has anyone checked out these pvc sheds?
are they good to grow in?
will the plastic leak anything to harm the plants like in some manufactured grow tents?

does anyone have experience or knowledge of these "outdoor pvc shed"s??

thanks.

here is a nice one, what do you think??:

Think it would be difficult to cut and size for ventilation?

You should see what $150 in lumber can build you from home depot..

Of course you have to know how to frame walls....use power tools, engineer,

As long as you keep the major essentials such as nutrients, air, and light, any shelter should do. As ganjagoddes said, get a bunch of 2x4's frame your self a 10x5x7 shelter... board it up with plywood and get some siding and nail it on. I doubt it will cost more than 100 bucks. If you need some drawings PM me i can do a quick render for you, im a current arch student maybe i can also get a u quick estimate of what it would cost you

JUST REMEMBER a 2x4 isnt 2 inches by 4 inches it 1.5 inches by 3.5 inches!!!

Learned that the hard way...

that thing would glow at night, unless you put about 30 coats of black paint on the out side
