Looks great. If you dont want to go through all that work I would put a wire shelving unit along the wall perpindicular closest to door for the veg. Enough room to squeeze through the door and can roll it out if needed. Will give more bloom room.

The door in the middle will give best use of square footage if you need/want veg. They should have separate environmental controls for optimal VPD for stage of growth.

Build a false ceiling as a seperate box outside the closet to exhaust into. Can put an air ionizer in there then passivelly exhaust out. Up is the best way to vent for odor control

VPD?

I wish I would have thought of the middle door at first.

I've been trying to figure out which side would be best for veg or bloom. The South is the outside wall so that would be cooler, for bloom.

My exhaust fan Vents to the outside through the buildings sewer vent. That was a lot of work.

Right now I'm trying to figure out air flow from north to south side. I'm guessing that veg side would need the fresher air from the floor level, more than flower side?

Right, definitely vent from the top.

On my last grow i had room in the middle for a walkway ended up over growing it. Had to crawl under the canopy lmao whole room almost solid canopy lol

Right, there isn't any way I'm going to be able to get around plants especially since I'm a big clodhopper. Just would end up beating up the plants.

I haven't done anything but over grow. Today I get to remove the ceiling so I can get more light height.

Must start flowering cycle sooner. Maybe at 6 weeks?

Wasted light is bad. bunch your plants together, a path in the middle is a sure waste on such a small production area. I'd much rather just leave some wriggle space around the side to be able to inspect all plants.

Yeah I got to use my space wisely. That's why I'm making separate veg and flower areas. I'm too big to wriggle around anything LOL.

Preventing Bleeding light into the flower area is going to be challenging. I think I only needed or on the flower side though.

I have some stink migrating. A vapor barrier on the ceiling should fix it. Abandoning my ceiling / light system to maximize height. Existing door interferes with a dedicated flower area.

It is working well, thankfully each grow is getting better. I underestimated how much planning / work it would be. I thought I'd have it more automated too.

When I made the door, I was more concerned about it being concealed. A new one would be a little more concealed but only have 4 foot clearance, have several other improvements and radical hinge design.

Great link - thanks.
