanding of the mold once again thank you

Great work man. No door headers? I know they aren't needed but what if you wanted to hang the Miss from a door swing ;) lol.

Subbed up.
She lucked out this build. It wasn't tall enough for a header haha. Guess I could always just king stud it up for a solid header if she mouths off about a swing :hump:

Glad you took what I said as humor :)

Excellent work though.

many thanks man!, I just started reading your shed journal. And as you say nothing is perfect in your shed. The same applies for these rooms :wall: I've just figured out over the years on how to hide the :eyesmoke:mistakes
