So I am working on building a room, so far i have built a room out of pvc pipe. It is 4ft long, 3 feet deep, and 5 feet tall. I am having a bit of trouble hanging the poly.

My heavy duty staple gun will not go through the pvc, what would be the best way to hang the poly? Velcro? Amy ideas appreciated.
 
no a staple gun will go through any poly. when i hang 6 mil i use pieces of cardboard (one inch squares) and staple that to the poly and to the wall because otherwise the poly will tear. buy yourself a new staplegun and a cardboard box.
 
oh man, nevermind. it wont go through the pvc!! ok let me think.


im gonna say glue. maybe gorilla glue or lots of super glue? im not sure ill think some more.

p.s im not suggesting you glue the poly to the pvc but wrap it around the pvc and glue the poly to poly. ya know what i mean right?
 
Use duct tape to hold it while you get it tight and square, then use screws thru cardboard drywall shims and into the tube.
 
Ya, @Angel. I would use screws to and the LARGER and FLATTER the head the better some screws come in a shap like so \_/ dn't get those FLAT! ___

2x4 framework would be much easier to work with and fairly inexpensive as well.

Yeah I just used some tape to hold it in place, then used card board and screws. Hard stuff is done, all I have to do is hang the light and carbon filter. Very excited, first grand daddy purp grow!
 
Well I got it from a buddy moving out of state, for free. I originally had no where to take it so i just planted it outside. Obviously its super late in the season for that. So i figured I would let it go as long as possible and hopefully get a little bit out of it. But it is a female now about a week and a half into flowering. Fortunately I now have somewhere to take it indoor. But it is going to be by itself under a 400w HPS. I do have some foxfarm nutrients left from previous grows I can use on it, and it will also be in foxfarm soil. Very excited to see how this turns out.
